Post No. 1,584 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 as of April 15, 2012.

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 12,964.1 down 68.65 or 0.53% from Wednesday's close of 13,032.75. For the year the Dow is up 6.11%. Of the 30 Dow components 3 gained and 27 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Travelers. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was McDonald's.

WSJ pC4 "Poor data help damp Dow" by Matt Jarzemsky says stocks fell after a trio of disappointing economic readings overshadowed better than expected earnings reports from Travelers and other firms. Only 3 of the Dow components rose as Travelers gained $2.23, Verizon rose 49 cents after both reported 1Q results that beat projections and GE gained 4 cents ahead of its results Fri.

Fin Times p22 "Ebay on 52 week high but weak job figures weigh on sentiment" by Arash Massoudi says Ebay soared to a 52 week high as it's plans to lead the mobile payments race encouraged investors, but another weak jobs report added to Wall St woes yesterday. Bank of America which has risen more than 60% in the year lost 1.8% as it reported lower earnings.

NYT pB6 "Signs of weakness send shares down again" by Reuters says stocks fell for a 2nd day on Thurs as labor market data showed more signs of weakness, while a warning from Qualcomm & poor results from Stanley Black & Decker discouraged investors. Bank of America fell 1.7%. After the close Microsoft reported a slight drop in 3Q profits.

Inv. Bus. Daily pA1 "Stocks reverse lower in rising volume" by Paul Whitfield says after rising in the first 75 minutes of trading, the major indexes reversed to finish with moderate losses. The current outlook is the market is in a correction. Apple lost 3% on reports that iPhone activations fell at Verizon.

USA Today p4B "Economic reports, Europe again bring markets down" by Bloomberg says stocks retreated a 2nd day Thurs as disappointing economic data & concern about Europe's debt crisis overshadowed better than forecast earnings from firms including eBay and Morgan Stanley.

As of the open of the market on 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 14.49 down from yesterday's trailing P/E ratio of 14.58 (year ago it was 14.99); today's P/E estimate is 12.55 unchanged from Tuesday's P/E estimate of 12.55 (year ago it was 12.65) and today's dividend yield is 2.53 up from yesterday's dividend yield of 2.51 (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 1,712.94 down 9.07 from Wednesday's closing numerator of 1,722.01. 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 $57.10 down $0.30 from Wednesday's average closing price of $57.40. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $52.09 (DD/HD) down $0.45 from Wednesday's median closing price of $52.54. The lowest volume was 3M and the highest volume again was Bank of America.

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 lost $907 ($172,201 - $171,294).

MarketWatch Thursday 4/19/12 4:15 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks fell for a second day Thursday, pushing the Nasdaq Composite COMP -0.79% into the loss column for the week, as uncertainty over Europe and disappointing jobless claims overcame cheer over corporate results. "At this stage, this is just a symptom and not a disease," said Laurence Creatura, porfolio manager at Federated Investors, of the weekly data on applications for unemployment benefits. "But this afternoon investors aren't giving the market the benefit of the doubt." The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA -0.53% shed 68.65 points, or 0.5%, to 12,964.10. The S&P 500 SPX -0.59% fell 8.22 points, or 0.6%, to 1,376.92. The Nasdaq Composite COMP -0.79% lost 23.89 points, or 0.8%, to 3,007.56
