The Dow Jones Industrial Average surged 1,500 points, or 5.4%, in early trading Monday and the S&P 500 jumped 3.7% after drugmaker Pfizer said early data show its coronavirus vaccine looks highly effective.

The Big Tech companies that drove the market higher earlier in the pandemic, in large part because they didn’t need a “normal” economy, were lagging behind. That kept a lid on the gains for the Nasdaq composite, which rose a more modest 0.9%.

And in Washington, some uncertainties remain that could derail what’s already become a roughly 11% rally for the S&P 500 so far in November. Markets are banking on Benchmark U.S. crude oil surged 10.2% to $40.93 per barre on expectations that a healthier economy will burn more energy. Brent crude, the international standard, rose 9% to $43.00 per barrel.Gold, meanwhile, fell 3.9% to $1,875.30 per ounce as investors felt less need to crowd into investments considered safe refuges.

And Joe Biden won!

Somethng that will benefit the world will surely turn into money,but if such a thing is discovred,this joy should surpass material expectations.Whichever news channel I look at,it gives the share rates of the substance producer that will positivly affect the elimination of covid

It opened at 29,467, so the after hours trading was trending higher at the end of last week, which illustrates that the “surge” is more likely due to the election trending in favor of JoeBiden. Remind to be seen how it closes today due to Pfizer.

Thank you Joe!
