Hourly Palo Definition resent Sean, Enclosed is a proposed methodology for the Dow Jones Hourly Index.  Our longer term goal is to have this information posted to a website and available on an hourly basis, with perhaps a 2 or so hour delay.  That will take longer to implement and some firms have expressed reservation with receiving the information too early.  Presently, our goal is to have this information available to traders via email by 5:00 a.m. PT.  This is preliminary and your thoughts and comments would be appreciated. Cheers, Ernest Onukogu Energy Services Dow Jones & Company P.O.Box 300 Princeton, N.J. 08543-0300 609 520-4663  <>
