Dow Jones Industrial Average

So.

You know, the NASDAQ is much more volatile than the S&P, than the Dow, than the utility or staples sector.

So 15% for the NASDAQ is meaningful, but it's not the end of the world.

It's not necessarily a correction.

Value outperformed versus the S&P.

But they were all down by a good amount.

I think the Dow was down 3%.

So you're right.

The next day, the market loved it.

The next day, The Dow shot up 1,300 points.

Everything was in the green.

I think people were pretty confused by that.

And it could be the case.

Looking at prices this morning, and this is where I want to get to this morning, we were starting the podcast while the market is opening, so I wouldn't fully trust all the prices, but S&P 500 is up around 0.65%.

The NASDAQ is up around 1.2%, and the Dow is flat.

So we recovered part of the loss.

Let me pull the, look at this.

The Dow plunged 1800 points and NASDAQ tumbled into correction territory on AI tech wreck.

Rough day for investors and many of the world's most prominent tech companies.

This, of course, has a huge impact here in the Bay Area.

Right now, the NASDAQ has tumbled.

It tumbled the S&P 500.

The Dow is down 1,200 points.

This is lowest level since September 9th for the Treasury yields.

With Trump's ability to create chaos now somewhat contained, at least as of January, people have a little bit more confidence in the potential for stability, and therefore, hopefully, the overall economy, which will play through to housing crisis.

This confidence was seen immediately in the stock market, which saw the Dow post 1,570-point gain, the largest post-midterm election day in 44 years.

However, we're recording today, and so far the Dow was down 2.4%.

And the NASDAQ is down over 5%.

That is massive for a one-day swing.

And if you're like holding certain stocks or certain funds in your 401k and everything's in your 401k and you're waiting to get to the point to roll it out to do a retirement plan, you need to start that retirement plan now because the thing is, is all of a sudden what you are in might be out of favor, right? So they might say, hey, tech is out now.

The Dow is in.

And so you're in tech and it doesn't you know, I'm just saying that's why you need a good, solid plan.

Sure.

Look over here, not over here.

This explosion was in Greenville, Mississippi, and it sent a massive black cloud Oh, and the Dow hit an all-time new high.

Again, look at that.

Look at that.

And indeed, it was a remarkable day on Wall Street.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average soared.

1,570 points, best day in more than a year.

But wait, wait, that was Wednesday.

Stocks tumbled today after yesterday's post-midterm high, wiping out Wednesday's big gains with stocks and data center companies taking major hits.

The Dow lost 1,833 today.

The S&P 500 fell 335.

The Nasdaq entered correction territory, down 1,422.

Time being.

And the Dow is going to be up close to seventeen hundred points.

Anybody predict that? No.

No, and to be quite honest, neither did I. That's why we don't do that.
