通用汽车的破产导致其被道琼斯工业平均指数除名，道琼斯工业平均指数由30只股票价格的加权平均数构成。

GM's bankruptcy caused it to be removed from the Dow Jones Industrial average, a weighted average of 30 stocks.

2002年11月22日，该除数等于0.14585278，因此假如你用这一天上述股票价值的平均数除以这个除数，就会得到当天道琼斯指数的收市点数为8804.84。

So if you took the average cost of each of these stocks on November 22 and divided this number by 0.14585278, you'd get the closing value of the DJI on that date which was 8804.84.

因此，你每天晚上从新闻所了解到的道琼斯指数，都只不过是这些股票价值的一个加权平均数，正因为如此，道琼斯指数只能作为衡量它自身价值的一个数值来考虑。

So the Dow Jones number you hear in the news each night is simply this weighted average of stock prices. Because of this, the Dow Jones Industrial average should just be considered a price in itself.
