Post No. 2,241 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 recent ranking of the Dow 30 components by market capitalization and recent Dow 30 components' SEC filings.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Monday at 14659.56 down 139.84 or 0.94% from Friday's close of 14799.4. Of the Dow components 5 gained and 25 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Johnson & Johnson up 41.41 or 1.69%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Boeing down $2.13 and percentage-wise was Bank of America down 3.07%.
As of the open of the market on Monday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of Monday's Wall St. Journal is 0.130216081. Monday's trailing P/E ratio is 16.17 up from Friday's trailing P/E ratio of 16.13 (last year it was 13.94); Monday's P/E estimate is 13.35 down from Friday's P/E estimate of 13.62 (year ago it was 12.15) and Monday's dividend yield is 2.47 unchanged from Friday's dividend yield of 2.47 (last year it was 2.64). The Dow's all-time high was 15,409.39 on May 28, 2013. The 12 year low close for the Dow was on March 9, 2009 when it fell to 6,547.05.
Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1908.91 down 17.21 from Friday's closing numerator of 1927.12. 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 Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $63.63 down 61 cents from Friday's average of $64.24. The median closing price of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $63.55 (DIS/UNH) up 23 cents from Friday's median closing price of $63.32. The lowest volume was TRV and the highest volume again was Bank of America.
If Monday 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 $1,721 ($192,712 - $190,891).
Monday MarketWatch 4:08 by Polya Lesova says U.S. stocks ended sharply lower on Monday, following a 5.3% tumble in the Shanghai stock market overnight spurred by worries over China's economy and banking system. Stocks on Wall Street pared some of their losses in the afternoon after Federal Reserve officials tried to downplay talk of tapering the central bank's bond-buying program. After dropping 248 points during the session, the Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA -0.94% ended down 139.84 points, or 0.9%, at 14,659.56. The S&P 500 SPX -1.21% fell 19.34 points, or 1.2%, to end at 1,573.09 and the Nasdaq Composite COMP -1.09% dropped 36.49 points, or 1.1%, to 3,320.76.

The following are excerpts from Monday morning's Blog:
A read of the print editions of Monday's Barron's & Investor's Business Daily, Wall St. Journal, Financial Times, 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 Friday's stock prices and related data in alphabetical order.
Dow Jones Industrial Average:The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Friday at 14799.4 up 41.08 or 0.28% from Thursday's close of 14758.32. For the year the Dow is up 12.94%. For the week the Dow was down 270.78 or 1.8% from last Friday's close of 15070.18. Of the Dow components 19 gained and 11 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Procter & Gamble up $2.18 and percentage-wise was Coke up 1.61%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was IBM down $1.89 and percentage-wise was Hewlett-Packard down 2.31%.
IBD pB8 "Stocks end mixed Friday, but S&P hits wall at 1600" by Paul Whitfield says stocks took a stab at a rebound in the opening minutes Friday then quickly sagged before reversing higher in the afternoon. Friday's action was mixed in heavy volume and the current outlook is the market is in a correction.
Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1927.12 up 5.35 from Thursday's closing numerator of 1921.77. 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 $64.24 up 18 cents from Thursday's average of $64.06. The median closing price of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $63.32 (DIS/UNH) up 43 cents from Thursday's median closing price of $62.89. The lowest volume was TRV 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 $535 ($192,712 -$192,177 ).
Friday MarketWatch 4:10 by Polya Lesova & Victor Reklaitis says U.S. stocks eked out modest gains on Friday, but posted losses for the week, which was dominated by fears that the Federal Reserve may begin pulling back stimulus later this year.After a very choppy trading session, the S&P 500 index SPX +0.27% gained 4.24 points, or 0.3%, to end at 1,592.43. It fell 2.1% for the week.Eight of the S&P 500’s 10 major sectors ended higher, with consumer staples leading gainers and information technology leading decliners.The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA +0.28% rose 41.08 points, or 0.3%, to 14,799.40, leaving it down 1.8% for the week. This was the Dow’s worst week since the one ended on April 19.Hewlett-Packard Co. HPQ -2.31% was the top decliner, while Procter & Gamble Co. PG +2.90% was the top gainer in the Dow on Friday.Paul Vigna and David Wessel discuss comments from St. Louis Fed President James Bullard, and TollGrade CEO Edward Kennedy looks at how best to prevent summer power outages.The Nasdaq Composite COMP -0.22% fell 7.39 points, or 0.2%, to end at 3,357.25, leaving it with a weekly loss of 1.9%. The tech-heavy index was hurt by a 9.3% drop in shares of Oracle Corp. ORCL -9.26% . The tech bellwether delivered a disappointing quarterly earnings report late Thursday.More than 2 billion shares traded on the New York Stock Exchange. Composite volume topped 5.6 billion.Friday was a quadruple-witching session, meaning expirations for index futures, options on index futures, single-stock futures and stock options. Such sessions can be the most heavily traded days of the year.
Friday’s gains came after The Wall Street Journal suggested that investors may be misreading the Federal Reserve’s message. Jon Hilsenrath, the Journal’s Fed watcher, wrote a blog saying that markets may be overlooking several dovish signals sent by Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke.
U.S. stocks, along with commodities and bonds, fell sharply in the
previous two sessions after Bernanke said in a news conference Wednesday
that the central bank may scale back its bond buying later this year.
While the Fed may do so, Hilsenrath wrote, it will be a long time before
the Fed raises short-term interest rates.The Dow’s slide on Wednesday and Thursday — a drop of 560 points or
3.66% — was its worst two-day drop since the two sessions ended Nov. 1,
2011.Investors also absorbed remarks from St. Louis Federal Reserve President James Bullard, who explained
on Friday why he voted against the Fed decision. Bullard said the Fed’s
decision to lay out its plans to taper bond buys was badly timed. The
Fed should have waited “for more tangible signs” of economic improvement
and a halt in the downward direction for inflation, according to
Bullard.The rise in the 10-year Treasury yield
10_YEAR
+5.26%
— which surged to 2.53% on Friday, its highest level since August 2011 —
is providing a headwind for stocks, according to Bruce Bittles, chief
investment strategist at Robert W. Baird & Co. He said 2.5% is a key
level. “If it breaks through there, I think the market will really have
some problems,” he said.
