On the quarter's final day, the Dow slumped into the closing bell, losing 96.28 points, or 1%. That left it 12.8% below its 2010 high set on April 26—placing it firmly in a correction. The Dow stands 31% below its record close of 14164.53 from October 2007 but up 49.3% from its 12-year low of 6547.05 hit on March 9, 2009. The Standard & Poor's 500-stock index posted its worst quarterly performance since the final three months of 2008 when the financial crisis was in full swing. With a 1% loss Wednesday, the S&P 500 fell 11.9% during the quarter to 1030.71. Meanwhile, investors flocked to investments seen as safe havens. Gold rose 11.9% per troy ounce to $1,245.50, finishing the quarter just shy of its record high of $1,257.20. U.S. Treasury prices also rose sharply, driving the yield significantly lower. The yield on the U.S. Treasury 10-year note finished the quarter at 2.96%, down from 3.84% at the end of March and making Treasurys one of the best-performing asset classes for the quarter. kennyboy head between leggs screams for help and curses at idiot odumba
