Post No. 2,363 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.
A read of the print editions of Thursday's Wall St. Journal, Financial Times, Investor's News Daily, 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 Wednesday's stock prices and related data in alphabetical order.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average: The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Wednesday at 15326.60 up 135.54 or 0.89% from Tuesday's close of 15191.06. For the year the Dow is up 16.96% . Of the Dow components 25 gained, AT&T and Hewlett-Packard were unchanged and 3 declined, not including Goldman Sachs which was down and Nike and Visa both which were up (these 3 will replace Alcoa, Bank of America, and Hewlett-Packard as of close of market on 9/20). The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was IBM up $4.10 or 2.2% . The biggest decliner dollar-wise was JPMorgan and percentage-wise were JPMorgan and Intel down 0.76 %.
WSJ pC4 "Blue Chips log another triple digit rise" by Alexandra Scaggs says the Dow rose as investor fears re: Syria & a scaling back of Fed stimulus continued to subside. Verizon rose 0.1% as it sold a record setting $49 bil worth of bond to fund the buyout of Vodafone.
USAT p1B "Hot Dow posts a triple triple" by Adam Shell says wave or relief over Syria and the Fed ending stimulus efforts resulted in 3 days of 3 digit point gains.
FT p21 "Apple slide after iPhone launch weighs on US technology stocks" says a slide in Apple weighed on tech stocks leaving he wider US equity market mixed.
NYT pB10 "S&P 500 Index rises for 7th session" by Reuters says the market moved mostly higher Wed as Wall St's nervousness re: possibility of an American military strike on Syria continued to ease.
AJC pA13 "Syria news sustains vibe" by AP says stocks rose due to easing of fears about a conflict in Syria.
IBD pB2 "market weathers sell off in Apple; IBD 50 up 0.5%" by David Saito-Chung says Wednesday's action saw mixed action in lower trade as the current outlook is a confirmed uptrend.
As of the open of the market on Thursday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C6 of Thursday's Wall St. Journal is 0.130216081. Thursday's trailing P/E ratio is 15.99 up from yesterday's trailing P/E ratio of 15.84 (last year it was 14.77); today's P/E estimate is 13.43 unchanged from Wednesday's P/E estimate of 13.43 (year ago it was 12.55) and today's dividend yield is 2.44 down from yesterday's dividend yield of 2.47 (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.
Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1995.77 up 17.63 from Tuesday's closing numerator of 1978.12. 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 Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $66.53 up 59 cents from Tuesday's average of $65.94. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $69.56 (DIS/UNH) up 83 cents from Tuesday's median closing price of $68.73. The lowest volume was 3M 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 $1,763 ($199,577 - $197,812) .
MarketWatch 9/11/13 Weds. 4:18 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks tilted mostly higher on Wednesday, with the Dow industrials tallying a third day of triple-digit gains, as reduced worry about Syria countered Apple Inc.’s sharp drop. President Barack Obama’s decision to delay military action against Syria eased concerns, yet the issue remained on the back burner. “If something were to go wrong, we would be back to focusing on Syria,” said Peter Cardillo, chief market economist at Rockwell Global Capital. Erasing losses and extending gains into a seventh session, the S&P 500 indexSPX +0.31% added 5.14 points, or 0.3%, to end at 1,689.13, with consumer staples the best performing of its 10 major industry groups. The Nasdaq Composite COMP -0.11% lost 4.01 points, or 0.1%, to 3,725.01. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA +0.89% rose 135.54 points, or 0.9%, to 15,326.60, with International Business Machines Corp. IBM -0.60% pacing blue-chip gains, up 2.2%, a day after agreeing to sell its customer care outsourcing business for $505 million to Synnex Corp. SNX +20.07% . Unlike the S&P and the Nasdaq, the Dow does not include AppleAAPL +0.25% , shares of which fell 5.4% a day after the consumer-technology company announced two new models, with analysts criticizing the cost of its lower-priced iPhone, saying it would prove too pricey to succeed in emerging markets. At the start of Wednesday’s session, Apple’s weighting in the Nasdaq Composite was 8.3%, making its impact the largest of its components, according to Nasdaq OMX. Verizon Communications Inc. VZ -0.12% gained 0.1% after the telecommunications giant and Dow component launched the biggest corporate bond sale on record, selling as much as $49 billion in bonds to help finance its $130 billion purchase of Vodafone Group PLC’sUK:VOD +1.08% For every seven stocks falling, roughly eight gained on the New York Stock Exchange, where 657 million shares traded. Composite volume neared 3.1 billion. In an address from Washington Tuesday night, President Barack Obama said he was putting off a request that Congress authorize U.S. strikes targeting the Syrian regime after a deadly chemical-weapons attack last month. Obama said his administration will pursue a Russian proposal for Syria to turn over its chemical weapons to the international community. “Stock markets are ready to pause their recent rally as investors digest the diplomatic solution proposed over dismantling chemical weapons in Syria. The stock market has a way of discounting developing geopolitical situations quickly,” Fred Dickson, chief investment strategist at Davidson Companies, wrote in emailed commentary. “The diplomatic pause by the U.S. is bullish for risk-based assets including stocks, but the risk of unusual or unexpected twists in the process remain, as suggested last night by President Obama,” Dickson added. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note 10_YEAR -1.78% used in determining mortgage rates and other consumer loans fell 6 basis points to 2.908%, while the dollar DXY -0.43% fell against other currencies. On the New York Mercantile Exchange, gold futures for December delivery GCZ3 +0.04% fell 20 cents to settle at $1,363.80 an ounce. The cost of oil also fluctuated, with crude futures for October deliveryCLV3 +0.29% up 17 cents, or 0.2%, to end at $107.56 a barrel. Markets offered little reaction to Commerce-Department data showing wholesale inventories and sales both rose 0.1% in July.
