Post No. 665 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 9/12/10 and an update of the Dow 30 component's SEC filings as of 9/12/10.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Monday at 10,751.27 down 78.41 or 0.72% from Friday's close of 10,829.68. Of the 30 Dow Jones component companies, 5 gained, Travelers was unchanged and 24 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was and percentage-wise was Walmart WMT $53.57 +0.21 0.39% 7,123,263 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was American Express AXP $39.05 -2.73 6.53% 38,429,949 NYSE.

As of the open of the market Monday, 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 14.61 up from Friday's P/E ratio of 14.56 (year ago it was 15.31) the P/E estimate is 13.01 up from Friday's P/E estimate of 12.84 (year ago it was 15.32) and the current dividend yield is 2.60 down from yesterday's yield of 2.61 (it was 2.94 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 1,420.56 down 10.48 from Friday's closing numerator of 1,430.92. 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 of 10.48 for Monday by the divisor (0.132129493) you get the decrease in Monday's Dow of 78.41. 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 Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $47.35 down 0.35 from Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $47.70. The median closing price of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $39.85 (HPQ/AXP) down $1.42 from Friday's median closing price of $41.27. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $87.7 -0.92 1.05% 2,286,247 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $13.15 -0.15 1.13% 133,368,595 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 lost $1,584 ($143,640 - $142,056).

MarketWatch 10/4/10 Monday 4:21 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks fell Monday, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average ending its worst day in nearly a month, after downgrades hit several sectors, heightening worries about corporate results ahead. Slated to report third-quarter results on Thursday, miner Alcoa Inc. (AA 11.98, +0.06, +0.50%) “may confirm investors’ worries that analysts had too much built into the current numbers that Wall Street can’t meet,” said Jack Ablin, chief investment officer at Harris Private Bank. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA 10,751, -78.41, -0.72%) fell 78.41 points, or 0.7%, to 10,751.27.
The losses were led by American Express Co. (AXP 39.19, +0.14, +0.36%) . Its shares fell 6.5% after the credit-card company said it would contest government allegations that it violated antitrust law over card-acceptance rules. The Justice Department has settled with Visa Inc. (V 73.25, +0.01, +0.01%) and MasterCard Inc. (MA 223.08, +0.44, +0.20%) on the same issue, according to court filings. Shares of Alcoa also weighed on the Dow, down 2.5% after Deutsche Bank recommended selling shares of the aluminum maker, which is scheduled to report third-quarter earnings on Thursday. “Budding doubts about third-quarter corporate earnings later in the week, along with the September payrolls report looming has dented investor sentiment,” offered analysts at Action Economics. Microsoft Corp. (MSFT 23.97, +0.06, +0.25%) shares fell 1.9% after Goldman Sachs rescinded its buy rating on shares of the software giant, pointing to the software giant’s difficulties in gaining traction in the mobile-device market. It also said the rise of tablet computing “adds a new risk to Microsoft’s dominant PC and Office productivity-suit franchises.” The Nasdaq Composite Index (COMP 2,345, -26.23, -1.11%) declined 26.23 points, or 1.1%, to 2,344.52. Separate economic reports showed U.S. factory orders falling 0.5% in August, slightly worse than the 0.4% drop anticipated by analysts. An industry group reports sales of homes across the country climbed 4.3% in August. Read more about pending U.S. home sales. For every stock rising, more than three fell on the New York Stock Exchange, where 943 million shares traded. “Companies have pretty much squeezed all the water out of the rock that they can; it’s hard to see how we can manufacture 16% profit growth in a tepid revenue environment,” offered Harris Private Bank’s Ablin. Analysts also said Wall Street was primed for a retreat after a September rally that pushed the Dow industrials up 10% for the month.
“Given the run of the past six weeks, we could see stocks meander or decline over the next week or two to work off some of the excess enthusiasm,” wrote Paul Nolte, managing director at Dearborn Partners, in a note.

The following are excerpts from Monday morning's Blog.

A read of Monday's Wall St. Journal, Financial Times, New York Times, USA Today, Atlanta Journal Constitution, Daily Report (Ga) & 10/4/10 issue of Barron's 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 10,829.68 up 41.63 or 0.39% from Thursday's close of 10,788.05. For the week the Dow was down 30.98 or 0.28% from last Friday's close of 10,860.66. for the year the Dow is up 3.85%. Of the 30 Dow Jones component companies, 22 gained and 8 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was IBM $135.64 1+.50 1.12% 5,594,538 NYSE and percentage-wise was JPMorgan JPM $38.81 +0.75 1.97% 38,878,218 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Hewlett-Packard HPQ $40.77 -1.30 3.09% 62,882,277 NYSE.

Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,430.92 up 5.50 from Thursday's closing numerator of 1,425.42. 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 5.50 for Friday by the divisor (0.132129493) you get the increase in Friday's Dow of 41.63. 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 $47.70 up 0.19 from Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $47.51. The median closing price of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $41.27 (AXP/HPQ). The lowest volume was 3M MMM $87.62 +0.91 1.05% 3,194,594 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $13.3 +0.1975 1.51% 168,083,571 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 made $1,110 ($143,640 - $142,530).

MarketWatch 10/1/10 Friday 4:38 pm by Steven Russolillo & Kate Gibson says
US stocks kicked off the fourth quarter on a positive note, rising modestly even as a plethora of economic reports, including key manufacturing data, yielded conflicting signals. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA 10,830, +41.63, +0.39%) closed up 42 points, or 0.4%, to 10,830. But the blue-chip index fell 0.3% for the week and snapped a four-week winning streak. J.P. Morgan Chase (JPM 38.82, +0.01, +0.03%) was the Dow’s top gainer, rising 2%, and Bank of America (BAC 13.30, +0.20, +1.51%) gained 1.7%. Friday’s gains come after the Dow surged 7.7% last month, its best September performance since 1939, and rallied 10.4% in the third quarter, its best quarterly performance in a year. Investors are hesitant to put more money into the market at the start of October due to skepticism that the strength seen in September can continue without a pullback. “The fact that we were so ahead of ourselves in September just does not bode well for October,” said Chip Cobb, senior vice president at Bryn Mawr Trust Asset Management. “People just are not willing to commit the money at this point.” The Nasdaq composite (COMP 2,371, +2.13, +0.09%) edged up 0.1% to 2371. The Standard & Poor’s 500-stock index (SPX 1,146, +5.04, +0.44%) rose 0.4% to 1146, led by the energy and materials sectors. The index earlier climbed to as high as 1,150. Traders noted that the S&P 500 has risen above that level in recent days but hasn’t decisively risen above it, adding to the market’s volatility. Trading was jittery after the Institute for Supply Management said the U.S. manufacturing sector expanded in September, but at a slower pace than in August. The benchmark index for airline stocks hits a three-year high as Continental Airlines and the parent for United close their merger deal and begin trading under the symbol UAL. The ISM’s manufacturing purchasing managers index fell to 54.4 from 56.3 in August. Readings above 50 indicate expanding activity, and September was the 14th consecutive month of growth. But investors said certain data points triggered alarm about the economy’s health. “Some of the data points had a lot of weakness in the layers,” said Seth Setrakian, partner and co-head of trading at First New York Securities, a proprietary trading firm. “Backlogs and new orders were down and inventories were way up, which portends declining economic growth in the next few quarters.”
Investors also continued to stew over the possibility of the Federal Reserve taking further action to stimulate the economy. Federal Reserve Bank of New York President William Dudley said on Friday that the central bank is almost certain to have to offer fresh support to ensure that already tepid economic growth doesn’t further falter, although he stopped short of saying what type of stimulus he prefers. Still, further quantitative easing may not erase all the economy’s problems, traders said. “At a certain point, people realize it’s only going to have so much of an impact,” Setrakian said. “The economic numbers are going to start to matter again.” Better-than-expected U.S. personal income and spending data as well as positive Chinese manufacturing figures also fueled Friday’s moves. The Reuters/University of Michigan consumer sentiment index ticked up a bit in September. December gold futures (GCZ10 1,320, +10.80, +0.83%) rose and hit another all-time intra-day high. Crude-oil futures hit a seven-week high, while the U.S. dollar fell against other major currencies. The euro (EURUSD 1.3789, +0.0160, +1.1740%) rose to a new six-month high and was recently trading at $1.3787, up from $1.3632 late Thursday in New York. Among stocks in focus, Dow component Hewlett-Packard Co. (HPQ 40.72, -0.05, -0.12%) fell 3% after it appointed Leo Apotheker as its new chief executive. Apotheker, former SAP CEO, replaces Mark Hurd, who resigned last month amid a sexual-harassment investigation. Gymboree (GYMB 50.25, +0.39, +0.78%) shares surged 20% after The Wall Street Journal reported the children’s clothing retailer is exploring interest in a possible sale of the firm to private-equity companies.
