Post No. 2,409 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 Oct. 22 and recent Dow 30 components' SEC filings as of Oct. 22.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Tuesday at 15467.66 up 75.46 or 0.49% from Monday's close of 15392.20. Of the Dow components 19 gained and 11 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was IBM up $2.08 and percentage-wise was Disney up 2.07% . The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was United Technologies down $1.49 or 1.38%.
As of the open of the market on Tuesday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C6 of Tuesday's Wall St. Journal is 0.15571590501117. Tuesday's trailing P/E ratio is 17.23 down from Monday's trailing P/E of 17.24 (last year it was 14.22); Tuesday's P/E estimate is 14.13 unchanged from yesterday's P/E estimate of 14.13 (year ago it was 12.59) and today's dividend yield is 2.18 down from yesterday's dividend yield of 2.20 (last year it was 2.57). The Dow's all-time high was 15,676.94 on September 18, 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 2408.56 up 11.76 from Monday's closing numerator of 2396.80. 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 (0.15571590501117) you get the change in today's Dow. A dollar increase or decrease in a Dow stock results in a $6.42 change in the Dow Index.
The average closing price (the closing numerator divided by 30) of Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $80.29 up 40 cents from Monday's average closing price of 79.89. The median closing price of Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $75.96 (NKE/WMT) up 84 cents from Monday's median closing price of $75.12 (HD/WMT). The lowest volume was Travelers and the highest volume was Cisco.
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 $1,176 ($240,856 - $239,681 ) .
MarketWatch 10/22/13 Tues. 4:03 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks rose sharply on Tuesday, with thinking disappointing jobs growth in September would prolong central-bank stimulus lifting the S&P 500 SPX +0.57% to another record. "The Fed was on hold until the end of year before, and today's report confirms it," said Jim Russell, senior equity strategist at US Bank Wealth Management. Hitting a monthly high, the Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA +0.49% added 75.46 points, or 0.5%, to 15,467.66. The S&P 500 SPX +0.57% rose 10.01 points, or 0.6%, to 1,754.67. The Nasdaq Composite COMP +0.24% advanced 9.52 points, or 0.2%, to 3,929.57

rose 5.77 points, or 0.2%, to 3,920.05.“This has been a year of
significant multiple expansion,” said Paul
Karos, a senior portfolio manager for Whitebox Mutual Funds, of the
price-earnings ratio of U.S. equities. But since that expansion has not
coincided with a broad-based earnings revision upward, “it would not be
surprising to see equity markets take a breather,” given the market’s
more than 20% rise so far this year, he said.“We can continue to grind
higher, but it’s a grind, the next sustainable
leg would probably need to come from upwardly revised earnings
estimates, that could be hard to come by,” Karos added.Decliners just
overcame advancers on the New York Stock Exchange, where
678 million shares traded. Composite volume cleared 3 billion shares.On
Tuesday, the government releases the nonfarm-payrolls report for

good momentum going
into the fourth quarter. However, analysts will still need to assess how
much the (government) shutdown hurt the economy,” noted David Kelly,
chief global strategist at J.P. Morgan Funds, in emailed commentary.The
global economy is “still on the mend in the face of the easiest
monetary policy ever implemented by developed-nation central banks. As
the economy improves and earnings rise, this aid will gradually be
reduced, boosting interest rates. Despite recent stock-market gains,
such an environment still supports the idea of an overweight to equities
relative to fixed income around the world,” wrote J.P. Morgan Funds’
Kelly.
