building on Lastlib's every Friday market metrics in Personal Finance and Investing Group

Thursday July 2 is the last day of the market week because markets were closed Friday July 3 for 4th of July Weekend.

Percent changes Last 7 days and last 4 weeks (since June 5)


The yield changes are the percentage points differences,
e.g. if some Treasury went from 3.61% to 3.66% over the past week. then that is a change of +0.05%

Red numbers in ()'s are negative numbers, meaning the metric went down.

Treasury notes' yields up means the notes' values are down
as likely people's bond portfolios

All time closing highs --

S&P 500: 7609.78 on 6/2
DOW: 50,188 on February 10, and then in May, June, and July has been lately setting frequent new all time highs. The 7/2 value shown, 52,900, is a new all-time high

For a 6- to 9-month perspective, depending on which graph, I like pasting these in because the automatically update. I wish I had one for the S&P 500, but I don't, oh well.

Dow, Oil, and Dollar (last several months) - they update a few hours (like about 6 hours) after the close

The attacks on Iran began on February 28.

Dow 30,
3/28 3:04 PM ET - I don't know why the big one hadn't updated so I added the little version which was more up-to-date

The graphs above update automatically. So they are up-to-date a few hours after each close (usually).
