FYI: Blue-chip gauge and S&P 500 each aim for 9th consecutive monthly rise.
Here’s another interesting statistical tidbit to illustrate the stock market’s extraordinary 2017 performance—in particular, the lack of pullbacks and volatility seen over this calendar year.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, +0.47% which is knocking on the door of the 25,000 milestone and earlier this week notched its 70th record close of 2017 to break a calendar-year record that’s stood since 1995, is on track to log its longest streak of monthly gains in nearly 59 years.
