5 Things to Do With the Stock Market at a New All-Time High
Congratulations, long-term investors! If you've been hanging on to your investments over the past eight-plus years since the market bottomed out, you're probably sitting on some handsome returns. Through Wednesday, Oct. 4, 2017, the S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC), Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI), and Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX: ^IXIC) were higher by a respective 275%, 246%, and 415% since their March, 9, 2009 lows.
Even more impressive, all three indexes just logged yet another all-time record closing high. That marks more than 40 new all-time highs this year for the Dow, and in excess of 50 new record closing highs for the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite.
