Swing Wednesday and Points

dow: Yes, it went through a wild swing Wednesday, plummeting more than 500 points at the open before rallying, according to Market Watch. But Perspective, folks. Yes, the Dow has plunged more than 1,000 points in a couple of weeks, thanks to the president's tariff spat with China. The Dow was just 18,000 when Trump was elected nearly three years ago. If it had just put in an average performance by historic standards, it would currently be nearly 23,000. Right now, even following Monday's big drop, it's above 26,000. (news.financializer.com).
