No, but in terms of its use for forecasting purposes, it beats chicken entrails...

DJIA is not the economy, but it's a darn good leading indicator of economic confidence in large publicly traded companies, who make up a big chunk of the economy.

Think of the DJIA as the coalminers parakeet.

You know?, I always hear people say that, but every time the DOW goes up, my 401k and IRA do the same.

It may not be your economy but it sure the hell is mine.

Yes! The DJI has nothing to do with the economy. </sarcasm>
