DJIA numbers
Date Open High Low Close Volume Adj. Close*
10-Oct-29 346.66 355.63 345.63 352.86 4000000 352.86
2-Jan-70 800.36 813.56 797.32 809.2 8050000 809.2
What cost $1 in 1929 would cost $2.14 in 1970.
So, in 1929 dollars:
Oct 1929 was 352.86
Jan 1970 was 164.89
If you bought the DJIA in 1929, you would end up with stocks worth half as much in 1970.
Practically, the stock market has managed a high rate of return in the 1970s through 2000s.
.... this is rather strange. I'm missing data, that can't be right.
