The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Wednesday at 11045.27 up 53.28 or 0.48% from Tuesday's close of 10991.91. Of the 30 Dow Companies: gained and declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was IBM $130.1 +1.28 0.99% 7,122,626 NYSE and percentage-wise was JPMorgan JPM $43.46 +1.05 2.48% 48,544,047 NYSE.

Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,461.50 up 7.05 from Tuesday's closing numerator of 1,454.45. This is the sum of all 30 closing prices.

A $1 change in the price of any DJIA stock = a 7.56 change in the average.

Market Watch 4/2810 5:08 p.m. by Kate Gibson says US stocks on Wednesday made a moderate rebound after stronger earnings and a Federal Reserve commitment to keep rates low offset investor unease over Southern Europe's sovereign debt problems.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average (INDU 11,045, +53.50, +0.49%) ended up 53.28 points, or 0.5%, to 11,045.27, led by a 2.5% rise in J.P. Morgan Chase Co. (JPM 43.61, +0.15, +0.35%) shares and a 1.8% gain in Bank of America Corp. (BAC 17.82, +0.04, +0.23%) . Financial stocks also led the S&P 500 higher, getting a lift from some earnings reports, a stalled debate on a bank-reform bill and the Fed's pledge to keep rates low. The S&P 500 SPX 1,191, +7.65, +0.65%) ended up 7.65 points, or 0.7%, to 1,191.36, boosted by more than 1% gain in financials and energy sectors. The Nasdaq Composite (COMP 2,472, +0.26, +0.01%) rose 0.26 point, or 0.01%, to 2,471.73.
The major stock indexes, which had dropped sharply in the prior session and wavered in early Wednesday trading, solidified their gains after the Fed reiterated economic conditions warrant leaving rates low for what is likely to be an extended period. The Fed has left rates at an historic low of 0% to 0.25% as it awaits more signs the economy is firmly on the mend. Stocks faltered briefly after Standard & Poor's cut Spain's rating by one notch to AA, the latest blow to Europe's credit outlook. The major indexes had declined the most in nearly three months in the prior session after Standard & Poor's cut its rating on Greece's debt to junk status, and lowered Portugal's debt rating by two notches Read Market Snapshot on Tuesday's stock market. Corporate results on Wednesday included better-than-anticipated reports from raw-materials bellwether Dow Chemical Co. (DOW 31.88, +0.05, +0.16%) , investment manager Invesco Ltd. (IVZ 21.61, +0.88, +4.25%) and media company Comcast Corp. (CMCS.A 18.77, +0.35, +1.90%) (CMCS.K 17.82, +0.30, +1.71%) . Dow Chemical shares added 5.9%. For every stock on the decline more than two were on the rise on the New York Stock Exchange, where nearly 1.4 billion shares traded hands. Gold futures extended their winning streak to a fourth-straight day, adding $9.60, or 0.8%, to settle at $1,171.80 an ounce on Comex. The euro turned lower after the Spain rating cut. In addition to other worries, some analysts expressed concern that economic problems in Europe could dent sales for global companies doing business overseas. See currencies on dollar, euro. Greece has yet to tap into almost $60 billion in rescue funds from the European Union and the International Monetary Fund, with worries mounting that the country could default on more than $11 billion in debt payments due in the middle of next month.

The following are excerpts from Wed. morning's Blog.

A read of Wednesday's Wall St. Journal, Financial Times, New York Times, USA Today & Atlanta Journal & Constitution yielded the following stories about Dow Jones Industrial Average 30 component companies and the Dow with stories about the Dow aggregated first and then items about Dow Jones Industrial Average 30 companies presented alphabetically, followed by symbol and Tuesday's stock prices and related data.

Dow: The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Tuesday at 10991.91 down 213.04 or 1.9% from Monday's close of 11,205.03. For the year the Dow is up 5.41%.

The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Caterpillar CAT $68.53 -3.12 4.35% 14,275,538 NYSE.

WSJ pC1 "Dow Drops 213.04, Back Under 11,000" by Peter McKay, Kejal Vyas says renewed concern about debt contagion in Europe drove the Dow back below 11000, and sent investors fleeing from the euro, commodities and emerging market debt. Fin'l stocks led ther retreat amid worries that new fin'l regulation may curtail profits. Morgan Stanley fell 3.3%, JPMorgan fell 3.4% and Citi fell 5.9% while Goldman rose 0.7%.

WSJ pC5 "Caterpillar and Alcoa Decline" by Donna Yesalavich says stocks tumbled in their biggest one day drop in 3 months with Caterpillar, Alcoa and DuPont among the decliners after S&P cut its credit ratings on Greece to junk status. 3M was the only Dow stock to gain, gaining 3 cents or 0.6% to 87.97. Goldman eked out a gain but JPMorgan and Bank of America both fell.

Fin Times pB24 "Fresh concerns over Greek woes offset blue-chip results" by Masa Serdarevic says that concerns that Greek fiscal problems cold be spreading as its and Portugal's sovereign debt ratings were cut by S&P's sent Wall St. equities sharply lower yesterday, overshadowing strong results from several blue chips.

NYT pB6 "Share tumbel, Droppoing dow Below 11000, as Greek Debt is downgraded" by jack healy says fin'l markets on Wall St. and in Europe were rocked on Tues. after Greece's credit rating was cut to junk status by a leading ratings agency, deepening fears that a debt crisis in Europe cold spiral out of control.

USA Today p1B "US stocks tumble on Greece debt downgrade" by Adam Shell says fears of a spreading debt crisis in Europe intensified Tues after Greece's creditgot downgraded to junk status and Portugal's rating also was slashed. Similar storyat USA Today p4B by Bloomberg.

As of the open of the market Wednesday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of today's Wall St. Journal is 0.132319125 unchanged, the trailing P/E ratio is 16.51 down from Tuesday's 17.18 (year ago it was 31.66) the P/E estimate is 14.10 unchanged from Tuesday's 14.10 (year ago it was 22.30) and the current dividend yield is 2.48 up from Tuesday's 2.44 (it was 3.86 a year ago).

Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,454.45 down 28.19 from Monday's closing numerator of 1,482.64. 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 decrease of 281.19 for Tuesday by the divisor you get the decrease in Tuesday's Dow of 213.04. A $1 change in the price of any DJIA stock = a 7.56 change in the average.

The average closing price (the closing numerator divided by 30) of Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $48.48 down 0.94 from Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $49.42.

If Tuesday 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 lost $2,820 ($148,260-$145,440).

Market Watch 4/27/10 4:16 p.m. by Nick Godt Gibson says US stocks fell sharply on Tuesday, as investors ran for the exits after Greece's sovereign debt rating was cut to junk status, sending the Dow industrials to its worst one-day drop in more than two months. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (INDU 10,992, -212.97, -1.90%) fell 213.04 points, or 1.9%, to end at 10,991.99.
