On January 1, 2013, the U.S. stock markets were closed for New Year's Day, so the Dow Jones Industrial Average did not have an official closing value on that date. However, the last closing value before January 1, 2013, was 13,104.14 on December 31, 2012. This figure reflects the performance of the index just before the new year began.
On January 1, 2011, the stock market was closed for the New Year's Day holiday, so there was no official Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) value that day.

There is not really a stock symbol for the Dow Jones Industrial Average as it is simply an average composed of (and tracks) 30 different large/diverse American companies. However, there is a symbol/security that tracks the Dow Jones Industrial Average and moves in direct correlation with it, and that is "DIA". Basically speaking, if the Dow Jones goes up 1%, then the DIA will be up 1%.
