NYT pB9 "Wall St. Ends Higher After 3 Day Fall, but Concerns Persist" by javier C. Hernandez says Wall St shares closed higher on Mon as investors tried to look beyond the blistering losses of the prior week. Talk of the potential for more steep declines lingered, however, as traders nervously studied data on the fragile housing market and reports of more layoffs.

USA Today p4B "Stocks rise with Bernanke's chances" by AP says brightening prospects for the reappointment of Fed Reserve Board chair Ben Bernanke lifted stocks Mon after last week's sell off.

WSJ pC1 "Exchanges Want to Take Stock Quotes Below a Cent" by Jacob Bunge says major US stock exchanges are pushing regulators to allow price quotes in increments as small as a tenth of a cent as part of a push to become more attractive to electronic traders who have left their platforms for private pools. US listed stocks have been quoted in once cent increments since '01, prior to that it was in eighths of a dollar.

As of the open of the market Tuesday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of today's Wall St. Jrnl is .132319125 unchanged, the trailing P/E ratio is 16.96 unchanged from Monday morning's 16.92 (year ago it was 18.556) the P/E estimate is 13.30 unchanged from Monday's 13.30 (year ago it was 9.87) and the current dividend yield is 2.69 unchanged from Monday's 2.69 (it was 3.88 a year ago).

Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,349.24 up 3.16 from Friday's closing Dow numerator of 1,346.08. 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 of 3.16 for Monday by the divisor you get the increase in Monday's Dow close of 23.88.

The average closing price (the closing numerator divided by 30) of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was 44.97 up 0.10 from Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing price of $44.87. The median closing price of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was 38.99 up 0.16 from Friday's $38.83.

If Monday morning before the market opened you had purchased 100 shares of each of the Dow Jones Industrial Average 30 shares (assuming you could buy fractional shares and assuming no transaction costs) and sold at the close you would have made $300 (134,910 - $134,610).

AT&T T $25.58 +0.19 0.75% 29,899,609 NYSE: WSJ pC14 "Investors: Beware Verizon's Generation Gap" by martin Peers says Verizon Communications, whose 55% owned wireless arm is pouring billions of dollar into a rollout of 4th generation cellular tech as it will be the first in the US to launch Long Term Evolution, or LTE, to extend its leadership in wireless. LTE uses radio spectrum more efficiently, improving network capacity. VZ already spent $9.4 bil in '08 to upgrade its cell infrastructure. But the payoff for LTE is uncertain because it could take customers a long time to actually use it. Initially Verizon may offer 4G only for laptop cards because when VZ introduces LTe, compatible devices will be scarce. Vodafone, the other owner of Verizon Wireless is taking its time on 4G as it is instead focusing on upgrades to its 3G technology using High Speed Packet Access. AT&T is using HPSA to improve its speeds.
