A read of Monday's 10/18/10, Saturday's 10/17/10 Wall St. Journal, Financial Times, New York Times, & 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 Friday's stock prices and related data.
Dow:The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Friday at 11,062 down 31.79 or 0.29% from Thursday's close of 11,094.57. For the week the Dow was up 56.3 or 0.51% from last Friday's Close of 11,006.48. For the year the Dow is up 6.09%. Of the 30 Dow Jones component companies 11 gained, 2 (Intel & Alcoa) were unchanged and 17 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Hewlett-Packard HPQ $42.82 +0.69 1.64% 23,620,801 NYSE.

WSJ pB5 "techs bounce, banks tumble" by Donna Yesalavich says strong earnings from Google powered the S&P 500 higher Fri, giving a big boost to the tech sector as Google leapt above the $600 mark. Google's report lifted the broader tech sector with Hewlett-Packard rising 69 cents. However the Dow slipped due to disappointing rev at GE & weakness in fin'ls as worries persisted over the foreclosure crisis. Bank of America fell 62 cents after S&P Equity Research cut its investment rating to hold from strong buy saying it may be less prepared than peers for future mortgage repurchase demands. JPMorgan dropped $1.57.
Fin Times p16 "Techs climb after Google brings up the right results" by Telis Demos says a peek into Google's businesses sparked further gains for tech groups, the best performing sector on the week.
NYT pB7 "Mixed end to a bad day for the fin'l sector" by Christine Hauser says stocks were mixed Fri as investors weighed encouraging retail news 7 signs of new Fed measures to bolster the economy against the impact of the tangled foreclosure process on the nation's banks.
As of the close of the market Friday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page B4 of today's Wall St. Journal is 0.132129493, the trailing P/E ratio is 14.88 down from Friday's P/E ratio of 14.91 (year ago it was 16.06) the P/E estimate is 13.25 up from Friday's P/E estimate of 13.15 (year ago it was 16.02) and the current dividend yield is 2.55 up from yesterday's yield of 2.54 (it was 2.80 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 1,461.62 down 4.3 from Thursday's closing numerator of 1,465.92. 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 for today by the divisor (0.132129493) you get the decrease 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 Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $48.72 down 0.14 from Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $48.86. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $38.12 (AXP/jpm) down 2.67 from Thursday's median price of $40.79. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $89.14 +0.07 0.08% 3,097,026 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $11.98 -0.62 4.92% 596,222,235 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 $432 ($146,592 - $146,160).
MarketWatch 10/15/10 Friday 4:36 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks finished mostly higher on Friday, after strong earnings from Google Inc. helped offset concerns over a foreclosure crisis for financials. Peter Hooper, chief economist at Deutsche Bank Securities, tells MarketWatch's Greg Robb that a second round of quantitative easing won't provide a big boost to the economy but could help stabilize it. In addition, comments from Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke reinforced investors’ expectations for more stimulus from the central bank, but some began to question whether the market has overly priced that in. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA 11,063, -31.79, -0.29%) still fell 31.79 points, or 0.3%, to 11,062.78. General Electric (GE 16.30, -0.86, -5.01%) was the measure’s worst performer, falling 5% as the conglomerate’s revenue came in short of Wall Street’s expectations. Financial stocks were also weak as concerns over the foreclosure crisis persisted. Bank of America Corp. (BAC 11.99, +0.01, +0.08%) fell 4.9% as S&P Equity Research cut its investment rating on the bank’s shares to hold from strong buy, citing concerns that it may be less prepared than peers for future mortgage repurchase demands. J.P. Morgan Chase (JPM 37.35, +0.20, +0.54%) dropped 4%. Read more in Financial Stocks. “The risk is if there’s wrongdoing or things were wrong, they may be responsible for buying back some of these mortgages which would put pressure on their earnings,” said David Bellantonio, head of U.S. trading at Instinet. “The weakness in the banks is keeping pressure on the market.” Still, the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite Index (COMP 2,469, +33.39, +1.37%) climbed 1.4% to 2,468.77, boosted by an 11% jump in Google (GOOG 602.02, +0.57, +0.10%) .The Internet search giant reported a 32% rise in third-quarter profit, beating Wall Street estimates. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index (SPX 1,176, +2.38, +0.20%) rose 0.2% to 1,176.19 as strength in the technology sector offset declines across financials. The mixed activity came as Bernanke made a case Friday morning for new steps by the Fed to boost economic growth. The speech reinforced expectations for more stimulus measures but prompted some confusion over whether the market may have been anticipating a bigger move than the Fed may be planning. Bernanke makes case for cautious easing. “The market has run for a month on Mr. Bernanke saying he might provide more liquidity,” noted Russell Napier, global strategist at CLSA. “It travels on expectations but it can’t travel forever on expectations.” Napier said Bernanke’s comments indicated the Fed may be considering measures with less magnitude than the level of support investors have been pricing in. “There would appear — all else being equal — to be a case for further action,” Bernanke said. But as the Fed contemplates doing more, Bernanke said officials “will take account of the potential costs and risks” of pursuing unconventional policies, and anything that is done will be “contingent on incoming information about the economic outlook and financial conditions.” Bernanke noted inflation was running below the Fed’s objective of 2% and that the economy was on a course to grow too slowly to bring down unemployment. Data released Friday showed the seasonally adjusted consumer price index for September rose by 0.1% from August while the underlying inflation rate was unchanged in September. Among other data released Friday, the Reuters/University of Michigan consumer sentiment index indicated the consumer mood darkened in early October, but September retail sales and October New York manufacturing activity improved more than expected. Read more on consumer prices. In addition, inventories at U.S. businesses rose more than expected in August, but business sales didn’t rise as much as the inventories. Read more on retail sales. The U.S. dollar index, (DXY 76.98, +0.33, +0.43%) , which measures the U.S. currency against a basket of six others, edged up 0.4%. Treasurys were mixed, with the two-year slightly higher, pushing its yield down to 0.36%. The 10-year note (UST10Y 2.56, +0.06, +2.27%) fell, lifting its yield to 2.57%. Crude-oil futures and gold futures declined. Shares of Mattel (MAT 22.44, -0.01, -0.05%) fell 6.5% as investors were disappointed by slumping revenue at the toy maker’s Fisher-Price division in the third quarter. Seagate Technology PLC (STX 15.59, +0.08, +0.52%) surged 22% after the company said it has been approached by an unnamed party interested in taking the storage-drive maker private, a move that comes as interest in the broad data management sector heats up.
