Post No. 1,468 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' recent SEC filings.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Friday at 12,801.23 down 89.23 or 0.69% from Thursday's close of 12,890.46. For the week the Dow was down 61 points or 0.047% from last Friday's close of 12,862.23. Of the 30 Dow components only Home Depot gained and 29 declined. The only and therefore the biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Home Depot HD
$45.33 +0.06 0.13% 4,987,451 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Chevron CVX $105.28 -1.09 1.02% 6,085,290 NYSE and percentage-wise was Alcoa AA $10.29 -0.35 3.29% 23,200,359 NYSE.

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 14.38 down from yesterday's trailing P/E ratio of 14.39 (year ago it was 14.95); today's P/E estimate is 12.30 unchanged from Thursday's P/E estimate of 12.30 (year ago it was 12.64) and today's dividend yield is 2.50 unchanged from yesterday's dividend yield of 2.50 (last year it was 2.36). 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 1,691.42 down 11.79 from Thursday's closing numerator of 1,703.21. 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 $56.38 down 77 down $0.39 from Thursday's average closing price of $56.77. The median closing price of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $48.24 (DD/HD) down $0.43 from Thursday's median closing price of $48.67. The lowest volume was Travelers TRV $59.38 -0.51 0.85% 1,859,573 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $8.07 -0.11 1.34% 253,530,551 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 $1,179 ($170,321 - $169,142).

MarketWatch Friday 2/10/12 5:02 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks made their biggest drop of the year Friday, quitting five weeks of gains for the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite, on worries that efforts to keep Greece from defaulting were falling apart. As stocks dove, the Chicago Board Options Exchange Volatility Index VIX +11.59% leapt above 20 for the first time in nearly two weeks, rising more than 11%. The move “doesn’t represent huge panic, but as people get too complacent, they need to be reminded all is not well in the world, although domestically, things have improved,” said Randy Frederick, director of trading and derivatives at the Schwab Center for Financial Research. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA -0.69% trimmed some losses in the final minutes, falling 89.23 points, or 0.7%, to 12,801.23, tallying a loss of 0.5% for the week. Alcoa Inc. AA -3.29% led declines, falling 3.3%. Only one of the Dow’s 30 components rose. The S&P 500 index SPX -0.69% retreated 9.31 points, or 0.7%, to 1,342.64, for a loss of 0.2% for the week. Natural-resource companies were hardest hit while utilities lost the least ground among its 10 major industry sectors. All closed lower. The Nasdaq Composite COMP -0.80% declined 23.35 points, or 0.8%, to 2,903.88. For the week, it declined 0.1%. For every stock advancing nearly three fell on the New York Stock Exchange, where 750 million shares traded. NYSE composite volume was 3.8 billion. The euro and commodities prices also fell, while the dollar DXY +0.46% and Treasury prices gained. Equities around the globe declined after emergency talks of euro-zone finance ministers ended with Luxembourg Prime Minister Jean-Claude Juncker saying Greece has to find 325 million euros in spending cuts. ‘Even if Greece falls apart, we’ll have a day or two pullback, and be glad we’re done with this. Then we can stop worrying about Greece and focus on our domestic economy, which is doing quite well. Separately, the head of one of three political parties supporting Greece’s interim Prime Minister Lucas Papademos said he would not back the austerity moves. The major indexes furthered their fall after a gauge of consumer confidence came in below expectations. The University of Michigan/Thomson Reuters initial index of sentiment for February declined to 72.5 from a reading of 75 at the end of January.U.S. stocks have been primed for a fall, or at least a pause, given the market’s advance so far this year, with the S&P 500 down just nine sessions, and up 6.8% year-to-date. “We’ve had a pretty solid run on the S&P 500, so I’d thought we’d have a pullback,” said Frederick. “The Dow has already broken out and exceeded last year’s high, while the S&P has not, but there’s every reason to believe it will in the next month or so, regardless what happens in Greece,” said Frederick. The Dow this week closed at its highest since May 2008, while the Nasdaq Composite hit its highest since December 2000. While Frederick believes there is a high possibility of a Greek default, the International Monetary Fund and European Central Bank in the final two months of 2011 made the right moves to ensure other European Union nations won’t run the risk of default, regardless of the outcome in Greece. “In theory we have another month that they can fool around,” said Frederick of the date in the latter part of March that Greece faces its next loan repayment. “But even if Greece falls apart, we’ll have a day or two pullback, and be glad we’re done with this. Then we can stop worrying about Greece and focus on our domestic economy, which is doing quite well,” he said. As for Friday’s jump in the VIX, the size of the move is noteworthy, but the climb above 20 could be viewed as a healthy one, given the measure of market uncertainty had been projecting an overly complacent investment community. “We need a little more skepticism in the market. There is a lot going on,” said Frederick, who adds the VIX’s moves upwards represent “a measure of uncertainty, not necessarily fear.”
“With the VIX moving upward, one might be tempted to conclude that this is indicative of the deal that is destined to fail,” said Michael Yoshikami, chief executive officer at YCMNET Advisors. “We don’t believe that to be the case and expect the remaining issues related to sovereign austerity to be resolved in the next couple weeks,” he said.

The following are excerpts from Friday morning's Blog.

A read of the print editions of Friday's Wall St. Journal, Financial Times, Investor's Business Daily, 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 Thursday's stock prices and related data.

Dow Jones Industrial AverageThe Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Thursday at 12,890.46 up 6.51 or 0.04% from Wednesday's close of 12,883.95. For the year the Dow is up 5.51%. Of the 30 Dow components 13 gained, Verizon was unchanged and 16 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was United Technologies UTX $83.78 +2.04 2.5% 8,799,207 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Caterpillar CAT $112.83 -1.21 1.06% 7,518,664 NYSE and percentage-wise was Cisco CSCO $20 -0.43 2.1% 130,661,190 NASDAQ-GS..

WSJ pC4 "Stocks notch one more, boosted by labor data" by Chris Dieterich says stocks edged higher for a 3rd straight session as investors showed tempered enthusiasm for progress toward a new Greek bailout & cont'd improvement in the US labor market. Tech & consumer staple stocks led sector gains as United Technologies was up $2.04. Cisco trailed among blue chips down 43 cents afte reporting fiscal 2Q results late Wed.

Inv. Bus. Dialy pA1 "nasdaq, Dow industrials hit new highs" by Paul Whitfield says several indexes stepped to new highs Thurs as the market cont'd to show strength. The action was mostly up in mixed volume as the current outlook is a "confirmed uptrend."

NYT pB8 "Markets remain cautious on Greek developments" by Reuters says stocks rose modestly for a 3rd straight day after Greece reached a deal to secure a fin'l bailout but investors were cautious after weeks of gains.

Fin times p22 "Muted share price reaction to regulators' deal on foreclosures" by Ajay Makan says US bank stocks saw a mixed reaction as US regulators announced a deal that could be worth up to $39.5 bil to resolve allegations that the largest US mortgage lenders improperly foreclosed on homes. Bank of America climbed 0.6%, its highest level since Aug but JPMorgan fell 1.2%.

USA Today p4B "Greek austerity package deal gives stocks a minor boost" by Bloomberg says stocks rose as Greece's political leaders struck a deal on a package of austerity measures needed to secure int'l rescue funds.

Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,703.21 up 0.86 from Wednesday's closing numerator of 1,702.35. 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.
