	Fool.com: History of the Dow
		The Dow Jones Industrial Average started with just 12 stocks in 1886 and grew to its current 30-stock roster in two big jumps: in 1916 the average was expanded from 12 to 20 stocks; and, in 1928, the final move from 20 to 30 stocks was made.
		When Dow created his first Average (now the Transportation Average), he simply divided the total of all the prices by eleven (the number of stocks on the Average) to get his result.
		To maintain the Average at its actual level of 100.00, the divisor of the Average is systematically altered.

	Market rise catches some by surprise - Pittsburgh Tribune-Review
		The most recent example of this began June 4 when the transportation average was able to surpass a technically significant level while the industrial average remained locked in its trading range.
		Once the transportation average set a recovery high, traders realized that its movement no longer could be ignored, regardless of what motivated it.
		But, as the Dow Theory suggests, the industrial average failing to confirm the new high in the transportation group would imply that the recent upturn was nothing more than another rally in a frustratingly elongated trading range.

		While the Dow Jones Industrial Average might be the most well known, it's not the oldest index put together by Charles Dow.

		However, according to Dow Theory, the recent high in the transportation average is not bullish because it has not been accompanied by new highs in the Dow Jones Industrial Average ($INDU).
		Based on the early work of Charles Dow, the originator of both the transportation and the industrial averages, the theory is a form of technical analysis that addresses both price action and fundamentals.
		According to Dow Theory, the industrials will have to catch up to the transports soon or, since the two averages are not confirming each other, the recent bullish market trend is likely to reach a very nasty end.
