Terrific Tuesday: Dow Marks 20th Consecutive Tuesday Gain

Tuesdays have been exceptionally good for the Dow Jones Industrial Average and if the index finishes higher today, it will mark the 20th consecutive positive Tuesday close.
 
The current streak is the longest Tuesday in history and the second longest ever for any day of the week. The last time Dow Jones even got this far was in 1927 when it closed up for 15 consecutive Tuesdays from June 1927 through September 1927.
 
In 1968, the the Dow rose for 24 straight Wednesdays from June through November.
