There are two totally different markets out there right now, and it is causing great consternation for many of its participants. The first market is reflected in the action in the DJIA and S&P 500. This is primarily comprised of big-cap, value stocks that are favored by large funds and buy-and-hold investors. Many of these stocks have slow-and-steady growth and lower levels of volatility. A good example is Dow, Inc. (DOW) , the chemical company that is part of the DJIA.
