Post No. 914 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 Dow 30 components' SEC filings as of February 14, 2011.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Thursday at 11,984.61 down 228.48 points or 1.87% from Wednesday's close of 12,213.09. Of the 30 Dow Jones component companies 1 (McDonald's) gained and 29 declined. The only gainer dollar-wise and percentage wise was McDonald's MCD $76.68 +0.90 1.19% 8,118,314 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Catepillar CAT $98.39 -3.97 3.88% 11,785,202 NYSE.
As of the open of the market Thursday, 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 14.84 unchanged from Wednesday's 14.84 (year ago it was 16.48); the P/E estimate is 12.79 unchanged from Wednesday's 12.79 (year ago it was 13.45), and the dividend yield is 2.39 up from Wednesday's 2.38 (last year it was 2.58). 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.
Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,583.52 down 30.19 from Wednesday's closing numerator of 1,613.71. 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 7.57 change in the average.
The average closing price (the closing numerator divided by 30) of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $52.78 down $1.01 from Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $53.79. The median closing price of Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $44.77 (JPM/AXP) down 1.03 from Wednesday's median closing price of $45.80. The lowest volume was Travelers TRV $58.52 -0.88 1.48% 3,621,951 NYSE and the highest volume was again Bank of America BAC $14.26 -0.33 2.26% 154,135,796 NYSE.
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 lost $3,019 ($161,371 - $158,352).
MarketWatch Thursday 3/10/11 4:36 by Brendan Conway says US stocks closed with broad, steep losses Thursday after rumblings of unrest in Saudi Arabia compounded economic worries abroad and in the U.S. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA 11,985, -228.48, -1.87%) closed under 12,000 for the first time since Jan. 31, falling 228.48 points, or 1.9%, to 11,984.61. Pressure on the major indexes intensified late in the day with reports that Saudi Arabian police fired rubber bullets to disperse about 200 Shiite protesters in the eastern town of Qatif, injuring at least three. Major indexes had already been lower after a downgrade of Spain’s government debt, worry about trade in China and a disappointing read on U.S. employment. One day ahead of an expected “day of rage” by protesters in Saudi Arabia, the reaction to the gunfire reports illustrated investors’ sensitivity to signs of unrest in the oil-rich kingdom. “Saudi Arabia is the most important component for oil exports,” said Karl Mills, chief investment officer at Jurika Mills & Kiefer. Mills cautioned that the country is in a different situation than in Libya, but turmoil there could “cause some fear and panic in the markets.” Caterpillar, Inc. (CAT 98.36, -0.03, -0.03%) shares led the Dow lower, falling 3.9%. Energy stocks were also weak as Exxon Mobil Corp. (XOM 81.41, +0.03, +0.04%) fell 3.6%. All of the Dow’s components were in the red except for McDonald’s Corp.(MCD 76.64, -0.04, -0.05%), which rose 1.2%. It was the biggest point and percentage drop for the Dow since Aug. 11. The Standard & Poor’s 500-stock index (SPX 1,295, -24.91, -1.89%) retreated 24.91 points, or 1.9%, to 1,295.11 as its energy and materials components slumped. The Nasdaq Composite (COMP 2,701, -50.70, -1.84%) fell 50.70 points, or 1.8%, to 2,701.02. Before the Saudi reports, stocks were lower as Moody’s Investor Service downgraded Spanish debt and China reported the slowest export growth since 2009 in February compared with the year-ago period. The market also got a disappointing read on the state of employment in the U.S. The Labor Department reported initial claims for unemployment benefits unexpectedly rose for the week ended March 5. Separately, the Commerce Department said the trade deficit hit its highest level in seven months. “It’s really been the headlines from the Middle East that continue to dominate market sentiment,” said Joseph Tanious, market strategist at J.P. Morgan Funds, overshadowing the past few months’ stronger U.S. economic data and other positives in investors’ focus. Among stocks in focus, General Motors Co. (GM 31.42, -0.83, -2.57%) fell 2.6% after the auto maker said Chief Financial Officer Chris Liddell will leave the company early next month. Green Mountain Coffee Roasters (GMCR 61.71, +18.07, +41.41%) soared 41% after the company and Starbucks Corp. (SBUX 37.60, -0.37, -0.97%) announced a partnership for the sale of Starbucks and Tazo-tea-branded K-Cup portion packs for use in Green Mountain’s Keurig Single-Cup brewing system. Starbucks rose 10%.
Human Genome Sciences Inc. (HGSI 28.92, -0.11, -0.38%) rose 13% after the Food and Drug Administration approved a lupus drug that will be the first new treatment for the autoimmune disease in more than 50 years.
H&R Block Inc. (HRB 15.84, +0.65, +4.28%) swung to a fiscal third-quarter loss. The nation’s biggest tax preparer said an “industry-wide slow start to tax season” hurt revenue, but shares rose 4.3% as the company said total tax returns prepared rose 6% as of Feb. 28 and total online returns rose more than 30%. Jackson Hewitt Tax Services Inc. (JTX 0.74, -0.02, -2.62%) shares plunged 41%. Earnings per share in the company’s third quarter were lower than expected. Coldwater Creek Inc.’s (CWTR 2.61, -0.30, -10.31%) stock fell 10%. Losses at the retailer grew in the fiscal fourth quarter as sales fell more than expected.

The following are excerpts from Thursday morning's Blog.
A read of the print editions of Thursday's Wall St. Journal, Financial Times, New York Times, USA Today, Atlanta Journal Constitution & Daily Report (Ga. - carries Bloomberg) 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 Wednesday's stock prices and related data.
Dow Jones Industrial Average: The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Wednesday at 12,213.09 down 1.29 points or 1.01% from Tuesday's close of 12,214.38. For the year the Dow is up 5.490%. Of the 30 Dow Jones component companies 13 gained and 17 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage wise was IBM $165.86 +3.58 2.21% 9,059,826 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Caterpillar CAT $102.36 -1.77 1.7% 6,371,059 NYSE.
WSJ pC5 "Stock prices ease; Boston Beer loses 4.3%" by Kristina Peterson says stocks edged narrowly lower as tensions in Libya trapped trading in a tight range on the 2 year anniversary of the bull market's start.
Fin Times p24 "Disappointing Finisar earnings forecst sparks tech sector slide" by Michael Stothard says Wall St marked the 2 year anniversary of the bull market with a whimper, edging lower on continuing concern over the turmoil in n Africa & the Mid East & some disappointing earnings forecasts in the tech sector after Finisar gave a worse than expected earnings forecast. Industrials fell with Caterpillar, the world's biggest maker of earth moving equipment falling 1.7%.
NYT pB10 "Shares decline as violence in Libya Weighs on Markets" & USA Today p4B "Stocks slip as Libya worries continue" both by Bloomberg says stocks fell Wed sending the S&P 500 lower a 3rd time in 4 days as violence in Libya termpered optimism that the biggest stock rally since '55 will extend into a 3rd year.
Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,613.71 down 0.17 from Tuesday's closing numerator of 1,613.88. 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 7.57 change in the average.
The average closing price (the closing numerator divided by 30) of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $53.79 down $0.01 from Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $53.80. The median closing price of Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $45.80 (JPM/AXP) up 0.98 from Tuesday's median closing price of $44.82. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $93.17 -0.58 0.62% 2,116,833 NYSE and the highest volume was again Bank of America BAC $14.59 -0.10 0.68% 147,925,654 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 $17 ($161,388 - $161,371).
MarketWatch Wednesday 3/9/11 4:43 by Kristina Peterson says US stocks ended slightly lower Wednesday as tensions in Libya trapped trading in a tight range on the two-year anniversary of the bull market’s start. The Standard & Poor’s 500-stock index (SPX 1,320, -1.80, -0.14%) slipped 1.80 points, or 0.14%, to 1,320.02, exactly two years after the measure hit its lowest close of the bear market at 677. Since March 9, 2009, the S&P 500 has surged more than 95%. That is the strongest two-year bull market since 1962, and one that added $6.2 trillion in market capitalization to the S&P 500, according to Birinyi Associates. The Nasdaq Composite (COMP 2,752, -14.05, -0.51%) fell 14.05, or 0.51%, to 2751.72. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA 12,213, -1.29, -0.01%) edged down 1.29 points, or 0.01%, to 12213.09 on Wednesday, a gain of nearly 87% from its March 2009 low of 6,547. Earlier this year, the S&P 500 had doubled its level from the March 2009 lows, but it has pulled back recently in the wake of unrest in the Middle East and North Africa. On Wednesday, prices for crude oil retreated slightly, with Nymex crude for April delivery (CLJ11 104.44, -0.58, -0.55%) settling below $105 a barrel as an increase in U.S. oil stockpiles briefly turned traders’ attention from the fighting in Libya. Investors predicted the market would trade sideways in the absence of any significant data or development overseas. “We’ll see this up-and-down motion until the Middle East situation calms down one way or the other,” said Dick Del Bello, senior partner at Conifer Group. “The improvement in the jobs picture is actually overshadowed by the unrest in the Middle East and the potential for oil prices to rise,” he said. “I think we are going to waffle here for a while.” Read B. of. A. Merrill’s warning of global recession if oil gets too high. Others said the market had been looking for an excuse to slow its rapid climb since August and could resume its upward momentum. ?With a stalemate looming in Libya between Gadhafi-backed forces and rebels, the U.S. and its allies still have a no-fly zone on the table. “To this point, there’s not enough clear evidence of economic weakness or enough rise in the price of energy to cause economic weakness—this is more an excuse to correct,” said Bruce McCain, chief investment strategist at Key Private Bank. “Unless something truly blows up in the Middle East with respect to oil supplies, probably some of that uncertainty will die down and we’ll see the market go back to rally mood again.” In U.S. economic data Wednesday, wholesale inventories rose a more-than-expected 1.1% to a seasonally adjusted $436.88 billion in January, its highest level since November 2008. Economists had predicted a 0.9% increase. Meanwhile, sales rose 3.4%, boosted by sales of cars and petroleum. The dollar weakened against both the euro and the yen. The euro (EURUSD 1.3908, +0.0004, +0.0288%) was trading recently at $1.3905, little changed from its level late Tuesday in New York. In a bond auction, Portugal sold the maximum intended EUR1 billion ($1.39 billion) of debt but had to pay a high yield that did little to reduce expectations the country will end up asking for a bailout.Among stocks in focus, American Eagle Outfitters (AEO 15.69, +0.13, +0.84%) shares climbed 5.1% after the teen-apparel retailer’s fourth-quarter earnings rose 47%, beating its revised estimate, as cost cuts offset lower sales. Walgreen Co. (WAG 42.39, -0.22, -0.52%) shares added 0.5% the drug-store chain agreed to sell its pharmacy benefit management unit to Catalyst Health Solutions Inc. (CHSI 53.47, +0.67, +1.27%) for $525 million. Shares of Catalyst Health surged 19%. U.S.-listed shares of Nokia Corp. (NOK 8.61, +0.01, +0.12%) rose 1.1% after the Finnish cell-phone giant said it will continue selling handsets that use its own Symbian operating system for as long as it is profitable to do so. Bernstein also upgraded the company to “market perform” from “underperform” late Tuesday. Finisar (FNSR 24.66, +0.05, +0.20%) shares tumbled 39% after the fiber-optic equipment maker’s fiscal third-quarter earnings more than tripled, but it offered a weak forecast for the current quarter. JDS Uniphase (JDSU 21.13, -0.01, -0.05%) lost 17%.
Boston Beer (SAM 89.94, -4.07, -4.33%) shares fell 4.3% after the brewer’s fourth-quarter earnings fell short of analysts’ expectations and the brewer gave a downbeat earnings projection for the year. Boeing Co. (BA 72.16, +0.07, +0.09%) shares edged up 0.1% after completing a deal to sell eight airliners to OAO Aeroflot for $2 billion. Demand for U.S. Treasurys rose, pushing the yield on the 10-year note (UST10Y 3.47, -0.08, -2.17%) down to 3.47%. Read more on bonds. Gold futures also climbed, while copper futures tumbled.
