Cisco Added to the DJIA
"Dow Jones added Cisco "because its communications and computer-networking products are vital to an economy and culture still adapting to the Information Age — just as automobiles were essential to America in the 20th Century," Thomson said. He has the final say on changes to the index."

I'm surprised that Cisco wasn't already on there TBH.
IMO Cisco's addition is about 10 years late. At one time (around '99, pre-bust), they were seen as the mostly likely company to first hit a $1 trillion market cap.

I would expect that anyone holding Cisco will get a good little bump as all of the funds, etc.. that track the DJIA will have to buy Cisco to add to their portfolios...
