Good morning, everybody. Welcome to squawk box here on cnbc but this comes after a backdrop of a pretty big decline on friday on friday the dow was down by 700 points and this morning its up by 200 points you have the s p up by close to 20 points and the nasdaq up by 26 but we are getting to the end of the month and thats when we start to take notice of what has been happening with declines that we saw on friday push the dow and s p 500 into negative territory for the month of june.
