Post No. 2,187 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 May 16 and recent Dow 30 components' SEC filings also as of May 16.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Friday at 15,354.40 up 121.57 or 0.80% from Thursday's close of 15,233.22. For the week the Dow was up 235.91 or 1.56% from last Friday's close of 15,118.49. Of the Dow components 22 gained, Disney was unchanged and 7 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was IBM up $3.88 and percentage-wise was JPMorgan up 2.52%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Walmart down 71 cents or 0.90%.
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 16.58 down from yesterday's trailing P/E ratio of 16.65 (last year it was 13.68); today's P/E estimate is 13.55 unchanged from Thursday's P/E estimate of 13.55 (year ago it was 12.11) and today's dividend yield is 2.44 up from yesterday's dividend yield of 2.37 (last year it was 2.79). The Dow's all-time high was 15,354.79 on May 17, 2013. 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 1,999.39 up 15.78 from Thursday's closing numerator of 1,983.61. 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 Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $66.65 up 53 cents from Thursday's average of $66.12. The median closing price of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $64.67 (DIS/UNH) up 36 cents from Thursday's median closing price of $64.31. 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 $1,578 ($199,939 - $198,361).
5/17/13 Friday 4:01 pm MarketWatch by Kate Gibson says US stocks on Friday advanced to a fourth weekly gain, with both the Dow industrials and the S&P 500 rising to all-time records, after data cast a positive spin on the economy. "Certainly economic data support the market rising, and there is still a huge element related to quantitative easing for sure," Randy Frederick, managing director of active trading and derivatives at Charles Schwab, said of ongoing monetary easing by the U.S. Federal Reserve. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA +0.80% rose 121.18 points to 15,354.40. The S&P 500 index SPX +0.95% climbed 11.95 points to 1,662.42. The Nasdaq Composite COMP +0.97% added 33.72 points to 3,498.96.

The following are excerpts from Friday morning's Blog:
A read of the print editions of Friday's Wall St. Journal, Financial Times, Investor's Business Daily, the 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 Thursday's stock prices and related data in alphabetical order.
Dow Jones Industrial Average: The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Thursday at 15,233.22 down 42.27 or 0.28% from Wednesday's close of 15,275.69. For the year the Dow is up 16.25%. Of the Dow components 7 gained, Alcoa was unchanged and 12 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Cisco up $2.68 or 12.62%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Walmart down $1.36 and percentage-wise was Disney up 1.77%.
WSJ pC4 "Shares decline on worries Fed will hit brakes" by Chris Dieterich says stocks fell from all time highs due to concerns the Fed might stop efforts to stimulate growth. Walmart fell $1.36 after it reported earnings for the quarter that fell shy of forecasts and provided a downbeat 2Q outlook. Cisco is charted under Good News as its earnings and rev Wed topped views.
NYT pB8 "Investors take profits leading indexes down" by Reuters says stocks fell Thurs due to a Fed off'l saying the central bank could begin easing up on its stimulus this summer.
IBD pB2 "Stocks skid on Fed talk; IBD 50 slices 1.1% lower" by Paul Whitfield says Thursday saw the market down in mixed vol while the current outlook is still a confirmed uptrend.
FT p24 "S&P record run ends while Walmart suffers from poor results" by Arash Massoudi says US stocks snapped a 4 day record setting run as investors weighed poor quarterly sales results from Walmart along with weak economic data.
AJC pA11 "Mixed reports keep market down" by AP says signs of a slowing economy combined with comments from a Fed Reserve official helped pull the stock market down Thurs. Walmart fell 2% as it turned in weaker sales and a dmim forecast for profits blaming bad weather and delayed tax refunds for earnings and sales that fell short of views.
Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,983.61 down 5.53 from Wednesday's closing numerator of 1,989.14. 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 $66.12 down 18 cents from Wednesday's average of $66.30. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $64.31 (DIS/UNH) down 33 cents from Wednesday's median closing price of $64.64. 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 lost $553 ($198,914 - $198,361).
5/16/13
Thursday 4:41 pm MarketWatch by Kate Gibson says US stocks declined Thursday, halting the S&P 500’s
four-session winning streak, after a Federal Reserve official said the
central bank could begin tamping back on monetary easing as soon as this
summer. Equities fell to session lows as Bank of San Francisco President John
Williams said Fed bond purchases could be reduced if the economy
continues to improve.Ahead of the Williams speech, delivered in Portland, Ore., Dallas
Federal Reserve President Richard Fisher said the Fed should cut its
purchases of mortgage-backed securities, with the goal of eliminating
them entirely as the year continues.“Today we had a whole series of negative reports and a couple of Fed officials
out there basically commenting that maybe it’s time to start easing up
on the whole quantitative easing program,” said Dave Heidel, regional
investment manager for the Private Client Reserve of U.S. Bank Wealth
Management.The bull market, now in its fifth year, has been fueled by corporate
earnings that have exceeded expectations along with monetary easing by
the U.S. Fed as well as other central banks around the globe.
Facebook marks anniversary as a public company on May 18,
capping a tumultuous year in which its stock has struggled to bounce
back to its IPO price, even as business has improved.
“A constant for many quarters now is the fact that central banks of the
world are pumping so much liquidity, and some of it has found its way
into stocks,” Heidel said.Cisco Systems Inc.

was among the Dow losers after the discount-retailing giant reported quarterly earnings beneath Wall Street’s expectations and offered a disappointing forecast for
the second quarter.After rising as much as 26.8 points, and losing as
much as 59, the Dow finished at 15,233.22, off 42.47 points.The
S&P 500 index fell 8.31 points to 1,650.47, with consumer
discretionary the worst and technology the best performing among its 10
major sectors.The Nasdaq Composite

to 1.881%.Thursday’s session started off with Wall Street pausing after
notching
record highs the previous day, as data had jobless claims hitting a
six-week high and housing starts falling sharply.Thursday’s economic
reports “tell us a similar story that data have been
saying the past several months — that we have sluggish growth. But the
data certainly don’t indicate a return to recessionary conditions,” said
Brad Sorensen, director of market analysis at Charles Schwab.The tepid
economy is “a sweet spot for the market, as it keeps the Fed
in their easy stance, but it doesn’t indicate severe conditions,” he
added, referring to the central bank’s continuing bond purchases to help
stimulate the U.S. economy.The government reported jobless claims climbed by
32,000 to 360,000 last week, more than economists had projected.
Another report had the cost of living in April declining for a second
month, with the 0.4% drop in the consumer-price index coming as energy costs fell.At the same time, figures released by the Commerce Department had housing starts slipping 16.5% to their lowest level since November.Also, the Philadelphia Federal Reserve
reported that manufacturing activity in the region took a turn for the
worse in May.On Wednesday, the Dow industrials and S&P 500 index
rose to all-time closing highs on hopes for continuing central-bank stimulus.“Regardless of fundamental news, I would be very wary of trying to stand
in the way of central banks and what they are trying to do with risk
assets,” said Heidel.
