Frequently asked questions
How was this list built?
Constituents: Wikipedia, “List of Dow Jones Industrial Average companies” (crawled 4 Nov 2026). The Dow is price-weighted and committee-selected; Alphabet (Class A) joined on 29 June 2026. Sector labels follow the same source. Index membership changes over time; this is a snapshot dated 5 November 2026.
Why does one company get one page when it has two share classes?
Dual-class companies (for example Alphabet's Class A and Class C shares) are a single company with a single chief executive, so they are profiled once — the count on this page is companies, not share classes.
Where do the CEO names and dates come from?
From company leadership pages, filings and widely reported announcements available in November 2026. Where a chief executive could not be verified confidently, the profile says so rather than guessing. The ten largest companies on each list carry fully researched profiles with sourced quotes and interview links.
Is this investment advice?
No. CEO Analytics is an information and education project about corporate leadership. Nothing here is a recommendation to buy or sell any security.
