S&P 500 Tech Stocks Surpass Dot-Com Peak

22 July 2017. On Wednesday, Standard & Poor’s index of 500 stocks in the information technology industry closed at 992.29, its highest point since March 2000, at the height of the dot-com boom, when the index reached 988.49. Investment analysts attribute recent gains to better-than-expected profits for a number of companies in the technology sector.

Yesterday, the index closed down slightly at 991.97, which still represents an increase of more than 31 percent in the past year. The following chart is courtesy of Statista.
