Post No. 2,081 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 3/1/13 and recent Dow 30 components' SEC filings as of 3/1/13.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Thursday at 14,329.49 up 33.25 or 0.23% from Wednesday's close of 14,296.24. Of the Dow components 20 gained and 10 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Boeing up $1.97 and percentage-wise was Bank of America up 2.85 %. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Exxon down 85 cents or 0.95%.
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 15.62 up from yesterday's trailing P/E ratio of 15.56 (year ago it was 15.95); today's opening P/E estimate is 13.68 up from Wednesday' s P/E estimate of 12.53 (year ago it was 13.12) and today's opening dividend yield is 2.16 down from yesterday's opening dividend yield of 2.47 (last year it was 2.00). The Dow's all-time high was 14,296.24 on March 6, 2013. 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 1,865.93 up 4.33 from Wednesday's closing numerator of 1,861.60. 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 Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $62.20 up 15 cents from Wednesday's average of $62.05. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $55.06 (DIS/UNH) up 7 cents from Wednesday's median closing price of $54.99. The lowest volume was Travelers 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 made $433 ($186,593 - $185,607).
3/7/13 Thursday 4:23 pm MarketWatch by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks rose Thursday, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average closing at another record high, as jobless claims fell to a six-week low, casting a positive spin on the labor front a day before the monthly employment report.
“The four-week moving average has come down significantly, from 335,000 to 348,000. And it correlates with the ADP number, which is usually a pretty good sign of where we are headed, so another piece of good news that could keep the train rolling,” said Art Hogan, market strategist at Lazard Capital Markets. After finishing at a record high on Wednesday for a second day straight, the Dow industrials DJIA +0.23% on Thursday rose 33.25 points, or 0.2%, to 14,329.49, with the blue-chip index extending gains into a fifth session. Equities have been on a roll on improving housing-market data and growth in corporate earnings, along with support from the Federal Reserve’s continuing policy of monetary easing. The Dow is up 9.4% so far in 2013, and the S&P 500 is ahead 8.3% for the year. Michael Casey outlines three stocks to watch on Thursday, including Dell. Carl Icahn is pushing for a huge special dividend instead of a leveraged buyout by founder Michael Dell. Financials led sector gains and utilities fared most poorly among the 10 major sectors on the S&P 500 index SPX +0.18% , up 2.80 points, or 0.2%, to 1,544.26, leaving it 21 points from its record closing high set in October 2007. “Typically, the stock market moves up about 2% to 3% following a breakout to a new all-time high, then begins a modest correction,” Fred Dickson, chief investment strategist at Davidson Cos., wrote in emailed commentary. The Nasdaq Composite Index COMP +0.30% advanced 9.72 points, or 0.3%, to 3,232.08. For every two stocks falling three gained on the New York Stock Exchange, where 708 million shares traded. Composite volume approached 3.6 billion. Ciena Corp. CIEN +17.34% gained 17% after the fiber-optic networking-equipment maker posted quarterly earnings that beat estimates; PetSmart Inc. /PETM -6.57% fell 6.6% after projecting earnings and sales growth below estimates, and Colgate-Palmolive Co. /CL +0.05% rose 0.1% after the seller of soap and household cleaners hiked its dividend and approving a 2-for-1 stock split.
On the New York Mercantile Exchange, crude-oil futures for April delivery /CLJ3 +1.25% climbed $1.13, or 1.3%, to end at $91.56 a barrel and gold futures for April delivery GCJ3 +0.18% added 20 cents to $1,575.10 an ounce. The euro EURUSD +1.06% gained against other major currencies, including the U.S. dollar, after the European Central Bank held its benchmark rate at a record low and ECB President Mario Draghi said economic reports point to a stabilizing economy. The Bank of England stuck with its target for quantitative easing, while the Bank of Japan dismissed calls that it begin asset purchases. The Labor Department said initial applications for unemployment benefits unexpected declined by 7,000 to 340,000 last week, with the six-week average falling to its lowest level since March 2008. The better-than-expected illustration of an improving labor market comes a day ahead of the government’s monthly jobs report, with the unemployment rate at 7.9% in January.
Another Labor Department report on Thursday had the productivity of American workers dropping in the fourth quarter as companies hired more and increased hours. And Commerce Department data had the trade deficit widening in January on increased demand for imported crude.

The following are excerpts from Thursday 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 Boomberg) 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 14,296.24 up 42.47 or 0.30% from Tuesday's close of 14,253.77. For the year the Dow is up 9.10% Of the Dow components 20 gained and 10 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was IBM up $1.89 and percentage-wise was Bank of Americ up 3.2%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Caterpillar down 64 cents and percentage-wise was Microsoft down 0.92%.
WSJ pC4 "New Day, New highf or Dow" by Chris Dieterich says a report by ADP and Moody's Analytics that saw an increae of 198,000 jobs, better than expected, drove the market higher. Bank of America topped the Dow up 37 cents, Hewlett-Packard rose 56 cents. Microsoft fell 26 cents due to the $732 mil fine from the European Union.
USAT p3B "Dow sets high after appetitie for stock funds fades" byAdam Shell says after 7 straight weeks of net inflows into funds that invest in US stocks, investors yanked $1.1 bil more out of these funds than they put in during the week ended 2/27.
NYT pB6 "Hints of a jobs uptick help buoy the market" by Reuters says Wall St edged higher Wed due to ADP's survey that bodes well for the monthly jobs report due at week's end.
AJC pA11 "US stocks add to record level" by Matthew Craft, AP says an encouraging job market report helped nudge the stock market to another record high.
Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,861.60 up 6.53 from Tuesday's closing numerator of 1,856.07. 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 Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $62.05 up 18 cents from Tuesday's average of $61.87. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $54.99 (DIS/UNH) unchanged cents from Tuesday's median closing price of $54.99. 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 $653 ($185,607 - $185,607).
3/6/13 Wednesday 4:38 pm MarketWatch by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks on Wednesday finished mostly higher, with the blue-chip Dow Jones Industrial Average extending its record rise after an encouraging report on private-payrolls growth. The S&P 500 index — a broader gauge of the stock market — posted slight gains, ending the session 24 points from its all-time closing high recorded in October of 2007. The market’s bull run has come amid central-bank monetary easing both in the United States and overseas, with the European Central Bank and Japan’s central bank among those participating.“I wonder is it counter-intuitive optimism growing from Japan to the U.S. that they are going to keep the punch bowl out there. Central bankers are all in; how can you collectively fight all of them, if you’re betting against them, that’s a big bet to make,” said Nick Raich, CEO of the Earnings Scout, an independent microeconomic research firm specializing in corporate earnings trends in Cleveland, Ohio. A day after closing at an all-time high, the Dow Jones Industrial AverageDJIA +0.30% furthered its gains, rising as much as 66 points and ending up 42.47 points, or 0.3%, at 14,296.24. Materials and financial companies fared best among the 10 major industry groups on the S&P 500 index, which added 1.67 point, or 0.1%, to 1,541.46, leaving it 24 points shy of its record-high finish hit in October 2007. “We’re approaching all-time highs because we’re at all-time levels of profit,” said Raich. “Earnings growth for the S&P 500 SPX +0.11% reaccelerated form the third to fourth quarter, but there is going to be a temporary slowdown in first quarter,” he added. The Nasdaq Composite COMP -0.06% lost 1.77 point, or 0.1%, to 3,222.37, hit in part by a 1.3% decline in shares of Apple Inc. AAPL -1.27% . For every two stocks falling nearly three gained on the New York Stock Exchange, where almost 684 million shares traded. Composite volume approached 3.7 billion. Data showed a welcome rise in private-sector payrolls in February, a less-than-expected drop in U.S. factory orders the month before and evidence of slowing retail sales from the Federal Reserve’s Beige Book. Richard E. Sylla, financial historian and professor of economics at NYU's Stern School of Business, discusses the likelihood of a series of markets highs, the impact of the Fed's ability to keep interest rates down, and the tendency for investors to buy high and sell low. Ahead of the open, stock-index futures extended gains after Automatic Data Processing Inc. reported private-sector jobs rose by 198,000 last month, exceeding expectations. The January jobs data were revised higher. “It all looks good; the numbers are showing roughly 200,000 now for the last two months,” said Raich. Other Wednesday data had the government reporting orders for U.S. factory goods in January declined by the most in five months, hit by weak appetite for military hardware and commercial aircraft. Among individual stock movers, Staples Inc.SPLS +7.70% slid 7.2% after the office-supplies retailer projected profit beneath estimates. VeriFone Systems Inc. PAY +8.57% added 8.6% after the manufacturer of credit-card terminals reported earnings that topped expectations. Shares of Best Buy Co. BBY +1.90% rose 1.9% after Jefferies Group Inc. hiked its view on the retailer to buy from hold.
