Here I’m going to talk about the Dow 30 Index and how I also see a lot of misunderstanding about this index or just plain wrong understanding of it. I'll talk about how it actually works and throw in a little history about it as well. Then I really get into how the Dow 30 has become the headline of most news outlets as the barometer of the market, and I'll argue that there's a huge disconnect between this and the everyday investor...and that you should...

When you go about building an investment portfolio there are basically two conflicting concepts of how to do that “indexing vs active management” and I'm here to say that S&P 500 index funds are NOT diversified like most people think because of how the index is actually calculated. In this episode we'll talk how that is, what a market capitalization weighted index really means, and how to use that knowledge in your own investing.
