Dow Jones eventually lifts above 35k
It has been a grind and it may not be over with yet, but the Dow Jones has finally managed to print a trade at just a few points above 35k this evening. The move to a fresh session high comes as the Nasdaq 100 remains subdued and curtailed by the rebound in US treasury yields. Those have not backed yet either and that is holding back the nasdaq 100 from following the Dow Jones higher. The Dow Jones has literally just this minute traded to 35,008. It remains to be seen if the index can extend that move and also whether it has the impetus to post a daily close above 35k. It has not done that since August 14. The Dow Jones is just now trading at 35,001
