E-Mini Dow
Futures were largely unchanged after the Labor Department’s data showed more than 2 million Americans sought unemployment benefits for the 10th straight week. A separate report showed GDP contracted at a bigger-than-expected 5.0% annualized rate in the first quarter, the deepest drop in output since the 2007-09 Great Recession.
However, analysts have warned that worsening ties between Washington and Beijing over the handling of the coronavirus outbreak and the new national security law in Hong Kong pose a major threat to the stock market’s strong recovery from the crash earlier this year.
The Trump administration is crafting a range of options, including targeted sanctions, new tariffs and further restrictions on Chinese companies, according to U.S. officials and people familiar with the discussions.

E-Mini S&P 500
The Dow fell 147.63 points, or 0.58%, to close at 25,400.64. The S&P 500 dipped 0.21% to 3,029.73. The Nasdaq Composite advanced 0.46% to 9,368.99. Stocks closed lower after President Donald Trump said he would hold a news conference regarding China on Friday.
Trump’s announcement came after China's National People's Congress approved a national security bill for Hong Kong. The bill will bypass Hong Kong’s legislature, raising concerns over the longevity of Hong Kong’s “one party, two systems” principle, which allows additional freedoms mainland China does not have. That announcement sent stocks tumbling in the final hour of trading. Stocks had traded higher for most of the session as the latest unemployment data signaled the worst of the economic damage from the coronavirus pandemic may be over.
Bank stocks fell broadly on Thursday, giving back some of their strong gains for the week. Citigroup fell 5.93% while JPMorgan Chase slid 1.49%. Bank of America dropped 4.31%.
International trade numbers, along with personal income data, are set for release Friday. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell is also scheduled to speak.

E-Mini Nasdaq
Stock futures slipped early Friday morning as traders braced for an upcoming news conference on U.S.-China relations from President Donald Trump.
Dow futures dipped 127 points, implying a Friday opening dip of around 25 points. S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 futures also pointed to a near flat open for the two indexes.
Trump said Thursday afternoon he would hold the news conference, knocking stocks down from solid gains. That announcement came after China approved a national security bill for Hong Kong that experts warn could endanger the city’s “one party, two systems” principle. That principle allows for additional freedoms that mainland China residents don’t have.
Tensions between China and the U.S. have risen lately as Trump criticizes the Chinese government’s response to the coronavirus outbreak. U.S. lawmakers have also been critical of China increasing its stronghold over Hong Kong.
Paul Christopher, head of global market strategy at Wells Fargo, said he expects more rhetoric from the U.S. regarding Hong Kong and China, noting: “It could end up being a headwind once the market finishes pricing in all of this hopium.”

HSI
Hong Kong shares ended lower in a volatile session on Thursday, as U.S.-China tensions escalated over a new security law, after Washington threatened to withdraw a special status given to the city.
The Hang Seng index closed down 0.7% at 23,132.76, after falling more than 2% mid-session to its lowest level since May 25.

Gold
Gold inched up on Friday and was on track for its second monthly gain as deteriorating U.S.-China ties in a world reeling from the coronavirus pandemic rattled investors and fueled demand for the safe-haven metal.
Spot gold was up 0.1% at $1,719.47 per ounce by 0342 GMT. U.S. gold futures rose 0.3% to $1,717.60.
However, the metal was down for the week, having dropped to a two-week low on Wednesday as easing lockdown measures around the world boosted hopes of an economic recovery.

WTI Crude
Oil prices edged lower on Friday after U.S. inventory data showed lackluster fuel demand in the world’s largest oil consumer while worsening U.S.-China tensions weighed on global financial markets.
Brent crude slipped 25 cents, or 0.7%, to $35.04 a barrel by 0334 GMT and U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude was at $33.18 a barrel, down 53 cents, or 1.6%. Still, both contracts are set for a fifth weekly gain, helped by production cuts and optimism about demand recovery in other countries.
