That is true if the services that report the cash averages do it almost
immediately after the open before any stocks that have opened have
 not hit the computer. If no stocks show having opened the cash index
will be unchanged.  If one or more stocks open and the price change is
in the computer the cash opening, first print, will reflect that change.
