Post No. 1,360 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 December 1, 2011.

A read of the print editions of Thursday's Wall St. Journal, Financial Times, New York Times, USA Today, Atlanta Journal Constitution & 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 12,196.37 up 46.24 or 0.38% from Tuesday's close of 12,150.13. For the year the Dow is up 5.35%. Of the 30 Dow components 22 gained and 8 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was IBM $194.05 +1.11 0.58% 5,043,669 NYSE and percentage-wise was JPMorgan JPM $34 +0.77 2.32% 44,254,955 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Caterpillar CAT $94.89 -1.07 1.12% 8,129,595 NYSE.

WSJ pC4 "Dow Industrials charm investors by Jonathan Cheng says the Dow advanced for a 3rd straight day as reports out of Europe buffeted investors. Fin'l stocks finished the day with the strongest gains after starting the day as the worst performing sector as JPMorgan rose 77 cents to lead the Dow while Bank of America climbed 11 cents.

Fin Times p26 "Oil service sector under pressure with number of active rigs falling" by Ajay Makan says oilfield services firms slipped as the Baker Hughes global oil & gas rig count fell for the first time since April.

NYT pB11 "Shares gain on hope euro zone can find a solution to its debt crisis" by Reuters says hope that the euro zone will find a solution to its debt crisis inspired enough buying to push stocks to a 3rd day of gain on Wed.

USA Today p4B "Stocks mixed as hopes rise for progress on crisis in Europe" by Bloomberg says US stocks rose Wed sending the Dow to its highest level since Oct, amid optimism that European leaders will announce further efforts to halt the debt crisis at a summit this week.

As of the open of the market Thursday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C5 of today's Wall St. Journal is 0.132129493. Thursday's trailing P/E ratio is 13.19 up from Wednesday's trailing P/E ratio of 13.14 (year ago it was 14.50); Thursday's P/E estimate is 12.35 unchanged from Wednesday's P/E estimate of 12.35 (year ago it was 13.33), and today's dividend yield is 2.59 unchanged from Wednesday's dividend yield of 2.59 (last year it was 2.52). 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.

Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,611.50 up 6.11 from Tuesday's closing numerator of 1605.39. 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 $53.72 up 0.21 from Tuesday's average closing price of $53.51. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $44.41 (DD/HD up $0.28 from Tuesday's median closing price of $44.13. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $82.39 +0.26 0.32% 4,291,617 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $5.89 +0.11 1.9% 240,311,430 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 $611 ($161,150 - $160,539).

MarketWatch Wednesday 12/7/11 4:55 pm by Kate Gibson says US stocks on Wednesday closed near to where they began, with the Dow industrials displaying the most strength, as investors crossed their fingers two days ahead of a European Union summit. “We’ve got two big days ahead of us, which has freaked out the shorts, as people are assuming there will be an announcement that will buy us more time,” Peter Boockvar, equity strategist at Miller Tabak, said of a European Union summit on Friday. The bigger deal is how the European Central Bank responds to recent events, said Boockvar of conflicting messages that crossed computer screens late in Wednesday’s session. Japan’s Nikkei news agency reported the Group of 20 was considering a $600 billion International Monetary Fund lending program, but CNBC cited an IMF official who said no such plan was being considered. After a two-day decline, the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 46.24 points, or 0.4%, to end at 12,196.37, supported by a 2.3% rise in JPMorgan Chase & Co. after the bank said it has the authority to buy back additional shares after spending less than regulators allowed on dividends. The S&P 500 Index added 2.54 points, or 0.2%, to 1,261.01, while the Nasdaq Composite Index declined fractionally to 2,649.21. Advancers edged ahead of decliners on the New York Stock Exchange, where 968 million shares traded. Composite volume topped 4.1 billion. “When people are afraid, you’re going to get these big swings, because the foundation isn’t there for certainty,” said Kim Caughey Forrest, senior equity analyst at Fort Capital in Pittsburgh. “In general you have to have a bit of optimism when you look at the U.S. economy, but we’re being nagged by Europe,” said Jim Dunigan, managing executive of investments at PNC Wealth Management. In separate statements Wednesday, Standard & Poor’s said the European Union’s AAA long-term rating and some of the region’s biggest financial institutions could be downgraded. Investors largely have held out hope this week that European Union leaders would reach agreement Friday on a plan that would help the 17 nations that use the euro to further connect their economies. Those expectations were bolstered by comments from German Chancellor Angela Merkel supporting a stronger fiscal union among euro-zone members. Then late in Tuesday’s session, stocks made a brief surge on a Financial Times report that European leaders are considering letting the euro zone’s existing rescue fund continue running when a larger facility comes into force in the middle of next year, in a bid to bulk up the power of the bailout funds. Read Tuesday's Market Snapshot. But a German official on Wednesday threw cold water on that optimism in comments to reporters in Berlin, causing stocks in Europe giving up their gains after the reports. Read more about European markets. “There are conflicting messages on how much resolve they have in trying to fix the problem,” Dunigan said.“Some of those leaks are suggesting the optimism over what is going to happen may be overstated, and unfortunately we seem to be held hostage to that situation.”
