The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed above 50,000 for the first time, marking a historic milestone as it outperformed other indices, driven by strong performances from companies like Caterpillar.
Some surprising names led the blue-chip index’s historic rise.
The Dow surpassed the 50000 mark on Friday.
The Dow industrials reached 50000 this past week. The younger crowd is unimpressed.
The Nasdaq composite rose 0.9% as investors bought into both software and AI companies that were beaten up last week. Larry Ellison’s Oracle jumped 9.6%.
