NEW YORK (dpa-AFX) – The record run on the US stock exchanges continued with small steps on Tuesday. However, the Dow Jones Industrial is still lagging behind. His early gains also fizzled out and so he ended the day almost unchanged with plus 0.03 percent to 34 292.29 points.
The market-wide S&P 500 also closed with plus 0.03 percent and thus rose to 4291.80 points. In early trading, however, it had managed to break the 4300 point mark for the first time in its history. Likewise, the Nasdaq stock exchanges, which are mainly peppered with technology stocks, topped their records and were able to hold them. The Nasdaq 100 selection index ultimately advanced 0.33 percent to 14,572.75 points.
However, the economic data hardly moved the indices. The real estate market continues to record strong price increases. In addition, the mood of US consumers surprisingly brightened significantly and rose again to the level shortly before the Corona crisis. “Even if the recovery in mood is impressive, it is only partially reflected in the spending behavior of consumers,” said market analyst Michael Hewson from CMC Markets and recalled the fall in retail sales in May. / Ck / men
