Nasdaq Gained 122 Points on Oct. 6 as 182 Stocks Hit New Lows

The Nasdaq Composite added 122.48 points on Oct. 6, 2026, MarketWatch reported, yet posted 61 new 52-week highs against 182 new lows, per Reuters. A 52-week low is a stock's cheapest price in a year. I see narrow leadership here: index gains can hide broad weakness for savers in index funds.
