The Nasdaq Composite was last reported at 26,605.36, down 0.32% on the day, after trading near 26,637.17 earlier in the session. Recent coverage said the index had risen 5.19% over the prior week, with gains linked to a weaker-than-expected July jobs report and a rise in expectations for easier Federal Reserve policy. Other reports said the index had also logged a four-day run of daily gains of at least 1%, described as a rare pattern in its history, while some coverage pointed to a recent month gain of about 2.8% to 2.9%.

What these figures mean

Written by gpt-5.4-mini

Over the trailing year, the Nasdaq Composite rose by 24.3%, while its annualised volatility of 18.5% means its price has tended to move around by a fairly noticeable amount over a year rather than staying close to one level. The largest peak-to-trough fall was -13.2%, which means that at one point during the period it dropped 13.2% from a previous high before recovering. With a period high of 27,093.90 and a period low of 20,794.64, the current price being 92% of the way from the low to the high means it is much nearer the high than the low.
