The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Wednesday at 11,150.91 up 150.91 or up 1.37% from Tuesday's close of 11,036.37. Of the 30 Dow Jones component companies only Hewlett-Packard and Procter & Gamble gained and 18 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was percentage-wise was Hewlett-Packard HPQ $43.745 +0.445 1.01% 27,894,532 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was IBM $145.81 -2.63 1.84% 4,873,319 NYSE and percentage-wise was Boeing BA $65.41 -1.81 2.85% 6,204,355 NYSE.


As of the open of the market Wednesday, 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 14.08 down from Tuesday's 14.26(year ago it was 18.10); the P/E estimate is 13.17 unchanged from Tuesday's 13.17 (year ago it was 16.04) and the dividend yield is 2.58 up from Tuesday's 2.55 (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.

Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,478.17 up 19.94 from Tuesday's closing numerator of 1,458.23. 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 Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $49.27 up 0.66 from Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $48.61.

If Wednesday 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 $1,994 ($147,817 - $145,823)

MarketWatch Wednesday 11/24/10 4:47 Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks rallied in thin pre-holiday trade Wednesday, reclaiming ground lost in the previous session after data cast an optimistic light on jobs and consumers as holiday-shopping season begins. The market will be closed on Thursday for the Thanksgiving holiday. “The economic data stream continues to perform much better than expected,” said Art Hogan, chief market strategist at Jefferies & Co. Economic reports showed U.S. jobless claims last week sliding to 2008 lows and consumer confidence and spending rising. Data illustrating a steep drop in new-home sales and manufacturing orders were less positive. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA 11,187, +150.91, +1.37%) finished up 150.91 points, or 1.4%, at 11,187.28, with all but three of its 30 components trading higher. The gain more than made up for a 142-point slide in the previous session. The S&P 500 Index /(SPX 1,198, +17.62, +1.49%) rose 17.62 points, or 1.5%, to 1,198.35, with the industrials and consumer-discretionary sectors leading gains among its 10 industry groups and Tiffany & Co. (TIF 61.45, +0.12, +0.20%) among its notable advancers. “The S&P is approaching resistance at 1,200,” noted Elliot Spar, market strategist at Stifel Nicolaus. If the S&P 500 closes above 1,200 on Friday, the scenario would “set the stage for a challenge of the recent high at 1,227,” Spar added in an afternoon research note. Tiffany shares rose 5.3% after the upscale jewelry retailer reported better-than-expected earnings and offered hopeful words about holiday sales. Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN 177.25, +9.05, +5.38%) added 5.4% after Citigroup Inc. said the online retailer is gaining the most from rising Internet sales. Since 1983, the S&P 500 has risen the day before Thanksgiving 80% of the time, said Hogan. Up 1% for the week so far, the Nasdaq Composite Index (COMP 2,543, +48.17, +1.93%) gained 48.17 points, or 1.9%, to 2,543.12. For every stock that fell, five rose on the New York Stock Exchange, where nearly 829.8 million shares traded. Confident consumer? Wednesday’s gains came after a report showed jobless claims fell by 34,000 to 407,000 last week, while the Thomson Reuters/University of Michigan index of consumer sentiment climbed to 71.6 in October, its highest level since June. The data showing a decline in applications for jobless benefits propelled shares of staffing companies higher, with Monster Worldwide Inc. (MWW 22.34, -0.02, -0.09%) up 9.6% and Robert Half International Inc. (RHI 28.13, +1.01, +3.72%) rose 3.7% and Kforce Inc. (KFRC 15.43, +0.43, +2.87%) gained 2.9%. Other economic data had demand for new homes and orders for durable goods declining, while U.S. household purchases gained. On Thursday, U.S. markets will be closed for the Thanksgiving holiday, with the stock market slated for an early close Friday.

WSJ pC5 "Dow falls 142.21, led by Microsoft by Steven Russolillo says stocks tumbled as investors fretted over the skirmish between N. Korea and S. Korea, lingering eurozone debt uncertainty & the fed res downgrading its US economic projections. Microsoft led the Dow's declines, slumping 61 cents. Hewlett-Packard was the only component of the Dow to rise, gaining 94 cents due to strong 4Q results and a better than expected forecast.

NYT pB9 "Wall St falls, unsettled by debt crisis & Korea" by Christine Hauser says shares on Wall St. declined on Tues as heightened uncertainty over conflictin Asia and the debt crisis in Europe sent investors fleeing for safer assets.

USA Today p6B "Global worries push markets down" by Bloomberg says stocks dropped for a 2nd day on Tues after fighting broke out between N. & S. Korea & concern grew that Europe's debt crisis & China's efforts to tame inflation will slow the global economic rebound.

Post No. 756 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: The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Wednesday at 11,006.02 down 46.47 or 0.42% from Tuesday's close of 11,006.02 Of the 30 Dow Jones component companies gained and declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was NYSE and percentage-wise was NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was NYSE and percentage-wise was NYSE.

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 is 14.03 down from Tuesday's 14.09 (year ago it was 18.17); the P/E estimate is 12.95 unchanged from Tuesday's 12.95 (year ago it was 16.04) and the dividend yield is 2.60 up from Tuesday'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.

Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,454.21 down 6.15 from Tuesday's closing numerator of 1,454.21. 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 Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $48.47 down 0.21 from Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $48.47. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $42.58 down 0.35 (HPQ/AXP) up 0.30 from Tuesday's closing median price of $42.58. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $83. NYSE and the highest volume was again Bank of America BAC $10. NYSE.

If Wednesday 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 $ ($145,422)
