The correlation between SPX and the DJIA will generally be quite high, because sampling 30 stocks (and generally those with the biggest market caps) gives you a good estimate/representation. As a result, over short periods of time, the spread between the two will be relatively small. Over long periods of time however, the spread can be significant.

(Compare 1, 2, 3 and 5 years) |
