"-- The Dow is up 15 percent for the quarter, its best gain since the fourth quarter of 1998. It's up 48.4 percent from its 12-year low of 6,547.05 in March. From a year ago, when the financial crisis worsened, the index is down 10.2 percent. The Dow is still down 21.4 percent from its peak of 14,164.53 in October 2007, but that's quite an improvement considering it fell 53.8 percent from that record. -- The S&P 500 index is up 15 percent for the quarter and 56.3 percent from March. It is down 9.1 percent from a year ago and 32.5 percent from its high of 1,565.15 in October 2007. -- The Nasdaq composite index, which has a big concentration of technology stocks, was the best performer. It rose 15.7 percent in the quarter and is up 67.3 percent from March." finance.yahoo.com Best wishes, I2
