Monday--Month-End

Today, U.S. investors ran from risk on the final day of trading of the month, unloading stocks and commodities following a big stock market selloff in China. However, despite those losses, the stocks finished August ahead of where they started. Also, the Dow had the best performance for August since 2000. Even though today was flat, things are looking up overall! DJIA -47.92 S&P 500 -8.31 NASDAQ -19.71
