Analyst View
After the market volatility of the past week, traders and investors had to pause their trade due to the  Presidents Day holiday yesterday.

U.S. equity markets, as well as the bond market, will be closed on Monday. Stock futures will trade on an abbreviated schedule. Equities will close at 1:30 p.m. Commodity futures, such as energy and metals, will trade until 2:30 p.m. Markets in Europe and Asia traded according to their regular schedules.

U.S. stocks fell across the board Friday as investors kept a close eye on escalating worries over the possibility of Russia invading Ukraine. The S&P 500 fell 31.39 points to 4,348.87. The benchmark index is now 9.3% below its all-time high set on Jan. 3. The Dow fell 232.85 points to 34,079.18, and the Nasdaq gave up 168.65 points to 13,548.07.


The major indexes recorded losses for a second straight week.

Commodities, Oil fell over 2% for the week, closing at $91.07 per barrel. Russia is a major energy producer, and a military conflict could disrupt energy supplies and make for extremely volatile energy prices.

Treasury, Treasury yields fell as investors shifted money into the safety of U.S. bonds. The yield on the 10-year Treasury, which affects rates on mortgages and other consumer loans, fell to 1.93% from 1.97%.

Weakness from several big technology stocks, which have more weight on indexes because of their size, helped pull the broader market lower. Intel fell 5.3%. Retailers and travel-related companies also lost ground. Amazon shed 1.3% and Royal Caribbean fell 1.7%.
