2.Not meaningless at all. Yes, the Dow stocks are represented in the S&P. However, in the context of 401(K)/mutual fund investment options (which was the context of my response), I can choose to invest in exchange-traded funds (ETF's). There are ETF options that are designed to track the performance of the Dow, or the S&P, or the NASDAQ, etc. The performance of an ETF mimicking, for example, the Dow versus one mimicking the S&P are going to be quite different.
1) They "media" your refencing is meaningless given that it is not a single entity and is reporting both sides and more of the issue. But keep on selling you spin.

2) My point remains valid regardless of your additional deflecting incoherency.
