AAPL bulls would probably argue that the stock will not be the fifth largest holding in the index forever if the stock continues its meteoric rise (+15.58% YTD, +68.26% in trailing one year period, +307.87% in trailing five year period) but the concerns that existed previously about inserting a $400 or $500 stock into the DJIA and having the index zig and zag unduly at times perhaps due to AAPL’s “overweight” are not really a concern the
way things set up here at the moment. AAPL’s index inclusion into the DJIA will be finalized by the open of trading on Thursday, March 19.
