We will likely break through both of these barriers soon ... maybe even today! 
We've come a long way since March 2009 when the Dow fell to 6,623 and the Nasdaq fell to 1,293.
Today we are opening at:
Dow Jones 15,876.22
 Nasdaq 3,972.74
Futures are up:

(Reuters) - U.S. stock index futures rose on Friday, buoyed by reassuring remarks by Federal Reserve chair nominee Janet Yellen, setting up the Dow and S&P 500 indexes for fresh record highs.

Long way indeed. Everyone with a 401K, or other investments should be very happy. I know I am. Housing is recovering nicely too. |

Another super bubble created by printing borrowed money by the fed , backed by our government . That 80 billion a month the government is giving to the big banks indefinitely to bail them out has the banks investing to make money in the stock market.. big big bubble.. the banks are trying to recoup the money they lost with millions of bad loans in the mortgage industry. |

Make sure you tell the DailyKos and DU folks this because they seem to be whining that Wall Street is making money at the expense of Main street.

Maybe you should pull your face off pages of dailykos and use common sense.
51 million Americans have 401K accounts, and millions of others have other kinds of investments, and all of them benefit. They are the main street, and they are happy about the performance of their investments. |

I agree with you. Liberal Obama supporters like RD5050 do not. They tout the market at one breath and demonize Wall Street in the next. |

I do not "demonize" Wall St.
I recognize Wall St. as an indicator of the U.S. Economy, which is continually getting better.
I also see my retirement fund looking the best I've ever seen it! 
Sure we still have a long way to go ... but look how far we've come already! |

Anything positive is, obviously, bad news forthe America-haters. I won't be surprised, if the Dow breaks the record, to seethe American Taliban in the Congress introduce a resolution condemning thePresident, Wall St., whomever they can lash-out at. But as someone heavilyinvested in my 401k plan, the record-breaking will be good news to me.

I think it's great that Wall Street is doing better, and I use it as ammo for the Workers' Party useful idiots. |
