The following are excerpts from Tuesday morning's Blog.

A read of the print editions of Tuesday'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 Monday's stock prices and related data.

Dow Jones Industrial Average: The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Monday at 11,980.52 up 108.68 points or 0.92% from Friday's close of 11,871.84. For the year the Dow is up 3.48%. Of the 30 Dow Jones component companies 24 gained and 6 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Caterpillar CAT $94.57 +1.82 1.96% 4,575,359 NYSE and percentage-wise was Alcoa AA $16.43 +0.64 4.05% 41,456,298 NYSE.

WSJ pC1 "Rallying stocks near to 12000" by Jonathan Cheng says the Dow came within a breadth of 12000 as investors embraced positive corp earnings and looked ahead to this week's State of the Union address. On the heels of its 8th week in a row of gains, the Dow had its biggest jump in 2 months. Recent earnings from GE and IBM and positive economic data have helped retain the momentum.

Fin times p24 "Halliburton's doubled earnings help bolster investor sentiment" by Michael Stothard says Halliburton's doubled 4Q earnings boosted the oilfield services sector and lifted sentiment for US equities.

USA Today p4B "Stocks surge on investors' optimism" by Bloomberg says stocks advanced Mon, sending the Dow to the highest level since June '08, as acquisitions, share buyback plans & divid prospects bolstered investors' optimism.

Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,582.98 up 14.79 from Friday's closing numerator of 1,568.19. 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 7.57 change in the average.

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 made $1,426 ($158,298 -$156,862).

MarketWatch Monday 1/24/11 4:44 by Kate Gibson says US stocks shot higher Monday, bringing the Dow Jones Industrial Average within close reach of 12,000 for the first time since mid-2008, as deal-making and share buybacks heightened confidence. The Dow (DJIA 11,981, +108.68, +0.92%) closed up 108.68 points, or 0.9%, at 11,980.52. Of its 30 components, 24 advanced, led by a 4.1% gain in the shares of aluminum producer Alcoa Inc. (AA 16.39, -0.04, -0.24%) . It was the blue-chip index’s first triple-digit gain of the year. Moscow Producers of raw materials were bolstered after Smurfit-Stone Container Corp. (SSCC 35.18, +0.18, +0.51%) , which is not in the Dow, agreed to be acquired for $3.5 billion. Technology shares advanced after Dow-component Intel Corp. (INTC 21.23, -0.01, -0.05%) added $10 billion to its stock-repurchase plan. Intel shares rose 2%. McDonald’s (MCD 75.30, -0.08, -0.11%) , also part of the Dow, reported its net income rose 2% in the fourth quarter; its shares edged up 0.5% after initial losses. The Dow has not hit or risen above 12,000 since June 2008. It first closed above 12,000 on Oct. 19, 2006.The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index (SPX 1,291, +7.49, +0.58%) added 7.49 points, or 0.6%, to 1,290.84, with technology companies and natural-resource stocks pacing the gains. Last week, the Dow tallied an eighth straight week of gains while the S&P 500 halted a seven-week climb. 118590 “The winning streak for the S&P has come to an end, but that doesn’t mean we’re about to see a correction that starts with a straight line down,” said Marc Pado, U.S. market strategist at Cantor Fitzgerald. “This can be a very constructive correction, unwinding the overbought condition but not undermine the bigger picture,” Pado added. The Nasdaq Composite (COMP 2,718, +28.01, +1.04%) climbed 28.01 points, or 1.04%, to 2,717.55. The technology-laden index on Friday retreated as investors mulled the surprise announcement by Google Inc. (GOOG 609.72, -1.36, -0.22%) that co-founder Larry Page would take over as chief executive of the internet search company. For every stock falling, nearly three gained on the New York Stock Exchange, where nearly 962 million shares had traded. That’s 105% of the 30-day average volume. Halliburton Co.’s (HAL 39.60, +0.05, +0.13%) shares gained 0.9% after the oil-services company tallied a fourth-quarter profit that topped expectations. After Monday’s close, American Express Co. (AXP 45.16, -0.63, -1.38%) shares fell 0.9% after the credit-card issuer, a Dow component, reported fourth-quarter results. CSX Corp. (CSX 69.15, +1.44, +2.13%) shares rose 2.6% higher in late trading after reporting a 42% surge in profit. Also after the bell, Texas Instruments Inc. (TXN 33.95, -0.70, -2.02%) reported fourth-quarter net income of $942 million, or 78 cents a share, compared with a profit of $655 million, or 52 cents a share, for the year-earlier period.
