I have some bad news for you about the Dow: the top 4 companies by market cap in the Dow are Nvidia, Microsoft, Apple, and Amazon.

It is simple really. "I do things when they are feasible do me. so others must do things when they are feasible to me"

I wasn't planning on investing in those. Aside from ideological reasons, I am pessimistic about their role in the economy.

I don't have access to the DOW directly, I would still have to choose individual stocks.

If you can buy individual stocks, then you absolutely do have access to the Dow in the form of a myriad of ETFs [1][2][3]. There are also numerous standard mutual funds which consist of all the companies in the DJIA. This is what I thought you were referring to when you said you'd invest in the Dow, hence my comment.
