Chuck Jaffe: It's Time To Ditch The Dow Jones Industrial Average

TedTed
edited October 2014 in The Bullpen
FYI: Chuck's boss, the editor of MarketWatch, recently decreed that this news site will no longer use pictures of traders at the New York Stock Exchange to illustrate what’s happening on the stock market.

Jeremy Olshan’s point was that it’s anachronistic to show traders today because “the stock market ditched Wall Street years ago,” to the point where what’s exchanged on the floor at 11 Wall Street now are “camera flashes, sound bites and high-fives.”
Regards,
Ted
