Post No. 1,289 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.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Thursday at 12,208.55 up 339.51 or 2.86% from Wednesday's close of 11,869.04. Of the 30 Dow components all gained and 0 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Caterpillar CAT
$96.33 +4.76 5.2% 13,760,315 NYSE and percentage-wise was Bank of America BAC $7.22 +0.63 9.56%397,798,714 NYSE.

As of the open of the market Thursday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of Thursday's Wall St. Journal is 0.132129493. Thursday's trailing P/E ratio is 13.16 up from Wednesday's trailing P/E ratio of 13.01 (year ago it was 14.11); Thursday's P/E estimate is 11.75 unchanged from Wednesday's P/E estimate of 11.75 (year ago it was 13.25), and today's dividend yield is 2.61 down from Wednesday's dividend yield of 2.65 (last year it was 2.53). 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.

Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,613.11 up 44.86 from Wednesday's closing numerator of 1,568.25. 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 $53.77 up 1.50 from Wednesday's average closing price of $52.27. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $43.20 (DD/VZ) up 1.74 from Wednesday's median closing price of 41.46. The lowest volume was Travelers TRV $59.4 +1.90 3.3% 4,911,465 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $7.22 +0.63 9.56% 397,798,714 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 $4,486 ($161,311 - $156,825).

MarketWatch Thursday 10/27/11 4:13 pm by Laura Mandaro says US stocks rallied about 3% Thursday as investors bid up banks, resource and tech stocks after European leaders reached a deal to leverage their bailout fund, pump more money into banks and restructure Greece's debt. The first estimate of U.S. economic growth for the third quarter also helped. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 339.51 points, or 2.9%, to 12,208.55, its first close above 12,000 since Aug. 1 and the highest since July 28. The S&P 500 gained 42.59 points, or 3.4%, to 1,284.59. The Nasdaq Composite rose 87.96 points, or 3.3%, to 2,738.63. For the nearly ended month, the major indexes have advanced more than 11%.

The following are excerpts from Thursday morning's Blog.

A read of the print editions of Thursday's The 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 Wednesday's stock prices and related data.

Dow Jones Industrial AverageThe Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Wednesday at 11,869.04 up 162.42 or 1.39% from Tuesday's close of 11,706.62. Forthe year the Dow is up 2.5%. Of the 30 Dow components 27 gained and 3 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Boeing BA $66.56 +2.84 4.46% 12,687,856 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Microsoft MSFT $26.59 -0.22 0.82% 62,980,171 NASDAQ-GS.

WSJ pC5 "Europe boosts stocks" by Jonathan Cheng says stocks finished a rocky day with strong gains, as investors grew optimistic about European leaders' ability to contain the region's debt crisis, taking hope from the possibility of Chinese investment in the euro zone bailout fund. Amid the flurry of headlines, investors remained skeptical about a quick resolution to the Continent's debt crisis. Boeing is charted under Good News saying it raised its full year earnings estimate.

Fin Times p22 "Ford shares slump despite posting strong net income of $1.6 bil" by Ajay Makan says Ford slumped 4.5% despite its 2nd biggest ever quarter. The S&P ended the day up 1.1% after a late spurt fueled by reports that French Pres will talk to his Chinese counterpart today about contributions to the eurozone crisis fund. The Dow was boosted by a good day for Boeing which said it wold take a profit from the first 1,100 sales of its new 787 Dreamliner. Fears that the expensive 787 wold take some time to reach profitability had weighed on the stock.

NYT pB8 "Shares rise as Europe meets on debt crisis" by Christine Hauser says stocks rose on Wed as firms reported solid earnings & investors cautiously watched the results from a summit meeting in Europe to address the sovereign debt crisis.

USA Today p4B "Stocks bounce back on hope european nations are near deal" by Bloomberg says stocks rose Wed following the biggest decline in 3 weeks by the S&P, as Europe reached an agreement on plans to recapitalize banks & US economic reports surpassed forecasts.

Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,568.25 up 21.47 from Tuesday's closing numerator of 1,546.78. 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 $52.27 up 0.70 from Tuesday's average closing price of $51.56. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $41.46 (DD/VZ) up 0.91 from Tuesday's median closing price of 40.57. The lowest volume was Travelers TRV
$57.5 +1.16 2.06% 4,722,150 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $6.59 +0.13 2.01% 207,682,711 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 $2,147 ($156,825 - $154,678).

MarketWatch Wednesday 10/26/11 5:21 pm by Kate Gibson says US stocks struck solid gains Wednesday, recouping much of the prior day’s drop, after Europe reached an agreement in principle on a bank-recapitalization plan and on better-than-forecast earnings from corporations including Boeing Co.
“The market is up today because our expectation bar had been set significantly low for today’s European summit, so we were expecting a numberless communiqué, so with that being the base case, we’ve shifted our focus to better-than-expected earnings across the board,” said Art Hogan, equity strategist at Lazard Capital Markets. “We fully believe the euro zone does not have a death wish and will come up with a constructive plan by next week,” when the G-20 group of major industrialized and developed economies meets, Hogan added. EU leaders said in a joint statement they had come to terms on a broad strategy at a summit in Brussels, but offered no figure for bank recapitalization requirements. After rising as much as 184.6 points, the Dow Jones Industrial Average finished at 11,869.04, up 162.42, or 1.4%, with all but three of its 30 components gaining. Leading blue-chip gains, Boeing shares rose 4.5% after the aerospace giant reported a larger profit for its latest quarter than Wall Street anticipated and hiked its outlook for 2011 earnings. Off the Dow, Corning rose 3% after the specialty-glass maker tallied better third-quarter results than expected. The S&P 500 Index added 12.95 points, or 1.1%, to 1,242, with energy and finance companies gaining the most and consumer-discretionary firms the only laggard among its 10 sectors. The Nasdaq Composite Index added 12.25 points, or 0.5%, at 2,650.67. Shares of Amazon.com Inc. slumped 13% after the online mega retailer reported lower-than-expected earnings for the third quarter and gave a disappointing forecast for the current period. For every stock that fell, four gained on the New York Stock Exchange, where 1.1 billion shares traded; composite volume neared 4.8 billion. Equities started out strong after Germany endorsed a hike to Europe’s bailout fund. Stock indexes had wavered amid varying headlines out of Europe, with Bloomberg reporting European Union talks with banks on bondholder losses had stalled, despite what seemed to be a building consensus on a 50% write-down for Greece’s lenders. An EU official speaking on condition of anonymity told Bloomberg the discord was over the details of the proposed transaction. “The rest of the day’s activities will center on European concessions, debt write-downs and how much of this can they stick the banks with without causing them to fail,” noted Kevin Giddis, a fixed-income strategist at Morgan Keegan. All three benchmark indexes spent much or a small portion of the session in the red on worries talks to resolve Europe’s debt crisis might be stalling, only to turn upward again on various related reports. Dow Jones reported French President Nicolas Sarkozy planned to call China’s leader on Thursday to talk about how Beijing might contribute to the euro-area rescue fund aimed at purchasing sovereign debt issued by Greece and other troubled European nations. “The market is rallying on the story that China will buy bonds issued by the EFSF (European Financial Stability Facility),” Peter Boockvar, equity strategist at Miller Tabak, said in emailed comments, citing a similar report in the Irish Times newspaper. “This is not a surprise as they expressed interest back in January,” added Boockvar, who noted that the EFSF is triple-A-rated paper, with the purchase providing the Chinese with diversification from U.S. Treasurys. Also Reuters, citing EU sources, said euro-zone leaders planned to expand the bailout fund to about 1 trillion euros ($1.38 trillion), using leverage of at least four times.

Investor sentiment also had been lifted by a government report that illustrated companies hiked orders for large machinery and other longer-lasting goods in September. Excluding orders for planes and other transit equipment, business expenditures on core capital goods climbed at their most rapid pace in six months. Separately, the Commerce Department reported new U.S. home sales rose 5.7% to a 313,000 annual pace in September.
