Post No. 476. The following is brought to you by Intellivest Securities Research, Inc. Toward 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 6/4/10 and an update of the Dow 30 component's SEC filings as of 6/4/10.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Thursday at 10,172.53 or 273.28 or 2.76% from Wednesday's close of 9,899.25. Of the 30 Dow Companies: 29 gained and only Cisco declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was IBM $127.68 +3.78 3.05% 7,216,603 NYSE and percentage-wise was Caterpillar CAT $59.95 3+.14 5.53% 9,540,635 NYSE. The only decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Cisco CSCO $22.7725 -0.0075 0.03% 97,288,199 NASDAQ-GS.

As of the open of the market Thursday, 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 14.39 down from Wednesday's 14.45 (year ago it was 12.73) the P/E estimate is 12.36 unchanged from Wednesday's 12.36 (year ago it was 25.00) and the current dividend yield is 2.80 up from Wednesday's 2.79 (it was 3.32 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 1,346.02 up 36.16 from Wednesday's closing numerator of 1,309.86. 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 36.16 for Thursday by the divisor (0.132319125) you get the increase in Thursday's Dow of 273.28. 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 Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $44.87 up 1.23 from Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $43.66. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $39.14 up 1.52 from Wednesday's median price of $37.62. The lowest volume was Travelers TRV $49.99 +1.20 2.46% 4,724,922 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $15.46 +0.45 3% 120,761,886 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 made $3,630 ($134,610 -$130,980).

MarketWatch Wednesday 6/9/10 4:13 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks finished solidly higher Thursday in Wall Street's best performance since May 27 after a German court declined to immediately block the country's contribution to a program viewed as critical to preventing defaults in the euro zone. In its third biggest gain of 2010, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA 10,173, +273.28, +2.76%) rose 273.28 points, or 2.8%, to 10,172.53. The S&P 500 Index (SPX 1,087, +31.15, +2.95%) climbed 31.15 points, or 3%, to 1,086.84. The Nasdaq Composite (COMP 2,219, +59.86, +2.77%) advanced 59.86 points, or 2.8%, to 2,218.71

The following are excerpts from Thursday morning's Blog.

A read of Thursday's Wall St. Journal, Financial Times, New York Times & USA Today 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 Wednesday's stock prices and related data.

Dow:The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Wednesday at 9,899.25 down 40.73 or 0.41% from Tuesday's close of 9,939.98. For the year the Dow is down 5.07%. Of the 30 Dow Companies: 8 gained and 22 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Boeing BA $61.71 +0.695 1.14% 7,718,033 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Exxon XOM $60.03 -1.21 1.98% 31,611,665 NYSE and percentage-wise was Bank of Am BAC $15.01 -0.32 2.09% 150,510,762 NYSE.

WSJ pC6 "BP Plummets 16%; BofA and Exxon Fall" by Donna Yesalavich says stocks fell with Bank of America, JPMorgan and Exxon among the decliners after worries about global growth reemerged. Boeing is charted under Good News say many multinationals benefited from investors' increased comfort with int'l exposures after a report Chinese exports surged 50% in May.

WSJ pC1 "Dow Revisits, fails to Hold 10000 Level" by Donna Yesalavich, Kristina Peterson says a rally in US stocks fizzled late Wed. after a report from the Fed Res. & comments from German Chancellor Merkel fed investors' unease about the global economy.

Fin Times p26 "Stocks Tumble as Positive signals are disregarded" by Masa Serdarevic says US stocks gave up the session's gains in the last hour of trading yesterday to close lower on the day, as investors shrugged off a positive report on Chinese exports as well as the Fed Res' Beige Book, which said economic activity improved nationwide last month.

NYT pB1 "BP concerns Drag down Other Stocks" by Susanna Kim says investors were shaken Wed by the prospect that BP might cut its dividend, pulling down the broader market.

USA Today p4B "BP worries send investors scurrying" by Bloomberg says stocks fel Wed with declines in energy and banking shares wiping out early gains, as the cost to protect against default by BP rose to a record amid concern over the fallout from the Gulf of Mexico oil spill.

Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,309.86 down 5.39 from Tuesday's closing numerator of 1,315.25. 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 5.39 for Wednesday by the divisor (0.132319125) you get the decrease in Wednesday's Dow of 40.73. 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 Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $43.66 down 0.18 from Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $43.84. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $37.62 down 0.49 from Tuesday's median price of $38.11. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $74.79 -0.13 0.17% 4,795,418 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $15.01 -0.32 2.09% 150,510,762 NYSE.

If Wednesday 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 $530 ($131,520 -$130,980).

MarketWatch Wednesday 6/9/10 4:20 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks lost their gains Wednesday as Wall Street lapsed in another display of uncertainty after Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke voiced cautious optimism about the economy and the central bank's Beige Book also noted modest improvement. After climbing more than 100 points and clearing 10,000 for the first time this week, the Dow industrials (DJIA 9,899, -40.73, -0.41%) ended at 9,899.25, off 40.73 points, or 0.4%. Twenty-two of the Dow's 30 components finished with losses, led by Bank of America Corp. (BAC 15.00, -0.01, -0.07%) , off 2.1%. Will the correction stick? Stocks are clearly in correction territory but where do they go from here? There are plenty of headwinds, including the euro zone crisis and the weak housing market in the U.S. But there are some tailwinds too. The S&P 500 Index (SPX 1,056, -6.31, -0.59%) fell 6.31 points to 1,055.69, with energy off the most among its 10 industry groups. On Capitol Hill, Bernanke told a House budget panel that any fallout from Europe's debt trouble would likely have only a modest impact on U.S. economic growth, so long as financial markets continue to heal. Bernanke, whose comments about prospects for growth in an interview late Monday helped bolster Wall Street sentiment, also called on lawmakers to come up with a long-term plan to cut the U.S. budget deficit. The Nasdaq Composite Index (COMP 2,159, -11.72, -0.54%) shed 11.72 points to 2,158.85. For every seven stocks on the rise eight were declining on the New York Mercantile Exchange, where 1.7 billion shares traded. Composite volume topped 6.4 billion. In its June report, the Fed's Beige Book found ongoing improvement across the country, with the pace of growth generally termed modest. Crude-oil futures topped $74 a barrel and gold neared $1,230 an ounce.
