Guest guest Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 Hello Prem and list, The following information available on the internet may shed additional light on this issue. The question arises, after reviewing the historical information, if an earlier times should be researched for both the Standard & Poor´s index and the Dow Jones Industrial Average. Regarding the S & P 500, the issue involves if it should be taken as a brand new index. If so, then it would be appropriate to use the data for 1957. If, on the other hand, there was simply an (albeit important) upgrade in the measurement methodology of an existing index then perhaps an earlier time would yield a better result. Finally, only accurate predictions can establish the authenticity of such charts. Best regards, C " The origins of the Standard & Poor's 500 Index go back to 1923, when S & P presented a series of indices that included 233 companies grouped into 26 industries. In 1957 S & P introduced the 500 and has expanded its representation over the years to encompass approximately 90 specific industry groups. Four major industry sectors have also been developed: Industrials, Utilities, Financials, and Transportation. The number of companies in each major industry sector has been allowed to " float " since 1988 in order to enable the S & P Index Committee to react efficiently to an increasingly dynamic economy and stock market. In contrast, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA), which was first published in 1884, is based on a narrow set of stocks and a different calculation methodology. The DJIA is a price-weighted average tracking the stock performance of 30 blue chip companies. While the Dow Jones Industrial Average is adjusted for stock splits and referred to as an index in the financial media, the DJIA measures average price movement only, without regard to market value. As a result, the higher-priced stocks within the DJIA often have a greater effect on the DJIA Index than the lower-priced ones. A large change in the price of just one DJIA component often may account for more than 50% of the Dow's daily price movement; that is unlikely to happen with the S & P 500 Index.
