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:
Microsoft revenue
was $110 billion
Cargill revenue was
$106.7 billion

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.
