Post No. 1,688 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 recent ranking of the Dow 30 components by market capitalization as of 6/20/12 and Dow 30 components' SEC filings as of 6/20/12.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Thursday at 12,573.57 down 250.82 or 1.96% from Wednesday's close of 12,824.39. Of the 30 Dow components only Merck gained and 29 declined. The only and therefore biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Merck up 21 cents or 0.54%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Chevron down $3.75 or 4.25%.
As of the open of the market on 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 14.13 down from yesterday's trailing P/E ratio of 14.15 (year ago it was 13.87); today's P/E estimate is 12.05 unchanged from Wednesday's P/E estimate of 12.05 (year ago it was 12.15) and today's dividend yield is 2.60 unchanged from yesterday's dividend yield of 2.60 (last year it was 2.48). 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 1,661.34 down 33.14 from Wednesday's closing numerator of 1,694.48. 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 $55.38 down $1.10 from Wednesday's average closing price of $56.48. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $50.39 (HD/DD) down 1.53 from Wednesday's median closing price of $51.92. The lowest volume was Travelers 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 $3,314 ($169,448 - $166,134).
MarketWatch Thurs. 4:10 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks fell sharply Thursday, with equities taking their second-hardest hit of the year after U.S. economic data largely disappointed, increasing worry about a global slowdown. Other economic reports had euro-area manufacturing slowing and a gauge of Chinese output also contracting. "We're entering summer, in politics this used to be called the 'silly season,' but I don't think there is a lot of focus on economic fundamentals right now. Some of the economic data is a little on the weak side, but to me the most important thing is the U.S. economy is not very vulnerable to recession right now," said David Kelly, chief market strategist at J.P. Morgan Funds. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA -1.96% fell 250.82 points, or 2%, to 12,573.57. The S&P 500 SPX -2.23% lost 30.18 points, or 2.2%, to 1,325.51. The Nasdaq Composite COMP -2.44% retreated 71.36 points, or 2.4%, to 2,859.09.

The following are excerpts from Thursday 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 & Daily Report (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 a separate table of Dow component's symbol and Wednesday's stock prices and related data in alphabetical order.
Dow Jones Average The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Wednesday at 12,824.39 down 12.94 or 0.1% from Tuesday's close of 12,837.33. For the year the Dow is up 4.79%. Of the 30 Dow components 15 gained and15 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was JPMorgan up $1.03 or 2.91%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Procter & Gamble down $1.82 or 2.93%.
WSJ pC4 "Stocks seesaw and land flat" by Jonathan Cheng says US stocks finished a volatile day roughly where they started as investors balanced positive developments in Europe vs. disappointment that the Fed held off on more aggressive action to juice the economy. Leading the decline in consumer staple stocks were Procter & Gamble down $1.82 after it lowered its outlook. P&G is charted under Bad News. JPMorgan rose $1.02.
USA Today p4B "Fed's caution note takes breeze out of market's sails" by Bloomberg says stocks paused Wed following a 4 session rally in the S&P as the Fed cut its estimates for growth amid a slowdown in hiring.
Inv. Bus. Daily pB2 "Major indexes cut losses as Fed extends its twist" by David Saito-Chung says the major indexes held their ground Wed defending recent gains amid a highly anticipated Fed Res announcement that largely revealed no major shift in monetary policy. Wed's action was it closed flat in lower volume while the current outlook is a confirmed uptrend.
NYT pB7 "Wall St dips slightly on Fed decision" by Christine Hauser says Wall St gave a tepid response on Wed to the Fed's decision to extend a program intended to drive down long term interest rates.
Fin Times p24 "Procter & Gamble slips on cut to earnings & rev forecast" by Anora Mahmudova says shares in Procter & Gamble the world's largest consumer good maker by sales slid 3.3% after it cut its earnings and rev forecast for the 2nd time in 3 months. Overall, US equity markets saw a volatile trading session as the main indices opened lower & fell to intraday lows immediately aftter the Fed said it would extend through to the end of the year its bond purchasing program Operation Twisht which disappointed investors who wanted a moe robust stimulus such as QE3.
Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,694.48 down 1.71 from Tuesday's closing numerator of 1,696.19. 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 $56.48 down $0.06 from Tuesday's average closing price of $56.54.

The lowest volume was Travelers and the highest volume again was Bank of America.
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 $171 ($169,619 - 1$169,448).
MarketWatch Wed.. 4:13 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks ended mostly lower on Wednesday, with the S&P 500 halting its longest winning run since late May, after the Federal Reserve cut its economic growth estimates and Chairman Ben Bernanke said the jobs market had lost some steam. "If we're not seeing sustained improvement in the labor market that would require additional action," Bernanke told reporters at a news conference after the Fed said it would expand its bond-buying program through the end of the year. "Extending Operation Twist beyond the election was a smart move. He can lean on Congress and the White House to address fiscal issues sooner rather than later," said Ryan Sweet, senior economist at Moody's Analytics. The Dow Jones Industrial AverageDJIA-0.10% fell 12.94 points, or 0.1%, to 12,824.39. Ending a four-session streak of gains, the S&P 500 SPX-0.17% lost 2.29 points, or 0.2%, to 1,355.69. Extending its rise into a fifth session, the Nasdaq Composite COMP+0.02% rose 0.7 point to 2,930.45.
