DOW at New High? Really?

DOW at New High - or Is It?

The DOW we are told is at an all-time high but adjusted for inflation it isn't - CNBC’s Jeff Cox writes, “in inflation-adjusted dollars, the Dow would need to hit 15,731.54 to break the record.” In fact, in inflation-adjusted terms, the Dow is still well below it’s 2000 high.

So more smoke and mirrors? Probably, this is the stock market after all, so if you are not prepared to accept that people are trying to manipulate you then don't both stock trading, every company report is an attempt to manipulate you. C'est la vie.

If you are trading stocks the aim is to be smarter than the average bear. Watch the charts and learn what they mean. It all comes out in the charts first!
