Sometimes it is denoted by putting a line above the variable that is being averaged. The "Expectation value" of a random variable - is like a weighted average. I'll explain by way of example: lets say X represents your grades in high school and how much weight should be given to each grade (not all courses are equal). X is a random variable.

E[X] or <X> or the Greek letter mu (µ) - are a few of the common symbols for the Expected Value of X - or your weighted average of high school grades.

What is stock symbol for Dow Jones industrial average?

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%.

What is the ticker symbol for the Dow Jones Industrial Average?

The ticker symbol for the Dow Jones industrial average = $DJX; at least this is for practical purposes because this is the symbol to input if you want to know the average at any point in time. Can you buy something with this symbol as you would buy a stock or a stock fund? The answer to this is no. If you want to buy the average, so to speak, then look for an Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) that carries the 30 stocks of the DOW. Likely some ETF's may closely replicate the DOW, but may not be exactly the same. This question is for future research and one example is an iShare with ticker = IYJ. There are many ETF's out there. Check 'em out.
