A read of 10/12/10 Wall St. Journal, Financial Times, New York Times, USA Today, & Boston Globe 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 Monday's stock prices and related data.

Shares of Apple and IBM hit intraday records, leading he tech sector higher.The NYSE had problems with closing out 65 stocks including Johnson & Johnson.

Fin Times p24 "Verizon rises as telecoms groups set the pace" by Telis Demos says US stocks were little changed with gains in telecommunications firms held back by industrial and fin'l groups. Dividend paying telecoms continued to see gains. Verizon was up. A rise in the dollar hit industrial groups who benefit from a weaker dollars. Dupont fell 1.3% and 3M fell 1.1% and GE dropped 0.9%.

NYT pC12 "Markets tread water with eye on key reports" by AP says the stock market was flat Mon as traders waited for a week of reports that would give hem a beer view of where the economy was headed.

USA Today p4B "Slugggish markets manage tiny gains" by Satephen Bernard AP says stocks struggled to a mixed finish on Mon just days afer the Dow rose above 11000 for he first time since early May.

As of the open of the market Tuesday, 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 14.86 up from Monday's P/E ratio of 14.85 (year ago it was 16.00) the P/E estimate is 13.15 unchanged from Monday's P/E estimate of 13.15 (year ago it was 15.84) and the current dividend yield is 2.56 unchanged from Monday's yield of 2.58 (it was 2.83 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.

Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,454.78 up 0.52 from Friday's closing numerator of 1,454.26. 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 for today by the divisor (0.132129493) you get the increase in today's Dow. 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 Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $48.48 up 0.01 from Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $48.47. The median closing price of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $40.36 (HPQ/JPM) up from Friday's median price of $40.23. The lowest volume was TRV $52.95 +0.14 0.27% 1,552,573 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $13.15 -0.03 0.23% 100,991,540 NYSE.

If Monday 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 $51 ($145,479 - $145,428).

MarketWatch 10/11/10 Monday 5:37 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks ended slightly higher Monday as Wall Street anticipated earnings from a handful of industry titans and weighed potential moves by the Federal Reserve to boost the economy. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA 11,010, +3.63, +0.03%) finished up 3.86 points, or 0.035% at 11,010.3. The broader S&P 500 Index /(SPX 1,165, +0.17, +0.02%) gained 0.17 points, or 0.015% to end at 1165.32. “There is a real competition between the glass-is-half-empty and half-full” points of view, said Sandy Lincoln, chief investment strategist at M&I Investment Management. Three Dow components — Intel Corp. (INTC 19.67, +0.11, +0.56%) , J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. (JPM 39.73, +0.42, +1.07%) and General Electric Co.(GE 16.96, -0.16, -0.93%) — are scheduled to report quarterly results in the days ahead. “It’s still early in the reporting season, but so far two out of three companies are giving us positive earnings surprises. If that were to persist, it would be a pretty robust outcome,” Lincoln said. The Nasdaq Composite Index (COMP 2,402, +0.42, +0.02%) advanced 0.42 points, or 0.02%, to 2,402.33. The bond market was closed for the Columbus Day holiday. Economic news will step up later in the week, with reports on first-time jobless claims, consumer confidence and inflation among those on the calendar. After Friday’s employment report showed the U.S. economy creating fewer private-sector jobs in September than anticipated, Wall Street climbed on the belief that the data bolstered the chances of the Fed buying more debt.
“The markets are in the ‘bad news is good news’ mode, meaning that the poor employment report of Friday, showing private-sector job gains remain very weak, would increase the likelihood that the Fed would continue injecting money into the financial system,” wrote Paul Nolte, managing director at Dearborn Partners. But M&I Investment’s Lincoln was not among those cheering a further easing of monetary policy by the central bank. “Normally the Fed is very cautious about moving before the evidence is in, and now we’re in this vague area between recovery and expansion. My dream scenario is: The Fed would do nothing,” he said.Advancers outpaced decliners 16 to 13 on the New York Stock Exchange, where nearly 828 million shares traded. Shares of Gymboree Corp. (GYMB 64.83, +11.88, +22.44%) jumped 22% after private-equity powerhouse Bain Capital said it would acquire the children’s clothing retailer for $1.8 billion.
Chesapeake Energy Corp. (CHK 23.60, +0.30, +1.29%) rose 1% after China’s Cnooc Ltd. (CEO 213.79, -0.62, -0.29%) said it would acquire one-third of the company’s Eagle Ford shale project in Texas. On the New York Mercantile Exchange, gold ended at $1,354.40 an ounce, while oil finished at $82.11 a barrel. The dollar on Monday gained against the euro and Japanese yen after steadily dropping in recent weeks against both currencies. During the weekend, a meeting of the International Monetary Fund and Group of 20 finance ministers failed to reach any new accords regarding recent currency moves.
