Folks...I Need Some Help. (Dow Jones related)

Tell me what you're looking for. If your looking for the price history of a particular stock I can help you look up that stocks history.

There is just so much information out there, I am not sure why you aren't finding what you need.
 
Specifically, I'm looking for an overall summary of every day since Sept. 15 to today. An overall summary of what happened on every given day that the market was open.
 
I use this one: http://www.marketwatch.com/

You
can look at any of the quotes and expand the parameters (dates)

Question? What good is it to look at the overall market; I find individual stocks don't track the major indexes. My view is you pays your money and the CEO's steal it. I once saw an experiment with a number of brokers and an imaginary 10k invested vs. a random toss of darts at a wall street journal listing---------you guessed it, the dartboard out performed every professional broker advice.

How do you make a small fortune with the stock market?---------start with a large one.

Yes, I have made money in the stock market by buying and holding. All of my co-workers who tried to time the market or deal in options loss everything they had. I like DRIPs and Blue chips.
 
It's for a homework assignment that I didn't realize was due...I'm supposed to have just a summary of each day of what caused the overall market to happen that way. A release of some sort of technology, a bankruptcy, a trend in the market towards gold...etc.

Then I'm supposed to paraphrase what has happened in my own words.

Hah!!!, good luck with that, I do read the daily summaries and noticed that the exact same story will be used by different "advisers" and "experts" to explain movements in opposite directions-------for example I've seen stories of a weaker dollar used to explain both raising and lowering Crude Oil prices. The only thing that seems consistent is with new technology------if you can find a company that is actually developing a new tech application------then there is profit to be made.

Here's a thought, if I could guarantee that 51% of my decisions are accurate, then I could be a millionaire on just the 1% difference! Since I'm not after 30 years of trying, turns out the DW was correct, I am full of chickenpoo.
