Dow Jones plunged 159 points, S&P 500 fell 14 points and Nasdaq Composite lost 65 points.
- U.S. Trade Representative’s office issued a brief statement characterizing the two days of talks with China as “productive.” China’s Commerce Ministry also described the talks as “constructive”, and said they also had a good discussion on “detailed arrangements” for the high-level talks in October.
- However, investors were still jittery as Beijing officials cancelled a visit to U.S. farms in Montana and headed back to China earlier than planned, dampening expectations of a trade deal being reached. Trumps had told reporters on Friday he was “not looking” for a partial deal.
