The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) is periodically updated to reflect changes in the economy and the stock market. Stocks can be added or removed from the index based on various factors, including a company's financial health and changes in its industry. This ensures that the DJIA remains a relevant benchmark for the performance of the U.S. stock market.
