In recent times, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) has exhibited remarkable moves with closing prices higher than 450 points on several occasions, driven by the anticipation of Federal Reserve's rate cuts hinted by Fed Chair Powell. This resulted in S&P 500 and DJIA closing near record highs and boosting the overall sentiment in the market.
There are also reports of billionaires investing massively in DJIA dividend stocks, further fostering investor confidence. Rate cuts, strong retail data and pushing back from a potential tech sell-off have contributed to the Dow closing above 40,000 and pacing weekly gains.
However, there also have been fears of US economic slowdown leading to titanic drops in the index. There are warnings hinting investors to proceed with caution, especially as the Dow closes lower on some instances. Despite these setbacks, the market is generally optimistic with continuous rally in stocks driven by Fed's dovish stance.
