ATH is all-time high.

I only follow the S&P 500, as it is by far the best measure of the three (Dow, S&P 500, and Nasdaq) of the total U.S. stock market and far more representative of what people have on average. But see bottom of this post for a graph of the DOW, which closed at 41,584, down 716 points (-1.7%) for the day.

The S&P 500 closed Friday March 28 at 5581, down 2.0% for the day,

and down 3.5% from the 5783 election day level,

and down 6.9% from the inauguration-eve level,

and down 5.1% year-to-date,

and down 9.2% from its all-time closing high of 6144 on Feb 19.
