Post No. 2,014 The following is brougt to you by Intellivest Securities Research, Inc. Toward the end of this Blog is a list of the Dow 30 current CEOs, and a ranking of the Dow 30 components by market capitalization as of 1/1/13 and recent Dow 30 components' SEC filings as of 1/1/13.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Wednesday at 13,7779.17 up 66.96 or 0.49% from Tuesday's close of 13,712.13. Of the Dow components 12 gained and 18 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was IBM up $8.75 or 4.46%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Caterpillar down 92 cents and percentage-wise was Hewlett-Packard down 1.54%.
As of the open of the market on Wednesday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C5 of Wednesday's Wall St. Journal is 0.130216081. Wednesday's trailing P/E ratio is 15.17 up from yesterday's trailing P/E ratio of 15.12 (year ago it was 13.68); today's P/E estimate is 12.28 unchanged from Tuesday' s P/E estimate of 12.28 (year ago it was 12.05) and today's dividend yield is 2.54 down from yesterday's opening dividend yield of 2.61 (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 1,794.27 up 8.93 from Tuesday's closing numerator of 1,785.54. 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 Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $59.81 up 29 cents from Tuesday's average of $59.52. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $54.91 (DIS/UNH) up 55 cents from Tuesday's median closing price of $54.36. The lowest volume was Travelers 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 made $893 ($179,427 - $178,554).
Wednesday MarketWatch 1/23/13 4:09 pm by Kate Gibson says US stocks rose Wednesday as lawmakers voted to extend the nation's borrowing limit and as Apple Inc. AAPL +0.44% gained as investors anticipated the iPhone maker's results after the close. Apple "does cast a very long shadow, and one that has critical implications for other businesses too, so it gives us a pretty good sense of where we are overall," said Jack Ablin, chief investment officer at BMO Private Bank. "Investors like that the Congress people are behaving themselves," said Ablin of the Republican-controlled House voting to suspend the government's $16.4 trillion debt limit until May 19. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA +0.49% rose 66.96 points, or 0.5%, to 13,779.17. The S&P 500 index SPX +0.15% gained 2.25 points, or 0.2%, to 1,494.81. The Nasdaq Composite COMP +0.33% climbed 10.49 points, or 0.3%, to 3,153.67.
