THE MONDAY MORNING MARKETS
Dow Jones Industrial Average futures dipped more than 200 points, for a 8% decline. Futures on the S&P 500 slipped .6% while futures on the Nasdaq 100 were .1% lower.
The decreases came as investors digested the news that President Donald Trump's administration is considering whether to blacklist SMIC and CNOOC, which would "escalate tensions with China before President-elect Joe Biden takes over."
That said, the Dow is still tracking for its best month since 1987, with a nearly 13% gain. Last week the index reached 30,000. This month the S&P 500 increased 11.3% while the Nasdaq rose 11.9%.

PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE
Image Source: Getty Images Retirement is something we all look forward to. But there are still plenty of surprises out there. And those surprises usually come about when you learn what you don't know.
And unless you've saved for your retirement EXCLUSIVELY using Roth accounts, then this might come as a surprise to you - at least some of your money has an IRS claim on it.
And they've got laws in place to make sure they get what's coming to them.
