TECH Amazon to replace Walgreens in Dow Industrial Average on February 26 PUBLISHED TUE, FEB 20 20245:25 PM ESTUPDATED 2 MIN AGO Amazon CEO Andy Jassy speaks with CNBC’s Jon Fortt. CNBC Amazon will replace Walgreens Boots Alliance in the Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P Dow Jones Indices, which manages the group of 30 stocks, said on Tuesday. Amazon shares moved up 1% in extended trading, and Walgreens stock moved 3% lower. The move will result in more exposure to the online retailer for investors who bet on the average, which is far smaller than the S&P 500 index. The change goes into effect prior to market open on Feb. 26. “Reflecting the evolving nature of the American economy, this change will increase consumer retail exposure as well as other business areas in the DJIA,” S&P Dow Jones Indices said in a statement. The company said the revision was “prompted” by Walmart’s 3-for-1 stock split, resulting in lower index weight for Walmart. Today’s Amazon is more than just retail. Since 2021, it’s been run by Andy Jassy, who built up Amazon’s cloud business. That segment now gives Amazon 14% of total revenue. Amazon’s arrival in the Dow Jones average comes three years after business software maker Salesforce joined, along with Amgen and Honeywell International. This is breaking news.

百年传统要保持，而且是看起来很 stupid 的简单平均，不是如标普500 那样市值加权平均
IBM 已经在里头呆了大几十年不太容易被踢走，不过有前例 GE 呆了快百年也能踢走
