The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Friday at 10,450.64 up 16.47 or 0.16 from Thursday's close of 10,434.1709.46. For the week the Dow closed up 239.57 or 2.34% from last Friday's close of 10,211.07. Of the 30 Dow Companies: 16 gained, Bank of America and Johnson & Johnson were unchanged and 12 declined.

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 $240 ($138,300 - $138,060).

MarketWatch 6/18/10 Fri. 4:15 pm by Nick Godt Gibson says US stocks posted mild gains on Friday, but they posted gains for the second week in a row, rising 2.4% as worries about European debt abate further even as mixed U.S. economic reports kept hopes for the global recovery in check. On Friday, upbeat comments about Asia from equipment maker Caterpillar Inc. (CAT 65.85, -0.01, -0.01%) gave a slight boost to the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA 10,451, +16.40, +0.16%) , which ended 16.70 points, or 0.2% higher to end at 10,450.64.

Caterpillar was up 0.9%, Kraft was up 0.8% and Chevron climbed 0.5%.

WSJ pC1 "DJIA Rises 24.71 in Late Reversal" by Peter McKay says after spending most of the day in the red, stocks staged a late rally to end slightly higher.

MarketWatch 6/17/10 Thurs. 4:42 pm by Kate Gibson says after a late reversal, U.S. stocks ended higher on Thursday, as gains in technology helped offset the impact of mostly weak economic reports and a successful bond auction in Spain helped soothe concerns over Europe. With the euro continuing to stabilize this week, stocks were also on track for solid gains for the week. After trading lower for most of the session, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA 10,434, +24.71, +0.24%) ended up 24.71 points, or 0.2%, at 10,434.17, with 17 of its 30 components rising.

The S&P 500, used as a benchmark of the broad market by money managers, is up 2.2% so far this week. The Dow industrials are also up 2.2% week to date. The Nasdaq Composite Index (COMP 2,307, +1.23, +0.05%) finished off 1.23 points, or 0.1%, to 2,307.16. The tech-heavy index is up 2.8% for the week so far.

On the New York Mercantile Exchange, gold futures closed at a record high $1,248.70 an ounce, while crude-oil futures fell 88 cents to end at $76.79 a barrel.
Wall Street's gaze was also trained on televised House subcommittee hearings on Capitol Hill, where BP PLC (BP 31.71, -0.14, -0.44%) CEO Tony Hayward apologized for the devastating oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. After an initial bout of wavering, stock indexes turned lower after the Philadelphia Federal Reserve reported regional manufacturing continued to expand in June, but at a slower pace than the prior month. This Week in Mutual Funds: high-yield bondsWith signs the U.S. economy is improving, corporate bonds offer more stable income, according to ETF Trends' Tom Lydon, who talks about some investment-grade and high-yield, bond exchange-traded funds investors can consider. Jonathan Burton reports. The vexing manufacturing report came in the wake of data that had the government's count of those filing for first-time jobless benefits rising by 12,000 to 472,000 last week. Other economic reports included the index of U.S. leading indicators, which climbed 0.4% in May, indicating expansion would continue into the second half of 2010. Separately, the Labor Department reported consumer prices fell 0.2% in May for a second month in a row, pushing aside any concerns that the Federal Reserve might have to act to curb inflation. Wall Street had sputtered higher at the start after Spain sold 3.5 billion euros, or $4.3 billion, in bonds, offsetting worries that it would not be able to finance its debt.
