The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) closed at a record high of 45,631.74 on August 22, 2025.

Optimism has been fueled by Fed Chair Jerome Powell signaling that an interest rate cut may be coming, helping lift markets.

The question now is whether the Dow can hold above the 45,000 threshold through the end of September or if we’ll see a correction.

Resolves YES if the Dow’s official closing value on Tuesday, September 30, 2025 is ≥ 45,000.
