Post No. 904 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 Friday at 12,169.88 down 88.32 points or 0.72% from Thursday's close of 12,066.8. For the week the Dow was up 103.08 points or 0.84% from last Friday's close of 12,130.45. Of the 30 Dow Jones component companies 4 gained and 26 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage wise was Travelers TRV $59.18 +0.13 0.22% 4,252,906 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was IBM $161.84 -1.64 1% 4,223,212 and percentage-wise was GE $20.41 -0.34 1.64% 48,945,983 NYSE.

As of the open of the market Friday, 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 14.89 up from Thursday's 14.65 (year ago it was 16.28); the P/E estimate is 12.67 unchanged from Thursday's 12.67 (year ago it was 13.21), and the dividend yield is 2.37 down from Thursday's 2.41 (last year it was 2.60). 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 1,608 down 11.67 from Thursday's closing numerator of 1,619.67. 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 Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $53.60 down $0.39 from Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $53.99. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $45.16 (JPM/AXP) down 0.93 from Thursday's median closing price of $45.16. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $92.19 -0.62 0.67% 2,718,519 NYSE and the highest volume was again Bank of America BAC $14.07 -0.20 1.4% 129,549,226 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 $1,167 ($161,967 - $160,800).

MarketWatch Friday 3/4/11 4:27 by Brendan Conway Gibson says U.S. stocks closed Friday's session with steep losses, hemmed in by a jump in oil prices, though a partial recovery late in the session lifted the indexes to slight weekly gains. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA 12,170, -88.32, -0.72%) ended down 88.32 points, or 0.7%, at 12,169.88, led by a 1.8% drop in General Electric Co. (GE 20.38, +0.01, +0.05%) shares. The S&P 500 (SPX 1,321, -9.82, -0.74%) fell 9.82 points, or 0.7%, to 1,321.15, with financials and industrials falling the most. The Nasdaq Composite (COMP 2,785, -14.07, -0.50%) ended down 14.07 points, or 0.5%, to 2,784.67. For the week, the Dow ended up 0.3%, the S&P 500 gained 0.1% and the Nasdaq Composite also edged 0.1% higher.

The following are excerpts from Friday morning's Blog.

A read of the print editions of Friday's Wall St. Journal, Financial Times, New York Times, USA Today, Atlanta Journal Constitution and 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 Thursday's stock prices and related data.

Dow Jones Industrial Average: The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Thursday at 12258.2 up 191.4 points or 0.07% from Wednesday's close of 12,066.8. For the year the Dow is up 5.88%. Of the 30 Dow Jones component companies 2 gained and 28 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage wise was CAT $104.25 +3.28 3.25% 7,400,354 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was HPQ $43.2 -0.04 0.09% 21,062,861 NYSE but AT&T was also down 4 cents.

WSJ pC1 "Dow rise is biggest in 3 months" by Jonathan Cheng says stock market bulls barreled through fears of $100 oil, seizing instead on encouraging employment & service sector numbers to push the market to its biggest one day gain in 3 months. Investors sold off gold for the first session in four, & Treasurys fell, lifting yields to a 2 week high. Industrials & financials led the charge, with Caterpillar & Bank of America each adding 3.2%.

Fin Times p22 "News Corp gains as UK approves move tot take over rest of BSkyB" by Micahel Stothard says shares in News Corp rose after it was given permission by the British gov to buy the rest of the British Sky Broadcasting Gruop while the wider markets bounced as global tensions eased. GE rose 2.1% one of the strongest gainers in the Dow, while 3M was 1.6% higher.

NYT pB8 "Wall st gains on upbeat jobs data" by Christine Hauser says the stock market climbed on Thurs as investors put aside the unrest in the Mid East & the spike in oil prices & focused on signs that the labor market might by starting to recover.

USA Today p4B "Stocks surge as jobless claims drop" by Bloomberg says stocks rallied Thurs, giving benchmark indexes their biggest advances in 3 months, as a decrease in jobless claims & growth in service industries bolstered confidence in the economic recovery.

Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,619.67 up 25.29 from Wednesday's closing numerator of 1,594.38. 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.

The average closing price (the closing numerator divided by 30) of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $53.99 up $0.84 from Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $53.15. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $45.16 (JPM/AXP) up 0.93 from Wednesday's median closing price of $44.23. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $92.81 +1.49 1.63% 3,050,274 NYSE and the highest volume was again Bank of America BAC $14.27 +0.44 3.18% 138,087,359 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 made $2,590 ($161,967).

MarketWatch Thursday 3/3/11 4:27 by Brendan Conway Gibson says U.S. stocks
charged higher, with blue-chip stocks up by the most in three months, as a strong reading on employment and a drop in the price of oil helped investors breathe a sigh of relief.

The Dow climbed 191.40 points, or 1.6%, to finish at 12258.20, its biggest gain since Dec. 1. Leading the blue chips were more than 3% gains in Caterpillar, Bank of America and Boeing. Industrial and financial companies led the Standard & Poor's 500 index up 22.53 points, or 1.7%, to close at 1330.97, as that measure also posted its best session since the beginning of December. The Nasdaq Composite added 50.67 points, or 1.8%, to 2798.74.

Stocks gained for the fourth time in five days after Wall Street received good news ahead of Friday's closely watched payrolls report. The Labor Department reported Thursday that the number of workers filing new unemployment claims unexpectedly fell to the lowest level since May 2008, raising hopes for a sustained improvement in U.S. employment. "The U.S. labor market is picking up decisively, and it isn't just coming from claims," Jim O'Sullivan, chief economist at MF Global, said. "It's likely just a matter of time before the pickup becomes more apparent in the payrolls data." A retreat in oil prices beneath $102 also assuaged nervous investors. Crude futures headed lower with reports that Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi had accepted a plan to mediate the conflict with rebel groups, though it was unclear how feasible the plan was. The market seemed more confident that developments in the Middle East and North Africa wouldn't crunch oil supplies, Joseph Greco, managing director at Meridian Equity Partners, said. "It gave people more ammo to get into equities," he said. Stocks also got a bump after the euro slid following European Central Bank President Jean-Claude Trichet's comment that the central bank could raise interest rates next month for the first time since the worst of the financial crisis in 2008. "The saying is, 'In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king,'" said Robert Phipps, a portfolio manager at Per Stirling Capital Management in Austin, Texas. The U.S. has served as the preferable "one-eyed man" among investors' options around the globe, he said, and stocks' gains Thursday reflected the view that the U.S. market could keep attracting investors. Tensions in the Middle East and North Africa continued to simmer despite investors' more sanguine view on Libya. In that violence-wracked country, a heavy military presence could be seen outside the important oil city of Zawiya on Thursday, where the government kept hold of the country's second-largest refinery. Earlier, Libyan war planes struck the rebel-held oil port in the eastern town of Marsa el-Brega, as pro-Gadhafi forces fought rebels for control of another strategic oil installation. Among stocks in focus, Amylin Pharmaceuticals tumbled more than 25% and Alkermes fell 11% after an investigational drug to treat Type 2 diabetes failed to meet primary endpoints in a 26-week study. Eli Lilly, a third co-developer, gained 0.3%. February retail sales showed strength, and high-end department stores continued to perform well. Shares in Saks gained 3.8%, and Nordstrom added 0.9% as sales topped Wall Street's expectations. Among other retailers, Zumiez said late Wednesday that its February same-store sales jumped 12.8%, comfortably outpacing the 4.2% consensus forecast and helping its shares rise 5.5%. Hot Topic posted a smaller-than-expected drop, and its shares rose 5.5%.
US Airways Group shares rose 4.9% after the company said traffic rose 4.5% in February from a year earlier amid an "exceptionally strong" demand environment.
News Corp. rose 1.9% after the U.K. government gave it the green light to buy the 61% of British Sky Broadcasting Group it doesn't already own, on the condition that it spins off the satellite broadcaster's news channel. News Corp. is the owner of The Wall Street Journal and Dow Jones. Budget retailer Big Lots reported fourth-quarter earnings of $1.46 a share, up from $1.27 a share in the year-earlier period and ahead of the $1.38 Wall Street forecast. Its shares added 3.6%.
