No. 1,694 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 Monday at 12,502.66 down 138.12 or 1.09% from Friday's close of 12,640.78. Of the 30 Dow components only Walmart gained and 29 declined. The only and therefore biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Walmart up $1.88 or 1.31%%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Caterpillar down $2.07 and percentage-wise was Bank of America down 4.28%.
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 13.94 up from Friday's trailing P/E ratio of 13.85 (year ago it was 13.58); Monday's P/E estimate is 12.15 up from Friday's P/E estimate of 12.05 (year ago it was 12.20) and Monday's dividend yield is 2.64 down from Friday's dividend yield of 2.65 (last year it was 2.51). 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.
Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,651.97 down 18.25 from Friday's closing numerator of 1,670.22. 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 Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $55.07 down $0.60 from Friday's average closing price of $55.67. The median closing price of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $50.41 (HD/DD) down 0.08 from Friday's median closing price of $50.49. The lowest volume was Travelers and the highest volume again was Bank of America.
If Monday 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 $1,825 ($167,022 - $165,197).
MarketWatch Mon. 4:35 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks declined Monday, denting June gains with four sessions in the month remaining, as pessimism rose about the outcome of a meeting of European leaders this week.“Unfortunately as we vacillate between cynicism and optimism about European leaders getting anything done, cynicism seems to be ruling the day,” said Art Hogan, market strategist at Lazard Capital Markets.The best and brightest have been drawn to Wall Street for the past thirty years, but no longer. MarketWatch reporter Steven Gelsi joins Mean Street to explain why the glory of Wall Street is gone, and which sectors could seize the mantle next. Photo: Reuters.

Cyprus said it would ask for financial aid, and Greece’s finance
minister reportedly resigned his position Monday, just four days after
being named to the job and three days after being hospitalized for
nausea and dizziness. And Greek Prime Minister Antonis Samaras will miss
the coming European Union summit as he recuperates from eye surgery. “Once again front and center is Europe. So far, again there is a lot of
politics, with a fairly wide crevice between what Germany is willing to
do versus what others are calling for,” said Mark Luschini, chief
investment strategist at Janney Montgomery Scott in San Francisco.And, Spain formally asked for help for its banking system, but the
request left unclear how much of the $125 billion loan packaged by other
European nations was actually needed.The Dow Jones Industrial Average

“Housing is a sign of strength here on the domestic front, which is
something that should not be lost on investors, although domestic news
will unfortunately probably be trumped by Europe,” said Luschini.New-home sales rose 7.6% in May.A Supreme Court ruling on 2010’s Affordable Care Act is now expected Thursday.“Any of the credible outcomes will be market moving.If it’s upheld, it
removes the overhang of the unknown, and a lot of health-care companies
will probably celebrate that,” said Lazard’s Hogan.“If it’s struck down, then the overall market probably celebrates
because it’s a lean in the direction of less regulation, although not
great for health-care companies and service providers. If the individual
mandate is dropped and the rest kept, again the hospital and insurance
companies would lose,” he said.“It could be a big deal, predicated on which way it breaks. I don’t know
that if the Supreme Court comes down on the side of its legality [that]
is going to put the market off, but I do think its repeal could be a
boost to equities,” said Luschini, who explains the former would be
continuing the status quo, while the latter would be seen as “some
relief on the regulatory front.”Another market observer predicted that health-care stocks could get a
boost from the ruling regardless of what the justices decide.The dollar

The following are excerpts from Monday morning's Blog:
A read of the print editions of Monday's Barron's, Wall St. Journal &, Financial Times, Investor's Business Daily, New York Times & USA Today, Atlanta Journal Constitution & 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 a separate table of Dow component's symbol and Friday's stock prices and related data in alphabetical order.
Dow Jones Average The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Friday at 12,640.78 up 67.21 or 0.53% from Thursday's close of 12,573.57. For the week the Dow was down 126.35 or 0.99% from last Friday's close of 12,767.13. For the year the Dow is up 3.46%. Of the 30 Dow components 28 gained and 2 (Caterpillar and Walmart) declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Travelers up 75 cents and percentage-wise was Microsoft up 1.87 %. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Walmart down 40 cents or 0.59%.
Inv. Bus. Daily pB6 "Stocks hang tough after Thursday's sharp decline" by Paul Whitfield says stocks rebounded from Thursday's nasty drojp, but lower volume throughout most of the session suggested the big money wasn't rushing to buy. Friday's action was up as rebalancing of the russell indexes boosted volume. The current outlook is uptrend under pressure.
Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,670.22 up 8.88 from Thursday's closing numerator of 1,661.34. 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 $55.67 up $0.29 from Thursday's average closing price of $55.38. The median closing price of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $50.49 (HD/DD) up 0.10 from Thursday's median closing price of $50.39. The lowest volume was Travelers 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 $888 ($167,022 - $166,134).
MarketWatch Fri. 4:13 pm by Myra P. Saefong Gibson says U.S. stocks finished higher Friday, recouping a portion of the hefty losses they saw in the previous session as investors cheered news that the European Central Bank would take further steps to ease loan collateral for banks. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA+0.53% rose 67 points, or 0.5%, to close at 12,640.86, but fell 1% for the week, while the S&P 500 SPX+0.72% added 10 points, or 0.7%, to 1,335.02, losing 0.6% for the week. The Nasdaq Composite COMP+1.17% rose 33 points, or 1.2%, to 2,892.42, ending the week 0.7% higher. The gains helped lift the Nasdaq back into the black for the week, but the Dow industrials and S&P 500 fell from last Friday's close. The market rallied "on short covering from the selloff from [Federal Reserve Chairman Ben] Bernanke's disappointing game of 'Twister' instead of a full blown QE3, some relief that the bank downgrades didn't spell out disaster and news from Europe that it is loosening their collateral requirements," said Keith Springer, president of Springer Financial Advisors.
