Major indices close within shouting distance of the close from yesterday
Call it a tie betweent the buyers and sellers. That is because the major indices are ending the day within few points of unchanged on the day.
Although unchanged, it was more of a disappontment for the bulls. The Dow was up 185 points at the highs. The Nasdaq was up 86 points. The S&P was up aount 24 points at the highs. So those gains were eroded through the day.
The final numbers are showing:
- S&P fell -1.01 pointsor -0.04% at 2885.72
- Nasdaq fell -0.603 points or -0.01% at 7822.56
- Dow fell -13.70 points or -0.05% at 26048.98
Below are the high/low % changes and the closing %. As you can see, the move above the 0% line was greater. So giving up those gains is a disappointment.
