Unless there's a big positive headline or tweet, I can see equity futures trading limit down and sitting there for a while.

I think it’s incredibly important to have appropriate branding for the next 12-24months… this is not Dems v. Rep. This is Democracy v. Autocracy. Perhaps the average person didn’t want to hear it during the election cycle however, that person is now directly impacted.
