Post No. 481. 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.

A read of Monday's Wall Street Journal, Financial Times, New York Times, USA Today, & Atlanta Journal Constitution and June 14, 2010 issue of Barron's 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 Friday's stock prices and related data.

Dow: The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Friday at 10,211.07 up 38.54 or 0.38% from Thursday's close of 9,899.25. For the year the Dow is done 2.08%. For the week the Dow was up 279.10 or 2.81% from last Friday's close of 9,931.97. Of the 30 Dow Companies: 10 gained and 20 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Boeing BA $65.38 +1.49 2.33% 8,447,854 NYSE and percentage-wise was Pfizer PFE $15.46 +0.55 3.69% 75,352,136 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Procter & Gamble PG $61.01 -0.90 1.45% 19,729,190 NYSE and percentage-wise were Coke KO $51.65 -0.80 1.53% 7,412,484 NYSE and Home Depot HD $32.22 -0.50 1.53% 13,661,644 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 14.85 down up from Friday's 14.39 (year ago it was 12.82) the P/E estimate is 12.56 unchanged from Friday's 12.36 (year ago it was 14.22) and the current dividend yield is 2.71 down from Friday's 2.72 (it was 3.30 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.

Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,351.12 up 5.10 from Thursday's closing numerator of 1,346.02. 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 5.10 for Friday by the divisor (0.132319125) you get the increase in Friday's Dow of 38.54. 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 Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $45.04 up 0.17 from Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $44.87. The median closing price of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $39.04 down 0.10 from Thursday's median price of $39.14. The lowest volume was Travelers TRV $50.41 +0.42 0.84% 3,916,255 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $15.6 +0.14 0.91% 114,814,247 NYSE.

If Friday 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 $510 ($135,120 - $134,610 -$).

MarketWatch Friday 6/11/10 4:45 pm by Donna Kardos Yesalavich says U.S. stocks closed higher Friday despite a disappointing drop in consumer spending, as investors were encouraged by an increase in consumer sentiment and a lack of negative news out of the euro zone. Pfizer, Microsoft and Boeing were among the day's gainers. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 38.54 points, or 0.38%, to 10211.07. For the week, the measure gained 2.81%, snapping a three-week losing streak and marking the Dow's biggest weekly gain since February. It is now up 0.73% for the month but down 2.08% for the year. Pfizer was the Dow's best performer, jumping 55 cents, or 3.7%, to 15.46. The drug maker and Bristol-Myers Squibb said they stopped a clinical trial early because the data so far suggest an experimental drug for irregular heart rhythm was superior to aspirin. Bristol-Myers Squibb, which is not a Dow component, rose 44 cents, or 1.8%, to 25.08. Among the Dow's other top performers, Microsoft (Nasdaq) climbed 66 cents, or 2.6%, to 25.66, and Boeing advanced 1.49, or 2.3%, to 65.38. The Nasdaq Composite rose 24.89, or 1.12%, to 2243.60. The measure climbed 1.1% this week. The Standard & Poor's 500 added 4.76, or 0.44%, to 1091.60, with the materials and technology sectors leading its gains. Just two categories ended the session in the red: consumer staples and utilities. The S&P 500 rose 2.51% this week, its biggest weekly gain since early March. Friday's stock gains came despite a Commerce Department report that showed U.S. consumers pulled back their spending on things from cars to clothing last month, sending retail sales tumbling 1.2%. It was the first drop in retail sales since September and came as a surprise as economists were expecting a 0.2% increase. However, a Reuters/University of Michigan report showed consumer sentiment rose more than expected, which helped ease investors' concerns about consumer spending going forward. The report prompted stocks' earlier declines to pare, although major stock measures didn't turn positive until late in the session.

AT&T T $25.29 -0.15 0.59% 23,658,043 NYSE: WSJ pB6 "Computer Experts Face Backlash" by Ben Worthen, Spencer Ante says a computer group known as Goatse Security finds flaws in websites such as the one they found last week in AT&T's website that made iPad owners' email addresses public.

Barron's p38 "A Test of Apple's Loyalty" by Mark Veverka says at the All Things Digital conference last week Apple's CEO Steve Jobs came to a defense of AT&T, Apple's exclusive US carrier for iPhones and iPad. he said if another carrier takes over, its network could be overloaded as well but it remains to be seen whether At&T's competitors such as sprint, Verizon Wireless, or T-Mobile will suffer from the same problems if they take over from AT&T.
