After a successful day of making gains on Thursday, the Dow was able to miraculously cancel all the gains within the final hour of trade after a report that President Donald Trump was set to hold a news conference on China on Friday. This comes at a time when tensions are high between the two countries especially after China plans to set a highly controversial law in place regarding the economy of Hong Kong dubbed China's freest city.
