Post No. 536. 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 7/11/10 and an update of the Dow 30 component's SEC filings as of 7/11/10.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Friday at 10,097.9 down 261.41 or 2.52% from Thursday's close of 10,359.31. For the week the Dow is down 100.13 or 0.98% from last Friday's close of 10,198.03. Of the 30 Dow Companies: all 30 declined. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was IBM $128.03 -2.69 2.06% 6,983,970 NYSE and percentage-wise was Bank of America BAC $13.98 -1.41 9.16% 437,325,834 NYSE.

As of the open of the market Friday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of today's Wall St. Journal is 0.132129493 (it changed on Thursday), the trailing P/E ratio is 14.72 down from Thursday's 14.86 (year ago it was 12.94) the P/E estimate is 12.51 unchanged from Thursday's 12.51 (year ago it was 13.00) and the current dividend yield is 2.68 unchanged from Thursday's 2.68 (it was 3.29 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 1,334.23 down 34.54 from Thursday's closing numerator of 1368.77. 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 34.54 for Thursday by the divisor (0.132129493) you get the decrease in Thursday's Dow of 261.41. 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 $44.47 down 1.16 from Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $45.63. The median closing price of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $39.69 down 2.26 from Thursday's median price of $41.95. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $80.95 -2.11 2.54% 4,291,549 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $13.98 -1.41 9.16% 437,325,834 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 lost $3,467 ($ $136,877 - $133,410).

MarketWatch 7/16/10 Fri. 4:40 pm by Donna Yesalavich says U.S. stocks plunged, as a double dose of discouraging earnings reports and concerns about the pace of the economic recovery wiped out the Dow Jones Industrial Average's gains for the week.
The Dow (DJIA 10,098, -261.49, -2.52%) , which snapped its seven-day winning streak on Thursday, closed down 261.41 points 2.5% to 10,097.90 and finished the week down 0.98%. The S&P 500 Index (SPX 1,065, -31.60, -2.88%) declined 31.60 points, or 2.9%, to 1064.88 to end the week down 1.2%. Both indexes have fallen in three out of the last four weeks. The stock market's deep slide upends a week that started on a strong note, as earnings from Alcoa Inc. (AA 10.43, +0.02, +0.19%) and Intel Corp. (INTC 21.01, -0.01, -0.05%) fueled optimism about the profits of U.S. corporations. But the gains proved hard to hold, with concerns about the outlook for the U.S. economy in the second half moving front and center in investors' minds. Those concerns are casting a harsh light on earnings from large financial corporations with deep roots in Main Street. Bank of America Corp.'s (BAC 13.98, -1.41, -9.16%) 9.2% drop led the blue chips lower, after a loss in its mortgage business and a falloff in Wall Street trading profits dragged on second-quarter results. Adding to the jitters was a report that showed consumer sentiment dropped to its worst level since March 2009, the latest in a string of downbeat data that slammed Wall Street.
Investors turned pessimistic about growth prospects for other major U.S. companies as Citigroup Inc. (C 3.92, +0.02, +0.51%) and General Electric Co. (GE 14.53, -0.02, -0.14%) posted lackluster results. There also were growing worries about how financial regulatory overhaul will hurt bank earnings, with financials posting the biggest declines on the S&P 500 on Friday, falling 4.4%. Citigroup shares fell 6.3% and J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. (JPM 38.97, -0.03, -0.08%) fell 3.6%. The Nasdaq Composite Index (COMP 2,179, -70.03, -3.11%) declined 3.1% to 2179.05 and finished the week down 0.8%. The index was weighed down by the 7% drop in Google Inc. (GOOG 460.00, +0.40, +0.09%) , which posted disappointing second-quarter results as its search business continued to show signs of slowing growth. Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (GS 146.44, +0.27, +0.19%) bucked the trend to rise 0.7%, although the stock was up as much as 4.7% earlier, after the investment bank's settlement with the Securities and Exchange Commission lifted a major overhang on the stock. Apple Inc. (AAPL 249.99, +0.09, +0.04%) shares, which flitted between small gains and losses, fell 0.6% after Chief Executive Steve Jobs said the company will give away free cases as a remedy for the antenna problems that have ravaged iPhone 4. BP PLC (BP 36.75, -0.35, -0.94%) slipped 4.7%, although the oil giant's well integrity test survived the night as pressures steadily rose, showing that a newly placed cap might have the ability to completely shut in an overflowing well in the Gulf of Mexico. Despite Friday's declines, the stock is still up nearly 10% this week and has gained about 40% from the multiyear lows hit late last month. Other markets are flashing warning signals too. Interest-rate futures markets are signaling an increasing shift in expectations that the economy could fall back into recession after a brief recovery, with the September and December Eurodollar futures contracts heading for a rare inversion. That has in the past indicated a contracting economy. The Treasurys market continues to flag a slowdown in the economy. In contrast with stocks, bonds are up for the week with the 10-year yield down more than 0.1 percentage point. Bond yields move inversely to prices. In the currency markets, the dollar has been under pressure for some time -- the euro briefly breached the key $1.30 level on Friday -- as concerns about the U.S. economy dominate just as investors have become less worried about the euro zone.
