WSJ pC4 "Investors relieved as Syria tensions ease" by Dan Strumpf saysinvestors breathed a sigh of relief pushing oil prices to a one week low and boosting stocks after overtures by Russia and Syria appeared to stay a US military strike.
IBD pB4 "Stocks advance broadly as leaders keep rallying" by Juan Carlos Arancibia says the stock market pressed on with its Sept rally as Tuesday's action saw techs lead broad gains. The current outlook is a confirmed up trend.

As of the open of the market on Wednesday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C6 of Wednesday's Wall St. Journal is 0.130216081. Wednesday's trailing P/E ratio is 15.84 up from yesterday's trailing P/E ratio of 15.51 (last year it was 14.76); today's P/E estimate is 13.43 unchanged from Tuesday's P/E estimate of 13.43 (year ago it was 12.55) and today's dividend yield is 2.47 down from yesterday's dividend yield of 2.48 (last year it was 2.57). 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.
Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1978.12 up 16.68 from Monday's closing numerator of 1961.46. 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 $65.94 up 56 cents from Monday's average of $65.38. The median closing price of Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $68.73 (DIS/UNH) up 81 cents from Monday's median closing price of $67.92. The lowest volume was 3M 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 $1,668 ($197,812 - $196,146) .
MarketWatch
9/10/13 Tues. 4:19 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks rallied on Tuesday, with the S&P 500
continuing its longest stretch of gains since mid-July, after upbeat
data from China and amid heightened diplomacy on Syria.“The market is happy we’re not going to have to go in and shoot
missiles,” said JJ Kinahan, chief strategist at TD Ameritrade in
Chicago, referring to Syria. “And now we’re in spitting distance of
1,700; we may go up and test that over the next few days,” he said of
the S&P 500 Index

.Extending gains into a sixth consecutive session, the index rose 12.28

session near four-week highs, while the Nasdaq Composite

AAPL

lost 2.3% after the consumer-technology company unveiled its new
flagship iPhone 5S, along with a less costly but colorful iPhone 5C. “I
would say the real summary is ‘buy the rumor, sell the news’ as the
stock is up almost 10% over the last month,” said Kinahan about Apple.For
every share falling, nearly two gained on the New York Stock Exchange,
where 773 million shares traded.Composite volume neared 3.6 billion.“The
markets are right now breathing a sigh of relief that we’re moving
closer to a diplomatic solution as opposed to a military solution in
Syria,” said Darrell Cronk, regional chief investment officer for Wells
Fargo Private Bank. “Any military solution would cause some angst” by
creating uncertainty as to its scale and duration, Cronk said.Paul
Vigna and Barry Ritholtz discuss the aftermath of the 2008
financial crisis, and David Blitzer of S&P Dow Jones Indices
looks
at changes to the Industrial Average.President Barack Obama is scheduled
to detail his plans regarding Syria in a nationally televised address
at 9 p.m. Eastern.“Overnight, we had really strong economic data out of China, both their
industrial production numbers and their retail-sales numbers were up
double digits over year-ago numbers. That has Asian markets up nicely,”
Cronk added of reports from Beijing’s National Bureau of Statistics.
The data had China’s industrial output rising 10.4% in August from a year ago and retail sales gaining 13.4%. Wall Street finished higher on Monday after
China reported export growth that surpassed expectations.Equities are
benefitting amid an “asset redeployment as people get out
of their gold positions,” said Kinahan at TD Ameritrade. “Gold is
probably selling off today and yesterday on Syria news. Gold, oil and
the U.S. dollar tend to be affected by geopolitical risk,” said Cronk at
Wells Fargo.Gold futures
