A read of Wednesdays issues of Wall St. Journal, Financial Times, New York Times, USA Today, Atlanta Journal Constitution & Daily Report (Ga) 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 Tuesday's stock prices and related data.

WSJ pC6 "BofA falls but Oracle moves up" by Donna Yesalavich says financial stocks including American Express, JPMorgan Chase and Bank of America led US stocks lower ues as the market cooled off from last week's rally while worries over the health of European banks returned. Oracle is charted under Good news saying it would hire Mark Hurd from CEO. Boeing declined 1.22 after it announced plans to restructure its military aircraft business which will lead to the loss of 400 jobs.

NYT pB9 "Renewed European worry hurts shares" by Christine Hauser says US investors took their cues from overseas on Tues & sent shares lower amid worrying news about the European banks.

Fin Times p24 "Fin'l sector bears the brunt of broad reversal" by hanah Kuchler says US stocks fell after revived fears about the health of European banks weighed on the fin'l sector. Shares in energy firms followed the oil prices down as ExxonMobil fell 1.3%. Coca-Cola Enterprises raised its full yar earnings forecast for the existing firm (its in the process of merging with Coke) to a range between 1.78 and 1.82 a share.

USA Today p4B "Europe's worries seep into US markets" by Ap says stocks closed lower Tues following new worries about Europe's debt problems. Treasury prices rose, and gold futures settled at a new high as investors sought out safe assets.

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 13.95 down from Tuesday's 14.10 (year ago it was 15.332) the P/E estimate is 12.50 unchanged from Tuesday's 12.50 (year ago it was 14.91) and the current dividend yield is 2.72 up from Tuesday's 2.69 (it was 2.98 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 1,366.31 down 14.37 from Friday's closing numerator of 1,380.48. 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 14.37 for Tuesday by the divisor (0.132129493) you get the decrease in Tuesday's Dow of 107.24. 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 $45.54 down 0.48 from Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $46.02. The median closing price of Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $40 (AXP/HPQ) down 1.07 from Friday's Dow Jones median price of $41.07. The lowest volume was Travelers TRV $50.13 -0.90 1.76% 2,507,518 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $13.21 -0.29 2.15% 127,141,253 NYSE.

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 $1,411 ($138,048 - $136,631).

MarketWatch 9/7/10 Tuesday 4:30 pm by Donna Yesalavich says financial stocks including American Express, J.P. Morgan Chase and Bank of America led U.S. stocks lower Tuesday as the market cooled off from last week's rally while worries over the health of European banks recirculated. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 107.24 points, or 1.03%, to 10340.69, snapping a four-day winning streak. American Express was the measure's worst performer with a drop of 1.71, or 4.1%, to 40.09. J.P. Morgan was also weak with a decline of 89 cents, or 2.3%, to 38.28, and Bank of America slipped 29 cents, or 2.2%, to 13.21. The Nasdaq Composite fell 24.86, or 1.11%, to 2208.89. The Standard & Poor's 500 index shed 12.67, or 1.15%, to 1091.84. All of the measure's sectors fell, with financials posting the biggest percentage drop. The decline came as skepticism grew over last week's rally, when the Dow had its best pre-Labor Day week in two decades. Meanwhile, questions emerged over the stress tests of European banks, prompting concerns over their health. Stocks' rally last week from a rough August was "probably a little ahead of itself," said Jim Dunigan, managing executive of investments at PNC Wealth Management. He noted that last week's climb came as the market "got some pretty good smoke signals that maybe the slowdown in growth wasn't as bad as the market was thinking."
