Prices fell for the first time since last Wednesday, with the NASDAQ falling -.90 percent, the S&P500 off – .39 percent while the DJIA closed at -.08 percent. Thus the odd, unusual character of daily changes continues for another day.
As before, this combination is a first; so without a record of past closes for the next day, there cannot be a projection based on history. Yet some data are available: 140 turn-arounds from negative to positive occurred since January 2000. However, on the following day, declines outnumbered gains by about 30 percent.
DJIA -.08 percent NASDAQ -.90 percent
S&P500 -.39 percent
