Post No. 2,329 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 as of August 21, 2013 and recent Dow 30 components' SEC filings as of August 21, 2013.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Thursday at 14963.74 up 66.19 or 0.44% from Wednesday's close of 14897.55. Of the Dow components 24 gained and 6 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was 3M up $1.25 and percentage-wise was Microsoft up $% . The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Hewlett-Packard down $3.16 or 12.45%.
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 opening trailing P/E ratio is 16.22 down from yesterday's opening trailing P/E ratio of 16.33 (last year it was 13.95); today's opening P/E estimate is 13.66 unchanged from Wednesday's opening P/E estimate of 13.66 (year ago it was 12.64) and today's opening dividend yield is 2.49 up from yesterday's opening dividend yield of 2.47 (last year it was 2.55). The Dow's all-time high was 15,658.36 on August 2, 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 1948.52 up 8.62 from Wednesday's closing numerator of 1939.90. 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 $64.95 up 29 cents from Wednesday's average of $64.66. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $66.81 (DIS/UNH) up 31 cents from Wednesday's median closing price of $66.50. 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 made $862 ($194,852 - $193,990) .
MarketWatch 8/22/13 Thurs. 4:18 pm by Laura Mandaro says U.S. stocks closed higher Thursday in a low-volume session. A typical summer lull was exacerbated by a trading glitch that halted trades in Nasdaq-listed stocks across multiple exchanges for more than three hours. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA +0.44% ended a 6-session loss streak to gain 66.19 points, or 0.4%, to 14,963.74, boosted by better European and Chinese manufacturing data and data showing continued improvement in the U.S. labor market. The S&P 500 SPX +0.86% rose 14.16 points, or 0.9%, to 1,656.96. Energy and industrials led gains across all 10 sectors. The Nasdaq Composite COMP +1.08% rose 38.92 points, or 1.1%, to 3,638.71, adding to gains posted before the noon-time halt.

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.

MarketWatch 8/21/13 Wed. 4:31 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks ended sharply lower Wednesday, losing grip on a late-afternoon recovery, as investors weighed the Federal Reserve’s signaling that it remained on course to curb its monthly bond purchases by the end of the year.
Fed
officials are “broadly comfortable” with Chairman Ben Bernanke’s plan
to begin reducing the asset buying later this year so long as the
economy improves, with a few Federal Open Market Committee members
indicating tapering might be called for soon, according to the minutes
released Wednesday afternoon. “The market has not fully backed in the
prospect of it actually occurring in September,” said Mark Luschini,
chief investment strategist at Janney Montgomery Scott. Extending
losses into a sixth session, the Dow industrials /quotes/zigman/627449 DJIA -0.70%
fell as much as 122.15 points in the immediate of the Fed release,
only to repeal those losses and then resume them. Finishing below
15,000 for the first time since July 3, the Dow ended at 14,897.55,
down 105.44 points, or 0.7%. The S&P 500 index SPX -0.58%
lost 9.55 points, or 0.6%, to 1,642.80, with utilities and
telecommunications the worst performing of its major sectors, all of
which closed lower.
The expectation voiced by Bernanke in June that
the central bank would curb its $85 billion in monthly bond purchases
by year-end has upended global markets, especially hitting emerging
markets, which had gained significantly from the increased liquidity.
Views that Federal Open Market Committee would signal a September taper
hit currencies including the Turkish lira and Indian rupee, which
declined to a record low. “I’m inclined to think it’s going to come in
September, but it’s also going to be tapering lite,” said Luschini, who
now put the odds of the reduced asset purchases coming next month at
60% to 70%. “Net-net, the market remains jittery, and will trade from
economic-data point to economic-data point. The big one is going to be
the labor report that comes out before the next Fed meeting,” he added
of the monthly nonfarm payrolls report.
Benchmark 10-year Treasury yields 10_YEAR +2.62% leapt 8 basis point to 2.895%. Staples Inc.SPLS -15.29% fell 15% after the office-supply retailer reported disappointing results and trimmed its 2013 earnings and revenue forecasts. Lowe’s Cos Inc.LOW +3.92%
rallied 3.9% after the home-improvement chain reported a
larger-than-estimated rise in quarterly profit and sales and hiked its
yearly outlook. Shares of Target Corp.TGT -3.61% slipped 3.6% after the discount retailer reported a drop in second-quarter profit. Thursday's Dow News followed by Wednesday's Closing Dow Numbers:
