Post No. 1,257 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.

A read of the print editions of Monday's Barron's, the combined Sat/Sun issues of each of The Wall St. Journal & Financial Times, the Sun & Sat. issues of each of The New York Times & Atlanta Journal Constitution 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 11,103.12 down 20.21 or 1.18% from Thursday's close of 11,123.33. For the week the Dow is up 189.74 points or 1.74% from last Friday's Dow close of 10,913.38. For the year the Dow is down 4.10%. Of the 30 Dow components 16 gained and 14 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Walmart WMT $53.7 +0.95 1.8% 13,797,434 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise JPMorgan JPM $30.7 -1.68 5.19% 47,176,188 NYSE and percentage-wise was Bank of America BAC $5.9 -0.38 6.05% 279,309,110 NYSE.

WSJ pB4 "Dow snaps streak but up for week" by Brendan Conway says stocks finished lower & the Dow snapped a 3 day winning streak as fin'l stocks fell & Europe's sovereign debt problems overshadowed a stronger US employment reading. Bank of America shed 38 cents leading the Dow lower followed by JPMorgan which lost $1.68. Consumer stocks rose after the jobs report, helping limit losses. Walmart led the Dow's gainers as it rose 95 cents & Home Depot added 54 cents.

Sat NYT pB7 "Shares fall after Europe debt downgrades" by Joshua Brustein says after trading in a narrow range for most of the day, the major Wall St indexes closed lower on Fri as investors weighed modestly positive news about the American labor market against more evidence of troubles in Europe. The Labor Dept said US added more jobs than expected last month.

Fin Times p13 "Target to the fore as robust retails ales bring cheer" by Ajay Makan says in a week in which the S&P moved into bear territory Wall St closed Fri in surprisingly good cheer buoyed by strong retail sales data & a better than expected employment report.

As of the close of the market Friday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page B4 of Saturday's Wall St. Journal is 0.132129493. Saturday's trailing P/E ratio is 12.39 down from Friday's trailing P/E ratio of 12.41 (year ago it was 14.85); Saturday's P/E estimate is 11.25 up from Friday's P/E estimate of 11.15 (year ago it was 13.15), and Saturday's dividend yield is 2.79 up from Friday's dividend yield of 2.78 (last year it was 2.56). 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 1,467.05 down 2.66 from Thursday's closing numerator of 1,469.71. 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 $48.90 down $0.09 from Thursday's average closing price of $48.99. The median closing price of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $39.03 (DD/VZ) up 0.14 from Thursday's median closing price of $39.89. The lowest volume was Travelers TRV $49 -1.19 2.37% 3,918,794 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $5.9 -0.38 6.05% 279,309,110 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 $266 ($146,971 - $146705).

MarketWatch Friday 10/7/11 4:26 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks ended lower Friday, denting weekly gains, as credit-rating cuts for Italy and Spain offset a better-than-anticipated payrolls report, prompting caution before the weekend. “The economic data stream this week has been almost entirely better than expected and almost entirely ignored. The good news is we again have not gone into a double-dip recession, the bad news is nobody seems to care right now with all of our focus on Greece,” said Art Hogan, head of product strategy at Lazard Capital Markets, of Europe’s debt crisis. “We have a market that is stuck in no-man’s land, we’ve been in the same range for two months, roughly 1,100 to 1,200 on the S&P 500. We’re not oversold, we’re not overbought, we’re right where we should be headed into the weekend,” Hogan added. After three days of triple-digit gains, the Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 20.21 points, or 0.2%, to 11,103.12, leaving the blue chips with a 1.7% rise from last Friday’s close and marking the index’s second straight weekly gain, its first such streak since July.
Up 2.1% for the week, the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index shed 9.51 points, or 0.8%, to 1,155.46. Among notable movers, shares of Sprint Nextel Corp. fell 20% after the wireless-service provider said it would need to raise more capital to expand a high-speed data network. The Nasdaq Composite Index declined 27.47 points, or 1.1%, to 2,479.35, a level that leaves it with a 2.7% weekly rise. For every stock that rose more than two fell on the New York Stock Exchange, where more than 1.1 billion shares traded hands; composite volume neared 4.8 billion shares. Crude-oil futures finished at $82.98 a barrel, a gain of 39 cents on the day, while gold futures lost $17.40 to end at $1,635.80 an ounce. Read more on oil futures and Read more on gold futures. Stocks took a definitive turn lower after Fitch cut Spain and Italy’s credit ratings, saying both countries were more likely to default doe to Europe’s debt trouble. Investor sentiment drew a lift from a rosier-than-forecast report on U.S. jobs growth but lost steam as investors squared positions ahead of the weekend. “The market is giving up gains as market participants are conscious of making large bets going into the weekend, so it’s not surprising to see a flattening of positions,” said Hogan. Ahead of the opening bell, the Labor Department reported employers added 103,000 workers in September after a revised 57,000 increase the month before. The unemployment rate remained at 9.1%. “It’s positive news, it’s not a robust number but expectations were relatively low. It’s not enough to make a dent in the unemployment rate, but it indicates we’re not moving into a recession, which some have been pricing into the market,” said Brad Sorensen, director of market and sector analysis at the Schwab Center for Financial Research.
