A read of the print editions of Monday's Barron's, Investor's Business Daily, Sat/Sun combined issues of each of the Wall St. Journal & Financial Times, & Sunday's & 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 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 13,157.97 up 100.51 or 0.77% from Thursday's close of 13,057.46. For the week the Dow is down 117.23 or 0.88% from last Friday's close of 13,275.2. For the year the Dow is up 7.70%. Of the 30 Dow components 23 gained, Bank of America was unchanged and 6 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was IBM up $1.76 and percentage-wise was Verizon up 2.18%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Caterpillar down 34 cents and percentage-wise was 0.48%.
Inv. Bus. Daily pB6 "Stocks stay in calm mode, keep weekly losses small" by Paul Whitfield says stocks completed the week on a calm note Fri as the indexes tacked on modest gains. IBM rose 2%.
Sat. WSJ pB4 "Dow snaps its losing streak" by Chris Dieterich says the Dow banked its frist triple digit gain in 3 weeks on hopes that the Fed stands ready to bolster growth. Telecomm,s healthcare & consumer discretionary stocks were the S&P's best performers. Verizon led the Dow up 92 cents. Kraft was up 59 cents.
Fin Times p11 "Autodesk feels the pain as macro woes take their toll" by Kandy Wong says US equities rebounded into positive territory Fri. The Dow lost 0.9% for the week. PC makers were in focus. Dell and Hewlett-Packardard fell sharply after reporting poor quarterly results. Defensive telecom stocks moved down. AT&T dropped 0.6% and Verizon was down 2%.
NYT pB6 "Shares rise on hopes for further Fed action" by Bloomberg says stocks rose Fri, paring the first weekly decline in almost 2 months for the S&P as the Fed Chair Bernanke said he saw scope for further action increasing speculation that the central bank would act to stimulate economic growth.
As of the close of the market on Friday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page B5 of Saturday's Wall St. Journal is 0.12914682. Saturday's trailing P/E ratio is 14.60 up from Friday's trailing P/E ratio of 14.49 (year ago it was 12.59); Saturday's P/E estimate is 12.52 down from Friday's P/E estimate of 12.64 (year ago it was 11.23) and Saturday's dividend yield is 2.59 down from Friday's dividend yield of 2.61 (last year it was 2.71). 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 1,699.30 up 12.98 from Thursday's closing numerator of 1,686.32. 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 (0.12914682) you get the increase in today's Dow .Each dollar increase in the Dow increases the Dow Jones Industrial Averageby 7.74.
The average closing price (the closing numerator divided by 30) of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $56.64 up $3.24 cents from Thursday's average closing price of $53.40. The median closing price of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $53.61 (HD/DD) up 21 cents from Thursday's median closing price of $53.40 (HD/DD). 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 $1,298 ($169,930 - $168,632).
MarketWatch.com Fri. 3:56 pm by Kate Gibson says US stocks tallied strong gains Friday, with the Dow industrials bouncing back following a four-session slide, after Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke said the U.S. central bank has more tools, if needed, to stimulate the economy.
The end-of-week push higher “doesn’t represent much that you can sink your teeth into,” said Mark Luschini, chief investment strategist at Janney Montgomery Scott.
“Volume is light and most people are probably headed to the Hamptons,” said Luschini, adding that Wall Street will “come back and see what Europe has to say” after the Labor Day holiday on Sept. 3.
The final week of summer trading has Bernanke scheduled to speak at an annual gathering in Jackson Hole, Wyo., next Friday, with the Fed chairman followed by European Central Bank President Mario Draghi the following day.
“Best case, Bernanke will say, ‘Here’s our tools, but we don’t need to use them, and by the way, Congress better get its act together’,” said Art Hogan, strategist at Lazard Capital Markets, of the Fed chairman’s repeated calls on lawmakers to move on fiscal policy.
In position for its first weekly decline in seven, the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose as much as 104 points and was lately ahead by 93.93 points, or 0.7%, at 13,151.39, in position for a 0.7% weekly loss.
Off 0.6% from the week-ago close, the S&P 500 SPX+0.65% gained 8.70 points, or 0.6%, to 1,410.78, with telecom the best performing and the natural-resource sector the sole laggard of its 10 industry groups.
The Nasdaq Composite COMP+0.54% rose 17.15 points, or 0.6%, to 3,070.55, a level that leaves it 0.2% lower on the week.
For every five stocks declining eight rose on the New York Stock Exchange, where 351 million shares traded as of 3:40 p.m. Eastern. Composite volume topped 2.1 billion.
Treasury prices mostly fell, with the yield on the 10-year note /10_YEAR+0.42% at 1.681%. The dollar DXY+0.33% gained against other global currencies, including the euro EURUSD-0.4537%.
Gold futures GCZ2-0.07% added 10 cents to finish at a more than four-month high of $1,672.90 an ounce. OilCLV2-0.34% fell 0.1% to $96.15 a barrel.On Friday, the government reported orders for U.S. durable goods rose 4.2% in July on increased demand for airplanes and automobiles, but bookings softened in other sectors.
“The U.S. is taxiing forward slowly. The numbers this morning were good, particularly capital-goods shipments outside the defense sector,” said David Kelly, chief market strategist at J.P. Morgan Funds.
In a letter released Friday, Bernanke said the Fed has the means to take further steps to bolster the economy.
Is a correction looming?
Worries about slowing global growth and that the Fed has run out of bullets to jump-start the economy have been the main culprits for the Dow’s recent decline.German Chancellor Angela Merkel and Greek Prime Minister Antonis Samaras held talks, with both reportedly saying they want Greece to remain in the euro zone, and Merkel saying Germany expects Greece “to stick to its commitments.” .
“They’ll give him time, but not more money, which is what he really needs,” said Kelly of Samaras’ request for more time to reach fiscal goals.
The European Central Bank is considering a plan to set band targets for yields in the euro zone under a new bond-buying program, Reuters reported Friday, citing unidentified central bank officials.
