Post No. 1,211 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 Monday at 11,061.12 up 68.99 or 0.63% from Friday's close of 10,992.13. Of the 30 Dow components 21 gained and 9 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was 3M MMM $78.22 +1.57 2.05% 5,848,828 NYSE and percentage-wise was Intel INTC $20.28 +0.58 2.94% 53,322,607 NASDAQ-GS. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was DuPont DD $44.28 -0.99 2.19% 14,747,999 NYSE.

As of the open of the market Monday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of Monday's Wall St. Journal is 0.132129493. Mon's trailing P/E ratio is 12.26 down from Fri's trailing P/E ratio of 12.60 (year ago it was 14.12); Mon's P/E estimate is 11.50 down from Fri's P/E estimate of 11.52 (year ago it was 12.53), and Mon's dividend yield is 2.79 up from Fri's dividend yield of 2.71 (last year it was 2.69). 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.

Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,461.50 up 9.12 from Friday's closing numerator of 1,452.38. 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 $48.72 up 0.31 from Friday's average closing price of $48.41. The median closing price of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $39.94 (AXP/JPM) up $0.26 from Friday's median closing price of $39.68. The lowest volume was Travelers TRV $48.96 +0.82 1.7% 4,924,544 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC 7.05 +0.07 1% 286,856,001 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 made $912 ($146,150 - $145,238).

MarketWatch Monday 9/12/11 5:50 pm by Kate Gibson & Laura Mandaro says U.S. stock on Monday ended higher for the first day in three, erasing losses in a late-session turnaround as indexes tested some key support levels and as a report said China was considering buying Italian bonds. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA closed up 68.99 points, or 0.6%, to 11,061.12, led by a 2.9% gain in Intel Corp. Twenty-two of 30 Dow components rose. The blue-chip index had fallen more than 167 points, and traded lower for much of the trading session, as the latest barrage of headlines about Europe suggested it was more likely one or more euro-zone members would default on its debt. But the indexes came off their lows after the Financial Times reported Italy was in talks with China’s sovereign-wealth fund over a sale of Italian bonds. “[Italians] would have a buyer they know they can turn to,” said Mark Luschini, chief investment strategist at Janney Montgomery Scott LLC. Details of the deal were lacking, but that didn’t stop markets from interpreting the report as a sign Italy, a much larger economy than the countries that have been bailed out so far, might avoid Greece’s destiny. “The market was looking for anything positive to come out of the European debt crisis,” added Luschini. The day’s gains showed stock indexes bouncing off some recent low points. The S&P 500 Index SPX +0.70% ended up 8.04 points, or 0.7%, at 1,162.27, led by tech and financial stocks, after falling as low as 1,136.07. The day’s gain kept the index of large-cap U.S. stocks above lows touched last week.“They made a run for technical support at 1,140 to 1,141; we’ll see if it holds,” said Robert Pavlik, chief market strategist at Banyan Partners LLC. The Nasdaq Composite Index ended up 27.10 points, or 1.1%, at 2,495.09.
Providing some support to tech stocks, chip manufacturer Broadcom Corp. said it would pay $50 a share for NetLogic Microsystems Inc. to extend its product line with new processors. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index gained 3%.

The following are excerpts from Monday morning's Blog.

A read of Monday's print editions of each of Barron's, Wall St. Journal, Financial Times, New York Times & San Francisco Chronicle 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 Friday's stock prices and related data.

Dow Jones Industrial AverageThe Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Friday at 10,992.13 down 303.68 or 2.69% from Thursday's close of 11,295.81. For the week the Dow was down 248.13 points or 2.21% from last Friday's close of 11,240.26. For the year the Dow is down 2.7%. Of the 30 Dow components all 30 declined. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was IBM $161.37 -3.88 2.35% 6,740,810 NYSE and percentage-wise was Hewlett-Packard HPQ $22.65 -1.22 5.11% 36,898,155 NYSE.

As of the open of the market Monday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of Monday's Wall St. Journal is 0.132129493. Mon's trailing P/E ratio is 12.26 down from Fri's trailing P/E ratio of 12.60 (year ago it was 14.12); Mon's P/E estimate is 11.50 down from Fri's P/E estimate of 11.52 (year ago it was 12.53), and Mon's dividend yield is 2.79 up from Fri's dividend yield of 2.71 (last year it was 2.69). 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.

Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,452.38 down 40.13 from Thursday's closing numerator of 1,492.51. 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 Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $48.41 down 1.34 from Thursday's average closing price of $49.75. The median closing price of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $39.68 (AXP/JPM) down $1.84 from Thursday's median closing price of $41.52. The lowest volume was Travelers TRV $48.14 -1.20 2.43% 4,556,468 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $6.98 -0.22 3.06% 255,478,227 NYSE.

If Friday 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 $4,013 ($149,251 - $145,238).

MarketWatch Friday 9/9/11 4:34 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stock indexes dove Friday on heightened worry about Greece’s debt crisis, pushing the dollar to a six-month high against the euro and 10-year yields to a record low. The distress came along with news that the European Central Bank’s top economist had quit and that Germany was reportedly preparing to safeguard its banks against a possible Greek default. European stocks plumb depths amid concerns over the sovereign-debt crisis and global growth, fund managers are tempted by rock-bottom stock prices but frightened that worst isn't yet to come. “The perception is the ECB is not on the same page, that it doesn’t have a clear vision of how to stimulate the economy,” said Brad Sorensen, director of market and sector analysis at Charles Schwab Corp. Tallying its sixth straight triple-digit move, and its worst day in more than three weeks, The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 303.68 points, or 2.7%, to 10,992.13, down 2.2% from the week-ago close. All of the blue chips’ 30 components lost ground, including McDonald Corp.’s off 4%, after the world’s biggest burger chain reported a less-than-anticipated increase in global sales for August. Also weighing on the Dow, Bank of America Corp. shares shed 3.1% on a Wall Street Journal report that executives have discussed cutting about 40,000 jobs in an initial restructuring wave. The “disappointing results from McDonald’s didn’t help matters, and more jobs cuts from Bank of America — add those things up and you get some pressure,” Sorensen said. Down 1.7% for the week, the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index declined 31.67 points, or 2.7%, to 1,150.09, with energy and natural-resource firms hardest hit among its 10 industry groups. The Nasdaq Composite Index shed 61.15 points, or 2.4%, to 2,467.99. For every stock rising more than six declined on the New York Stock Exchange, with more than 1.2 billion traded; composite volume neared 4.5 billion. As equities were hammered the U.S. dollar rose to a six-month high against the euro, while the 10-year Treasury yield used in determining rates on consumer loans including mortgages fell to a record. The ECB said Juergen Stark, a proponent of higher interest rates, would step down from its executive board by the end of the year, signaling a possible dispute among policy makers over how to combat the regional debt crisis. Stark’s move came as financial leaders from the globe’s most developed nations met in France to devise a strategy to bolster the world economy. Bank of America executives have discussed eliminating roughly 40,000 positions during a wave of restructuring — known as "Project New BAC" — that CEO Brian Moynihan is expected to discuss Monday, people familiar with the plans say. Stocks’ losses intensified after Bloomberg News reported German officials were readying a plan to recapitalize German banks should their Greek holdings overcome balance sheets.
“Some in Europe are finally realizing that the money being funneled to Greece to buy time from the inevitable would be better put to use to recapitalize banks to insulate them from sovereign haircuts,” Peter Boockvar, equity strategist at Milller Tabak, wrote in an email. Sorensen at Charles Schwab said Europe is the dominant story for Wall Street and behind the ongoing volatility. “We have fiscal issues here, but nobody is seriously considering that the United States is going to default or break apart,” said Sorensen in contrasting Europe to domestic concerns. Stock-index futures had edged lower ahead of the ECB-related news as investors worried whether political gridlock in Washington would continue in the wake of President Barack Obama’s proposal unveiled Thursday night to create jobs and help lift the U.S. economy. “Once it gets into Congress, what comes out the other end is another thing. The process is not something the market is all that confident in,” said Sorensen.
