Where can I track the P/E ratio of the Dow Industrial Average?

There are two ways to do this. One is to actually go to the dow jones website where they break out the information or two, is to take an arithmeetic average of the P/E of all 30 components (IBM, MSFT, WMT, DELL, etc)

The easiest and least inexpensive way is to use one of the various financial sites that monitor the market.  They all offer some form of portfolio tracker.  All you have to do is enter the ticker symbol and they will virtually do the rest.  If you check it on a daily basis, as long as you've calculated the mean purchase price, the portfolio tracker will give you your daily value.\n\nExcel is even a greater tool if you want to do graphical functions because it gives you a greater control of formulas and numerical values.

i think you're referring to the price/earning ratio, a tool used by investors to evaluate the value of a stock.  Here's a link to Investopedia that better explains it:

I dont happen to know of a screener or anything which will search according to that parameter.\n\nThere may be,,,but I dont know one.\n\nThe closest thing to yield that info,,that I know of,,\nIs at  Barchart.com\n\nhttp://www2.barchart.com/whotupmn.asp\n\nThey have the feature listed on l/h side menu.\nUnder,,"MARKETS">"What's Hot"\n\nIt returns "hottest" Gainers for  Day,Week,or Month,,\nand grouped according to Exchange,,NAZ,AMEX,NYSE,OTC:BB\n\nIt's USUALLY pretty accurate,,,,occasionally I catch a misquoted one\n\nThere's also a section on WHAT'S NOT(hot) aka biggest Losers in each respective period/exchange.\n\n......\nThere's also some useful data listed under "SECTORS" heading near top/center of the page.\n\nhttp://www2.barchart.com/secmoves.asp?sort=6\n\nYou can view industries/sectors as a composite of the relative stocks,,,,and see the Group's activity over 1~3~6~9~12 Month intervals.\n\nHope that helps

One place to look can be found in the Dow Jones dividend ETF DVY.  Go to the list of the holdings and take a look.  Currently the full basket pays something like 3.3 percent dividend, which is an average of what the stocks included pay.  As with averages, there are those above it an those below it.  With the Dow Jones Dividend index they are steady paying stocks, which sounds like good dividend experience to me.  You can buy DVY for something around $68 a share, or pick out something you like from the list of those included.
