Opportunity for investor action in moment of calm

US markets were largely flat overnight in a calm session of trading. But don't be fooled, this could be the eye of the storm, as the US and China are in a stand off as their trade war continues. Gold remains at a high, so investors continue to seek safe assets. Today we're likely to see a similar calm trading day, maybe edging up or down. China's GDP data out today will be a focus for investors.
