Top Day Market News
In the early going last night, the stronger dollar was sapping the strength of most markets across the board. Asian stocks were lower on a drop in US consumer confidence. HK protests continue on the eve of Chinese holidays. Another psychological negative was the discovery of the first case of Ebola on US soil. ADP private jobs forecast out at 8:15.
As mentioned yesterday, the oil market remains oversupplied. The fall in price yesterday was the single worst negative excursion in 22 months.
