# Stock Markets Rise over 900 Points, biggest rise ever, um, did your stocks go up very much in value???

Published 2008-10-01

I didn't delve too deeply into who did well today, however, just for fun and research purposes I track a few dozen stocks. Hardly any of them had more than a one or two percent jump in "value" on a day when the stock market went up 11%. Somebody has some explaining to do.
