Post #100 The following is brought to you by Intellivest Securities Research, Inc. The following is not intended as advertising by a broker-dealer and is not a research report. Towards the end of this Blog is an update of the Dow 30's most recent SEC filings as of 9/4/09.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Thursday at 9627.48 up 80.26 or 0.84% from Wednesday's close of 9547.22. Of the 30 Dow Companies: 21 gained and 9 declined with the biggest loser being Kraft KFT $26.19 -0.66 2.46% 23,718,729 NYSE and the biggest gainer being Procter & Gamble PG $56.04 +2.28 4.24% 26,137,885 NYSE.

The current divisor for the Dow found at today's page C4 of The Wall St. Jrnl is .132319125 unchanged.

Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1273.90 up 10.62 from Wednesday's closing Dow numerator of 1263.28. This is the sum of all 30 closing prices. A short cut to the Dow numerator is to multiply the closing Dow by the Divisor.

Now, if you divide the Dow numerator increase for today of 10.62 by the divisor you get 80.26, the increase in Thursday's Dow close.

The average closing price (the closing numerator divided by 30) of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was 42.26 up 0.35 from Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing price of 42.11. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was 38.71 up 0.23 from Wednesday's Dow Jones median closing price of 38.48.

($127,390 - $126,330)
