Welcome to Closing Bell, I'm Mike Santoli in for Scott Wopner.

This make or break hour begins with economic slowdown concerns, setting the tone and

restraining the major indexes, which haven't been able to build on Monday's brisk rebound

rally to outrun those harder landing fears. Here's a look at the scorecard with an

hour left in regulation. See the S&P 500 up about one-third of a percent. It's been plus or minus

around the flat line all day. A few mega caps really responsible for that game,

Microsoft, Oracle, and Broadcom in particular. You see the NASDAQ is outperforming based on those stocks working

Dow is down a quarter of a percent. Russell lagging today just a bit by down by 0.2 percent.

Financials and consumer cyclicals have been pacing the downside.

That reflects a bit of that macro tunnel, though you see the financial sector down about 1%.

A sluggish global growth backdrop dragging Treasury yields to new 14 month lows as well.

Lots of dovish global growth data that's getting on people's mind.

3.64 on the 10 year oil extending recent losses actually

accelerating down to a three year low $66 with W.T. I which all takes us to

our talk of the tape. How best to navigate a market spooked by late cycle

ghosts, running into seasonal headwinds, and distracted by political static.

Let's bring in Eric Johnson of K Cantor Fitzgerald, Shannon

and B Private Wealth, and Christina Hooper of Invesco, Shannon,

AC, and B, contributor.

All joining me here, great to see everybody.

Eric, want to just focus on your take which has for a while been flagging

downside risk to the economy and markets that maybe aren't prepared for it.
