Post No. 412. The following is brought to you by Intellivest Securities Research, Inc. Towards the end of this Blog is a list of the Dow 30 current CEOs, a ranking of the Dow 30 components by market capitalization as of 5/1/10 and an update of the Dow 30 component's most recent SEC filings as of 4/1/10.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Monday at 11151.83 up 143.22 or 1.3% from Friday's close of 11008.61. Of the 30 Dow Companies: 29 gained and Alcoa declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Boeing and percentage wise was Caterpillar NYSE. The only decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Alcoa NYSE.

As of the open of the market Monday, 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 16.21 down from Friday's open of 16.70 (year ago it was 35.40) the P/E estimate is 13.95 down from Friday's 14.10 (year ago it was 22.77) and the current dividend yield is 2.48 down from Friday's 2.45 (it was 3.76 a year ago). The Dow ended April with a 1.4% gain, the 3rd consecutive month in positive territory. The Dow's all-time high was 14,164.53 on Oct. 9, 2007.

Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,475.60 up 18.95 from Friday's closing numerator of 1,456.65. 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 18.95 for Monday by the divisor (0.132319125) you get the increase in Monday's Dow of 143.22. 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 Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $49.19 up 0.33 from Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $48.86. The median closing price of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was 45.37 up 1.02 from Friday's median closing price of $44.35. The lowest volume was Travelers TRV $50.21 +0.47 0.93% 4,037,773 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $17.39 +1.96 2.71% 5,407,679 NYSE.

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 $ 979.99 ($$147,560 - 146,580).

Market Watch 4/30/10 5:29 p.m. by Kate Gibsons says US stocks surged Monday, with retailers rallying after a report showed consumer spending at a record level and as investors took heart from the latest merger activity, including UAL Corp.'s $3.15 billion deal with Continental Airlines Inc. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (INDU 11,152, +143.44, +1.30%) ended up 143.22 points, or 1.3%, at 11,151.83, its biggest one-day gain since mid-February and nearly recouping Friday's 159-point slide.
All but one component traded higher, led by shares of Caterpillar, Inc. (CAT 69.78, -0.16, -0.23%) , which gained 2.7%. Alcoa Inc. (AA 13.12, -0.03, -0.23%) was the sole decliner among the blue chips, with shares of the aluminum producer down 2.1%.
Consumer discretionary and industrial shares led the gains, with retail stocks such as Nordstrom Inc. (JWN 43.74, +0.11, +0.25%) , Starbucks Corp. (SBUX 27.14, -0.04, -0.15%) and Hasbro Inc. (HAS 40.12, +1.76, +4.59%) advancing after the government estimated U.S. consumer spending increased to a record high in March. Read Economic Report on personal income and consumer spending. Also supporting gains, energy stocks turned higher as oil topped $86 barrel, its fourth-straight session gain, and as BP Plc (BP 50.00, -0.19, -0.38%) officials spoke to reporters on the spreading oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Materials, a sector that includes metals miners and producers such as Alcoa, Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold Inc. /(FCX 73.55, -0.19, -0.26%) and Cliffs Natural Resources Inc. /(CLF 58.82, -0.13, -0.22%) , was the only laggard among the S&P's 10 industry groups. Read more on mining stocks' drop.
Industrial stocks have led the market recovery from the beginning, while "safer" groups like utilities have been weak. The S&P 500's industrial sector gained after United Airline parent UAL (UAUA 22.06, -0.05, -0.23%) said it was acquiring Continental (CAL 22.64, -0.22, -0.96%) in a stock deal valued at about $3.2 billion. Neither airline is in the S&P 500. In a similar vein, Avis Budget Group Inc. (CAR 14.99, -0.09, -0.60%) said it was preparing to top a competitor's bid for Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group Inc. (DTG 50.86, +0.16, +0.32%) . Avis' chief executive officer made the statement one week after Hertz Global Holdings Inc. (HTZ 13.60, -0.86, -5.95%) offered $1.17 billion, or $41 a share, for Dollar Thrifty. Apple said it sold its one millionth iPad on Friday, the same day the company released its 3G version of the much-hyped device, as sales of the tablet continued to build. The deals follow last week's announcement that Hewlett-Packard Co. /(HPQ 52.71, +0.74, +1.42%) would acquire Palm Inc. (PALM 5.75, -0.06, -1.03%) .The Nasdaq Composite Index (COMP 2,499, +37.55, +1.53%) added 37.55 points, or 1.5%, to 2,498.74.
SanDisk Corp. (SNDK 43.32, -0.20, -0.46%) shares rallied 9.2%, boosting tech stocks, after Apple Inc. (AAPL 265.65, -0.70, -0.26%) reported selling 1 million iPads in the device's first month of release, pointing to strong demand for makers of memory chips. Micron Technology Inc. (MU 9.90, +0.01, +0.10%) rose 5.8%.
For every stock on the decline more than three were rising on the New York Stock Exchange, where 1.18 billion shares traded hands. Composite volume topped 5 billion.
Energy stocks proved highly sensitive to the news flow around the massive oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Shares of Transocean Ltd. (RIG 72.65, -0.26, -0.36%) edged up, reversing a slide that came after BP PLC (BP 50.00, -0.19, -0.38%) said equipment belonging to the rig owner failed. Other oil services companies also reversed higher as BP officials held a briefing on the spill. Cameron International Corp. (CAM 40.50, -0.27, -0.66%) shares gained 3.3%, while fellow S&P 500-member Halliburton Co. (HAL 31.25, -0.14, -0.45%) rose 2.4%. U.S. shares of BP were off 3.8%
Nalco Holdings Co. (NLC 26.25, +0.06, +0.23%) jumped 5.9% on reports its chemicals would be used by BP to help clean up the slick, while Superior Energy Services Inc. (SPN 27.38, +0.32, +1.18%) climbed 1.2% after it said it was contacted by BP to supply concrete covers that are placed over spills. Other companies with potential roles in the clean up also gained, with shares of Clean Harbors Inc. (CLH 67.30, +0.32, +0.48%) rising 5.6% and Newpark Resources Inc. (NR 7.93, +0.20, +2.59%) shares advancing 16%. Crude-oil futures rose on the heels of data showing U.S. manufacturing last month expanded at its most rapid pace since 2004, with the Institute for Supply Management report pointing to increasing appetite for fuel in the U.S., the globe's largest energy consumer. The ISM's index jumped to 60.4% in April from 59.6% the prior month. See Economic Report on manufacturing data.
The euro fell against the dollar to a fresh 12-month low as a $146 billion aid package for Greece failed to restore investor confidence, particularly about other European countries. The dollar index (DXY 82.36, +0.46, +0.56%) rose to 82.368, up 0.7%. Greece's debt problems abated some after the European Union and the International Monetary Fund reached agreement on a $145 billion rescue plan. Read more on Greece.

Current" by Jim McTague says Boeing and Orbital Sciences would be the only 2 public firms inthe running to bid for NASA's shuttle fleet if Congress approves Obama's $19 bil fiscal '11 budget that would give private sector firms such as Boeing, the possibility of building economical space shuttles worth $5.8 bil in contracts over 5 years. Lockheed Martin cold also join the race to commercialize space. The purpose of the shuttle would be to shuttle astronauts and freight to the Int'l Sa[ce Sation and cater to tourists and corporate scientists as well. Theoretically, the private sector can build and operate a shuttle fleet for less than NASA, freeing the agency to concentrate on deep space exploration. NASA hopes the private sector can produce a replacement shuttle before '16. NASA this year or next will be retiring its 30 year old fleet of gliders because they are expensive and increasingly dangerous to fly.

Barron's p30 "Smartphone Wars' new Force: Hewlett-Packard & Palm" by Eric Savitz says last week, Hewlett-Packard agreed to pay $1.2 bil for beleaguered Palm, which was running out of customers, cash and time. This is good news for Palm and the handful of developers who created aps for Pre or Pixi, the two Palm phones that run on the Palm's WebOS software which HP wll now use to launch new mobile devices, including phones, tablets and maybe netbooks.
