They calculate the Dow by adding together the prices of the 30 stocks that comprise the Dow Jones Industrial Average, then dividing by a figure that's SUPPOSED to linearize the DJIA. It takes into account things like stock splits. Right now, the divisor is below one, so the DJIA is higher than the combined stock prices of the 30 companies in the DJIA. The DJIA is generally held as an indicator of the health of the market. There are better indices--the Standard & Poor's 500 is a good one--but the Dow is traditional.
