What's a 'one-month low'?

A 'one-month low' means the stock market indices had fallen to their lowest point in the past month before this slight climb. It indicates a recent period of weaker performance. Even a small increase, like the 0.1% mentioned, can be seen as positive news after such a dip, suggesting a potential turnaround.
