Post No. 2,283 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 July 14, 2013 and recent Dow 30 components' SEC filings as of 7/14/13.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Thursday at 15470.52 up 18.67 or 0.12% from Wednesday's close of 15470.52. Of the Dow components 20 gained and 10 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was UnitedHealth up $4.32 or 6.52% . The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was American Express down $2.79 or 3.63%.
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 trailing P/E ratio was 16.73 unchanged from yesterday's trailing P/E ratio of 16.73 (last year it was 14.54); today's P/E estimate is 13.55 unchanged from Wednesday's P/E estimate of 13.55 (year ago it was 12.23) and today's dividend yield is 2.37 unchanged from yesterday's dividend yield of 2.37 (last year it was 2.60). The Dow's all-time high was 15,548.54 on July 18, 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 2024.67 up 10.16 from Wednesday's closing numerator of 2014.51. 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 $67.49 up 34 cents from Wednesday's average of $67.15. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $68.19 (DIS/UNH) up 2.39 cents from Wednesday's median closing price of $65.80. 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 $1,016 ($202,467 - $201,451).
Thursday MarketWatch 4:29 by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks rose on Thursday, lifting benchmark indexes to record highs, after jobless claims fell and
earnings from corporations including UnitedHealth Group Inc. topped
expectations as investors heard from Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke.Surpassing its prior intraday record set on May 22, the S&P 500 index
SPX
+0.50%
rose to a session high of 1,693.12. It closed up 8.46 points, or 0.5%, at 1,689.37, its 21st record close this year.Financials paced gains among its major 10 sectors, while telecommunications and information technology posted losses.“It’s earnings and Bernanke — that’s what is supporting the market and
driving it higher,” said Chris Gaffney, senior market strategist at
Everbank Wealth Management.
Bernanke spent a second day on Capitol Hill, discussing the outlook
and Fed rate policy with the Senate Banking Committee. The Fed chief
said that economic data since the last Fed rate-policy meeting have been
“mixed” and it was “way too early” to make a judgment on when the
central bank will slow down the pace of its asset purchases.“We’ve transitioned to a point where good news is good news, now that
market participants have successfully acquired the knowledge that a
reduction in QE is not less accommodation, that there is a difference
between reducing quantitative easing and lifting the Fed funds rate,”
said Art Hogan, a market strategist at Lazard Capital Markets. Bond
buying by the Fed is also known as quantitative easing.Economic reports on Thursday had jobless claims falling by 24,000 to 334,000 last week from a revised 358,000 the week before, according to figures released by the Labor Department. Paul Vigna, David Benoit and Angelo Zino discuss Dell's delay in
its shareholder vote, and Kathleen Madigan looks at the state of the
economy.The Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia’s economic index this month rose to 19.8, the highest since March 2011, from 12.5 in June.In addition to equities, the U.S. dollar
DXY
+0.13%
, longer-term Treasury yields
10_YEAR
+1.60%
, oil
CLU3
+1.42%
and gold
GCQ3
+0.40%
also rose.One factor behind the recent spike in long-term interest rates is the
deleveraging of “excessively risky” investing, along with improving
economic reports and Wall Street’s reactions to signals sent by the Fed,
Bernanke said.The yield on the 10-year Treasury note
10_YEAR
+1.60%
rose to 2.541%, after falling to a two-week low Wednesday. The yield
had jumped from 1.93% on May 21, a day before Bernanke said the Fed
could reduce bond purchases if data indicate continuing improvement on
the jobs front.
After striking an intraday record of 15,589.40, the Dow Jones Industrial Average
DJIA
+0.50%
closed up 78.02 points, or 0.5%, to 15,548.54, marking its 27th record
close this year. Pacing the Dow’s gains, UnitedHealth Group Inc.
UNH
+6.52%
rose 6.5% after reporting a larger-than-expected increase in second-quarter net income. Dow component Intel Corp.
INTC
-0.23%
retreated 3.8% after projecting third-quarter sales that could come in below expectations. International Business Machines Corp.
IBM
+1.77%
climbed 1.8% after hiking its full-year earnings outlook.

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 & amp; amp; 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 Wednesday's stock prices and related data in alphabetical order.
Dow Jones Industrial Average: The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Wednesday at 15470.52 up 18.67 or 0.12% from Tuesday's close of 15451.85. For the year the Dow is up18.06 %. Of the Dow components 18 gained, Pfizer was unchanged and 11 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was DuPont up $2.87 or 5.28 % . The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was American Express down $1.51 or 1.93%.
WSJ pC4 "Shares, Treasurys get gentle push" by Alexandra Scaggs, Min Zeng says bond prices rose and stocks edged higher after Bernanke offered reassurances that the central banks doesn't plan to pull back its easy money policies. American Express and Caterpillar weighed on the Dow as the Dow underperformed other indexes.
NYT p9 "Markets rise slightly after Bernanke remarks" by Reuters says the markets rose after Bernanke said tehre are no firm timelines for scaling back the Fed's economic stimulus program.
IBD pB2 "More techs and breakouts join the market's advance" by David Saito-Chung says the major indexes rose mildly in mixed grade Wed despite data on June housing starts that missed views. The current outlook is still a confirmed uptrend.
AJC pA15 "Stocks edge up on Bernanke" says some soothing words from Bernanke pushed to market to slender gains Wed. American Express and caterpillar held the Dow back.
Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 2014.51 up 2.43 from Tuesday's closing numerator of 2012.08. 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 $67.15 up 8 cents from Tuesday's average of $67.07. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $6580 (DIS/UNH) down 17 cents from Tuesday's median closing price of $65.97. 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 $243 $201,451 - ($201,208).
Wednesday MarketWatch 4:28 by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks The S&P 500 SPX +0.28% rose 4.65 points, or 0.3%, to 1,680.91, with materials pacing sector gains and utilities the only laggard. The Nasdaq Composite COMP +0.32% gained 11.50 points, or 0.3%, to 3,610. In testimony on Capitol Hill, Bernanke said the Fed’s $85 billion in monthly bond buys are “by no means on a preset course” and can be curbed further or extended, depending on the economic climate. The central bank’s stimulus program is meant to keep interest rates down and encourage borrowing. Bernanke’s comments reinforce “what we already know: that the Fed is looking at the broad economy, which is showing signs of improvement,” said Terry Sandven, chief equities strategist at U.S. Bank Wealth Management. U.S. equities are in a holding pattern as the market digests recent gains, with the pattern likely to persist for another couple of weeks as “we await further guidance from companies and from the Fed,” said Sandven, who added that investors will likely learn more about the “timing of the tapering,” or reduced Fed asset purchases, at the next Federal Open Market Committee meeting at the end of the month. The S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA +0.12% rose to record closing highs on Monday, but ended lower on Tuesday. On Wednesday, the blue-chip Dow industrials gained 18.67 points, or 0.1%, to 15,470.52, with DuPont DD +5.28% leading gains. DuPont’s shares rallied 5.3% after CNBC’s Andrew Ross Sorkin reported that Nelson Peltz’s Trian Fund Management LP has acquired a large stake in the chemicals firm. Asked by Sorkin about the stake at the Delivering Alpha conference on Wednesday, Peltz declined to comment. Also in the Dow, shares of Bank of America Corp. BAC +2.80% climbed 2.8% after the bank said second-quarter profit jumped 63%, beating analyst estimates. American Express Co. AXP -1.68% was the top decliner in the Dow, falling 1.9% after the Financial Times cited a draft plan in reporting the European Commission had proposed the introduction of a 0.2% cap on debit-and-credit-card transaction fees. Dow component Caterpillar Inc. CAT -1.70% dropped 1.7% after Jim Chanos of Kynikos Associates said he is shorting the stock. Chanos, speaking at the Delivering Alpha conference, said that even though Caterpillar is a major U.S. company, it is facing “super commodity headwinds.”On the New York Stock Exchange, more than 676 million shares traded. Composite volume topped 3.1 billion. “The stock market has had a bit of a run here, so we may need to do some trading in a range given the strong gains we had in the spring,” said Bruce McCain, chief investment strategist at Key Private Bank.
