"Recap Sept. 3"

A dip below 50 in the August ISM Manufacturing PMI (its lowest since August 2016) helped the bears get the upper hand as the S&P 500 lost a bit less than 1%, while Treasurys rallied again with the 10-year yield falling below 1.47%.  Gold rose above $1,550 intraday for the first time since April 2013, while WTI crude fell back below $54 a barrel and the VIX finished at 20.
