Post No. 500. 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 10,152.80 down 145.64 or1.41% from Wednesday's close of 10,298.44. Of the 30 Dow Companies: only Johnson & Johnson gained and the other 29 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was the only gainer Johnson & Johnson JNJ $59.6 +0.36 0.61% 18,202,902 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was 3M MMM $78.18 -1.94 2.42% 4,305,443 NYSE and percentage-wise was Pfizer PFE $14.46 -0.42 2.82% 85,968,463 NYSE.
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 14.97 unchanged from Wednesday's 14.97 (year ago it was 12.09) the P/E estimate is 12.90 unchanged from Wednesday's 12.90 (year ago it was 13.73) and the current dividend yield is 2.69 up from Wednesday's 2.69 (it was 3.48 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 1,343.41 down 19.27 from Wednesday's closing numerator of 1,362.68. 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 19.27 for Thursday by the divisor (0.132319125) you get the decrease in Thursday's Dow of 145.64. 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 $44.78 up 0.02 from Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $45.42. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $39.02 down $1.51 from Wednesday's median price of $40.53. The lowest volume was Travelers TRV $50.54 -0.57 1.12% 4,188,786 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $15.02 -0.41 2.66% 167,443,483 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 1,927 ($136,268 - $134,341).
MarketWatch 6/24/10 Thurs. 5:00 pm by Peter McKay, Kristina Peterson, Donna Yesalavich says a slide in the last hour of trading left the stock market with its second big loss of the week. Disappointing earnings dragged down a broad range of consumer-oriented stocks, and energy stocks sank amid continuing uncertainty over deepwater drilling. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA 10,153, -145.64, -1.41%) fell 145.64 points, or 1.4%, to 10,152.80, in a move that echoed Tuesday's 149-point drop. Pfizer Inc. (PFE 14.53, +0.07, +0.48%) was the measure's worst performer, down 2.8% after saying it would suspend osteoarthritis trials of its pain drug tanezumab.
Standard & Poor's 500 Index (SPX 1,074, -18.35, -1.68%) posted a fourth straight decline, its longest losing streak in seven weeks. The broad index ended down 1.7%, led by declines of more than 2% each in its consumer-discretionary, financial, energy and basic-materials sectors. The Nasdaq Composite Index (COMP 2,217, -36.81, -1.63%) declined 1.6% to 2,217.42. The Russell 2000 tumbled 1.7% to 1,073.69.
J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. (JPM 38.10, +0.07, +0.18%) dropped 2.2% and Bank of America Corp. (BAC 15.04, +0.02, +0.13%) fell 2.6% as House and Senate lawmakers sought to reach agreement on the final pieces of legislation that is expected to tighten oversight of the financial industry more than many had expected. See latest on the financial-reform conference committee's activity. Offshore drilling stocks slipped after the U.S. federal judge who earlier this week overturned a six-month ban on deepwater drilling activity denied a motion filed by the Obama administration to allow the ban to stay in place during the appeal process. The judge on Thursday also denied a motion by plaintiffs to enforce his own injunction. This means the government can file an emergency motion with the appeals court asking it to keep in place the drilling moratorium until the legal fight over the injunction is resolved.
How low can yields fall?In the wake of the Federal Reserve offering a subdued assessment of the economy and signaling it's set to keep interest rates low, Treasury yields are testing record levels. The downturn in yields is happening even in the absence of the kind of panic that's pushed yields to historic lows in the past. The move comes as the S&P 500 continues to test critical support levels.
Amid the uncertainty, Diamond Offshore Drilling (DO 59.93, +0.08, +0.13%) tumbled 4.4%, while oil and gas explorer Denbury Resources (DNR 15.86, +0.01, +0.03%) fell 3.1%. Meanwhile Anadarko Petroleum (APC 37.70, -0.07, -0.19%) fell 5.2% after shareholders filed the first oil spill lawsuit against the oil giant, alleging Anadarko made a series of false and misleading statements in relation with its participation in the broken well.In the consumer-discretionary sector, Bed Bath & Beyond (BBBY 39.12, -2.34, -5.64%) dropped 5.6% after its current-quarter earnings outlook fell below analysts' estimates. Nike (NKE 69.62, -0.01, -0.02%) declined 4% after the athletic-shoe and apparel maker's revenue growth missed analysts' expectations. Other retailers also dropped. J.C. Penney (JCP 23.18, -0.06, -0.26%) fell 5.8%, Macy's (M 18.92, +0.07, +0.37%) slipped 6.2% and Nordstrom (JWN 35.55, +0.17, +0.48%) slid 4%. Media companies also tumbled. News Corp. (NWS 14.68, -0.01, -0.08%) (NWSA 12.69, -0.75, -5.58%) , publisher of The Wall Street Journal, fell 4.9%, Gannett (GCI 14.94, -0.94, -5.92%) slid 5.9% and New York Times (NYT 9.18, -0.44, -4.57%) fell 4.6%. U.S. economic data were mixed. In a bigger-than-expected drop, weekly jobless claims fell by 19,000 to 457,000. But investors said that decline isn't enough to change the labor market's momentum. Separately, there was a smaller-than-expected drop in durable-goods orders and manufacturing activity in the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City's district slowed in June. The euro strengthened to $1.2338 recently. The dollar weakened against both the euro and the yen. Treasurys were mixed, with the two-year note (UST2YR 0.68, 0.00, 0.00%) flat and the 10-year note (UST10Y 3.14, +0.01, +0.45%) down to push yield up to 3.13%. Crude-oil futures edged down, while gold futures advanced.

The following are excerpts from Thursday morning's Blog.
A read of Thursday's Wall Street Journal, Financial Times, New York Times, USA Today, Atlanta Journal Constitution & Daily Report (Georgia) 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.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Wednesday at 10,298.44 up 4.92 or 0.05% from Tuesday's close of 10,293.52. For the year the Dow is down 1.24%. Of the 30 Dow Companies: 16 gained, United Technologies was unchanged and 13 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was IBM $130.15 +0.85 0.66% 6,600,282 and percentage-wise was Boeing BA $67.45 +1.17 1.77% 5,871,116 NYSE.

WSJ pC5 "Chevron Decliens, Jabil Up" by Kristina Petersons ays blue chip stocks eked out a tiny gain after the Fed Reserve kept interest rates at record lows, but energy firms Chevron and Exxon Mobil slid as oil prices fell.
Fin Times p26 "Poor home sales data help drive equities lower" by asa Serdarevic says US stocks dropped yesterday as new homes sales came in at a record low, adding to mounting concerns about the strength of the domestic economic recovery.
NYT pB7 "Shares Mixed After Fed Statement" by Bloomberg says the major indexes were mixed, with the S&P 500 dropping for a 3rd day after the Fed Reserve signaled that European indebtedness might harm US growth and new home sales sank to a record low.

USA Today p4B "Stocks mixed on debt fears, home sales" by Bloomberg says stocks fell Wed after the Fed Res signaled European indebtedness may harm US growth and new home sales sank to a record low.
Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,362.68 up 0.65 from Tuesday's closing numerator of 1,362.03. 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 0.68 for Wednesday by the divisor (0.132319125) you get the increase in Wednesday's Dow of 4.92. 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 $45.42 up 0.02 from Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $46.40.

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 made $8.00 ($136,268 - $136,200).
MarketWatch 6/23/10 Tues. 4:18 pm by Nick Godt Gibson says US stocks finished Wednesday's session mostly lower, hit by a record slide in sales of new homes in May and after the Federal Reserve downgraded its economic outlook due to the impact of the European debt crisis.
