Post No. 739 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 and recent Dow 30 component's SEC filings.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Friday at 11,203.55 up 22.32 or 0.2% from Thursday's close of 11,181.23. For the week the Dow was up 10.75 or 0.09% from last Friday's close of 11,192.8. Of the 30 Dow Jones component companies 17 gained and 13 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Hewlett-Packard HPQ $42.48 +0.79 1.89% 18,697,420 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Boeing BA $63.54 -1.07 1.66% 8,005,371 NYSE.

As of the open of the market Friday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of Mon's Wall St. Journal is 0.132129493. The trailing P/E is 14.27 up from Thursday's 14.05 (year ago it was 17.90); the P/E estimate is 13.22 unchanged from Thursday's 13.22 (year ago it was 15.82) and the dividend yield is 2.55 down from Thursday's 2.59 (last year it was 2.67). 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 1,480.32 up 6.98 from Thursday's closing numerator of 1,473.36. 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 Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $49.34 up 0.23 from Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $49.11. The median closing price of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $42.59 (AXP/HPQ) up 0.63 from Thursday's closing median price of $41.96. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $85.01 -0.54 0.63% 3,206,168 NYSE and the highest volume was again Bank of America BAC $11.639 -0.061 0.52% 94,599,614 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 $696 ($148,032 - $147,336)

A read of Friday's Wall St. Journal, Financial Times, Investor's Business Daily, New York Times, USA Today, San Antonio Express News 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 Thursday's stock prices and related data.

Dow:The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Thursday at 11,181.23 up 173.35 or 1.57% from Wednesday's close of 11,007.88. Of the 30 Dow Jones component companies 29 gained and 1 declined.

WSJ pC1 "Blue chips halt 3 day skid" by Jonathan Cheng says US investors jumped into the global stock rally finding reasons for optimism where they saw only gloom days earlier. The gains were fueled by most of he same factors that buffeted markets Tues. Investors had fretted that China would slam the brakes on its economy but those concerns eased overnight helping send Chinese stocks higher which momentum continued in Europe as Ireland relented on its refusal to accept int'l aid. In the US here was lower than expected jobless claims.

NYT pB9 "Stocks surge worldwide on the prospect of a rescue for Ireland"by Christine Hauser says stocks in the US rose Thurs after Ireland said it would seek billions in aid from int'l lenders to rescue its banks. That eased concerns about the health of Europe's fin'l system and helped buoy investor sentiment globally.

USA Today p4B "Stocks bounce back on Irish rescue by Bloomberg says stocks staged their biggest rally in 2 weeks Thurs as speculation grew that Ireland will accept a bailout to rescue indebted banks and reports on manufacturing and jobless claims bolstered optimism about the economy.

Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,473.36 up 18.92 from Wednesday's closing numerator of 1,454.46. 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 Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $49.11 up 0.63 from Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $48.48. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $41.96 (AXP/HPQ) up 0.77 from Wednesday's closing median price of $41.19.

If Thursday 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 $1,890 ($147,336 - $145,446.)

MarketWatch Thursday 11/18/10 4:30 pm by Kate Gibson Gibson says U.S stocks rallied Thursday, nearly erasing their week-to-date losses, as investors welcomed General Motors Co. back to the public market and found solace in economic data and a likely rescue for Irish banks. “For now, the market is ignoring higher rates while it celebrates the GM IPO and the big number on the Philly Fed survey,” said Elliot Spar, market strategist at Stifel, Nicolaus & Co. Among U.S. economic data, the four-week average of new jobless claims hit a two-year low and the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia reported a surge in regional manufacturing activity. Read about the Philly Fed. After two days of losses that shaved 194 points off the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA 11,181, +173.20, +1.57%) , the blue-chip index recouped the bulk of those losses Thursday, to end up 173.35 points, or 1.6%, to 11,181.23. Twenty-nine of the Dow’s 30 components were rising, led by aluminum producer Alcoa Inc. (AA 13.47, +0.09, +0.67%) , up 3.4%. Intel Corp. (INTC 20.95, -0.07, -0.31%) was the sole decliner, its shares off 0.3% after a J.P. Morgan analyst wrote in a note that the chip maker appears headed toward the lower end of its fourth-quarter revenue forecast. The S&P 500 Index (SPX 1,197, +18.10, +1.54%) rose 18.10 points, or 1.5%, to 1,196.69. “For those that were looking to buy in the 1,150 to 1,160 area on the S&P, including myself, we have been left at the station,” said Spar, adding that he sees the next level of resistance on the S&P at 1,205 to 1,207. Natural-resource and energy performed best among the S&P’s 10 industry groups, with commodities prices on the rise and a large acquisition in the energy sector. Walter Energy Inc. (WLT 96.60, -0.26, -0.27%) , which produces steelmaking coal, offered to buy Canada’s Western Coal Corp. (CA:WTN 10.85, +3.47, +47.02%) for $3.2 billion as a means of increasing its access to the commodity amid escalating demand and prices. The Nasdaq Composite Index (COMP 2,514, +38.39, +1.55%) gained 38.39 points, or 1.6%, to 2,514.40. For every stock that fell, nearly five rose on the New York Stock Exchange, where more than 1.2 billion shares traded. Commodities gained along with equities, with gold up 1.2% to finish at $1,353 an ounce on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Crude-oil futures added 1.8% to end at $81.85 a barrel on Nymex. Treasury prices slipped, pushing yields up. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note (UST10Y 2.87, -0.03, -1.00%) , widely used in determining consumer and business loans, rose 1 basis point to 2.90%.
The Federal Reserve has been buying bonds since Nov. 3 in an attempt to curb interest rates and spur borrowing. Global markets have been rattled in recent days by worries about Ireland’s debt troubles and about possible contagion to larger nations such as Portugal and Spain. But confidence was rising that Ireland would reach an agreement with the European Union and International Monetary Fund on an aid package, with EU, IMF and Irish officials meeting Thursday. General Motors Co. (GM 34.07, -0.12, -0.35%) shares gained, ending 3.6% higher, as the auto maker’s initial public offering helped spur investor interest in equities.Shares of GM were offered at $33 each, after the company emerged from a taxpayer-financed bankruptcy.
