5/7/13 Tues pm Dow Closes at 15,056.20 up 87.31 or 0.58%

http://www.dowjonesmonitor.com/

Post No. 2,170  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 15,056.20 up 87.31 or 0.58% from Monday's close of 14,968.89. Of the Dow components 23 gained, Walmart was unchanged and 6 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise  and percentage-wise was Caterpillar up $2.20 or 2.51%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was  Microsoft down 44 cents and percentage-wise was  Cisco down 2.51%.

As of the open of the market on Tuesday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C6 of Tuesday's Wall St. Journal is 0.130216081.Tuesday's trailing P/E ratio is 16.38 up from Monday's trailing P/E ratio of 16.41 (last year it was 14.46); Tuesday's P/E estimate is 13.25 unchanged from Monday's P/E estimate of 13.25 (year ago it was 12.46) and Tuesday's dividend yield is 2.39 unchanged from Monday's dividend yield of 2.39 (last year it was 2.52). The Dow's all-time high was 15,056.20 on May 7, 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 1,960.56 up 11.38 from Monday's closing numerator of 1,949.18. 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 $65.35 up 38 cents from Monday's average of $64.97. The median closing price of Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $63.29 (DIS/UNH) up 66 cents from Monday's median closing price of $62.63. 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 $1,138 ($196,056 - $194,918).


5/7/13 Tuesday MarketWatch 4:21 by Kate Gibson says U.S stocks rose on Tuesday, with the Dow industrials closing above 15,000 for the first time, after Australia cut its refinancing rate and satellite-TV provider DirecTV and watch maker Fossil Inc. reported improved earnings.

Wall Street’s extended record run comes amid a bull market that started a fifth year in March. U.S. equities have been supported by the Federal Reserve’s three rounds of Treasury purchases as well as by corporate America’s record profits. Rising to a record intraday high of 15,056.67, the Dow industrials DJIA +0.58%  climbed 87.31 points to 15,056.20, with 23 of its 30 components rising.

After closing at records the prior three sessions, the S&P 500 index SPX +0.52% on Tuesday extended that run, rising 8.46 points to 1,625.96, with telecommunications and industrials leading the gains that included all but technology of its 10 basic sectors.The index started out the session up 13.68% on the year, the best start through 87 trading days since 1991, noted analysts at Bespoke Investment Group.Fossil Inc. FOSL +9.01%  shares were among the leading risers, up 9%, and First Solar Inc. FSLR -8.93%  was hardest hit, retreating 8.9%.Fossil gained after the seller of watches and handbags reported strong sales and better-than-expected earnings for the first quarter. 

First Solar shares declined a day after the energy provider reported disappointing earnings.

Shares of DirecTV DTV +6.88%   climbed 6.9% after the provider of satellite-television services reported earnings above analysts’ expectations.Eighty-five percent, or 423 companies of the S&P 500, have reported first-quarter earnings, with 67.4% beating, 9.2% meeting and 23.4% missing expectations, according to Thomson Reuters. But 53.9% of those companies have missed and 46.1% have beat revenue estimates, said Thomson Reuters corporate earnings research analyst Greg Harrison.The Nasdaq Composite COMP +0.11%  advanced 3.66 points to 3,396.63.

Advancers outran decliners by a more than 3-to-1 ratio on the New York Stock Exchange, where 630 million shares traded. Composite volume approached 3.3 billion. Energy prices fell, with crude-oil futures for June delivery CLM3 -0.80%   off 54 cents to end at $95.62 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
