Election Day is here, and the markets seem to be back on track after a devastating October. The Dow Jones industrial average and the S&P 500 were crushed last month, and the uncertainty from October still has some of the largest bulls on Wall Street rattled.
A Finviz review on Tuesday revealed that 243 members of the S&P 500 are still positive in 2018. This number shrinks when we look at the past 30 days, in which only 140 members of the S&P 500 are positive.
It’s worth pointing out that the S&P 500 and Dow industrials are down 6.5% and 5.1% from their respective 52-week and all-time highs. On a year-to-date basis, the S&P 500 and Dow are positive 2.5% and 2.9%, respectively.
