Post No. 1,501 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 Thursday at 12,980.30 up 28.3 or 0.22% from Wednesday's close of 12,952.07. Of the 30 Dow components 20 gained, Cisco was unchanged and 9 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise IBM $197.51 +0.78 0.4% 3,261,641 NYSE and percentage-wise was Pfizer PFE $21.5 +0.375 1.78% 44,525,099 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Procter & Gamble PG $66.66 -0.96 1.42% 11,884,540 NYSE.

As of the open of the market Thursday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C5 of Thursday's Wall St. Journal is 0.132129493. Thursday's trailing P/E ratio is 14.49 down from Wednesday's trailing P/E ratio of 14.55 (year ago it was 14.65); Thursday's P/E estimate is 12.45 unchanged from yesterday's P/E estimate of 12.45 (year ago it was 12.67) and today's dividend yield is 2.51 up from yesterday's dividend yield of 2.50 (last year it was 2.41). 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 1,715.08 up 7.30 from Wednesday's closing numerator of 1,707.78. 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 $57.17 up $0.24 from Wednesday's average closing price of $56.93. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $49.36 (DD/HD)up $0.15 from Wedneday's median closing price of $49.21. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $87.49 -0.11 0.13% 2,520,622 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $8.111 +0.141 1.77% 190,295,124 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 $730 ($171,508 - $170,778).

MarketWatch Thursday 3/1/12 4:09 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks closed higher Thursday, after scaling back late in the session on reports of a blast destroying pipelines in Saudi Arabia that sent oil futures above $110 a barrel. "Every dip is being bought," said Peter Boockvar, equity strategist at Miller Tabak. The price of oil rising "because of supply issues is a lot different than due to demand," said Boockvar. "The market doesn't care," he added. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA +0.22% added 28.23 points, or 0.2%, to end at 12,980.30. The S&P 500 SPX +0.62% rose 8.41 points, or 0.6%, to 1,374.09. The Nasdaq Composite COMP +0.74% advanced 22.08 points, or 0.7%, to 2,988.97.

The following are excerpts from Thurs. morning's Blog.

A read of the print editions of Thursday's Wall St. Journal, Financial Times, Investor's Business Daily,New York Times, USA Today, Atlanta Journal Constitution and Daily Report (Ga. - carried 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 12,952.07 down 53.05 or 0.41% from Tuesday's close of 13,005.12. For the year the Dow is up 6.01%. Of the 30 Dow components 9 gained and 21 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Coke KO $69.86 +1.01 1.47% 11,502,502 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Caterpillar CAT $114.21 -1.55 1.34% 6,653,822 NYSE and percentage-wise was Hewlett-Packard HPQ $25.31 -0.87 3.32% 38,120,588 NYSE.

WSJ pC4 "Recovery worries weigh on stocks" by Jonathan Cheng says stocks ended a strong month of gains on a weak note, after Fed Res. Chairman Ben Bernanke took a cautious view of the US recovery and offered few clear signals for add'l easing measures to aid the economy. Pulling the indexes lower were materials & energy stocks. Hewlett-Packard fell 87 cents to lead the Dow down while Alcoa lost 20 cents and Exxon dropped 64 cents.

Fin Times p26 "Nasdaq touches 3000 as rally in Apple shows little sign of slowing" by Ajay Makan says nasdaq topped 3000 briefly for the first time in more than 11 years. JPMorgan bucked the trend to climb 0.1% after its CEO forecast record breaking profits at an analyst day on Tues.

NYT pB11 "bernanke's comments stp a winning streak" by Reuters says stocks slipped on Wed after Bernanke disappointed investors hoping for a signal of more stimulus.

Inv. Bus. Daily pA1 "Stocks slip, but enjoy huge 2 month run" by David Saito-Chung says stocks reversed & stumbled lower in higher vol Wed but that didn't stop the market from enjoying one of its best Jan-Feb periods in 20 years. The current outlook is the market is still in a confirmed uptrend.

USA Today p4B "No hint of new Fed stimulus knocks wind out of stock rally" by Bloomberg says stocks fell Wed snapping a 4 session advance by the S&P as Fed Res Chair Bernanke gave no signal that the central bank is considering more measures to spur the economy.

Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,707.78 down 10.48 from Tuesday's closing numerator of 1,718.36. 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 Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $56.93 down $0.25 from Tuesday's average closing price of $57.28. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $49.21 (DD/HD)down $0.10 from Monday's median closing price of $49.31. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $87.6 -0.17 0.19% 3,210,198 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $7.97 -0.15 1.85% 254,615,635 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 lost $1,018 ($171,836 - $170,778).

MarketWatch Wednesday 2/29/12 4:44 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks indexes fell modestly Wednesday in closing the books on strong February gains, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average rising for a fifth straight month. “A combination of good economic news and stimulus is all contributing to a good market,” said Mark Martiak, senior wealth strategist at Premier Financial Advisors in New York. “Europe is moving in the right direction too, although a lot of what is going on in the sovereign debt crisis is already priced into the market,” Martiak added. Up 2.5% for February and 6% year-to-date, the Dow DJI -0.41% shed 53.05 points, or 0.4%, to close at 12,952.07. The blue-chip index on Tuesday closed above 13,000 for the first time since May 2008. “The last time we were here, the valuation of the S&P 500 was 17 times, we currently have a 14 PE multiple,” Art Hogan, strategist at Lazard Capital Markets, said of price to earnings per share. “In a real sense, we’re much more fairly valued than the Dow 13,000 the last time we were here,” he added. The S&P 500 Index SPX -0.47% declined 6.5 points, or 0.5%, to 1,365.68, a February rise of 4.1% and its third consecutive monthly gain, leaving it 8.6% higher from the end of 2011. The Nasdaq Composite Index COMP -0.67% declined 19.87 points, or 0.7%, to 2,966.89. The technology-laden Nasdaq rose 5.4% in February, its second straight monthly advance, which has it nearly 14% higher for 2012 so far, with Apple Inc. AAPL +0.01% in particular leading the climb.
“With tech, the risk-on trade is better than ever, especially when you look at Apple, which keeps breaking through to new historic highs. It’s such a bellwether for the sector,” said Premier Financial’s Martiak of the iPod maker, which had its market capitalization top $500 billion on Tuesday. On Wednesday, stocks reverted to losses, with the Dow clearing what had been a 50-point rise, after Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke curbed market expectations of more monetary easing in testifying before Congress. Gold futures GCJ2 -5.10% sank and the dollar DXY +0.73% rebounded after Bernanke didn’t deliver any hint that the Fed was thinking about further steps to bolster economic growth. “This must have been the best-kept secret in a long time: the market looking for an indication from Bernanke’s testimony that additional easing in the form of QE3 was on the way,” noted Elliot Spar, market strategist at Stifel Nicolaus, in emailed commentary. In his testimony, Bernanke said keeping monetary stimulus is warranted but climbing energy costs would likely hike inflation temporarily and that the decline in the nation’s jobless rate had been more rapid than expected. Ahead of the Fed chairman’s appearance, U.S. stocks had risen modestly, lifting the Nasdaq briefly above 3,000 for the first time since late 2000, after data showed the economy grew more than expected in the fourth quarter and as worries about Europe’s financial troubles ebbed. “It’s a move in the right direction,” said Lazard’s Hogan of the Commerce Department’s upward revision in gross domestic product, to 3% growth from an initial reading of 2.8%, for the final three months of 2011. While Dow 13,000 and Nasdaq 3,000 could be a boost to sentiment, Martiak said he’s watching for the S&P 500 to clear technical resistance at 1,400 to 1,425. “It took awhile to get to 13,000, so I think it will be a measured pace, but the S&P breaching 1,400 is a reasonable expectation sometime next month,” Martiak said. For every stock rising nearly two fell on the New York Stock Exchange, where 1.1 billion shares traded. Composite volume topped 4.4 billion. Oil futures CLJ2 +0.33% rose for their first session in three after the government reported U.S. stockpiles of crude climbed to a more-than-five-month high. The contract for April delivery closed 52 cents higher at $107.07 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. European banks and institutions took billions in loans from the European Central Bank under its long term refinancing operation. A major driver in the market stemmed from the ECB’s allocation of 529.5 billion euros ($713.4 billion) in its second auction of three-year loans to the banking sector. The amount was slightly higher than some analysts expected, but not so high that it stoked worries about stresses on the banks. “The ECB seems to have a real game plan here, the second tranche of the LTRO is right in line with credible expectations that should keep the liquidity crisis at bay,” said Hogan. Stock gains were supported after the open by a gauge of business activity in the Chicago area rising more than expected in February.
And, stock indexes were little moved by the afternoon release of the Federal Reserve’s Beige Book, an anecdotal read of economic conditions across the country. The report found modest improvements in residential real estate and banking conditions.
