Nasdaq tops 10,000 for the first time ever
CNNNew York CNN Business — Wall Street’s love affair with technology stocks shows no sign of stopping. The Nasdaq, an index that includes the top FAANG stocks, Microsoft, Tesla and many other titans of tech, topped 10,000 for the first time ever Tuesday. Investors have flocked to tech giants, such as Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Netflix and Google owner Alphabet, this year in hope that they will post strong sales and earnings growth – despite concerns about the Covid-19 outbreak crippling the global economy and US job market. Companies in traditionally more value-oriented sectors like energy, retail, health care and financial services have also enjoyed big rebounds since the bottom hit its low point of the year in March. And the CNN Business Fear & Greed Index, which looks at seven barometers of investor sentiment, has been showing signs of greed in the market since last week.
