The Dow Index of the New York Stock Market in the US broke through the 30,000 mark, which is called the highland of dreams, for the first time in the market.
It has been 124 years since the first creation of the Dow Index in 1896, and after crossing the 20,000 mark for the first time in early 2017, it set a record again in less than four years.
The Dow index fell to 18,000 units in March this year due to the aftermath of Corona 19, but it has recovered steadily and exceeded the 30,000 mark in eight months.
Along with the Dow Index's new record breaking, the technology stock-oriented Nasdaq index reached its first record of 12,000 during the week, while the S&P 500 index also rose 1.5%.
Today's (25th) US stock market's record march is interpreted as having a large political factor.
Yesterday, President Trump's decision to cooperate with the transfer of power, the relief of political uncertainty, has been a major impact.
In addition, US President-elect Biden's appointment as former Federal Reserve Chairman Janet Yellen, who is known as a market-friendly person, as the first female finance minister in history, also affected the analysis.
In the big frame, it is known that the stock market's liquidity overflows as money rushes to the stock market after the coronavirus outbreak.
President Trump went on to self-praise through an unexpected press conference.
[Trump/U.S. President: Today's stock market broke the 30,000 line that had never been broken before.
30,000 is a very sacred number.
No one would have thought of setting this record.
I would like to congratulate everyone who has worked hard in the Trump administration.

After a little over a minute, President Trump left without asking any questions.
