Stocks rose sharply on Wednesday, continuing a strong start to September for the market as traders took profits out of high-flying names like Apple and Tesla and snapped up shares in more beaten-down parts of the market.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average advanced 454.84 points, or 1.6%, to close at 29,100.50. It was the Dow’s first close above 29,000 since February. The S&P 500 gained 1.5% to end the day at 3,580.84 while the Nasdaq Composite was higher by 1% at 12,056.44.
Both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq hit record highs, with the Nasdaq topping 12,000 for the first time. The Dow also posted its biggest one-day move since July 14. The S&P 500 had its best day since July 6.

No more Fear in US! All looks well ahead there but here in SG more retrenchment news.
ReplyDeleteDie hard sinkies are hoping for mean reversion where SG & emerging markets can outshine US again, like from 2003-2007!
ReplyDeleteBut without more "new economy" stocks, any SG outperformance may be shortlived, like from 2009-2013.
