20,000-Point Dow Helps D20 Stock Index Rise for Fourth Straight Week

The D20 Stock Index continued its recent trend, experiencing its fourth positive week in a row, as the Dow rose above the 20,000-point mark for the first time in history.

The Dow’s historic week saw a 1.3-percent gain, closing at 20,093.78. The S&P 500 was also up, gaining 1 percent to end the week at 2,294.69.

Sixteen price gainers helped the D20 also make history, by adding 2.1 percent and closing at a record high of 184.78.

After leading the D20 in price percentage gains last week, Visteon (VC) took a step back this week.  The automotive parts manufacturer’s stock price was the D20’s biggest loser, dropping 3.4 percent to close at $88.75.

NVIDIA (NVDA) led all D20 gainers with a 7.5-percent price increase, closing at $111.77.  NNIDIA’s string of gains is impressive.  Its stock price gained 224 percent in 2016, going from $32.96 to $106.74.  It has been the leading D20 price percentage gainer in three of the last seven weeks.

Will NVIDIA’s good performance extend into 2017? Time will tell.
