Riding High: Dow Jones Just Hit the 23,000 Mark
by Lucy Bayly Just six weeks after smashing the 22,000 mark, the Dow Jones has hit another record high, topping 23,000 in midday trading on Tuesday.
The 134-year-old index is on track for its fourth-fastest 1,000-point increase, if it closes at or above the 23,000-point level.
"Every time we get a milestone like that, it seems like mainstream America pays more attention to financial markets," Art Hogan, chief market strategist at Wunderlich Securities, told CNBC.
