Down day to start US election week

The major US stock indices are closing lower to start the US election week.

The Dow 30 fared the worst of the major 3 indices.

The final number are showing:

  • Dow industrial average -257.60 points or -0.61% at 41794.60
  • S&P -16.11 points or -0.28% at 5712.69
  • Nasdaq -59.93 points or -0.22% t 18179.98

The small cap Russell 2000 moved higher today with a gain of 8.90 points or 0.40% at 2219.03.

The general feeling is a Harris victory would lead to a weaker stock market vs a Trump victory. Having said that, the change today is modest.
