My handful of stocks trade in Toronto, not NYC. I opted out of dead presidents, Wall St. and as much of the Ponzi scheme as I could shed decades ago. I wish I could say I didn't care what the Dow does but I can't. The Dow has a huge hidden role in the financial health or illness of the ZUSA - insurance, pensions, endowments, etc. Lots of sweet dumb people will suffer because of the miscreants who have brought us to this sorry pass. And there is no avoiding it for most of them.
