A read of the print editions of Friday's Wall St. Journal, Financial Times, the New York Times, USA Today & 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 Thursday's stock prices and related data.

Dow Jones Industrial AverageThe Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Thursday at 11,170.73 down 134.86 or 1.113% from Wednesday's close of 11,905.59. For the year the Dow is up 1.67%. Of the 30 Dow components 2 gained and 28 declined. The biggest gainers dollar-wise were Verizon VZ $36.7 +0.05 0.14% 14,282,242 DualListed and Walmart WMT $56.73 +0.05 0.09% 10,101,568 NYSE and percentage-wise was Verizon VZ $36.7 +0.05 0.14% 14,282,242 DualListed. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Caterpillar CAT $93.81 -1.94 2.03% 9,881,460 NYSE and percentage-wise was Alcoa AA $9.62 -0.35 3.51% 38,617,822 NYSE.

WSJ pC4 "Economic fears drag down stocks" by Brendan Conway says stocks fell thurs driven lower by a confluence of frayed nerves over Europe's sovereign debt, market technicals & fresh worries over Washington's debt negotiations.

Fin Times p22 "Jobless figures beat xpectations but equities fail to make headway" by Ajay Makan says Jefferies plumbed new year lows on Thurs as bond traders sold its debt.

NYT pB6 "Commodities lead a downward trend" by Bloomberg says stocks & commodities slid on Thurs & the euro erased an earlier gain as concern grew that Europe's debt crisis would worsen & lawmakers wold fail to agree on plans to cut the US deficit.

USA Today p4B "Events at home & abroad continue to hammer stocks" by Bloomberg says stocks fell Thurs sending the S&P 500 to its lower level in a month, as concern grew that Europe's debt crisis will worsen & lawmakers will fail to agree on plans to cut the American deficit. Concern about global growth drove down commodity shares, as China's central bank said prices haven't stabilized enough to loosen monetary policy. Alcoa, the largest US aluminum producer, fell 35 cents to $9.62. Intel the world's biggest chipmaker lost 60 cents.

As of the open of the market Friday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C5 of Friday's Wall St. Journal is 0.132129493. Friday's trailing P/E ratio is 12.64 down from Thursday's trailing P/E ratio of 12.78 (year ago it was 14.27); Friday's P/E estimate is 12.22 unchanged from yesterday's P/E estimate of 12.22 (year ago it was 13.22), and today's dividend yield is 2.66 up from Thursday's dividend yield of 2.63 (last year it was 2.55). 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 1,555.16 down 17.92 from Wednesday's closing numerator of 1,573.08. 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 Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $51.84 down 0.60 from Wednesday's average closing price of $52.44. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $41.45 (DD/VZ) down 0.43 from Wednesday's median closing price of 41.88. The lowest volume was Travelers TRV $55.73 -0.61 1.08% 3,914,504 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $5.8 -0.10 1.69% 282,849,026 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 lost $1,792 ($157,308 - $155,516).

MarketWatch Thursday 11/17/11 4:10 pm by Laura Mandaro says US stocks posted broad losses Thursday but closed off their lows of the session. A jump in borrowing costs for France and Spain at government debt auctions gave investors fresh reason to worry about an impending European debt default, overriding signs of improvement in U.S. housing and jobs data. Gold and oil also tumbled, pressuring resource stocks. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA lost 134.64 points, or 1.1%, to 11,770.95, with Alcoa Inc.'s AA +0.52% 3.5% drop leading declines in 28 of 30 components. The S&P 500 fell 20.74 points, or 1.7%, to 1,216.18. The Nasdaq Composite lost 51.62 points, or 2%, to 2,587.99.
