YOUR PHILLIP SUMMARY
US markets were closed for Labor Day on Monday while the trade negotiation between the US and Canada continued to weigh on Asian and European stocks. Stock markets in Asia were weak, with Japan’s Nikkei Stock Average closing down 0.8%, Hong Kong’s Hang Seng falling 0.6% and Australia’s S&P ASX 200 dropping 0.1%. Many market participants were looking at the NAFTA renegotiation as a bellwether for how far the U.S. is willing to take its trade spat with China. The US employment number due Friday will be the main spotlight for the week to provide further clues of the strength of the US economy.
