Stocks open higher on Wall Street, a day after a big slump in technology companies pulled the market to its biggest drop since June. Traders were encouraged to see a drop in the unemployment rate last month, even as hiring slowed.

A woman wearing a face mask to help curb the spread of the coronavirus walks in front of an electronic stock board showing Japan's Nikkei 225 index at a securities firm in Tokyo Friday, Sept. 4, 2020. Asian markets skidded Friday after Wall Street had its worst day since June, as investors’ exuberance faltered after a spate of record highs.

There was little going on in Asia to alter the markets’ downward trajectory after the U.S. benchmark S&P 500 gave up 3.5% on Thursday, its biggest loss in three months, and the Nasdaq fell 5% as high-flying technology companies took a tumble after months of spectacular gains. “While I don’t think its a healthy meltdown, getting rid of some of the short term speculator froth will offer up better levels for the Wall of Money to indulge as we know the Fed is not going anywhere soon,” Stephen Innes of AxiCorp said in a commentary.

Investors have been betting those companies will keep making huge profits as people spend even more time online with their devices during the pandemic, making new market darlings of companies like Zoom Video Communications as many Americans work remotely and students do online learning.

So I guess Munchin used last night to spend tax money to buy bonds in tech companies so the market could open higher than when it closed.

my children will grow up knowing their black skin is something to honor and be proud of

Asian stocks follow Wall Street lower, nervous wait for U.S. jobs dataAsia's stock markets had their worst session in two weeks on Friday following a tech-led plunge on Wall Street, though gains in safer assets like bonds and dollars were muted as investors awaited U.S. job data to see if it triggers a bigger selloff. Where is the President for this great news I know it's form, but its so annoying that 'up' is close to close, not open to close. Nikkei actually shot up (from its gap down) at the open.
