The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Monday at 13,515.11 up 77.98 or 0.58 % from Friday's close of 13,437.13. Of the Dow components 26 gained and 4 declined . The biggest gainer dollar-wise was IBM up $3.02 and percentage-wise was UnitedHealthcare Group up 1.89 %. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Caterpillar down 57 cents and percentage-wise was Microsoft down 0.91%.
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 0.130216081. Monday's trailing P/E ratio is 14.64 down from Saturday's trailing P/E ratio of 14.69 (year ago it was 12.17); Monday's P/E estimate is 12.75 down from Saturday's P/E estimate of 12.95 (year ago it was 11.15) and Monday's dividend yield is 2.51 up from Saturday's dividend yield of 2.50 (last year it was 2.82). 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 1,759.88 up 10.15 from Friday's closing numerator of 1,749.73. 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 (0.130216081) you get the increase in today's Dow. A dollar increase or decrease in a Dow stock results in a $7.68 change in the Dow Index.
The average closing price (the closing numerator divided by 30) of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $58.66 up 34 cents from Friday's closing numerator of $58.32. The median closing price of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $54.27 (DIS/UNH) up 32 cents from Friday's median closing price of $53.85 (DIS/UNH). 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 or dividends) and sold at the close you would havemade $1,015 ($175,988 - $174,973).
MarketWatch.com Mon. 10/1/12 4:53 pm by Myra Saefong & Polya Lesova says US stocks finished mostly higher Monday, after data showing activity in the U.S. manufacturing sector rose to its highest level in four months, but closed off session highs as traders reacted to Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke’s comments on monetary policy. The Nasdaq Composite fell for a second-straight session as most technology stocks gave up early gains. Pimco's head of global equities Neel Kashkari says slowing global economic growth points investors toward shares of industry leaders. He talks about three stocks to consider now. “I don’t see a lot of conviction or breadth” in U.S. equities trading, said Matthew Tuttle, chief investment officer at Tuttle Wealth Management LLC. “I would be a little concerned about [Tuesday] barring any new good news out of somewhere before we open.”
The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA +0.58% closed up 77.98 points, or 0.6%, at 13,515.11, with all but four of the index’s 30 components finishing higher. It added to gains immediately after the ISM data, rising as much 161 points, but the blue-chip benchmark gave up much of that rise following a speech by Bernanke in Indianapolis, after which he took audience questions.
Shares of UnitedHealth Group Inc.UNH +1.89% , up 1.9%, and American Express Co. AXP +1.53% , up 1.5%, led the Dow’s gainers. “The ISM giveth, and Bernanke taketh away,” said Michael Gayed, co-portfolio manager of the ATAC Inflation Rotation Fund ATACX -0.64% . “Looks like the testimony effectively is a game of hot potato, as [Bernanke] argues that the fiscal side has to get more proactive to help push the economy forward. Defending QE while attacking inert fiscal policies seems to be the order of the day.” The S&P 500 index SPX +0.27% gained 3.82 points, or 0.3%, to 1,444.49. The consumer staples and health-care sectors led the advance on the index. The Nasdaq Composite COMP -0.09% closed modestly lower, down 2.70 points, or 0.1%, at 3,113.53, after having hit a session high of 3,146.99. Shares of Apple Inc. AAPL -1.16% , the index’s biggest component, fell 1.2%. Seasonal factors provided some support to equities Monday. The “first day of the month tends to be pretty powerful as people pour money into 401(k)s,” and money managers are “getting crushed by their benchmarks so they are being forced into a ‘risk on’ position,” said Tuttle. In his speech to the Economic Club of Indiana, Bernanke attempted to answer some of the fierce criticism and public unease facing the Fed’s third round of bond purchases, known as QE3.
Bernanke tried to demystify the purchases, saying the basic monetary-policy strategy “is the same as it has always been.” “The difference is that, with short-term interest rates nearly at zero, we have shifted to tools aimed at reducing longer-term interest rates more directly,” he said.
Charles Plosser, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia, said last week that the Fed’s third round of quantitative easing, announced last month, is unlikely to result in much benefit for growth or employment. The comments poured cold water on the idea that Bernanke has built a broad consensus among his Fed colleagues. “You had a lot of excitement about QE infinity until Fed President Plosser took some air out of the sails,” said Art Hogan, equity strategist at Lazard Capital Markets in New York. Chicago Fed President Charles Evans on Monday said the latest decision to buy more bonds is a “step in the right direction.” Contributing to the market’s rally earlier Monday, the Institute for Supply Management said its manufacturing gauge rose to 51.5 last month from 49.6 in August, the highest reading since May. Economists polled by MarketWatch expected the index to come in at 49.7.“It looks like the strong ISM beat didn’t mean very much given the substantial intraday pullback in equities, most notable in small-cap stocks,” said Gayed. “We may be in the early stages of a minor correction unless improvement in terms of intermarket trends occurs fast.”
Also Monday, the Commerce Department reported that construction spending fell 0.6% in August, well below analysts’ expectations of a 0.5% gain. The rebound in the ISM manufacturing index “will boost hopes that some of the recent slowdown in economic growth was just a summer phenomenon,” said Paul Dales, senior U.S. economist at Capital Economics, in a note. An ISM figure above 50 indicates expansion, while a figure below 50 indicates contraction. “But while GDP growth may accelerate a bit, a major improvement is not on the cards,” he said, adding that the headline index is still consistent with annualized growth in gross domestic product of no more than 1.5% to 2%. “The weak global economy and growing concerns over the domestic fiscal cliff will prevent a major rebound in U.S. economic growth.” Wall Street found support early on in the session from strength in European markets. The pan-European Stoxx 600 indexXX:SXXP +1.43% gained 1.4%.Advancers edged ahead of decliners on the New York Stock Exchange Monday, where 672 million shares traded. Composite volume topped 3.4 billion. In other trading, goldGCZ2 +0.23% and oilCLX2 +0.16% futures advanced, while the dollar DXY -0.09% fell against most other major currencies. The euro EURUSD +0.0037% rose 0.3% to $1.2890. The S&P 500 index is up 15% year to date, after ending the third quarter with a gain of 5.8%.

Frisday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,749.73 down 6.36 from Thursday's closing numerator of 1,756.09. 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 (0.130216081) you get the decrease in today's Dow. A dollar increase or decrease in a Dow stock results in a $7.68 change in the Dow Index.
The average closing price (the closing numerator divided by 30) of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $58.32 down 22 cents from Thursday's closing numerator of $58.54.

MarketWatch.com Fri. 9/28/12 4:15 pm by Kate Gibson says US stocks fell Friday as an unexpected contraction in a gauge of business activity in the Midwest had Wall Street cutting still-sizeable third quarter and September gains. "We had a heck of a good quarter and month for stocks beyond what anyone thought," said Stuart Hoffman, chief economist at PNC Financial Services Group. "Now we're having a step backward as some of the QE3-inspired gains dissipate." The Dow Jones Industrial AverageDJIA-0.36%declined 48.84 points, or 0.4%, to 13,437.13, up 4.3% for the third quarter and 2.7% for the month. The S&P 500 SPX-0.45%declined 6.48 points, or 0.5%, to 1,440.67, up 5.8% for the quarter and 2.4% for September. The Nasdaq Composite COMP-0.65% lost 20.37 points, or 0.7%, to 3,116.23, leaving it up 6.2% for the quarter and 1.6% for September.
