Post No. 1,588 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 Monday's Barron's and Investor's Business Daily, Sat. & Sunday's combined issue of each of theWall St. Journal and Financial Times, and Saturday's New York Times & Atlanta Journal Constitution 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 Friday's stock prices and related data.
Dow Jones Industrial AverageThe Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Friday at 13,029.26 up 65.16 or 0.05% from Thursday's close of 12,964.1. For the week the Dow is up 65.16 or 0.05% from last Friday's close of 12,849.59. For the year the Dow is up 6.64%. Of the 30 Dow components 23 gained and 7 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Travelers and percentage-wise was Microsoft. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was JPMorgan and percentage-wise was Bank of America.
Inv. Bus. Daily pA1 "Stocks in giveback mode; Apple now 11% off high" by Paul Whitfield says for the 2nd straight day, stocks rose in the first hour and then headed sourth. Friday's action was reverses off early gains in mixed volume as the current outlook is the market is in a correction.
As of the open of the market on Monday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of Monday's Wall St. Journal is 0.132129493. Monday's trailing P/E ratio is 14.55 up from Friday's trailing P/E ratio of 14.49 (year ago it was 14.70); Monday's P/E estimate is 12.32 down from Friday's P/E estimate of 12.55 (year ago it was 12.65) and Monday's dividend yield is 2.54 up from Friday's dividend yield of 2.53 (last year it was 2.35). 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 1,721.54 up 8.50 from Thursday's closing numerator of 1,712.94. 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 Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $57.38 up $0.28 from Thursday's average closing price of $57.10. The median closing price of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $52.04 (DD/HD) down $0.05 from Thursday's median closing price of $52.09. The lowest volume was 3M and the highest volume again was Bank of America.
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 made $850 ($172,154 - $171,294).
MarketWatch Friday 4/20/12 4:45 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks mostly advanced Friday, with two of the major indexes halting a two-week losing streak, as better-than-expected corporate results overrode global concerns. “A lot of stock prices are being made in Europe these days, but it is a short-term phenomenon. Even though the economies are weak, they seem to be doing what they should be doing, and that sort of behavior tends to be rewarded,” said John Manley, chief equity strategist at Wells Fargo Advantage Funds. “The market is coming to grips with what lies before it. On balance, earnings numbers are more positive than negative,” he added. After rising as much as 118 points, the Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA +0.50% gained 65.16 points, or 0.5%, to 13,029.26, up 1.4% from the week-ago close and its first weekly gain in three. Microsoft Corp. MSFT +4.55% led blue-chip advancers, up 4.6%, after the software company said net income fell from the year-ago period, but its profit and sales topped Wall Street’s expectations. Dow component General Electric Co. GE +1.15% rose 1.2% after the aircraft-engine manufacturer and financial-services provider reported earnings that topped Wall Street’s estimates. Up 0.7% on the week, the S&P 500 Index SPX +0.12% climbed 1.61 points, or 0.1%, to 1,378.53, with utilities and consumer staples leading sector gains and technology and financials lagging among its 10 industry groups. Apple Inc. AAPL -2.46% shares fell 2.5% to $572.98, off more than 10% from $644, the record intraday high reached April 10. The close under $580 sets the stage “for a fast move down to $525,” said Richard Ross, technical strategist at Auerbach Grayson & Co. Apple’s fall weighed on the Nasdaq Composite Index COMP -0.24% , which turned lower in the final hour of trade, off 7.11 points, or 0.2%, at 3,000.45 — a level that has it off 0.2% from last Friday’s finish and extending its weekly losing spree to three. For every stock that fell, nearly two gained on the New York Stock Exchange, where 966 million shares traded. Composite volume topped 3.8 billion. The U.S. dollar DXY -0.52% fell against other global currencies, while dollar-denominated commodities rose, with crude futures CLM2 +1.28% closing a nickel above $103 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. But while micro concerns dominated Friday’s session, macroeconomic issues will likely continue to be in play. “The realization has grown that all of the problems of last year are still present,” said Andrew Milligan, head of global strategy at Standard Life Investments. Milligan cites the outlook for the United States, Europe’s ability to keep its recession from deepening, China’s ability to navigate a soft landing and the price of oil as the four primary concerns of investors. “We’re particularly reassured by the breadth of sectors seeing improvements; it’s not just industrial and tech, but most sectors,” he added. Corporate results from outside the United States are “perhaps more mixed, which is no great surprise, bearing in mind some of the weakness in parts of Asia and Europe,” Milligan said. For Manley at Wells Fargo Advantage Funds, the real test for U.S. results comes in the third quarter. “If you look at consensus expectations for the S&P 500, the first quarter was a little better than flat, not a high hurdle,” with the same holding true for second-quarter results, he said. But by the third quarter, expectations call for double-digit gains “and I don’t think we’ll get that,” commented Manley, who believes those estimates will be scaled back over the course of the next three to six months.
