June 5 Market Close: GovCon Index and Indices all Close Down Reversing Last Weeks Trend


The GovCon Index and major U.S. indices all closed down after a previous week of strong performance.

The three U.S. indices moved down slightly on the day giving back some of last weeks gains as investors watch developments on the geopolitical front.
