If you haven't checked the stock market today, you'd better take a look. It was nothing short of an extraordinary session for the S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) and most ASX 200 shares this Tuesday.

As we covered earlier this afternoon, today saw the ASX 200 vault notably higher and mint a new record high. At market close, the index had jumped by 0.89% and is now sitting at 8,374 points after hitting a new record of 8,446.4 points in earlier trade.

With a gain (and record high) of this magnitude, it won't come as a shock to most readers to learn that more than a few ASX 200 shares also minted fresh 52-week, or all-time highs, this Tuesday. In fact, no fewer than 17 ASX 200 stocks have seen their all-time records reset during today's session.

Let's go through all 17.

What stands out with these new highs?

It was evidently a phenomenal day for ASX 200 shares, with stocks of all walks of the market pushing higher to new records. We've got a bank in CBA, tech shares Xero and Wisetech, and other assorted blue chips like Qantas and JB Hi-Fi.

It's hard to say for sure what prompted these dramatic gains today, although we did discuss some possible catalysts earlier this afternoon. Rising American markets and a bump in commodity prices are at least partially responsible.

Let's see what happens on the ASX 200 over the rest of this trading week.
