US stocks turn lower now- S+P 500 heads back towards 5,700

Well, as warned about here earlier this afternoon, there was no guarantee the higher opening for the US stock markets would be sustained and as you can see right now, all three major indexes have turned back down. The Dow Jones is now in the red and  the Nasdaq 100 and S+P 500, whilst still in the green, are both well off their earlier highs. That saw the S+P 500 index reopen today at 5,737.48 and then rise to a session high at 5,746.02. It has just now tracked back to the 5,700 handle. It is still in positive territory just now, but if the Dow keeps falling that might not last. The index is currently trading at 5,709
