Post No. 1,983 The following is brought 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 Friday at 13,435.21 up 43.85 or 0.33% from Thursday's close of 13,391.36. For the week the Dow was up 497.10 or 3.84% from last Friday's close of 12,938.11. Of the Dow components 24 gained and 6 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Disney up 96 cents and percentage-wise was Alcoa up 2.04%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was IBM down $1.26 and percentage-wise was Microsoft down 1.87%.
As of the open of the market on Friday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C5 of Friday's Wall St. Journal is 0.130216081. Friday's trailing P/E ratio is 14.86 down from yesterday's trailing P/E ratio of 14.90 (year ago it was 13.43); today's P/E estimate is 12.57 unchanged from Thursday' s P/E estimate of 12.57 (year ago it was 12.49) and today's dividend yield is 2.56 down from yesterday's dividend yield of 2.62 (last year it was 2.58). 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 1,749.48 up 5.71 from Thursday's closing numerator of 1,743.77. 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 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 Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $58.32 up 19 cents from Thursday's average of $58.13. The median closing price of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $52.14 (DIS/UNH) up 59 cents from Thursday's median closing price of $51.55. 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 or dividends) and sold at the close you would have made $571 ($174,948 - $174,390).
Friday 1/4/13 MarketWatch 4:10 pm by Polya Lesova says U.S. stocks
rose on Friday and posted strong weekly gains, with the S&P 500 closing at its highest level since 2007, after Congress passed crucial budget legislation and data showed the economy is continuing to add jobs at a moderate pace. The S&P 500 index SPX +0.49% rose 7.10 points, or 0.5%, to 1,466.47; for the week, it gained 4.6%, its best weekly performance since December 2011. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA +0.33% climbed 43.85 points, or 0.3%, to 13,435.21, leaving it up 3.8% for the week. The Nasdaq Composite index COMP +0.04% gained 1.09 points, or 0.04%, to 3,101.66, as shares of Apple Inc. AAPL -0.27% dropped 2.8%. For the week, the Nasdaq rallied 4.8%.
