Dow nears record high set in 2000

The Dow Jones Industrials Average is within inches of its all-time closing high of 11,722.98 set in early 2000 before the bursting of the tech bubble.

Shortly after 11:30 a.m. today, the most widely stock market indicator stood within a whisp of the record at 11,716.29.

If a new record is set today, it will mean to took nearly seven years for stocks to return to the levels that preceded the 2000-to-2002 collapse.
