Post No. 1,279 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 September 23, 2011.

For the week the Dow is up 164.3 points or 1.41% from last Friday's close of 11,644.49. Of the 30 Dow components 28 gained and 2 declined.

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 made $3,528 ($156,028 - $152,500).

MarketWatch Friday 10/21/11 4:14 pm by Laura Mandaro says US stocks surged into the close of trading Friday as optimism over an upcoming Europe leaders meeting and a break through a technical level on the S&P 500 lured in buyers.

The blue-chip index rose 1.4% for the week, its fourth week of gains, which is the longest weekly winning streak since January. The S&P 500 added 22.86 points, or 1.9%, to 1,238.25.

The following are excerpts from Friday morning's Blog.

A read of the print editions of Friday's The Wall St. Journal, Investors News Daily, USA Today, The New York Times & Miami Hearld 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 Thursday's stock prices and related data.

Dow Jones Industrial AverageThe Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Thursday at 11,541.78 up 37.16 or 0.32% from Wednesday's close of 11,504.62. For the year the Dow is down 0.3%. Of the 30 Dow components 21 gained and 9 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Chevron CVX $103.39 +1.15 1.12% 8,705,824 NYSE and percentage-wise was JPMorgan JPM $33.13 +0.88 2.73% 41,644,365 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Intel INTC $23.61 -0.63 2.6% 88,610,892 NASDAQ-GS and percentage-wise was Boeing BA $62.49 -0.62 0.98% 6,272,653 NYSE.

WSJ pC4 "Stocks swing, butend on high" by Brendan Conway says stocks rose zigzagging from losses to gains throughout the session, after a series of conflicting headlines on European sovereign debt. Fin'l stocks led advancers as JPMorgan gained 88 cents. American express had a 6 cents rise in its stock as its 3Q earnings exceeded expectations & showed record levels of spending by card holders but FBR Capital analysts cut '12 earnings forecast.

NYT pB6 "Wall St ends mixed on uncertainty over Europe" by Reuters says stocks closed flat as investors struggling with uncertainty surrounding the coming European summit meeting on the debt crisis, sought direction from corp earnings.

USA Today p4B "Talk of $1.3 trillion Euroopean rescue plan lifts US markets" by Bloomberg says US stocks & the euro rose Thurs recovering from earlier losses, as European govs discussed eploying $1.3 trillion in funds to game the sovereign debt crisis & France & Germany asked officials to agree on crisis plans by Oct. 26.

Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,525 up 4.90 from Wednesday's closing numerator of 1,520.10. 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 Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $50.83 up $0.16 from Wednesday's average closing price of $50.67. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $40.62 (DD/VZ)up 0.19 from Wednesday's median closing price of 40.43. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $78.68 +0.98 1.26% 4,084,566 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $6.47 +0.07 1.09% 254,499,245 NYSE.

If Thursday 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 $490 ($152,500 - $152,967).

MarketWatch Thursday 10/20/11 5:06 pm by Wallace Witkowski & Laura Mandaro says US stocks closed an uneven day of trading with modest gains, finding some support in a commitment by Germany and France to produce a comprehensive plan to bolster the region’s banks and expand a sovereign rescue fund. The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed up 37.16 points, or 0.3%, at 11,541.78. J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. led gainers, rising 2.7%. Intel Corp. / was off the most, with a 2.6% slide. Stocks Thursday were weighed by early news reports that the EU summit — seen as a crucial step in coming up with new measures to prevent one or more sovereign debt defaults in Europe — could be postponed. But they tacked higher after Germany and France issued a joint statement that they would meet Saturday night ahead of the EU summit on Sunday, with the aim of providing a “comprehensive and ambitious response to the current crisis in the euro area,” including a revamped bailout fund and plans to strengthen European bank capital. They’ll follow that meeting with another one no later than Wednesday at which they will finalize their agreement, according to the statement. Read more on what's expected at EU summit. “Overshadowing it all is Europe,” said Doug Roberts, chief investment officer for Channel Capital Research. “People are really concerned about an 11th hour resolution” for Europe, he said. Extending the week’s choppy trading, stocks spent most of Thursday’s session bouncing between gains and losses, pushing the Dow average across zero 45 times. The index has closed in a different direction from its prior session for 10 straight sessions, the longest such streak since May 2009, when stocks were climbing off bear market lows hit in March of that year. Stocks had gained in morning trading after a regional October index of manufacturing showed its first positive reading in three months.
The Philadelphia Federal Reserve said its index of manufacturing activity rebounded to 8.7 in October from negative 17.5 in September, the first positive reading in three months, and topping views for a a negative 10 reading. U.S. economic data and stronger earnings reports have vied for investors’ attention with deep uncertainty about Europe, where large deficits in some countries have made at least one sovereign bond default likely. James Paulsen, chief investment strategist at Wells Capital Management, said the market’s early drop reflected anxiety leading into the weekend meeting, and that U.S. data is consistently showing the economy is not heading toward a double-dip recession. “If we weren’t having good numbers, we’d be at 1,100 [on the S&P 500 Index] or worse,” Paulsen said. The Standard & Poor’s 500 ended up 5.51 points, or 0.5%, at 1,215.39, led by a 1.8% gain in financials as regional banks led by Fifth Third Bancorp. rallied.
Tech stocks fell the most on the index, weighed by a 5.4% drop in Dell Inc. and declines in chip makers on worries that Thai floods would disrupt some electronic parts production, perhaps for more than a quarter. The Nasdaq Composite lost 5.42 points, or 0.2%, to close at 2,598.62. Advancers surpassed decliners by 3 to 2 on the New York Stock Exchange, where 958 million shares traded hands. Headlines from Europe largely overshadowed the day’s U.S. economic reports. The Conference Board’s index of leading indicators rose 0.2% in September, in line with views. And the National Association of Realtors said existing home sales fell 3% in September, to a seasonally adjusted annually rate of 4.91 million. Economists had expected 4.9 million. Ahead of the opening bell, the Labor Department said first-time claims for unemployment benefits slipped to 403,000 last week from 409,000 two weeks ago. Economists had expected a drop to 400,000. Many analysts look for a sustained fall below 400,000 as a sign labor markets are improving.
