WSJ pC1 "DJIA declines 54.50 points after a brief post fed burst" by Jonathan Cheng says US investors couldn't sustain an initial burst of enthusiasm on Thues fueled by the Fed Res' latest attempt to juice the wobbly economic recovery.

WSJ pC5 "Dim view on chips hits Intel" by Donna yesalavich says stocks fell Tues as weakness in the supply chain system for PCs weighed on Intel and microsoft, while signs of tapering demand in China hurt materials stocks including Alcoa. Under Bad News Intel is charted saying Baird & other brokerages, citing a decline in PC reklated orders, took a dimmer view of it and others in the semiconductor sector. Alcoa is is also charted under Bad News saying weaker than expected Chinese trade data stoked fears that demand for US raw materials could ebb. Alcoa led the sector lower.

Alcoa dropped 2.7%. Oil prices fell after the news from China with knock-on effects for producers: ExxonMobil fell 0.8% and Chevron slipped 0.3%.

NYT pB1 "10 Year Treasury yields slie on Fed's decision to buy debt" by Christine Hauser says yields on 10 year Treasury securities, a vital benchmark for home mortgages and corporate loans, tumbled to the lowest level in more than a eyar on Tues after the Fed Res said it would buy gov debt in an effort to bolster the nation's increasingly fragile economy.

USA Today p4B "Late rally can't make up for earlier losses" by Bloomberg says stocks fell Tues with a late day rally ailing to erase losses, after the Fed Res' plan to purchase Treasury securities wasn't enough to overcome concern that the recovery is faltering.

As of the open of the market Wednesday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of today's Wall St. Journal is 0.132129493, the trailing P/E ratio is 14.40 down from Tuesday's 14.47 (year ago it was 14.93) the P/E estimate is 12.80 unchanged from Monday's 12.80 (year ago it was 14.75) and the current dividend yield is 2.62up from Monday's 2.61 (it was 3.09 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.

Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,406.42 down 7.20 from Monday's closing numerator of 1,4013.62. 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 7.20 for Tuesday by the divisor (0.132129493) you get the decrease in Tuesday's Dow of 54.50. 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 Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $46.88 down $0.04 from Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $46.92. The median closing price of Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $41.69 down $0.10 from Monday's median price of $41.97.

If Tuesday 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 $720 (- $141,362 - $140,642).

MarketWatch 8/10/10 Tues. 4:17 pm by Nick Godt says U.S. stocks finished lower on Tuesday, though well off their worst levels of the session, as investors weighed the Federal Reserve's move to use mortgage-bond proceeds to buy more Treasurys to boost a slowing economy. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA 10,644, -54.50, -0.51%) fell 54.50 points, or 0.5%, to end at 10,644.25, well off a session low of 10,551.62. Out of the Dow's 30 components, 21 fell, including a 4% drop in shares of Intel Corp. (INTC 19.83, +0.01, +0.05%) . The S&P 500 index (SPX 1,121, -6.73, -0.60%) dropped 6.73 points, or 0.6%, to 1,121.06, weighed down most by the technology sector, which fell 1.2%.
