Post No. 1,033 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, and a ranking of the Dow 30 components by market capitalization as of May 23, 2011 and Dow 30 components' SEC filings as of April 24, 2011.

A read of the print editions of Tuesday's Wall Street Journal, Financial Times, Investors' Business Daily, 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 Monday's stock prices and related data.

Dow Jones Industrial Average: The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Monday at 12,381.26 down 130.78 or 1.05% from Friday's close of 12,512.04. For the year the Dow is up 6.94%. Of the 30 Dow components 1 gained and 29 declined. The only and therefore biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was McDonald's MCD $82.5 +0.17 0.21% 6,503,697 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Caterpillar CAT $101.89 -2.44 2.34% 10,053,083 NYSE.

WSJ pC5 "Blue chips take Europe medicine" by Brendan Conway says stocks declined as investors' concerns over the fin'l health of European govs triggered a flight to safer assets. Caterpillar led blue chips lower as it dropped $2.44 after the Justice Dept. gave it the go ahead for its largest acquisition ever to buy Bucyrus for $7.6 bil. McDonald's is charted under Good News as the only Dow firm to finish up.

Fin Times p24 "Campbell in the soup after sales & margin figures disappoint" by Michael Stothard says Campbell lost ground after reporting disappointing sales while the largest US indices tumbled below their 50 day moving averages as slack global growth figures created fresh doubts over earnings estimates for the next quarter. Caterpillar, the world's biggest maker of earthmoving equipment by rev, fell 2.3%.

Inv. Bus. Daily pA1 "Global woes sink stocks as Nasdaq tumbles 1.6%" by Vincent Mao says global economic worries sent stocks reeling Mon, deepening the market's correction.

NYT pB6 "US shares tumble on worries over European debt" by Christine Hauser says sovereign debt concerns & the prospects for slower growth in Europe & Asia took their toll on global markets Mon, with stocks on Wall St spiraling more than 1% lower on all 3 major indexes.

USA Today p4B "US stocks can't avoid Europe doldrums as markets slump" by Bloomberg says stocks retreated Mon, giving the S&P 500 its biggest drop in 2 months, as commodities slumped amid concern that Europe's debt crisis is worsening & the global economic recovery is losing momentum. Boeing dipped $1.24 as its plan to ship the first of its newest jumbo jets by mid '11 as part of the "year of the 747" risks another delay that would add to the 18 month setback for the plane. It may miss its delivery target by 8 weeks due to minor issues.

As of the open of the market Tuesday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of today's Wall St. Journal is 0.132129493. Tuesday's trailing P/E is 14.09 down from Monday's trailing P/E of 14.23 (year ago it was 14.64); today's P/E estimate is 12.62 unchanged from Monday's P/E estimate of 12.62 (year ago it was 12.45), and today's dividend yield is 2.40 up from Monday's dividend yield of 2.38 (last year it was 2.7462). The Dow's all-time high was 14,164.53 on Oct6 9, 2007. The 12 year low close for the Dow was on March 9, 2009 when it fell to 6,547.05.

Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,635.92 down 17.29 from Friday's closing numerator of 1,653.21. 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 7.57 change in the average.

The average closing price (the closing numerator divided by 30) of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $54.53 down 0.58 from Friday's average closing price of $55.11. The median closing price of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $46.28 (AXP/JPM) down 1.12 from Friday's median closing price of $47.16. The lowest volume was Travelers TRV $61.44 -0.81 1.3% 2,414,950 NYSE and the highest volume was again Bank of America BAC $11.42 -0.16 1.38% 121,186,042 NYSE.

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 lost $1,729 ($165,321 -$163,592).

MarketWatch Monday 5/23/11 4:12 pm by Laura Mandaro says US stocks closed with broad losses Monday, sending the Dow Jones Industrial Average to its lowest close in more than a month, as investors focused on a mounting fiscal crisis in Italy, Greece and Spain. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 130.78 points, or 1.1%, to 12,381.26, with a 2.3% drop in Caterpillar Inc. shares leading declines in all but one of its components. The S&P 500 fell 15.9 points, or 1.2%, to 1,317.37. A 1.5% drop in the tech sub-sector led declines in all 10 industry groups. The Nasdaq Composite fell 44.42 points, or 1.6%, to 2,758.90.
