With Dow Chemical buying Union Carbide, that will leave an opening on the DJIA. Can anyone think of a good reason why the largest market cap company around (MSFT) shouldn't be a logical replacement? They were talking about that on CNBC this morning. UK is the only chemical company on the DJIA and would likely be replaced with a like company, according the the Talking Heads' speculations.
