Post No. 1,146 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 2, 2011.

A read of the print editions of Thursday's Wall St. Journal, Financial Times, 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 Wednesday's stock prices and related data.

Dow Jones Industrial AverageThe Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Wednesday at 11,896.44 up 29.82 or 0.25% from Tuesday's close of 11,8666.62. For the year the Dow is up 2.75%. Of the 30 Dow components 10 gained and 20 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Coke KO $68.4 +1.33 1.98% 14,015,254 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was NYSE and percentage-wise was Caterpillar CAT $96.28 -0.90 0.93% 16,885,057 NYSE.

WSJ pC7 Dow Theory confirms it's an official swoon" by Steve Russolillo says the century old Dow Theory says both the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the Dow Jones Transportation Average need to move in tandem to confirm a trend and on Tues the Dow Theory officially gave a sell signal as Dow industrials and Dow transports broke through June lows, with the Dow transportation index hitting a '11 low. The symbiotic relationship between the two indexes is a clear sign to Dow theorists that the economic message and the market outlook are moving in tandem. The idea is that making goods is one leg of the industrial economy and moving those goods around is the second leg, so their trends should be in sync.

WSJ pC7 "Blue chips climb out of deep rut" by Jon Cheng says blue chip stocks reversed a steep morning drop to snap an 8 day losing streak. Tech stocks powered the rebound as Intel rose 30 cents.

Fin Times p24 "Late session rally in tech stocks helps to power advance" by Telis Demos says US equities managed to steer clear of an 8th straight decline as a late session rally in tech shares powered the end of the streak.

NYT pB8 "Shares waver, then eke out gains to end a losing streak" by hCris Hauser says after 7 days of losing ground, the stock market made some back on Wed.

USA Today p4B "Markets reverse losses on Fed stimulus speculation" by Bloomberg says stocks rebounded from sharp losses & closed slightly higher Wed amid speculation the Fed Res may consider another stimulus program to prevent a recession. Coke added $1.33 & GE climbed 26 cents leading the Dow's gains.

As of the open of the market Thursday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of Tuesday's Wall St. Journal is 0.132129493. Thursday's trailing P/E ratio is 13.34 up from Wednesday's trailing P/E ratio of 13.30 (year ago it was 14.48); today's P/E estimate is 12.57 unchanged from yesterday's P/E estimate of 12.57 (year ago it was 12.70), and Thursday's dividend yield is 2.55 unchanged from Wednesday's dividend yield of 2.55 (last year it was 2.62). 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 1,571.86 up 3.93 from Tuesday's closing numerator of 1,567.93. 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 Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $52.40 up 0.14 from Tuesday's average closing price of $52.26. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $44.43 (AXP/JPM) up 0.25 from Tuesday's median closing price of $44.18. The lowest volume was Travelers TRV $54.22 +0.06 0.11% 4,999,564 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $9.54 +0.05 0.53% 173,809,217 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 made $393 ($157,186 - $156,793).

MarketWatch Wednesday 8/3/11 4:11 pm by Laura Mandauro says U.S. stocks closed higher Wednesday, clawing back from deep session lows and ending a losing streak that would have marked the Dow average's worst since the late 1970s. The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 29.82 points, or 0.3%, to 11,896.44, its first advance in nine sessions. The S&P 500 rose 6.29 points, or 0.5%, to 1,260.34, its first rise in eight sessions. The Nasdaq Composite rose 23.83 points, or 0.9%, to 2,693.07. Some support from earnings and bargain hunters helped offset a bleak round of economic data. All three indexes are now slightly higher for the year; the Nasdaq had lost yearly advances intraday.
