Post No. 2,156 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 April 1, 2013 and recent Dow 30 components' SEC filings as of April 1, 2013.
A read of the print editions of Wednesday'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 Tuesday's stock prices and related data in alphabetical order.
Dow Jones Industrial Average:The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Tuesday at 14,719.46 up 152.29 or 1.15% from Monday's close of 14,567.17. For the year the Dow is up 12.33%. Of the Dow components 24 gained and 6 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was IBM up $3.78 and percentage-wise was DuPont up 4.13%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was United Technologies down 74 cents and percentage-wise was UnitedHealth down 1.15%.
WSJ pC4 "DuPont powers Dow rise" by Jonathan Cheng, Mike Cherney, Jerry DiColo says US stocks ended a tumultuous day with strong gains after a false tweet briefly sent markets veering. Travelers rose $1.77 after it raised its dividend and reported earnings that topped expectations. DuPont was the Dow's leader after it boosted its dividend and beat earnings estimates. United Tech fell 74 cents after it missed earnings & rev estimates.
IBD pB4 "Market mvoes up again, shakes off false report" by Victor Reklaitis says the market Tues tretched its winning streak to 3 days shrugging off a brief plunge caused by a false report of a White House bombing. Tuesday's action saw solid gains as turnover rises. The current outlook is the market is still in a correction. AT&T was lower in extended trading following its quarterly report. Procter & Gamble & Boeing report results today.
FT p22 "Travelers leads fin'ls higher on the back of strong premiums" by Arash Massoudi says stocks rose Tues as corp earnings results bolstered shares and signs of weakness from the eurozone suggested that policy makers may intervene to stimulate economices. Travelers gained 2.1% after it boosted its quarterly dividend and reported strong 1Q results. Bank of America was up 3.1%. United Technologies lost 0.8% after saying parts of its business had been hurt by budget cuts.
As of the open of the market on Wednesday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C6 of Wednesday's Wall St. Journal is 0.130216081. Wednesday's trailing P/E ratio is 16.19 up from yesterday's P/E ratio of 15.88 (year ago it was 14.60); today's P/E estimate is 13.05 unchanged from Tuesday' s P/E estimate of 13.05 (year ago it was 12.32) and today's dividend yield is 2.43 down from yesterday's dividend yield of 2.45 (last year it was 2.52). The Dow's all-time high was 14,865.14 on April 11, 2013. 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 1,916.71 up 19.83 from Monday's closing numerator of 1,896.88. 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 $63.89 up 66 cents from Monday's average of $63.23. The median closing price of Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $60.57 (DIS/UNH) up 1 cent from Monday's median closing price of $60.56. The lowest volume was 3M 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 $1,983 ($191,671 - $189,688).
4/23/13 Tuesday 4:27
pm MarketWatch by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks rallied on
Tuesday, recouping after an
erroneous tweet pushed the market down 1% in seconds, as investors
embraced earnings and less-dismal-than-anticipated corporate forecasts.
‘It [the market’s reaction to a phony AP tweet]
probably does reveal a little bit about the skittishness of this market,
not that it wouldn’t have had an impact in any case, but the market has
struggled with confidence," said Bruce McCain, Key Private Bank. “The
good news is guidance is still being cut by a majority of
companies, but not all that much, or at a lesser rate. We’re not seeing
major slashes to second-quarter expectations,” said Nick Raich, chief
executive at The Earnings Scout in Cleveland, Ohio. Of the more than 130 S&P’s 500 companies that have reported
quarterly results so far, 70% beat earnings estimates but only 48%
exceeded sales expectations, according to Raich.The Dow Jones Industrial Average

after the Associated Press said its Twitter account was hacked. The
AP’s Twitter feed had erroneously said that there had been two
explosions at the White House.“The mini crash and recovery does say something about the impact Twitter
feeds can have,” Bruce McCain, chief investment strategist at Key
Private Bank.

And, “it probably does reveal a little bit about the skittishness of
this market, not that it wouldn’t have had an impact in any case, but
