The Dow Jones Industrial Average ended September at fresh 2022 lows. Apple ( NASDAQ:AAPL ), Chevron ( NYSE:CVX ), Merck ( NYSE:MRK ), Microsoft ( NASDAQ:MSFT ), and UnitedHealth( NYSE:UNH ) are the top Dow Jones companies’ stocks to watch in October.
At the start of October, there were apparent winners—and losers. Chevron, Merck, and UnitedHealth were the top three Dow Jones stocks through September 30, with year-to-date gains of 22.4%, 12.4%, and 0.6%, respectively.
How Does The Dow Jones Industrial Average Work?
The Dow Jones Industrial Average, founded in 1896 with 12 companies, is one of the oldest stock market indices. There are 30 Dow Jones equities that are intended to act as a barometer for the whole stock market in the United States. The technology-heavy Nasdaq composite and the S&P 500 index — an index of the 500 biggest corporations in the United States — are two other important stock indices.
According to the IBD Big Picture, investors should concentrate on the top stocks that have good relative strength during the current stock market drop. If the Dow Jones Industrial Average can recover from its 2022 lows, it might be among the market’s leaders.
