What Does the Dow Jones Industrial Average Measure?
The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) is one of the best-known stock market indexes in the United States. The index, which is owned by S&P Dow Jones Indices (launched by McGraw-Hill and the CME Group), measures the daily price movements of 30 large American companies on the Nasdaq and the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). It is widely viewed as a proxy for general market conditions and the U.S. economy as a whole.
Launched in 1896, the DJIA consists of blue-chip stocks, approximately two-thirds of which are represented by companies producing industrial and consumer goods. The rest are chosen from all the major sectors of the economy, including information technology, entertainment, and financial services.
