A broad rally in stocks Wednesday lifted the Dow Jones Industrial Average above 29000 for the first time since February, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq closed at new highs

U.S. stocks extended their rally Wednesday, giving the S&P 500 its 22nd record close of 2020 and pushing the Dow industrials above 29000 for the first time since February.

The S&P gained 1.5% to 3580, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 1.6%, or 453 points, to 29099. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite picked up 1% and notched its 43rd record of the year. New data Wednesday suggested a recovery is underway in the labor market, though a slow one. The American private sector added 428,000 jobs in August, according to payroll processor Automatic Data Processing Inc. The figure came in well below the expected 1.17 million jobs.

If the S&P 500 holds the day’s gains, it will have closed higher in nine of the past 10 trading days. “It just feels like the market’s grinding higher every single day, regardless of the news,” said Charles Day, managing director and private wealth advisor at UBS.

Revelation 5;5 Then one of the elders ,( from Moses to John) said to me, “Do not weep! See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals.”

Amazing paradox when you see economic perspective unless a big balloon ?

So glad those suffering billionaires are doing well. The rest of us are just trying to hang on. But whew the agony of the billionaires is over. That’s so important...

me trading tesla today:

Never mind that HUGE dip in US and global GDP. The FED is spending money propping up the stock market at the expense of everybody else.

What does this actually mean for anyone who isn't already one of the wealthiest people in the world?
