Dow Jones (America) and Sensex (India) Update 2012
America, the US is the largest economy having biggest Stock markets. India is an emerging economy and doing very well since last few years. Stock market in India Is catching eyes of the investors. Indian stock market has been showing extra ordinary growth for last couple of decades. However, it started attracting foreign investors only since last few years.
Dow Jones Industrial Average represents Share market in America and Mumbai Stock Exchange sensitive Index or Sensex represents Indian stock market. Comparison of both these stock markets is very interesting. It is very important for global investors, financial analysts, share brokers, researchers etc.
I have written an article comparing historical data of both the stock markets since their inception. I have provided updated information of both Dow Jones and Sensex in another article.
I have been providing comparative data for the year 2012 for both stock markets. I will periodically provide data updated.

Why updates needed?
Stock markets are dynamic. It changes frequently. Markets go up and down every moment in trading sessions. Price of an individual stock change and that effects the whole market. Value of a particular share depends on several economic, political and social factors.
Stock markets reacts very fast over economic and political news. It rises and plunges. Frequent updates are required to keep an eye on the stock markets. It is more relevant while comparing two markets from distance regions of the world.
Both India and America are big players in world economy. One is an emerging economy while other is the biggest economy in the world till date.
Updates are nothing but current data and one can keep oneself current with both the markets. I am continually updating this article with fresh and current data. I believe that this will help you in monitoring both American and Indian stock markets.
