U.S. markets suffer as virus spreads The COVID-19 pandemic triggered a turbulent period for stock markets – the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite also recorded dramatic drops. At the start of February, some analysts remained optimistic that the outbreak would ease. However, the increased spread of the virus started to hit investor confidence, prompting a record plunge in the stock markets.

Stock markets offer valuable economic insights The Dow Jones Industrial Average is a stock market index that monitors the share prices of the 30 largest companies in the United States. By studying the performance of the listed companies, analysts can gauge the strength of the domestic economy. If investors are confident in a company’s future, they will buy its stocks. The uncertainty of the coronavirus sparked fears of an economic crisis, and many traders decided that investment during the pandemic was too risky.

It is one of the numbers that financial analysts watch closely, using it as a bellwether for the United States economy. Seeing when these large gains occur, as well as the largest one-day point losses, gives insight to why these fluctuations may occur. The gains in 2009 are likely adjustments after major losses during the Financial Crisis, but those in 2018 are probably signs of high market volatility. Other leading financial indicators While the DJIA is closely watched, it only gives insight on the performance of thirty leading U.S. companies.

Index history

Dow Jones Industrial Average index (DJIA) is one of the most important stock market indices worldwide. It was created in 1896 by Charles Dow and Edward Jones. DJIA is the second oldest U.S. stock index after the Dow Jones Transportation Average, which was established in 1984.

Index components

DJIA reflects the performance of thirty large U.S. publicly traded companies. When the index was created, it was primarily composed of industrial companies, hence the index name. With time, the economic situation in the U.S. has changed and apart from industrial companies, which played a huge role in the market in the **** and the beginning of the **** century, also companies from other leading industries were incorporated into the index. At present, the DJIA index is composed of most renowned U.S. corporations, such as Coca Cola, Microsoft or Walt Disney.

Prices for United States Stock Market Index (US30) including live quotes, historical charts and news. United States Stock Market Index (US30) was last updated by Trading Economics this August 18 of 2025.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average is (DJIA) is possibly the most well-known and commonly used stock index in the United States. It is a price-weighted index that assesses the stock prices of 30 prominent companies, whose combined prices are then divided by a regularly-updated divisor (0.15199 in February 2021), which gives the index value. The companies included are rotated in and out on a regular basis; as of mid-2022, the longest mainstay on the list is Procter & Gamble, which was added in 1932; whereas Amgen, Salesforce, and Honeywell were all added in 2020. As one of the oldest indices for stock market analysis, the impact of major events, recessions, and economic shocks or booms can be tracked and contextualized over longer periods of time.

Due to inflation, unadjusted figures appear to be more sporadic in recent years, however the greatest fluctuations came in the earliest years of the index. In the given period, the greatest decline came in the wake of the Wall Street Crash in 1929; by 1932 average values had fallen to just one fifth of their 1929 average, from roughly 314 to 65.

Over the course of their first terms in office, no U.S. president in the past 100 years saw as much of a decline in stock prices as Herbert Hoover, and none saw as much of an increase as Franklin D. Roosevelt (FDR) - these were the two presidents in office during the Great Depression. While Hoover is not generally considered to have caused the Wall Street Crash in 1929, less than a year into his term in office, he is viewed as having contributed to its fall, and exacerbating the economic collapse that followed. In contrast, Roosevelt is viewed as overseeing the economic recovery and restoring faith in the stock market played an important role in this.

By the end of Hoover's time in office, stock prices were 82 percent lower than when he entered the White House, whereas prices had risen by 237 percent by the end of Roosevelt's first term. While this is the largest price gain of any president within just one term, it is important to note that stock prices were valued at 317 on the Dow Jones index when Hoover took office, but just 51 when FDR took office four years later - stock prices had peaked in August 1929 at 380 on the Dow Jones index, but the highest they ever reached under FDR was 187, and it was not until late 1954 that they reached pre-Crash levels once more.

The year 2025 has seen significant stock market volatility, with many of the world's largest companies experiencing substantial year-to-date losses. Tesla, Inc. has been hit particularly hard, with a **** percent decline as of April 10, 2025. Even tech giants like Apple and Microsoft have not been immune, seeing losses of ***** percent and **** percent respectively. Tech giants maintain market dominance despite losses Despite the recent stock price declines, technology companies continue to lead in market capitalization. Microsoft, Apple, NVIDIA, Amazon, and Alphabet (Google) remain among the few companies with market caps exceeding ************ U.S. dollars. This dominance reflects their long-term growth and influence in the global economy, even as they face short-term challenges in the stock market. Market volatility reflects broader economic concerns The current stock market losses are reminiscent of past periods of economic uncertainty. In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic caused severe market turbulence, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropping around ***** points in just four weeks. While the market has since recovered and reached new highs, the current downturn suggests ongoing economic concerns. Investors are likely reacting to various factors, including inflation, geopolitical tensions, and potential shifts in consumer behavior.

Kentucky has a diverse topography, and analysis of the similarity among biological assemblages across geographic scales can help clarify the inherent biological differences in the state. An a posterioriregional classification scheme based on river basins, physiographic regions and ecoregions has been developed (Pond et al., 2003; Pond and McMurray, 2002; Pond et al., 2000). Bioregions were established to incorporate ecoregion and river basin differences within the state and typically correspond to Level III Ecoregion boundaries (Woods et al., 2002). Due to the strong affinity between fish and river basins, bioregions for fish communities (also called Ichthyoregions) include some finer subdivisions than for macroinvertebrates, algae, and physical habitat (Compton et al., 2003). The bioregions are Mountains (MT; includes Ichthyoregion subdivision Cumberland River above Cumberland Falls, CA), Bluegrass (BG), Mississippi Valley-Interior River (MVIR), and Pennyroyal (PR; includes Ichthyoregion subdivision Upper Green River, GR). Generalized bioregion boundaries are described below. Note that in most cases bioregion boundaries do not follow stream and river networks, so these boundaries should not be considered to be precise in terms of assigning a particular stream segment location. Areas near bioregion boundaries should be examined closely to determine the appropriate classification. A description of the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of bioregions, as well as guidance for classifying sites in transitional areas can be found in KDOW’s SOP, Bioregions of Kentucky for Water Quality Assessments of Biological Integrity.Mountains (MT) and Cumberland above the Falls (CA)The Mountains bioregion includes all river systems (Big Sandy, Cumberland, Kentucky, Licking, Little Sandy and minor tributaries of the Ohio River) within the boundaries of the Western Allegheny Plateau ecoregion (70) and Central and Southwestern Appalachian ecoregions (69 and 68). Portions of the Central and Southwestern Appalachian ecoregions that are within the Cumberland River system and upstream of Cumberland Falls are categorized as a separate bioregion with respect to fish, Cumberland Above the Falls (CA).Bluegrass (BG) The Bluegrass bioregion includes all river systems (Kentucky, Licking, Salt and minor tributaries of the Ohio River) that lie within sub-ecoregions (Level IV ecoregions) 71d, 71k, and 71l of the Interior Plateau ecoregion (71).Pennyroyal (PR) and Upper Green River (GR)Includes all river systems (Cumberland, Green, Kentucky, Salt, Tradewater, Tennessee and the minor tributaries of the Ohio River) that lie within sub-ecoregions (71a, b, c, e, f, g, and h) of the Interior Plateau (71). The portion of the Green River system that falls within sub-ecoregion (Level IV ecoregion) 71g of the Interior Plateau ecoregion (71) is categorized as a separate bioregion with respect to fish, Upper Green River (GR).Mississippi Valley-Interior River (MVIR) Includes all river systems (lower Cumberland, Green, Tradewater, Tennessee, minor tributaries of the Mississippi River and minor tributaries of the Ohio River) within the boundaries of the Interior River Valleys and Hills (72), Mississippi Alluvial Plain (73), and Mississippi Valley Loess Plain (74).Transitional Areas (TR)Most boundaries between bioregions are not distinct. Watersheds or individual sites near boundaries may exhibit characteristics of more than one bioregion in these zones, or portions of these areas may be classifiable to one or another bioregion. HUC12s are marked as “Transitional” on this map where more than one bioregion is spanned by the HUC12 unit. Additionally, some HUC12 units in far western areas of the Pennyroyal bioregion, in sub-ecoregions 71a and 71f, have been marked as Transitional even though they are wholly within the Pennyroyal. These areas have been observed by KDOW to have varied stream types and some streams here are more similar to the neighboring MVIR bioregion. Assignment of watersheds or sites to bioregions in Transitional areas must be made based on examination of local features. KDOW personnel familiar with the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of bioregions make these assignments following the SOP “Bioregions of Kentucky for Water Quality Assessments of Biological Integrity “. The column “BioregDesc” in the attributes table indicates which specific bioregions are pertinent in Transitional HUC12 units.CitationsCompton, M.C., G.J. Pond, and J.F. Brumley. 2003.
