The Dow Jones Industrials ( ^DJI 0.01% ) managed to gain almost 21 points on Monday, taking only partial advantage of the favorable mood that sent the broader market up more dramatically. Even hard-hit small-cap stocks saw better gains Monday, rebounding despite ongoing concerns about whether the long bull market in the Dow and in the stock market generally is coming to an end. Financial stocks Goldman Sachs ( GS 0.66% ) and JPMorgan Chase ( JPM 1.93% ) were among the best performers in the Dow Jones Industrials today, but McDonald's ( MCD 0.07% ) lost ground.
