I guess they could be paying the delivery guy shite and letting him make money on tips, but how much do you think the average restaurant is really willing to pay this company.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average, or DJIA, is a stock index comprised of 30 different companies traded on the Nasdaq and the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE. The DJIA covers a number of different sectors. The companies included range from Apple to Exxon Mobil to Goldman Sachs.
The others represent industries as diverse as financial services, entertainment and information technology. Even so, the DJIA today serves the same purpose for which it was created â to provide a clear, straightforward view of the stock market and, by extension, the U.S. economy. When Charles H. Dow first unveiled his industrial stock average on May 26, 1896, the stock market was not highly regarded. Prudent investors bought bonds, which paid predictable amounts of interest and were backed by real machinery, factory buildings and other hard assets.
