WSJ pC1 "Dow ends near 4 year high" by Jon Cheng says the Dow closed near a 4 year high boosted by sins of an accelerating US economic recovery & glimmers of hope on the Greek debt crisis. Microsoft soared 4.1% to finish at a 4 year high. Bank of America rose 4% to put its advance this year at 46%.

Fin Times p22 "Banks lead rally as S&P closes in on its post fin'l crisis peak" by Ajay Makan says the S&P closed at a 9 month high & just 5 points shy of its post-fin'l crisis peak,a s investors shrugged off delays to a deal on bailout funding for Greece & the threat of ratings downgrades for US banks. Microsoft was given a bounce by the rebalancing effect with its weighting in the Dow Jones Indt'l Average set to increase. Its shares climbed 4.1% helping the Dow close above 12,900 for the first time since '08.

NYT pB8 "Economic data pushes Wall St higher" by AP says the stock market jumped ahead on the strength of the American job market Thurs & barreled toward its highest levels of the year.

Inv. Bus. Daily pA1 "Stocks rise sharply, but volume sags" by Paul Whitfield says stocks stuck to a confident tone Thurs as the indexes surged despite a ratings warnings from Moody's. The action was up in lower volume while the current outlook remains in aconfirmed uptrend.

USA Today p4B "Markets turn around, show gains on Greece optimism" by Bloomberg says stocks advanced Thurs sending the S&P index near its highest level in 3 years amid better than estimated economic reports & optimism that Greece will receive a 2nd bailout.

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 14.39 up from Thursday's trailing P/E ratio of 14.26 (year ago it was 15.09); today's P/E estimate is 12.26 unchanged from Thursday's P/E estimate of 12.26 (year ago it was 12.81) and today's dividend yield is 2.51 down from yesterday's dividend yield of 2.53 (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.

Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,705.01 up 16.28 from Wednesday's closing numerator of 1,688.73. 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 $56.83 up $0.54 from Wednesday's average closing price of $56.29. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $48.23 (DD/HD) up $0.64 from Wednesday's median closing price of $47.59. The lowest volume was TRV Travelers Companies Inc 59.44 +0.15 0.25% 2,793,302NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $8.09 +0.31 3.98% 336,560,181 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 $1,628 ($170,501 - $168,870).

MarketWatch Thursday 2/16/12 5:11 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks surged Thursday, with the Dow industrials less than 100 points from the 13,000 level, as the outlook for Greece’s bailout improved and American jobless claims slid to a nearly four-year low. Emerging markets are up 14% this year, outperforming U.S. indexes. Time to go all in? Jerry Webman, chief economist at OppenheimerFunds, says be picky and choose a company by where customers are, not its CEO. The market advance comes along with “continuing favorable economic data,” said Jeffrey Saut, chief investment strategist at Raymond James. “The laggard has been employment, but it’s a damn sight better now than in the first, second or third quarter of ’09.”
A day after its worst session of this year, the Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA +0.96% rose 123.13 points, or 1%, to 12,904.08, with all but one of its 30 components in the black. The gain, which put the blue-chip average back at its highest since May 2008, more than recovered Wednesday’s drop of 97.33 points, or 0.8%.The S&P 500 Index SPX +1.10% gained 14.81 points, or 1.1%, to 1,358.04, with materials and financials faring best among its 10 industry groups. All closed higher.If the S&P 500 closes above 1,356, “the bulls will then target 1,370 — the May 2011 high,” said Elliot Spar, a market strategist at Stifel Nicolaus, ahead of the trading session’s end.The Nasdaq Composite Index COMP +1.51% surged 44.02 points, or 1.5%, to 2,959.85 — its highest close since December 2000 and about 40 points from 3,000.“While every technical type was talking about the key reversal day in Apple, the bulls ran with the ball without the three horsemen,” said Spar, referring to Apple Inc. AAPL -0.01% , Google Inc. GOOG -0.22% and Amazon.com Inc. AMZN +0.10%Shares of Amazon AMZN +0.10% declined 2.5% after Morgan Stanley downgraded shares of the online megaretailer to equal weight from overweight.
Apple shares gained 0.9%, rebounding from the prior day’s loss. Read more on Apple's "reversal."For every stock falling, more than three gained on the New York Stock Exchange, where 805 million shares traded. NYSE composite volume was more than 4 billion. Nasdaq Composite volume was 1.9 billion.As Wall Street’s gained picked up speed, Peter Boockvar, equity strategist at Miller Tabak, cited news that the European Central Bank would swap its Greek bonds for newly issued ones that are “likely further out in maturity, to give Greece some breathing room.” ‘I think Europe in the short to intermediate term is off the table.’ Jeffrey Saut, Raymond James. The swap would also protect the ECB and other central banks that make up the euro from efforts to force the central bank to take losses connected to negotiations between Greece and its private-sector bondholders, according to The Wall Street Journal. ECB officials have refused to take losses on their Greek bonds. “They are going to find a way to paper over this,” said Saut. “I think Europe in the short to intermediate term is off the table.”Whether European nations manage to fix the longer-term systemic trouble is another matter, he added.The number of U.S. applicants filing first-time claims for unemployment benefits last week fell by 13,000 at 348,000, the lowest level since March 2008. The four-week average also declined, down 1,750 at 365,250, to hover near a four-year low. Read more about Labor Department data.The indexes solidified their gains after the Philadelphia Federal Reserve’s manufacturing index in February rose to 10.2, the highest level since October and better than expected. Read more on Philly Fed.
Other economic reports had housing starts up 1.5% in January and wholesale prices climbing 0.1% on the month.Ahead of Wall Street’s start Thursday, stock-index futures had pointed to losses, with investors rattled by a Moody’s Investors Service move late Wednesday to review the ratings of more than 100 financial institutions around the world.
