Post No. 1,003 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 April 24, 2011 and Dow 30 components' SEC filings as of April 24, 2011.

A read of the print editions of Thursday's Wall Street Journal, Financial Times, Investor's Business Daily's, USA Today, New York Times, 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 12,723.58 down 83.93 or 0.60% from Tuesday's close of 12,807.51. Of the 30 Dow components 8 gained and 22 declined. For the year the Dow is up 9.90%. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Intel INTC $23.5 +0.4512 1.96% 137,089,424 NASDAQ-GS. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Caterpillar CAT $110.77 -2.50 2.21% 8,969,701 NYSE.

WSJ pC5 "Blue chips slip 83.93 on data, earnings" by Kristina Peterson says stocks retreated under pressure from disappointing economic data, weaker commodity earnings & lackluster earnings report.

NYT pB7 "Lacklustre earnings daunt investors" by Bloomberg says stocks fell Wed with commodity producers driving a 3rd straight loss for the S&P 500, as lower than estimated reports on service industries & job growth damped optimism in the economy. Caterpillar & GE, among firms most tied to the economy, fell at least 1.7% to lead declines in the Dow.

Inv. Bus Daily pA1 "Stocks fall, tip market to correction" by Paul Whitfield says bears tightened their grip on the market Wed as the indexes fell for a 3rd day in a row & leaders were down. Wednesday's action was down in rising volume and the current outlook is the market is in a correction.

Fin Times p26 "Energy leads further retreat amid poor figures & earnings reports" by Michael Stothard says US indices retreated further from multi-year highs achieved last week after disappointing economic data, softer commodity prices & a number of lacklustre earnings report. Exxon was down by 0.9% as oil prices fell back.

USA Today p4B "April jobs report drags stocks lower" by Matthew Craft says serious doubts about the health of the job market & the pace of the economic recovery put markets on edge Wed. Stocks fell after ADP said firms added 179,000 jobs in April, far fewer than economists had expected which raised worries about what the gov's monthly jobs report for April will show on Fri.

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 14.44 down from Wednesday's trailing P/E of 14.53 (year ago it was 16.01); the P/E estimate is 12.91 unchanged from Wednesday's P/E estimate of 12.91 (year ago it was 13.95), and the dividend yield is 2.32 up from Wednesday's dividend yield of 2.30 (last year it was 2.52). 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.

Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,681.16 down 11.09 from Tuesday's closing numerator of 1,692.25. 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 $56.04 down 0.37 from Tuesday's average closing price of $56.41. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $47.60 (AXP/JPM) down 0.31 from Tuesday's median closing price of $47.91. The lowest volume was Travelers TRV $63.54 -0.51 0.8% 3,117,106 NYSE and the highest volume was again Bank of America BAC $12.49 -0.11 0.87% 99,333,740 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 $1,109 ($169,232 - $168,116).

MarketWatch Wednesday 5/4/11 5:14 pm by ate Gibson says U.S. stocks and commodities slid sharply Wednesday as disappointing data on the services sector and jobs overshadowed enthusiasm on corporate deal-making. “I don’t think it’s the start of a bear market, but the chances of a near-term correction have risen,” said Nick Raich, director of research at Key Private Bank. “Earnings season started out very strong, only one in 10 were missing estimates, now it’s nearly one in four. In the last five days, 22% to 23% have missed, and a lot of them blame rising commodity prices,” Raich added. After a 134-point drop, the Dow Jones Industrial Average moderated its decline to end off 83.93 points, or 0.7%, at 12,723.58, with 22 of its 30 components losing ground. The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index shed 9.30 points, or 0.7%, to 1,347.32, with materials the worst-performing of its 10 industry groups. It was the third straight day of losses. Gold futures lost $25.10, or 1.6%, to end at $1,515.30 an ounce following a Wall Street Journal report that Soros Fund Management LLC has trimmed its gold and silver holdings. Silver futures tumbled $3.20, or 7.5%, to $39.39 an ounce. Read more about Soros’s holdings and read more on gold and silver futures. As gold and silver tank, assets besides commodities can hedge against inflation, according to David Goerz of HighMark Capital Management, who recommends high-quality stocks with a dividend yield, as well as small caps. Benchmark crude for June delivery declined $1.81 to end at $109.24 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The Nasdaq Composite Index lost 13.39 points, or 0.5%, to 2,828.23. The Institute for Supply Management said its services index declined to 52.8 last month from 57.3 in March, missing analysts’ expectations. “Generally speaking, data such as this corroborate our more cautious stance entering the year and should further push to the sidelines those expecting 4% growth or more this year,” said Dan Greenhaus, chief economic strategist at Miller Tabak & Co. The ISM report was the day’s second disappointment for economic data. The first was a 179,000 increase in private-sector payrolls estimated by Automated Data Processing Inc. Economists were expecting a gain closer to 200,000. Decliners outpaced gainers more than 2 to 1 on the New York Stock Exchange, where 1.1 billion shares traded. Stocks fall sharply on ADP, ISM dataStocks fell sharply Wednesday, pressured by disappointing economic data, weaker commodity prices and a lackluster crop of earnings reports. Several individual stocks rallied on deal news. ConAgra Foods Inc. offered to buy food maker Ralcorp Holdings Inc. for about $4.9 billion, a sweetened offer Ralcorp still rejected. Ralcorp shares gained 4.9%. Applied Materials Inc. said it planned to buy Varian Semiconductor Equipment Associates Inc. for $4.9 billion. Varian shares surged 51%. Another maker of chip gear, Novellus Systems , rallied 6.5%. “The market has a couple of mergers, which would typically bode well, but today is contradictory,” said Stephen Carl, head equity trader at the Williams Group.
