Post No. 785 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 Dec. 7, 2010 and Dow 30 component's SEC filings as of Dec. 11, 2010.

A read of Monday's (12/20/10) Barron's, Wall St. Journal,Financial Times, New York Times, USA Today, 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 11,491.91 down 7.34 points or 0.06% from Thursday's close of 11,499.25. For the week the Dow is up 81.59 points or 0.72% from last Friday's close of 11,410.32. For the year the Dow is up 10.20%. Of the 30 Dow Jones component companies 13 gained and 17 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Boeing BA $65.03 +0.63 0.98% 7,535,740 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Caterpillar CAT $92.59 -0.61 0.65% 5,703,793 NYSE and percentage-wise was Pfizer PFE $17.03 -0.19 1.1% 50,335,918 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 is 14.65 down up from Friday's P/E of 14.66 (year ago it was 17.92); the P/E estimate is 13.43 unchanged from Friday's 13.43 (year ago it was 16.00) and the dividend yield is 2.50 up from Friday's dividend yield of 2.49 (last year it was 2.69). 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 1,518.41 down 0.97 from Thursday's closing numerator of 1,519.39. 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 $50.61 down $0.04 from Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $50.65. The median closing price of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $41.48 (HPQ/AXP) down 1.78 from Thursday's closing median price of $43.26. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $86.37 -0.03 0.03% 3,458,432 NYSE and the highest volume was again Bank of America BAC $12.57 +0.05 0.4% 149,071,053 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 $109 ($151,950 - $151,841)

MarketWatch Friday 12/18/10 4:52 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stock benchmarks Friday extended gains to a third-straight week after a lackluster session highlighted by upbeat reports from Oracle Corp. and Research in Motion Ltd.
After brief forays into positive turf, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA 11,492, -7.34, -0.06%) closed off 7.34 points, or 0.1%, at 11,491.91, with its 17 of its 30 components lower. Disappointment over the outcome of a European Union summit, which bolstered the U.S. dollar, weighed on the index. The S&P 500 (SPX 1,244, +1.04, +0.08%) ended up 1.04 points, or 0.1%, at 1,243.91, with materials the best performer and telecommunications the weakest of its 10 industry groups. It was the benchmark’s highest close since September 2008. “The market is saying, ‘We’re going to wrap it up for the year,’ and today we’re meandering around zero,” said John Canally, an analyst at LPL Financial. Friday’s quarterly options and futures expiration had the possibility of adding volatility to the market as traders closed out positions, analysts said, although as the afternoon progressed, that did not appear to be the case.The Nasdaq Composite (COMP 2,643, +5.66, +0.22%) climbed 5.66 points, or 0.2%, to 2,642.97. For the week, the Dow gained 0.7%, the S&P 500 added 0.3%, and the Nasdaq Composite advanced 0.2%. It was the third-straight week of gains for the Dow and the S&P 500 and the fourth for the Nasdaq Composite. For every seven stocks on the decline, eight were rising on the New York Stock Exchange, where 2 billion shares traded hands. Signaling the recovery should pick up steam early next year, the Conference Board’s index of leading economic indicators in November made its biggest jump in eight months.
The index, which tracks data including orders for new goods, climbed 1.1%, as economists surveyed by MarketWatch had expected. Concerns from overseas were again in play after Moody’s Investors Service downgraded Ireland’s government-bond rating by five notches and said the country had a weak economic outlook.“Unfortunately we’re still in an environment where European sovereign debt is still an issue, and then the dollar goes up a bit, commodities go up a bit and U.S. equities get hit a little bit,” said Art Hogan, chief market strategist at Jefferies & Co. Technology offered investors a bit of bullish momentum, with quarterly results from software giant Oracle (ORCL 31.49, +0.03, +0.09%) and Blackberry maker Research In Motion (RIMM 60.16, -0.04, -0.07%) topping Wall Street’s expectations late Thursday. Oracle shares ended up 3.9%, while Research in Motion’s U.S. shares gained 1.6%.
Ahead of Wall Street’s open, the Bank of Montreal said it would buy Wisconsin-based Marshall & Ilsley Corp. (MI 6.85, +0.01, +0.15%) for $4.1 billion in stock, triggering a rally in regional bank stocks.On Friday, President Barack Obama signed a bipartisan tax package, extending Bush-era tax cuts for virtually all American workers for another two years. The U.S. House passed the legislation Thursday night.
Benjamin Pemental of Marketwatch says US technology stocks edged higher Friday, as shares of Oracle Corp. jumped nearly 4% a day after the software giant posted upbeat results. Oracle (ORCL 31.46, -.00, -0.01%) rose 3.9% to close at $31.46, as the Redwood City, Calif.-based tech giant beat Wall Street’s expectations. “Oracle provided a holiday present for shareholders by easily exceeding expectations for the November quarter and impressively, guidance for the February quarter was well above consensus estimates,” J.P. Morgan analyst John DiFucci said in a note. Obama's success in moving a tax plan through Congress is the opening step on a new, more centrist course White House officials hope will yield results. Shares of Research In Motion (RIMM 60.20, +0.96, +1.62%) were up 1.6% to close at $60.20, after the maker of the BlackBerry device reported a 45% jump in profit.
Shares of Take-Two Interactive (TTWO 12.95, +0.02, +0.16%) jumped 8.3% to close at $12.93, after the video game publisher reported results showing it swinging to a profit. The triple play helped keep the sector afloat, as the Nasdaq Composite Index (COMP 2,643, +5.66, +0.22%) held on to modest gains, rising 0.2% to close at 2,643. The Morgan Stanley High Tech 35 Index (MSH 658.90, +2.10, +0.32%) rose 0.4%, while the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index (SOX 411.44, +2.73, +0.67%) was up 0.7%. But the sector was weighed down by losses in shares of Google Inc. (GOOG 590.68, -0.12, -0.02%) , Cisco Systems (CSCO 19.50, -0.05, -0.24%) and eBay Inc. (EBAY 29.90, +0.08, +0.27%).
