“The benchmark index has gained more than 2,700 points since the beginning of 2006, and went from 13,000 to 14,000 in only 58 days. Before that, it only took 126 days for the Dow to move from 12,000 to 13,000, which happened on April 25.
In contrast, it took seven years for the index to make the 1,000-point jump from 11,000 to 12,000.”
