Post No. 2,036 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 2/1/13 and recent Dow 30 components' SEC filings as of 2/1/13.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Thursday at 13,944.05 down 42.47 or 0.3% from Wednesday's close of 13,986.52. Of the Dow components 6 gained, Procter & Gamble was unchanged and 13 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was American Express up $1.58 or 2.61%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Caterpillar down $1.59 and percentage-wise was down Exxon down 1.72%.
As of the open of the market on Thursday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C5 of Thursday's Wall St. Journal is 0.130216081. Thursday's opening trailing P/E ratio is 15.40 down from yesterday's opening trailing P/E ratio of 15.43 (year ago it was 14.39); today's opening P/E estimate is 12.54 unchanged from Tuesday' s opening P/E estimate of 12.54 (year ago it was 12.30) and today's opening dividend yield is 2.49 up from yesterday's opening dividend yield of 2.48 (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.
Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,815.74 down 5.51 from Wednesday's closing numerator of 1,821.27. 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 deincrease for Monday by the divisor (0.130216081) you get the decrease in Friday'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 Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $60.52 down 19 cents from Wednesday's average of $60.71. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $55.71 (DIS/UNH) down 26 cents from Wednesday's median closing price of $55.97. The lowest volume was 3M and the highest volume again was Bank of America.
If Thursday 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 $551 ($182,127 - $181,574).
MarketWatch Thursday 2/7/13 4:49 by Wallace Witkowski & Polya Lesova says U.S. stocks
fell Thursday as investors sold off cyclical stocks such as energy and waited for fresh reasons to buy after a heady start to the year. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA -0.30% closed down 42.47 points, or 0.3%, to 13,944.05. The index was down as much as 134 points, or 1%, earlier in the day.
Investor David Einhorn has come out against an Apple proposal to eliminate
preferred stock; no Saturday mail could affect how many movies you get from
Netflix; and what's next for digital classrooms. Getty. The S&P 500 SPX
-0.18%
slipped 2.73 points, or 0.2%, to 1,509.39 after touching an
intraday low of 1,498.49, with materials and energy the biggest decliners among
the index’s 10 major industry groups. Before a recent retreat, the S&P 500
had been up more than 6% for the year. The Nasdaq Composite Index COMP
-0.11% fell
3.34 points, or 0.1%, to 3,165.13. The index touched an intraday low of
3,135.98. The dip in Thursday’s stock market is likely profit-taking and not connected
to any one thing as investors wait for a pullback to jump on buying
opportunities, said Scott Wren, senior equity strategist at Wells Fargo
Advisors. “I don’t think there’s too much going on in terms of drivers, it’s more just
trading action,” said Wren. In fact, Wren said the market is more likely “to
grind a little higher” in the short term, expecting the eventual selloff to come
at a higher level. In Frankfurt, the European Central Bank left interest rates unchanged. ECB
President Mario Draghi said in a news conference that the bank’s accommodative
monetary-policy stance should support growth, but that economic-recovery risks
are skewed to the downside. Given Draghi’s recent comments about “positive contagion” in the euro-zone,
markets were not prepared for his more pessimistic tone Thursday, said Mark
Luschini, chief investment strategist at Janney Montgomery Scott. That, and
there’s so much buying power already baked into the stock market, economic
activity needs to catch up to prices, he said. “The general feeling over last few trading sessions is that the market is
tired, not because of selling, but an exhaustion of buying,” Luschini said. Declining stocks outnumbered advancers by about 13 to 10 on the HYSE and by
about 17 to 10 on the Nasdaq. Composite volume topped 3.4 billion shares on the
NYSE and 1.9 billion on the Nasdaq Stock Market. Despite the bumps in the markets this week, Stephen Pope, managing partner at
Spotlight Ideas, said he doesn’t see any big panic button to press unless the
Dow drops past the 13,500 level and the S&P 500 index drops to 1,445. “We’ve
got plenty of fat on the bone here; there will be retracement, days of
correction,” he said. “The downside in these price movements are buying
opportunities.” In the U.S., retailers reported same-store sales for January, with Macy’s
Inc. M +2.00% reporting
same-store-sales growth well above expectations. Hedge-fund manager David Einhorn said he opposes a proposal by technology
giant Apple Inc. AAPL
-0.15% to
eliminate preferred stock. Einhorn also said that his fund is long Apple shares
and that the iPad maker is misvalued by the market. After trading up slightly for most of the day, shares of Apple jumped to
close up nearly 3% after the iPhone maker said it would evaluate Greenlight’s
proposal.
In other corporate news, Sprint Nextel Corp. S -0.52% said its
fourth-quarter loss widened but its revenue exceeded forecasts. Shares of the
wireless carrier slipped 0.5%. Shares of Akamai Technologies Inc. /AKAM
-15.20% sank
more than 15% after the company’s quarterly revenue growth disappointed
investors. Green Mountain Coffee Roasters Inc. /GMCR
-5.35%
shares fell more than 5% after the company projected downbeat sales growth for
the current quarter. Einhorn told CNBC in an interview that he’s still short the
stock. In addition to economic data, investors also parsed through comments from
Chicago Fed President Charles Evans. In an interview with CNBC, Evans said he’s
optimistic the U.S. economy will improve and that the Fed’s policies have done a
lot of good already. Evans, a member of the policy-making Federal Open Market Committee, was the
first to call for the Fed to set a jobless-rate level that would need to be hit
in order for the central bank to lift interest rates.In economic news, jobless claims slipped to an adjusted 366,000 for the week.
Also, U.S. productivity declined by 2% in the fourth quarter, according to the Labor Department.

The following are excerpts from Thurs. morning's Blog:
A read of the print editions of Thursday's Wall. St. Journal, Financial Times, Investor's Business Daily, New York Times, USA Today, Atlanta Journal Constitution & Daily Report (Ga. - carries Bloomberg) yielded the following stories about Dow Jones Industrial Average 30 component companies and the Dow with stories about the Dow aggregated first and then items about Dow Jones Industrial Average 30 companies presented alphabetically, followed by a separate table of Dow component's symbol and Wednesday's stock prices and related data in alphabetical order.
Dow Jones Industrial Average: The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Wednesday at 13,986.52 up 7.22 or 0.05% from Tuesday's close of 13,979.3. For the year the Dow is up 6.73%. Of the Dow components 19 gained and 11 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was 3M up $1.21 or 1.19%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was IBM down $1.88 and percentage-wise was Merck down 0.97%.
WSJ pC4 "Blue Chips battle for small gain" by Jonathan Cheng says the Dow gained as investors weighed the latest round of earnings reports vs. weakness in European markets. Disney was up 23 cents after it reported 1Q results that topped analyst estimates.
Fin Times p24 "Ralph Lauren results add polish as signs of dealmaking improve" by Arash Massoudi says US stocks rose slightly Wed as investors digested a handful of quarterly earnings reports & further signs of a pick up in deal making.
NYT pB6 "Unremarkable earnings reports keep the markets flat" by AP says stocks were flat Wed as the latest round of earnings reports failed to give an impetus to the market.
IBD pB2 "NASDAQ traces inside day while Russell 2000 rallies" by David Saito-Chung says Wed's action was flat in lighter trade while the current outlook is still a confirmed uptrend.
AJC pA15 "Earnings fail to insprie" by AP says stocks were flat Wed after the latest earnings reports gave investors little impetus to extend a recent rally.
Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,821.27 up 0.94 from Tuesday's closing numerator of 1,820.33. 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 Monday by the divisor (0.130216081) you get the increase in Friday'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 $60.71 up 3 cents from Tluesday's average of $60.68. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $55.97 (DIS/UNH) down 5 cents from Tuesday's median closing price of $56.02. 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 $94 ($182,127 - $182,033).
MarketWatch Wednesday 2/6/13 3:45 by Wallace Witkowski & Polya Lesova says U.S. stocks rebounded from early losses Wednesday as investors began to book profits after recent run-ups.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA+0.05% was nearly flat 13,975 in recent activity, with 16 out of 30 components gaining, after being down as much as 66 points and up as much as 13 points higher earlier. Silvio Berlusconi, the former Italian prime minister, may be down in the polls but remains the best-known face of Italian politics. Much of the indecision in the market reflects investor sentiment with a lack of commitment being prevalent, said Robert Pavlik, chief market strategist at Banyan Partners. “A lot of people are looking at this market and saying, ‘We’re up 6% in one month,’ and they’ve seen no pause since December,” Pavlik said. “People are a little on edge.”
On the Dow, 3M Co.MMM+1.18% shares led the index rising 1.2%, while shares of Walt Disney Co. DIS+0.42% rose less than 1% following the media conglomerate’s earnings late Tuesday.
Hewlett-Packard Co. HPQ+0.48% were nearly flat after being up more than 1% earlier after a media report said Tuesday that H-P’s board is studying a breakup of the technology company.“It’s kind of a flat day, not much out of Washington or Europe; it’s still an earnings-driven story,” said Dan Greenhaus, chief global strategist at BTIG. “Based on investor reaction to consumer stocks, the consumer isn’t doing all that bad.” Consumer-discretionary stocks were one of the few sectors showing gains Wednesday, with some of the best performers getting a lift off their recent earnings reports. Ralph Lauren Corp. l RL +5.89% was one of the best-performing stock on the S&P 500, with shares up nearly 7% after the apparel retailer’s quarterly earnings beat Wall Street expectations.
Also, shares of Wyndham Worldwide Corp.WYN+6.78% were up nearly 7% after the hotel operator showed a 45% improvement in profit for the fourth quarter. Time Warner Inc. TWX+4.10% shares gained 4% after the media giant reported a surge in fourth-quarter earnings, and Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. CMG+5.72% shares rose more than 5% after the company’s earnings late Tuesday.
Also, shares of First Solar Inc. FSLR+7.27% rose nearly 7% after Citigroup initiated coverage on the company Wednesday with a Buy rating. On the other hand, GameStop Corp. GME-6.01% shares slumped nearly 7%, as one of the worst performers on the S&P 500.
The S&P 500 Index SPX+0.05% fell 1.4 points, or 0.1%, at 1,510. The Nasdaq Composite Index COMP-0.10%declined 8 points, or 0.3%, at 3,164. Earlier in the session, a drop in the euro and European stocks was attributed to mixed polls out of Italy concerning Berlusconi’s popularity weeks before Italian elections.While some polls noted a Berlusconi comeback, which would cause concern among investors as it would likely jeopardize recent Italian reforms, other polls came out to throw cold water on that notion. While that may have pressured the euro, using that excuse for a weight on stocks is “kind of ridiculous,” said Pavlik. “It’s just looking for an excuse,” Pavlik said. “It’s a lack of commitment [from investors].”

I love to hear the commentary of stock market because in this market nobody knows what is going to be happen next whether the price would be high or low. Only the active and smart people can make money from this market.
