Nvidia To Take Intel’s Place in the Dow Jones Industrial Average

Artificial intelligence darling Nvidia (NVDA) is set to join the Dow Jones Industrial Average, replacing storied chipmaker Intel (INTC).

The change will take effect prior to the start of trading next Friday, Nov. 8, according to S&P Dow Jones Indices, which manages the blue-chip index.

Paint maker Sherwin-Williams (SHW) is also set to join the index, in the place of chemical giant Dow (DOW).

Nvidia shares climbed 3% in extended trading Friday following the news, while Sherwin-Williams jumped 5%. Dow’s stock price edged lower, as did Intel’s.

The announcement comes after a torrid year so far for Nvidia, with shares more than doubling since the start of 2024 as demand for its AI chips surged.

The chipmaker recently overtook Microsoft (MSFT) as the world’s second-largest company by market capitalization and has been closing in on Apple (APPL) for the top spot.

Meanwhile, Intel shares have lost more than half their value since the start of the year, as the chipmaker undergoes a massive restructuring to turn around the business. That’s despite a nearly 8% pop in Friday’s regular session after the chipmaker reported better-than-expected sales for the third quarter.
