The stock market remained closed today, due to Labor day. But futures were tradable some parts of the day. Major indices opened with a big gap up, probably on the news that Obama asked Congress for advice on a possible Syria-strike. That means, no immediate bombing. This had the opposite effect on oil which went down more than 2%, but recouped about half of the losses later on.
Normal trading resumes on Tuesday the third of September.
