   Does 'the Dow' mean the stock market?

   • “Mention ‘the Dow’ and, to most people, that means the stock market,” said market strategist Art Hogan. “The Dow Jones industrial average is an instant way of telling the world which way the market is moving, even if the average isn’t an accurate measure of the thousands of stocks listed on the nation’s exchanges.”

   Why do traders look down their nose at the Dow?

   • Serious traders sometimes look down their nose at the Dow because of the way it ranks companies by share price, rather than by market capitalization, like the S&P 500 does. Market capitalization measures the total value of a company on the stock market. In the Dow, a smaller company with less relevance to the economy can outweigh a bigger company.

   Is the Dow an anachronistic index?

   • There’s nothing magical about the Dow. It’s just an index that tracks the stock market activity of 30 large US companies, from Amazon to McDonald’s to the Walt Disney Company. But it is very old, and that’s partly why it sticks around. “The Dow is, no doubt, an anachronistic index,” says Daniel Alpert, managing partner of Westwood Capital.
