The Dow Jones Industrial Average is not only a Wall Street thermometer, but also a benchmark for the U.S. economy. More than 100 years ago, it was precisely because of Charles I.D. invented this index that the hourly changes in the capital world can be measured digitally. The Wall Street Journal is the largest circulation newspaper in the United States and one of the most authoritative financial media in the world.
