Inv. Bus. Daily pB6 "Stocks keep to tight range in wake of heft gains" by Paul Whitfield says stocks turned in a next to nothing performance Fri on the Nasdaq barely budging from a tight trading range. The other indexes showed better gains, mostly due to commodity related strength. The current outlook is a confirmed uptrend as Friday's aciton was mixed in lower vol.
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 14.74 up from Friday's trailing P/E ratio of 14.73 (year ago it was 12.26); Sat's P/E estimate is 12.55 up from Friday's P/E estimate of 12.42 (year ago it was 11.50) and Saturday's dividend yield is 2.57 unchanged from Friday's dividend yield of 2.57 (last year it was 2.79). 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 1,718.50 up 17.89 from Thursday's closing numerator of 1,716.61. 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 Average by 7.74.
The average closing price (the closing numerator divided by 30) of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $57.28 up 6 cents from Thursday's average closing price of $57.22. The median closing price of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $54.50 (HD/DIS) down 26 cents from Thursday's median closing price of $54.76 (HD/DIS). 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 $1,789 ($171,850 - $171,661).
Market Watch 9/7/12 Fri. 4:19 pm by Myra P. Saefond says US stocks finished higher Friday, with the benchmark indexes posting gains for the week and closing at their highest levels in years after August jobs data raised the prospects for another round of monetary stimulus by the Federal Reserve. The Dow industrials DJIA +0.11% closed up 14.64 points, or 0.1%, at 13,306.64, its highest since Dec. 2007. The Nasdaq Composite COMP +0.02% edged up by 0.6 point to 3,136.42, its highest since Nov. 2000, and the S&P 500 SPX +0.40% ended 5.8 points, or 0.4%, higher at 1,437.92, its highest since Jan. 2008. "While it looks like stocks didn't move all that much, underneath the averages there is a lot of bullish price action under way," said Michael Gayed, chief investment strategist at Pension Partners LLC. "High beta small-cap stocks continue to meaningfully outperform, the [CBOE Market Volatility Index] continues to price poorly, and defensive sectors, which money flees to in times of fear, are collapsing," he said. "Fear over a 2008 repeat is now turning into fear of global monetary shock and awe, and the potential inflationary aspects of it."
