It's The Economy Stupid: Market Close

Stocks go up, bonds go down.  All of the major U.S. stock indices were up today, led by the Dow up over 120 points, while Treasury bonds sold off pushing the yield on the 10 Year Treasury up to near 3 percent at 2.99%.

 

So, how has your stock portfolio done this year?

U.S. stocks climbed, extending an all-time high for the Dow Jones Industrial Average, the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index, the NASDAQ 100, the NASDAQ Composite, the Russell 3000, the Russell 2000, the Russell 1000, and the Wilshire 5000.  A drop in jobless claims fueled optimism in the economy.  The U.S. benchmark indexes also reached all-time highs in a shortened session on Dec. 24 as data on durable goods and new-home sales beat forecasts. The S&P 500 has gained 29 percent so far in 2013, poised for its biggest annual jump since 1997.
