    Default Everything Has Gone Sky High: From the Dow To Nasdaq, Stock Prices Skyrocketing.

    Stocks Jump On Jobs, Earnings!!!

    The Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped amid a broad rally on jobs data and a strong start to earnings season. Microsoft (MFST) gained as it moved to shut down LinkedIn in China. Boeing (BA) took a dive, while Taiwan Semiconductor (TSM) earnings helped Nvidia (NVDA) and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) gain.

    A number of stocks were making bullish moves, including Snowflake (SNOW) and Upstart (UPST). Primerica (PRI), Baker Hughes (BKR) and Clearfield (CLFD) passed buy points.

    Stocks were boosted after the Labor Department reported first-time applications for unemployment assistance decreased to 293,000 in the week ended Oct. 9. This was a 10% drop on the prior week. It was also under economists consensus projection for 320,000 claims.

    This marked a second straight decline in weekly applications. It was also the lowest tally since March 2020, just as the pandemic got underway.

    Nasdaq Leads Amid Broad Gains

    The Nasdaq was leading the way with a gain of about 1.6%. Okta (OKTA) stood out, thanks to a gain of more than 4%.

    The broader S&P 500 index was not far behind however, rising about 1.5%. APA (APA) was one of the standouts here, rising more than 5%.

    U.S. Stock Market Today Overview

    Index Symbol Price Gain/Loss % Change
    Dow Jones (0DJIA) 34857.24 +479.43 +1.39
    S&P 500 (0S&P5) 4430.21 +66.41 +1.52
    Nasdaq (0NDQC ) 14803.89 +232.25 +1.59

    The S&P 500 sectors were all green, with technology and materials leading. Energy was posting the slimmest gains.

    Small caps were also doing well, with the Russell 2000 up 1.3%.

    Growth stocks were benefiting from the bull charge, too. The Innovator IBD 50 ETF (FFTY) was up 1.2%.

    The Dow Jones Industrial Average was up more than 500 points, gaining about 1.5%.

    God Bless President Biden

    For rampant inflation??? Ok. You can blame Biden's Handlers for that.

    The Worker Drone Class can buy stocks. In fact, 55% of Americans own stock.

    With a due respect, I don't think that applies to all the other 45%.

    Your IRA is FOR Retirement. If you 'got out', I can't begin to tell you how much YOU 'fucked up'.

    you are a fucking liar. and trump caused the economic shit from covid along with hundreds of thousands of extra deaths by lying about it, ignoring it, saying it was a democratic hoax for months because he was afraid it would affect his precious dow jones average, which was less than obama's anyway, as far as percentage increase.
