SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF (NYSEARCA:DIA)

Week: 0.8%
YTD: 8.3%

Lastly, let’s look at an ETF tracking one of the most oft-cited indexes in the financial landscape. Nothing to go crazy about in the weekly performance, to be sure, but keep in mind that blue-chip stocks have been setting all-time records day after day, and only on Friday did the index break its legendary 10-day run, the best since 1996. Paying a mere 0.17% per year to gain exposure to 30 of the most esteemed and dominant companies in America is a small price to pay, especially when corporate profits are enjoying what some have labeled as a “golden age.”
