This time its the Nasdaq 100 that finally gets its name in the record books

As reported on here right at the start of the US opening bell, it was the Nasdaq 100 that outshone its two peers. The index later extended the earlier rise above 21k, to reach a new all time high, at 21,201. That rise, to a new record also helped to underpin the S+P 500, even as the Dow Jones spent most of the session in the red (and later closed lower). Consequently, the S+P set a new all time high too yesterday. The index peaked at 6,050.71.The Nasdaq 100 later closed 234 points higher, at 21,164 which was a record close for the index.  The price action in the Nasdaq 100 futures overnight during the Asian session today has seen a slight lift, as the Nikkei 225 leads the gains. The Nasdaq 100 is currently priced to reopen around 21,175
