On the 24th, the New York market continued to rise. The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at $42,208.22, up $83.57, and the Nasdaq closed at 18,074.52, up 100.25 points. Following expectations of additional interest rate cuts by the end of the year and stimulus measures in China, the outlook for the global economy improved and it rose after the opening. However, optimism about the economy receded and turned into selling as the September Consumer Confidence Index fell below expectations. Profit-taking selling was seen from near record highs in the Dow, causing it to struggle. The Nasdaq, expecting demand for artificial intelligence (ai), showed strong buying interest in semiconductors such as Nvidia (Nvidia), supporting the market steadily and pushing it up. Towards the end, the Dow also recovered into positive territory, setting new record highs for consecutive days and closed. By sector, semiconductor and related manufacturing equipment rose, while the utilities industry declined. The Chicago Nikkei 225 futures settlement price was 37,670 yen, down 150 yen compared to Osaka daytime trading.
