Post No. 1,046 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 May 24, 2011.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Wednesday at 12,290.14 down 279.65 or 2.22% from Tuesday's close of 12,569.79. Of the 30 Dow components all 30 declined. There were no gainers dollar-wise or percentage-wise was NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Caterpillar CAT $101.215 -4.585 4.33% 9,669,821 NYSE.

As of the open of the market Wednesday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of today's Wall St. Journal is 0.132129493. Wednesday's trailing P/E is 14.30 up from Tuesday's trailing P/E of 14.15 (year ago it was 14.57); Wednesday's P/E estimate is 12.54 unchanged from Tuesday's P/E estimate of 12.54 (year ago it was 12.62), and today's dividend yield is 2.37 dpwn from Tuesday's dividend yield of 2.40 (last year it was 2.76). 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.

Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,623.89 down 48.84 from Tuesday's closing numerator of 1,672.73. 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 $54.13 down $1.63 from Tuesday's average closing price of $55.76. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $45.89 (AXP/JPM) down 1.53 from Tuesday's median closing price of $47.42. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $91.44 -2.94 3.12% 3,413,724 NYSE and the highest volume was again Bank of America BAC $11.26 -0.49 4.17% 159,316,352 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 $4,884 ($167,273 - $162,389).

MarketWatch Wednesday 6/1/11 2:40 pm by Kate Gibson says US stocks fumbled, with banks slammed the most, as thoughts of a lower-yield environment took hold and dispiriting data had Wall Street downgrading hopes for the economy. Markets have been riding high thanks to the Fed's extensive quantitative easing since last fall. “What is most concerning here is the pace of the economic fall off, and the risk is growing that the downside isn’t over,” said John Brady, MF Global’s senior vice president of global interest rate products. Treasury prices rallied, pushing the benchmark 10-year note yield below 3% for the first time since early December, while the dollar softened and oil prices fell. “This lower yield environment is going to hurt the banks, which in order to heal balance sheets have been rolling loans off their books, and making new loans at lower yields. The net interest margin for financials is really going to start feeling under pressure,” said Brady. Financial powerhouses J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. and Bank of America Corp. were among the blue chips slammed, both off 3% or more. The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index declined 22.13 points, or 1.7%, to 1,323.07 with financials hardest hit among its 10 industry groups. The Nasdaq Composite Index shed 42.86 points, or 1.5%, to 2,792.44. For every stock rising, nearly four fell on the New York Stock Exchange, where volume topped 607 million as of 2:20 p.m. Eastern. American companies added 38,000 employees to their payrolls in the past month, according to data from ADP Employer Services. Economists had been expecting an increase of 175,000. The Institute for Supply Management reported that growth in the U.S. manufacturing sector slowed, with its closely watched gauge dropping to 53.5% in May from 60.4% in April. On Tuesday, the Dow industrials finished May with a loss of 1.9%, their first monthly drop in six months.
