Post No. 2,065 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 and recent Dow 30 components' SEC filings.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Tuesday at 13,900.13 up 115.96 or 0.84% from Monday's close of 13,784.17. Of the Dow components 23 gained, Microsoft was unchanged and 6 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Home Depot up $3.64 or 5.69%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was UnitedHealth Care down 25 cents or 0.47%.
As of the open of the market on Tuesday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C5 of Tuesday's Wall St. Journal is 0.130216081. Tuesday's opening trailing P/E ratio is 15.30 down from yesterday's opening trailing P/E ratio of 15.54 (year ago it was 14.53); today's opening P/E estimate is 12.54 unchanged from Monday' s opening P/E estimate of 12.54 (year ago it was 12.45) and today's opening dividend yield is 2.60 up from yesterday's opening dividend yield of 2.53 (last year it was 2.50). 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.
Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,810.02 up 15.10 from Monday's closing numerator of 1,794.92. 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 change for today by the divisor (0.130216081) you get the change 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 Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $60.33 up 50 cents from Monday's average of $59.83. The median closing price of Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $53.47 (DIS/UNH) up 2 cents from Monday's median closing price of $53.45. The lowest volume was Travelers and the highest volume again was Bank of America.
If Tuesday 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 $1,510 ($181,002 - $179,492).
2/26/13 Tuesday 4:38 pm MarketWatch by Kate Gibson says US stocks rose Tuesday, recouping much of the prior day’s
slide, as evidence of a solid finish for housing in 2012 and after Ben
Bernanke defended the Fed’s monetary policy.Home Depot Inc.
HD
+5.69%
shares rallied after the retailer raised its dividend and approved a $17 billion stock buyback. “The market is bouncing back after yesterday’s big decline; the other
part of it is we get a bit of a bounce from Bernanke’s comments along
the lines of continued QE [quantitative easing],” Paul Nolte, managing
director at Dearborn Partners in Chicago, said of the Federal Reserve
chairman’s testimony on Capitol Hill.
U.S. home prices improved in December, reversing declines in November. Meanwhile, new-home sales soared 15.6% in January.After losing 216.40 points in Monday’s session, the Dow Jones Industrial Average

+0.84%
on Tuesday tallied its second triple-digit rise in three sessions, adding 115.96 points, or 0.8%, to 13,900.13.“We’ll take it as a plus, certainly from the real-estate side, and also
what we heard from some of the retailers,” said Nolte of economic
reports and quarterly results from Home Depot Inc.

Stocks had erased most of their gains as Bernanke took questions from
lawmakers, with the Fed chief warning automatic federal budget
reductions slated to start Friday would impose a “significant” burden on
the U.S. economy if politicians are unable to reach a deal to avoid the
cuts.
Bernanke’s prepared testimony on Capitol Hill had him reiterating his
view that the benefits of the central bank’s easing policy outweigh any
costs.Economic reports showed the value of U.S. homes rising in the final
month of last year. The Federal Housing Finance Agency reported home
prices rose 0.6% and the S&P/Case-Shiller home-price index climbed
0.2% in December. Commerce Department figures showed new-home sales rising 15.6% last
month to an annual rate of 437,000, the highest mark since July 2008. And, the Conference Board said its index of consumer confidence climbed
to 69.6 this month, exceeding estimates of 62.3, with the data
suggesting that “consumers are weathering the recent storm of higher
payroll taxes and rising gas prices reasonably well,” said Jim Baird,
chief investment strategist for Plante Moran Financial Advisors.“Since most people have their wealth tied up in their home, rising home
prices make consumers more confident, more creditworthy and more willing
to spend acquired income,” Dan Greenhaus, chief global strategist at
BTIG LLC, noted in an email.“Ultimately that has important effects on economic output, one reason
that home-price fluctuations are watched so closely,” Greenhaus added.Benchmark stock indexes sank Monday as national elections in Italy
yielded uncertain results, with the CBOE Volatility Index jumping 34% in
a display of investor uncertainty.The Nasdaq Composite
