Post No. 2,312 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 15612.13 down 46.23 or 0.30% from Friday's close of 15658.36. Of the Dow components 10 gained and 20 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was UnitedHealh up $1.08 or 1.49% . The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was United Technologies down $1.13 or 1.05%.
As of the open of the market on Monday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C5 of Monday's Wall St. Journal is 0.130216081. Monday's trailing P/E ratio is 16.83 up from Friday's opening trailing P/E ratio of 16.68 (last year it was 14.28); Monday's P/E estimate is 13.90 unchanged from Friday's opening P/E estimate of 13.90 (year ago it was 12.55) and Monday's dividend yield is 2.35 down from Friday's opening dividend yield of 2.37 (last year it was 2.58). 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.
Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 2032.95 down 6.02 from Friday's losing numerator of 2038.97. 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 $67.76 down 21 cents from Friday's average of $67.97. The median closing price of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $69.68 (DIS/UNH) up 29 cents from Friday's median closing price of $69.39. The lowest volume was Travelers 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 $602 ($203,897 - $203,295).
MarketWatch 8/5/13 Mon. 4:18 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks mostly fell on Monday, with benchmark index pulling away from record highs, as Wall Street considered a report indicating better-than-expected growth in the service sector and a Fed official’s remarks that the central bank is closer to curbing its asset purchases. Equities are “due for a pause or a period of consolidation, as we digest recent gains and as we gain visibility into upcoming headwinds,” said Terry Sandven, chief equities strategist at U.S. Bank Wealth Management. Fed Bank of Dallas President Richard Fisher, one of the more ardent critics of quantitative easing, told an audience in Portland, Ore., that investors should not count on the Fed to continue its $85 billion in monthly bond purchases indefinitely.
“Fed officials are reporting what we already know, that
they are entertaining when to ease quantitative easing,” said Sandven. Fisher’s speech followed an upbeat report on U.S. service
industries in July. The Institute for Supply Management’s nonmanufacturing
index jumped
to 56.0% in July from 52.2% the prior month. “The economy in general continues to show pockets of
strength,” and the services index at a five-month high, along with last week’s
manufacturing
reading, “suggest we are seeing improving conditions,” offered Sandven. Recouping from what began as a 73.53-point fall from
Friday’s record finish, the Dow Jones Industrial AverageDJIA -0.30% lost 46.23
points, or 0.3%, to 15,612.13. United Technologies Corp. UTX -1.05% paced the
losses that included two thirds of the index’s 30 components. The Obama administration's decision to overturn an international trade ruling
against Apple promises to upend long-running battles over intellectual property
in the smartphone market. The S&P 500 index SPX -0.15% shed 2.53
points, or 0.2%, to 1,707.14. Utilities and industrials paced sector declines,
while technology and consumer staples performed the best among the index’s 10
major industry groups. Cliffs Natural Resources Inc. CLF +0.40% rose 2% after
the mining company late Friday said
it had reached a tentative deal with the United Steelworkers Union on a
three-year labor contract covering about 300 workers at its Bloom Lake mine in
Fermont, Quebec. Tyson Foods Inc.’s TSN +0.24% shares jumped
4.1% after the meat processor reported third-quarter profit that exceeded Wall
Street’s expectations and projected 2014 sales above estimates. Fossil Group Inc. FOSL -6.04% fell 6% after
Barclays downgraded the fashion-accessories maker to underweight from equal
weight. Qualcomm Inc. QCOM +0.03% retreated 0.8%
after Piper Jaffray Cos. downgraded the supplier of semiconductors for mobile
phones to neutral from overweight. Facebook Inc.FB -0.05% climbed 3%
after Piper Jaffray hiked its price target for shares of the social-networking
company to $46 from $38. The Nasdaq Composite COMP +0.09% added 3.36
points, or nearly 0.1%, to 3,692.95. For every two shares gaining, roughly three fell on the
New York Stock Exchange, where almost 533 million issues exchanged hands.
Composite volume surpassed 2.5 billion. Fisher “has a tendency to be a little less dovish than
[Federal Reserve Chairman Ben] Bernanke,” Randy Frederick, managing director of
active trading and derivatives at Charles Schwab, said, tongue-in-cheek, of
Fisher, after the central banker’s comments Monday.
Fisher’s remarks “could create another bit of angst among
people concerned about tapering,” Frederick added of the continuing debate over
the timing and pace of possible reductions in the Fed’s $85 billion in monthly
bond purchases. The dollar DXY -0.08% edged higher
against the currencies of major U.S. trading partners and the yield on the
10-year Treasury 10_YEAR +1.38% climbed 4 basis
points to 2.642%. Crude-oil futures CLU3 -0.48% declined 38
cents, or 0.4%, to $106.56 a barrel and gold futures GCZ3 -0.62% slipped $8.10,
or 0.6%, to finish the session at $1,302.40 an ounce on the New York Mercantile
Exchange. Ahead of Monday’s open, Hub International Ltd., a global
insurance brokerage, said it would be acquired by funds advised by
private-equity investment firm Hellman & Friedman LLC in a deal valued at
$4.4 billion.Wall Street on Friday
had the Dow industrials and S&P 500 hitting record-high closes as bonds
rallied and the dollar fell.

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 & 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 Friday's stock prices and related data in alphabetical order.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average: The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Friday at 15658.36 up 30.34 or 0.19% from Thursday's close of 15628.02. For the week the Dow was up 99.53 or 0.64% from last Friday's close of 15558.83. For the year the Dow is up 19.49%. Of the Dow components 18 gained and 12 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Home Depot up $1.59 and percentage-wise was Hewlett-Packard up 2.94% . The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Chevron $1.49 and percentage-wise was UnitedHealth down 1.23%.
IBD pB8 "Indexes reverse higher; leaders still acting well" by Juan Carlos Arancibia says the stock market reversed higher Fri capping the week at new highs as is uptrend remained unshaken. Friday's action saw indexes reverse higher as volume falls. The current outlook is a confirmed uptrend.
Sat. WSJ pB5 "Dow adds 6th week of gains" by Matt Jarzemsky, Min Zeng, Carolyn Gui says the Dow edged higher capping a 6th straight weekly advance as investors shrugged off a weaker thane expected reading on July jobs growth in favor of a Goldilocks read on a gradually expanding US economy. Bank fo America slipped 11 cents after disclosing inquiries from regulators over the bank's activities during the fin'l crisis.
Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 2038.97 up 3.95 from Thursday's losing numerator of 2035.02. 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 $67.97 up 14 cents from Thursday's average of $67.83. The median closing price of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $69.39 (DIS/UNH) up 13 cents from Thursday's median closing price of $69.26. 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 $395 ($203,897 - $203,502).
MarketWatch 8/2//13 Fri. 4:22 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks tallied small gains on Friday, lifting the Dow industrials and S&P 500 to record closes, as bonds rallied and the dollar fell after the July jobs report fell short of forecasts. Treasurys rallied after the jobs report, sending the yield on the benchmark 10-year note 10_YEAR -3.77% down 11 basis points to 2.604%. The dollarDXY -0.52% fell against the currencies of major U.S. trading partners. The Labor Department reported the economy created 162,000 jobs in July and the unemployment rate fell to 7.4%. Economists polled by MarketWatch had forecast growth of 180,000 jobs and some analysts had grown even more optimistic, calling for a gain of more than 220,000. The U.S. unemployment rate ticked down to 7.4 % in July, Russia's decision to grant asylum to Edward Snowden left American officials seething, and a look at today's market action including Dell's new deal. “The jobs report was very ho-hum; it didn’t really change the narrative. The only reason people are disappointed is because expectations were raised so much,” said Dan Greenhaus, chief global strategist at BTIG LLC.. In a speech Friday afternoon, St. Louis Federal Reserve President James Bullard said the central bank needs to see ”more data” before deciding whether to reduce its $85 billion in monthly bond purchases. Bullard is a “centrist, so to speak, so for him to say we need to wait until we get more data is not unimportant information,” said Greenhaus. After trading lower for most of the day, U.S. stocks erased losses in the afternoon to end higher. Erasing a 69-point drop, the Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA +0.19% gained 30.34 points, or 0.2%, at 15,658.36, its 30th record close this year and leaving it up 0.6% on the week. The blue-chip index on Thursday hit an all-time intraday high of 15,650.69 and finished at 15,628.02. A day after clearing 1,700 for the first time and ahead 1.1% from last Friday’s close, the S&P 500 index /SPX +0.16% climbed 2.80 points, or 0.2%, to 1,709.67, its 25th record finish this year. The Nasdaq Composite COMP +0.38% rose 13.84 points, or 0.4%, to 3,689.59, giving it a 2.1% weekly gain. The technology-heavy index on Thursday ended at a more than 13-year high of 3,676.78, nearly 1,400 points from its all-time closing high of 5,048.62 set on March 10, 2000. Advancers pulled just ahead of decliners on the New York Stock Exchange, where 676 million shares traded. Composite volume cleared 3.1 billion. Trading in some Treasury futures contracts came to a brief halt just ahead of Friday’s jobs report, after big orders hit, triggering a five-second pause, the CME Group Inc. confirmed. Gaining 2.1% for the week, crude-oil futures CLU3 -1.10% for September delivery fell 95 cents Friday, or 0.9%, to $106.94 a barrel.
