The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Wed at 13,096.46 down 10.75 or 0.08% from Friday's close of 13,107.21. The US stock market was closed Mon. and Tues. due to Hurricane Sandy. Of the Dow components 11 gained, AT&T was unchanged and 18 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Home Depot up $1.38 and percentage-wise was Bank of America up 2.36%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Disney down 97 cents or 1.94%.
As of the open of the market on Wednesday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C6 of yesterday's Wall St. Journal is 0.130216081. Today's trailing P/E ratio is 13.95 up from Friday's trailing P/E ratio of 13.94 (year ago it was 13.20); today's P/E estimate is 12.35 down from Friday's P/E estimate of 12.59 (year ago it was 12.59) and today's dividend yield is 2.59 unchanged from Friday's dividend yield of 2.59 (last year it was 2.53). 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.
Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,705.37 down 1.40 from Friday's closing numerator of 1,706.77. 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 Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $56.85 down 4 cents from Friday's average of $56.89. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $52.57 (DIS/UNH) down 36 cents from Friday's median closing price of 52.93. The lowest volume was 3M 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 or dividends) and sold at the close you would have lost $140 ($170,677 - $170,537).
10/31/12 Wed. 3:37 MarketWatch by Myra P. Saefong says U.S. stocks wavered Wednesday, with benchmark indexes teasing the flatline ahead of the close, as a post-Hurricane Sandy jump in Home Depot Inc.’s stock provided some support for the Dow industrials, but Facebook Inc. shares weighing down the Nasdaq Composite Index. The markets are “smashing together three days of trading into one as it digests both good and bad earnings announcements,” said Keith Springer, president of Springer Financial Advisors in Sacramento, Calif. President Barack Obama and Congress have put the U.S. on course to go over a so-called fiscal cliff. David Wessel tells you everything you need to know but were afraid to ask. Sandy had prompted a two-day shutdown of the New York Stock Exchange, with New York City and the East Coast hit hard by the storm on Monday evening. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA -0.08% added 3 points at 13,110.63, after trading as high as 13,189.08. It’s around 2.4% lower for the month. Trading had started on a “positive note with equities headed higher, likely due to the positive news out of Europe and the reaction to some recent earnings reports out of the likes of Ford, GM and BP,” said Ryan Wibberley, president and founder of CIC Wealth Management Group. Home Depot HD +2.23% shares climbed 2.5% — ranked as the top gainer in the blue-chip benchmark. Insurance firm Travelers Cos. TRV -0.87% shares fell 0.8%. “Stocks in the housing/construction/industrial sectors, like Home Depot, Lowe’s Cos. LOW +3.25% , [and] Owens Corning OC +6.84% are on the rise because these companies will likely benefit from the rebuilding that will follow in the Northeast after Hurricane Sandy,” added Wibberley. But insurance companies saw pressure “as market participants try to sort out how much of an earnings hit these companies will take in the fourth quarter, due to the massive destruction in the New York/New Jersey area,” he wrote in emailed comments. General Motors Co.GM +9.54% shares rose 10% after the company posted third-quarter earnings per share of 93 cents that were better than expected, excluding one-time items. Ford Motor Co.’s F +8.24% stock added 8%. The company reported healthy third-quarter profit margins Tuesday, when the stock market was closed. Down about 1.9% for the month, the S&P 500 Index SPX +0.02% rose 1.1 point, or 0.1%, at 1,413.20, with health-care and information technology falling the most and utilities the best performing among its 10 sectors. The Nasdaq COMP -0.36% fell 10.25 points, or 0.3%, at 2,977.70, trading 4.5% lower for the month to date. Shares of Facebook FB -3.79% fell 4.2% as the post-IPO lockup on about 229 million shares expired, making them available to the open market. /AAPL 594.80, -0.52, -0.09%
