Post No. 1,511 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 Wednesday at 12,837.33 up 78.18 or 0.61% from Tuesday's close of 12,759.15. Of the 30 Dow components 22 gained and 8 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Caterpillar CAT $108.28 +2.35 2.22% 7,323,700 NYSE and percentage-wise was Bank of America BAC $8.02 +0.31 4.02% 326,904,881 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Kraft KFT $37.83 -0.44 1.15% 10,922,748 NYSE.

As of the open of the market Wednesday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C6 of Wednesday's Wall St. Journal is 0.132129493. Wednesday's trailing P/E ratio is 14.28 down from yesterday's trailing P/E ratio of 14.51(year ago it was 14.69); Wednesday's P/E estimate is 12.45 unchanged from Tuesday's P/E estimate of 12.45 (year ago it was 12.79) and today's dividend yield is 2.55 up from yesterday's dividend yield of 2.51 (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.

Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,696.18 up 10.32 from Tuesday's closing numerator of 1,685.86. 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 $56.54 up $0.34 from Tuesday's average closing price of $56.20. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $48.81 (DD/HD)up $0.60 from Tuesday's median closing price of $48.21. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $85.47 -0.52 0.61% 3,150,701 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $8.02 +0.31 4.02% 326,904,881 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 $1,032 ($169,618 - $168,586).

MarketWatch Wednesday 3/7/12 4:57 pm by Laura Mandaro & Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks
recovered some of the prior day’s losses Wednesday, helped by an upbeat report on jobs growth, a report the Federal Reserve could implement new bond buys if the economy flags and signs of progress on Greece’s debt swap. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA +0.61% ended up 78.18 points, or 0.6%, to 12,837.33 — a day after falling more than 200 points for its worst single-session drop of the year. Bank of America Corp. BAC -0.25% shares, up 4%, led gains for 23 of 30 components. Stocks added to gains after a report the Federal Reserve, if it were to take new steps to boost the economy in the months ahead, would consider a type of bond-buying program designed to subdue worries about inflation. Traditionally, crude fell when the dollar rose, but global influences have changed that relationship. The Wall Street Journal, in its online edition, said the Fed could print new money to buy long-term mortgage or Treasury bonds, but effectively tie up that money by borrowing it back for short periods at low rates. “There’s a feeling among investors that the odds of additional easing had been going down. A story like this suggests they’re still considering it,” said Dan Greenhaus, chief global strategist at BTIG LLC. “All the market heard was ‘new steps.’” The S&P 500 Index SPX +0.69% climbed 9.27 points, or 0.7%, to 1,352.63, with financials and industrials among the sectors leading those gains. Utilities was the only one of 10 sectors to close lower. The Nasdaq Composite Index COMP +0.87% gained 25.37 points, or 0.9%, to 2,935.69. No. 1 component Apple Inc. AAPL +0.16% ended up 0.1% in choppy trading after it unveiled a new version of its iPad tablet, which features a high-definition screen, a faster processor and 4G network connectivity on some models. For every stock declining, more than three gained on the New York Stock Exchange. Volume was moderate. On the NYSE, 801 million shares traded. NYSE composite volume topped 3.5 billion, under last year’s average but 93% of the past month’s average. Nasdaq composite volume rose above 1.5 billion. Stocks had opened moderately higher after payroll-processor Automatic Data Processing Inc. said U.S. companies added 216,000 employees to their employee rolls last month. Growth was in line with forecasts and instilled some confidence ahead of Friday’s nonfarm-payrolls report from the Labor Department.
The ADP data were “positive,” and the market was “reacting accordingly,” said Peter Tuz, a portfolio manager at Chase Investment Counsel in Charlottesville, Va.
“We’ll see what happens Friday. I’m still thinking we’re going to see a gain in jobs, private-sector jobs especially,” said Tuz of Friday’s report. Also, the Institute of International Finance — a trade group that helped negotiate the terms of Greece’s debt restructuring with its private-sector bondholders — said 30 members holding 81 billion euros in outstanding Greek debt had agreed to participate in the program. Greece’s Finance Ministry has said bondholders representing 75% of privately held Greek debt must sign up by a Thursday deadline for the deal to go forward. On Tuesday, Wall Street tumbled on worries that too few bondholders would agree to Greece’s debt restructuring, derailing a second bailout for the government and ushering in a new round of pain for the rest of the euro zone. Recent concerns about Greece are not a “reason to sell everything, but it’s reason to stay alert for next few days through possible but improbable glitches,” said Jerry Webman, chief economist at OppenheimerFunds. “I don’t want to tell people this is all over,” he added. However, “I strongly think interests are strongly aligned to get the deal done.“ Gold and oil futures also added to gains after the report on the Fed’s possible next steps. Oil for April delivery CLJ2 +1.39% rose $1.46, or 1.4%, to $106.16 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange, turning higher after a weekly supply report had inventory up less than expected. Gold for April delivery GCJ2 +0.78% gained $11.80, or 0.7%, to $1,683.90 an ounce.

The following are excerpts from Wednesday morning's Blog.

A read of the print editions of Wednesday'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 Tuesday's stock prices and related data.

Dow Jones Industrial AverageThe Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Tuesday at 12,759.15 down 203.66 or 1.57% from Monday's close of 12,962.81. For the year the Dow is up 4.43%. Of the 30 Dow components only Intel gained and 29 declined. The only and therefore biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Intel INTC $26.605 +0.065 0.24% 36,881,796 NASDAQ-GS. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Caterpillar CAT $105.93 -4.16 3.78% 12,519,211 NYSE and percentage-wise was Alcoa AA $9.47 -0.40 4.05% 33,655,024 NYSE.

WSJ pC1 "Dow's steady streak ends" by E.S. Browning says 3 months of steady stock market gains halted Tues as investors wrung their hands over the prospect Greece is likely to invoke a law forcing unwilling investors to accept the terms of its debt restructuring.

Inv. Bus. Daily pA1 "Stocks hammered; some leaders hit" by Victor Reklaitis says stocks on Tues suffered their worst losses so far in '12, swooning on bad news overseas. The action was down sharply in higher volume while the current outlook is an confirmed uptrend.

NYT pB7 "Shares dive on concern about global economy" by AP says stocks suffeed their biggest losses in 3 months, the first interruption in a steady rally that has started the year, amid worries about the global economy & Greece's ability to pressure the last investors to sign on for its bailout.

Fin Times p24 "Fin'ls and ind'ls suffer as S&P retreat accelerates" by Arash Massoudi says the S&P suffered its worst day in 3 months as investors worried about contagion from the eurozone. Bank of America dropped below $8.

USA Today p4B "Greek debt, Europe recession worries send stocks tumbling" by Bloomberg says stocks slumped Tues sending the S&P to its biggest decline this year, as concern grew about the success of a Greece debt deal and after a report showed that the European economy contracted.

Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,685.86 down 26.91 from Monday's closing numerator of 1,712.77. 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 Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $56.20 down $0.89 from Monday's average closing price of $57.09. The median closing price of Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $48.21 (DD/HD)up $0.93 from Monday's median closing price of $49.14. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $
$84.95 -2.11 2.42% 3,503,525 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $7.71 -0.26 3.26% 256,917,555 NYSE.

If Tuesday 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 $2,691 ($171,277 - $168,586).

MarketWatch Tuesday 3/6/12 4:13 pm by Laura Mandaro says U.S. stocks dove Tuesday, suffering their worst one-day loss this year, as fears of an abrupt, damaging Greek debt default resurfaced amid speculation Greek bondholders would avoid a planned debt restructuring. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA -1.57% fell 203.66 points, or 1.6%, to 12,759.15, its first loss of more than 200 points since November 23. The S&P 500 SPX -1.54% lost 20.97 points, or 1.5%, to 1,343.36, led by 2% declines in financials and industrial stocks. The Nasdaq omposite COMP -1.36% lost 40.16 points, or 1.4%, to 2,910.32. "Investors are paying a little more attention to the risk side of the market now that the market has made a nice move off its [October] lows," said Stuart Freeman, chief equity strategist at Wells Fargo Advisors.
