The S&P index closed at a record high yesterday, and today the intraday high made a new record at 6128.18. But gains have not been sustained, and the major indexes are on these 4 declines.
A picture of the current market shows:
- The Dow industrial average is down -173 points or -0.39% at 44,391.70
- The S&P index is down -27.18 points or 0.44% at 6091.85
- The NASDAQ index is down -136.11 points or 0.67% at 19617
The record in the NASDAQ index is 20173.89. Today's high price reached 20118.61 – within 55 points of the record.
With the current market, it is likely that no records will be made today. There is still an hour and 1/2 left in trading but the tendency seems to be to take a profit on the weekend.
