Post No. 1,191 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 and Dow 30 components' SEC filings in each case as of August 29, 2011.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Tuesday at 11,559.95 up 20.7 or 0.18% from Monday's close of 11,539.25. Of the 30 Dow components 12 gained, Pfizer was unchanged and 17 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Boeing BA $66.03 +1.43 2.21% 6,979,118 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was JPMorgan JPM $37.06 -0.58 1.54% 28,794,305 NYSE.

As of the open of the market Tuesday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of Tuesday's Wall St. Journal is 0.132129493. Tuesday's trailing P/E ratio is 12.87 up from Monday's trailing P/E ratio of 12.59 (year ago it was 12.02); Tues's P/E estimate is 11.23 unchanged from Monday's P/E estimate of 11.23 (year ago it was 12.02), and Tuesday's dividend yield is 2.65 down from Monday's dividend yield of 2.71 (last year it was 2.81). 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.

Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,527.41 up 2.54 from Monday's closing numerator of 1,524.67. 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 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 Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $50.91 up $0.09 from Monday's average closing price of $50.82. The median closing price of Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $42.86 (AXP/JPM) down $0.24 from Monday's median closing price of $43.10. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $82.07 -0.03 0.04% 3,726,343 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $8.12 -0.27 3.22% 295,615,555 NYSE.

If Tuesday 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 $274 ($152,741 - $152,467).

MarketWatch Tuesday 8/30/11 4:12 pm by Laura Mandaro says U.S. stocks closed with mild gains Tuesday, giving up much of their advance in the final minutes of trading, but recovering from a loss early in the session that intensified following a report on consumer confidence. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 20.7 points, or 0.2%, to 11,559.95. The average is still down for the year, though it briefly tipped higher during the session. The S&P 500 added 2.84 points, or 0.2%, to 1,212.92, led by the telecoms and natural-resource sectors. The Nasdaq Composite ended up 14 points, or 0.6%, to 2,576.11. Stocks reversed higher in afternoon trading following the release of minutes from the Federal Reserve's last policy statement.

The following are excerpts from Tuesday morning's Blog.

A read of the print editions of Tuesday's Barron'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 Monday's stock prices and related data.

Dow Jones Industrial AverageThe Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Monday at 11,539.25 up 254.71 or 2.26% from Friday's close of 11,284.54. Of the 30 Dow components 29 gained and only Home Depot declined. For the year the Dow is down 0.33%. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was IBM $172.62 +3.48 2.06% 5,169,470NYSE and percentage-wise was Bank of America BAC $8.39 +0.63 8.12% 359,184,931 NYSE. The only and therefore biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Home Depot HD $33.99 -0.01 0.03% 14,637,394 NYSE.

Fin Times p18 "S&P 500 pushes past 1,200 mark amid consumer spending cheer" by Ajay Makan says the S&P 500 closed above 1,200 for the 1st time in 2 weeks as traders seized on better than expected consumer spending figures to propel a broad market rally. Bank of America was up 8.1% after it announced the sale of its 10% stake in China Construction bank.

WSJ pC1 "Dow, and trades, answer bell" by Mat Phillips says Hurricane Irene cancelled many trains but fin'l markets remained open for business as the NYSE opened as usual at 9:30 am. The NYSe hasn't had a waetehr related closure or delay since a Jan '96 snowstorm.

NYT pB5 "US market indexes rise sharply in a broad Wall St rally" by Reuters says Wall St surged in a broad rally on Mon as a merger between big Greek banks provided rare encouraging news from debt stricken Europe, while a rebound in US consumer spending calmed fears of a new recession.

USA Today p6B "Economic optimism, muted damage from Irene lift stocks" by Bloomberg says stocks rose Mon, extending the first weekly gain since July for the S&P 500 index, amid optimism the economy will recover & after Hurricane Irene failed to shut fin'l markets. Insurers rose as Hurricane Irene's estimated cost fell to $2.6 bil. Travelers rose $2.45.

Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,524.67 up 33.65 from Friday's closing numerator of 1,491.02. 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 Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $50.82 up $1.12 from Friday's average closing price of $49.70. The median closing price of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $43.10 (AXP/JPM) up $0.75 from Friday's median closing price of $42.35. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $82.1 +2.09 2.61% 3,405,080 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $8.39 +0.63 8.12% 359,184,931NYSE.

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 made $3,365 ($152,467 - $149,102).

MarketWatch Monday 8/29/11 4:12 pm by Laura Mandaro says U.S. stocks closed near their highs of the day Monday, putting the Dow Jones Industrial Average within close reach of breakeven for the year, on stronger consumer spending data and optimism from Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke's speech Friday. The Dow average gained 254.71 points, or 2.3%, to 11,539.25, led by an 8.1% surge in Bank of America Corp. shares. For the year, the Dow is 0.3% lower. The S&P 500 added 33.28 points, or 2.8%, to 1,210.08, its first close above 1,200 since Aug. 15. Financials led gains, rallying 4.2%.
