<Anchor> During the

night, the New York Stock Exchange Nasdaq index exceeded 10,000 for the first time in history. The so-called untouched, non-contact IT industry is driving up the index, and some are analyzing whether it is overheated.

The Nasdaq Index of the New York Stock Exchange in the United States continued its highest streak for two consecutive days.

It climbed to 10,002.50 at one time in the week and ended at 9,953.75, 29 points higher than the previous day, with a slight decrease in ascent.

It is the first time that the NASDAQ index has exceeded the 10,000 mark since its inception in 1971.

The overall share price continues to rise as New York and other parts of the United States resume economic activity to some extent from the impact of Corona 19.

The liquidity market continues to bolster with the Fed's unlimited money release.

In particular, Nasdaq's surge is analyzed as the non-contact IT industry is in the spotlight due to the Corona 19 incident.

Amazon's share price rise, the world's largest e-commerce company, is a prime example.

However, there is also concern that the US economy is overheated, given that it is in a recession.

In particular, bankruptcy companies including Hertz, the rental car company that filed for bankruptcy protection, are also experiencing a surge in'don't ask'.

Unlike the Nasdaq, which has the highest record every day, the Dow and S&P 500 indexes declined slightly, despite the previous day's rise.
