On the 31st (local time) on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), the Dow Jones 30 Industrial Average ended at 3,606.48, up 196.92 points (0.65%) compared to the previous trading day.

The Standard & Poor’s (S&P) 500 index also rose 24.03 points (0.64%) to 3756.07, and the Nasdaq index rose 18.28 points (0.14%) to 12888.28.

The Dow and S&P 500 indexes recorded all-time highs based on the closing price.

The New York stock market sharply fluctuated this year with Corona 19. With the spread of Corona 19, the S&P 500 index plunged about 30% at the fastest rate in history in February and March.

After that, the market was revived by the liquidity input of the US government. The NASDAQ surged about 43.6% on an annual basis this year. The S&P 500 rose about 16.3% and the Dow rose 7.3%.

On this day, the market was relieved by announcing the favorable results of the US unemployment indicators. The U.S. Department of Labor announced the number of weekly unemployment benefits claims that were below expectations. The market estimate was about 828,000, but the actual number of claims was about 787,000.

However, it is becoming a burden as the corona mutant virus spreads in countries around the world, including the United States.

It is also positive that the US government is implementing an additional $900 billion stimulus package. However, the plan to increase the amount of cash payments from $600 to $2,000 remains uncertain.
