Dow Jones index slides 2.2% as intraday swings reach 2.41%
The Dow Jones index fell 2.2% to 829.75 on June 5, with an intraday amplitude of 2.41% as selling pressure intensified throughout the session.
The index opened at 848.29 and briefly touched a high of 848.37 before reversing course. It dropped to a low of 827.92 — a decline of 20.45 points from peak to trough — and closed near the bottom of the range at 829.75, indicating sustained bearish momentum.
The 2.41% intraday swing ranked among the widest trading ranges for the index in recent sessions. The close near the session low suggested sellers maintained control, with no significant buying support emerging into the close.
The move raises the stakes for the next session. The 827.92 low now serves as a key support level; a break below could accelerate selling. Conversely, a recovery above the 848.29 open would signal a potential reversal and draw buyers back in.
