SPDR DOW JONES INDUSTRIAL AVERAGE ETF TRUST

# SPDR DOW JONES INDUSTRIAL AVERAGE ETF TRUST (DIA)

DIA is an exchange-traded fund that tracks the Dow Jones Industrial Average, a price-weighted index of 30 large-cap U.S. companies. The fund holds substantially all component stocks of the DJIA in proportions that mirror the index methodology. As a passive index tracker, DIA generates revenue through management fees charged to shareholders rather than traditional business operations. The fund is structured as a unit investment trust and is listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

The portfolio comprises equity positions in multinational corporations spanning diverse sectors including financial services, technology, healthcare, industrials, and consumer goods. Holdings include companies such as Microsoft, JPMorgan Chase, Coca-Cola, and Boeing, among others. The fund's composition reflects the index's price-weighting methodology, meaning higher-priced stocks have greater portfolio influence regardless of market capitalization.

With approximately $39.8 billion in assets under management, DIA is among the largest equity ETFs in the United States. The fund serves retail and institutional investors seeking broad U.S. large-cap market exposure through a single security. As a passively managed fund, DIA does not maintain traditional employee headcount or generate revenue through business operations; instead, it operates under a management agreement with State Street Global Advisors.
