Despite the still completely unclear outcome of the US presidential election, the US stock markets continued their clear recovery course on Wednesday. In the run-up to this, stockbrokers had feared this scenario of a hanging game with a dragging election result and possible legal challenges. The list of winners was led by the very strong technology stocks and stocks from the healthcare sector.
Der Dow Jones Industrial rose above 28,000 points in early trading. Most recently, the US benchmark index was 1.86 percent higher at 27,992.04 points. The Dow plus this week now adds up to around 5.6 percent, after the stock market barometer had lost around 6.5 percent the previous week. The market-wide S&P 500 won 2.45 percent on Wednesday to 3451.65 points. The Nasdaq 100 advanced a whopping 4.06 percent to 11,737.54 counters./edh/he
