The Dow closed Wednesday at 8504.06 up 57.06 up 0.68% from Tuesday's close of 8447. 24 of the Dow 30 gained and 6 declined (AXP, BAC, BA, PFE and WMT).

A read of Wednesday's 7/1/09/09 print editions of: Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Atlanta Journal Constitution, Financial Times, Investor's Business Daily and USA Today yielded the following stories about Dow Jones 30 component companies:

WMT Wal-Mart broke ranks with the nation's largest employers by announcing that it supports requiring employers to provide health insurance to workers. This will give a big boost to Pres. Obama's effort to provide coverage to all Americans. There are 46 million uninsureds in U.S. This was the front page story at WSJ p1 and also AJC pA10.

At WSJ pB1 is a story, "GE to Obtain Stem Cells from Geron for Research" and also at Fin Times p17 wherein it is reported that biotech company Geron agreed to provide stem cells to GE's GE Healthcare for use in tools that will test for the toxic effects of drug treatments which will take GE deeper into stem-cell research. This is also reported at WSJ pC6. GE is also mentioned at WSJ pB7 about Joost NV an online video service replacing its CEO. The story says Joost competes with YouTube and also Hulu LLC, a joint venture of Newws Corp., and GE's NBC Universal and Dis Walt Disney. Hulu is dedicated to tv programs. Same info is reported @ Fin Times p14

WSJ @pB4 says PFE Pfizer has promised to make changes to its proposed takeover of rival Wyeth in order to win European Union regulator aproval for the deal. The takeover is also mentioned @WSJ pC10 as one of the first quarter's largest deals.

WSJ @PB5, IBD @p4 and Fin Tim @ p17 says Dis Walt Disney said it will fund a $452 million expansion of its Hong Kong Disneyland park there.

WSJ @pC3 said software company LogMein Inc.'s ipo priced at $16 at the high end of the expected range. The IPO was co-managed by JPM JPM Morgan Chase. Same page it is said that JPM is the latest bank to consider boosting salaries for its workers instead of relying on the old bonus system and it says BAC Bank of Am may follow this trend. A story @ WSJ pC8 says JPM among other banks sold bonds without guarantees from FDIC recently to show they are strong enough to tap the capital markets without gov. assistance. At WSJ pC10 a story about large deals said that in the rankings of merger advisers for the first half of the year Golldman Sachs was first followed by JPM, Morgan Stanley third then Citigroup and Bank of Amer Merrill Lynch.

CAT headlines a story, "Catepillar Falls to Lead the Dow Down on the Day" @ WSJ pC6 that also mentions JNJ Johnson & Johnsons loss of .16 down to 58.60 as a result of the $1.67 patent infringement lawsuit it lost. CAT's drop is also noted at USA Today @p4b saying it lost as a result of the Conference Board's sentiment index slumping to 49.3%, 6 ponts below the average forecast. USA Today also said JPM Morgan dropped because gov. data showed prime mortgages 60 days or more past due climbed to 2.9% in the first quarter up from 1.1% same time last year.

IBD @pA2 & AJC pA4 says Abbott will appeal the ruling to pay $1.6 billion to JNJ.

A question is asked @WSJ pC20: "Why did BP try to develop an Iraqui oil field on terms that XOM Exxon Mobil and others rejected?"

WSJ @pD6 reports that two AXP Amex units agreed to pay half a million in fines after being cited by US regulators for unfair practices involving their failure to honor convenience checks.

Fin Times @p14 has a story "Bidders cool on BofA asset manager" saying that BAC may divide Columbia Mangement, the asset management unit it is trying to sell, into two pieces, in an effort to generate a higher price for the business. BAC is trying to get $3 bil. BAC is mentioned in lead story @ NYTimes pB1 Business Day has having a good quarter with its stock soaring 94%, AXP up 71% and MSFT up 29%.

Fin Times @p22 on yesterday's market notes HD Home Depot fell 1% to 3.63, CVX Chevron lost .9% to 66.25, XOM Exxon Mobil lsot 1% to 69.91.
