The NASDAQ Composite Index hit a low of approximately 1,265 points on March 5, 2009, during the financial crisis, which followed a significant decline throughout 2008. By the end of 2008, the index had been significantly affected by the downturn, falling from its highs earlier in the year. The low point in 2008 itself was around 1,300 points in November, reflecting the overall market turmoil during that period.

What sector NASDAQ represents?

The NASDAQ stock exchange contains, for the most part, technology stocks. There are stocks such as Cisco, Apple, Microsoft, Dell, Oracle, etc. Nearly everyone uses it as the index for the technology sector because of this. If someone says that tech is flat for the year they would indicate the NASDAQ index's performance. Not all technology stocks are included in NASDAQ such as Hewlett-Packard or IBM. One factor that may cause this is that both of these companies are quite old (compared to the other tech). Both of them are on the NYSE. Hopefully this helps!

What were some of the weaknesses in the American economy in 2008 which have been labeled a recession year?

The idea that in 2008 or other years near that date consisted to be a "Great Depression" is false. As an example, the unemployment rate in the depression of the 1930's was 25% of the workplace. Also, a stock market crash was demonstrated on several occasions in the late twenties as an example. No such fall in prices to the extent of that economically recognized "crash" happened in 2008 or years near that year.Some of the weaknesses in the United States economy in the midst of the fall in stock prices were low quarterly economic growth numbers, an unstable employment level, low housing values and unconventional asset purchases by the Federal Reserve Bank of NY.
