A read of Friday'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 Thursday's stock prices and related data.

Dow: The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Thursday at 10,068.01 down 376.36 or 3.6% from Tuesday's close of 10,444.37. For the year the Dow is down 3.45%. Of the 30 Dow Companies: all 30 declined.

WSJ pA1 lead story "Slowdown Fear Hits Market' by Tom Lauricella says new worries about the health of the global economy flared Thurs driving US stocks to their first official correction since the bull makret began last Mar, rolling credit markets and causing big swings in currencies.

WSJ pC6 "BofA, GE And Alcoa Tumble" by Donna Yesalavich says worries over the potential impact of the euro zone on the global economy sent US stocks tumbling into the first correction of the bull market that began in Mar '09. Bank of america, Alcoa and GE were among the stocks caught in the market's downdraft. GE is charted under "Bad News" saying Mitsubishi Heavy Industries filed antitrust and patent infringement suits. Bank of America fell 6.2% as the Dow's worst performer while the fin'l sector was hurt by the prospect of a fin'l regulatory overhaul bill clearing the US Senate, JPMorgan dropped 3.9%.

WSJ pC1 A collapse of the Pro Growth Trade" by Susan Pulliam, Mark Gongloff saysthe unwinding of a highly leveraged trading strategy embraced by hedge funds contributed to the global market selloff on Thurs. The strategy, known as the pro growth trade, was based on a view that global economies would recover strongly and included bets that commodities, high yielding currencies and stocks wold keep rising, while safer investments such as Treasurys would fall.

Fin Times p22 "Equities tumble amid broad flight to safety" by Dave Shellock saysinvestor confidence suffered a sharp deterioration yesterday as fears aboutt he potential impact of Europe's debt crisis on the global economy intensified.

As of the open of the market Friday, 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 14.64 down from Thursday's (year ago it was 41.68) the P/E estimate is 13.10 unchanged from Thursday's 13.10 (year ago it was 24.03) and the current dividend yield is 2.74 up from Thursday's 2.62 (it was 3.70 a year ago). The Dow's all-time high was 14,164.53 on Oct. 9, 2007. The 12 year low close for the Dow was on March 9, 2009 when it fell to 6,547.05.

Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,332.19 down 49.80 from Wednesday's closing numerator of 1,381.99. 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 49.80 for Thursday by the divisor (0.132319125) you get the decrease in Thursday's Dow of 376.36. A $1 change in the price of any DJIA stock = a 7.56 change in the average.

NYT pB1 "Stocks Plunge on Fears of a Spreading European Crisis" by Graham Bowlely, Christine Hauser, USA Today p1B "Investor fears ignite selloff" by Adam Shell say its an official stock marekt correction as the stock market, for the first time since the bull market began in Mar '09, has closed 10% below its peak, hit just 4 weeks ago on 4/23. It's down 12% and all the major US indexes are now in correction territory, including the Dow Jones indsutrial average after its 376 point plunge.

USA Today p4B "Losses slam stocks across the board" Bloomberg says stocks plunger turs with Caterpillar helping lead industrial shares lower. Conoco-Phillips and ExxonMobil retreated with oil prices. GE dropped as WalMart Stores recalled 900,000 GE branded coffee makers after reports the appliances burned.

The average closing price (the closing numerator divided by 30) of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $44.41 down 1.66 from Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $46.07. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was 38.23 down 2.55 from Wednesday's median closing price of $40.78. The lowest volume was Travelers TRV $$48.42 -1.72 3.43% 7,924,484 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $15.3 -1.01 6.19% 299,740,629 NYSE.

If Thursday 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 $4,980 ($138,210 - $133,230).

Market Watch Tues. 5/20/10 4:17 p.m. by Laura Mandaro says U.S. stocks ended sharply lower Thursday, relinquishing a mild afternoon recovery, to finish near their session lows and in correction territory.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA 10,068, -376.36, -3.60%) fell 376.36 points, or 3.6%, to 10,068.01, with all 30 of its components lower.
