<p>[QUOTE=&quot;treehugger, post: 1337501, member: 28451&quot;]I don&#039;t agree with this at all. There are many, many more people who own an S &amp; P Index Fund as opposed to a DJIA 30 Index Fund. If you were performing research, would you rather have a test group of 500 or a test group of 30. The S &amp; P de facto provides a much wider sample of how the stock market really performed. Among investment professionals, the S &amp; P 500 is the benchmark most often utilized. In the interest of full disclosure, the S &amp; P basically broke even on an appreciation basis for 2011.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
