US oil and gas production is in the process of doubling. 9 of the companies above are in oil and gas. Energy is a big deal. Not all energy is consumed equally across the world. An estimated 16 percent of the world's population — 1.2 billion people — have little or no access to electricity.-Sep 15, 2017.  6 of the companies are auto manufacturers. These are growth markets.

There are 12 companies that do banking, financial services and lending. We are globally over-leveraged in debt and cyber security is needed. These are markets that should shrink as over-borrowing recedes.

There are 6 companies doing healthcare and our healthcare costs are too high. This industry includes pharma, providers and insurers. These markets should recede as cost reductions hit. When prices are too high, consumers buy less. Government subsidies need to be reduced.

There are many US companies we are familiar with whose revenues are not over $110 billion in 2018. Some notables are:

Dow companies in Bold Type above are not the biggest companies.  The Dow 30 comes from a subjective decision to include companies with name recognition, even if life has passed them by. These companies seem to be well politically connected to the Dow pickers.
