The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at 8668 on 12/30/08, as the stock market went up today on news that GMAC, General Motors ( GM ) financial arm, received a 5 billion dollar TARP bailout. The Dow Jones has been hitting key resistance of 8600 all day and broke through it during the final hour. This was pretty much the market mover today as stocks moved higher on low volume once again. There were several hot stocks today! Northfield Labs ( NFLD ) was a hugge stock gainer today as this stock went up 120%. Other large gainers were Renesola ( SOL ), National Financial Partners ( NFP ), and Jones Apparel ( JNY ). These stocks should keep you busy tomorrow, the last day of the year. Look for volume to come back to the stock market on Monday.
