I started serious Investing Journey in Jan 2000 to create wealth through long-term investing and short-term trading; but as from April 2013 my Journey in Investing has changed to create Retirement Income for Life till 85 years old in 2041 for two persons over market cycles of Bull and Bear.

Since 2017 after retiring from full-time job as employee; I am moving towards Investing Nirvana - Freehold Investment Income for Life investing strategy where 100% of investment income from portfolio investment is cashed out to support household expenses i.e. not a single cent of re-investing!

It is 57% (2017 to Aug 2022) to the Land of Investing Nirvana - Freehold Income for Life!

Dow breaks below 15000

By: | CNBC.com Stock Market Writer
                

Stocks finished broadly lower Thursday, with the Dow closing below the psychologically-important 15000 mark, after gunshots were fired outside the Capitol building and as the government shutdown dragged into a third day.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average slumped 136.66 points, or 0.90 percent, to close at 14,996.48, dragged by Boeing and Chevron. The blue-chip index finished below 15,000 for the first time since Sept. 6.

The S&P 500 fell 15.21 points, or 0.90 percent, to finish at 1,678.66. And the Nasdaq tumbled 40.68 points, or 1.07 percent, to end at 3,774.34.

The CBOE Volatility Index (VIX), widely considered the best gauge of fear in the market, jumped above 17. The index measures expectations for future stock swings based on the prices investors are willing to pay for options tied to the S&P 500 index. The VIX has surged nearly 15 percent this week.

All key S&P sectors remained in the red, dragged by utilities and industrials.
