Post No. 2,447 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 Fri. at 15961.70 up 85.48 or 0.54% from Thursday's close of 15876.22. For the week the Dow was up 199.92 or 1.27% from last Friday's close of 15,761.78. Of the Dow components 25 gained and 5 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Exxon up $2.05 or 2.2 % . The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was McDonald's down 64 cents or 0.66%.
As of the open of the market on Friday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C5 of Friday's Wall St. Journal is 0.15571590501117. Friday's trailing P/E ratio is 17.78 up from Thursday's trailing P/E of 17.73 (last year it was 13.70). Friday's P/E estimate is 14.70 unchanged from Thursday's P/E estimate of 14.70 (year ago it was 12.15) and Friday's dividend yield is 2.15 up from Thursday's dividend yield of 2.13 (last year it was 2.82). The Dow's all-time high was 15,961.70 on November 15, 2013, today. The 12 year low close for the Dow was on March 9, 2009 when it fell to 6,547.05.
Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 2485.49 up 13.31 from Thursday's closing numerator of 2472.18. 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 Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $82.85 up 44 cents from Thursday's average closing price of 82.41. The median closing price of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $79.62 (HD/WMT & NKE/) up 61 cents from Thursday's median closing price of $79.01 (HD/WMT). The lowest volume was Travelers and the highest volume was Cisco.
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 $1,331 ($248,549 - $247,218).
MarketWatch 11/15/13 Fri. 4:38 pm
by Victor Reklaitis says U.S.stocks stepped higher on Friday, lifting the S&P
500 and Dow industrials to record closes again, as investors continued
to find encouragement in Janet Yellen’s support for the Federal
Reserve’s stimulus efforts.The S&P 500 index
SPX
+0.42%
climbed 7.56 points, or 0.4%, to finish at 1,798.18.The Dow Jones Industrial Average
DJIA
+0.54%
jumped 85.48 points, or 0.5%, to close at 15,961.70. Exxon Mobil Corp.
XOM
-1.09%
fared best among Dow components, rising 2.2% on news of Warren Buffett’s conglomerate establishing a stake in the oil major.The S&P 500 and Dow achieved their sixth weekly gains in a row,
rising 1.6% and 1.3%, respectively. The S&P 500 has posted its
longest winning streak since February.The Nasdaq Composite
COMP
+0.33%
tacked on 13.23 points, or 0.3%, to end at 3,985.97. The tech-heavy
index gained 1.7% for the week, posting its first up week in three
weeks. It has risen for six straight sessions.On Friday, the market also absorbed some softer-than-expected economic
data, such as a weaker-than-anticipated reading on New York state
manufacturing, a dip in industrial production and a bigger-than-expected
drop in import prices.At a confirmation hearing on Thursday, Yellen, the nominee to lead the
Fed, defended the central bank’s aggressive bond-buying program, known
as quantitative easing or QE, and tried to ease concerns that bubbles were forming in the equity markets. That boosted stocks globally on Thursday and continued to contribute to positive sentiment on Friday. “Bulls have been given a boost by dovish comments this week from Fed
chair nominee Janet Yellen, indicating that she believes the Fed has
more work to do in order to strengthen the economy and suggesting that
QE may continue for some time to come,” said Colin Cieszynski, senior
market analyst at CMC Markets, in emailed comments on Friday.“Soft Empire manufacturing and industrial production data this morning
support the case for delayed tapering,” Cieszynski added, referring to
when the Fed might reduce its bond-buying program that has boosted
stocks. He said reports of Chinese reforms have “also encouraged traders.”
-
Friday’s key headlines:
A manufacturing index produced by the New York Fed unexpectedly turned negative. In addition, industrial production dipped 0.1% in October, slightly worse than forecasts, and prices paid for imported goods declined more than expected. In China, the reforms include a loosening of the one-child rule, an abolition of re-education through labor and easing of controls on prices for energy, water, telecom and other services.
-
The buzz:
Don’t get too caught up in the all-time highs is what Steve Rees, head of U.S. equity strategy for J.P. Morgan Private Bank, suggested when asked about the record closes
for the Dow and S&P 500. “We’re not as focused on the charts. We’re
looking at the fundamentals of the equity markets,” he said in a phone
interview on Friday. His team is “still very comfortable” being
overweight U.S. equities and expects corporate earnings will improve in
2014. FactSet said the S&P 500 forward 12-month price-to-earnings
ratio reached 15.0 as of Thursday’s close, above that valuation metric’s
five-year average of 13.0 and its 10-year average of 14.0. But that’s
below its 15-year average of 16.2 and its peak level of 25 hit in the
late 1990s and early 2000s.

The following are excerpts from Fri. morning blog:
A read of the print editions of Friday'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 Thursday's closing stock prices and related data in alphabetical order.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average: The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Thurs. at 15876.22 up 54.59 or 0.35% from Wednesday's close of 15761.78. For the year the Dow is up 21.15%. Of the Dow components 22 gained and 8 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Boeing up $1.92 and percentage-wise was Home Depot up 1.73 % . The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Cisco down $2.63 or 10.96%.
WSJ pC4 "Stocks hit highs after Yellen talks" by Chris Dieterich says the Dow and S&P 500 hit new highs after Yellen defended the central bank's economic stimulus efforts but tech stocks were hurt by weak fin'l results from Cisco, which is charted under Bad News due to 1Q profit dropping 4.6%.
IBD pB2 "Stocks close with gains; Cisco weighs on Nasdaq" by Ken Shreve says a sell off in Cisco did not spead much as the market seemed to focus instead on testimony from Fed Vice chair Janet Yellen at her Senate confirmation hearing. She had soothing words for the market that she would continue the Fed's stimulus policies. Thursday's action was fresh highs in mixed volume as the current outlook is a confirmed uptrend.
NYT pB4 "Shares rise as Yellen reassures on stimulus" says the stock market rose Thurs whle the Dow and the S&P hit new highs after Yellen said she would continue the Fed's stimulus policies.
FT p21 "Cisco pulls tech stocks lower after warning of revenue fall" says Cisco weighed on tech sector after its warning that its rev would be hit in the current quarter hit its market value by 11%. Walmart rose 0.3% despite lower than expected quarterly sales. IBM was down 0.7%.
Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 2472.18 up 8.50 from Wednesday's closing numerator of 2463.68. 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 Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $82.41 up 29 cents from Wednesday's average closing price of 82.12. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $79.01 (HD/WMT) up 63 cents from Wednesday's median closing price of $78.38 (NKE/WMT). The lowest volume was Travelers and the highest volume was Cisco.
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 $850 ($247,218 - $246,386).
MarketWatch 11/14/13 Thurs. 4:48 pm by Victor Reklaitis says U.S.stocks on Thursday closed at record highs for a second day in a row after Janet Yellen, who is nominated to lead the Federal Reserve, vigorously defended the central bank’s bond-buying program. The S&P 500 SPX +0.48% rose 8.62 points, or 0.5%, to finish at 1,790.62, achieving a record close. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA +0.35% gained 54.59 points, or 0.4%, to end at 15,876.22, also scoring a record close. The Nasdaq Composite COMP +0.18% added 7.16 points, or 0.2%, to finish at 3,972.74. At a Senate Banking Committee hearing, Yellen said that the benefits outweigh the costs of the Fed’s asset purchases, which aim to boost economic growth. Kim Caughey Forrest, a portfolio manager and senior equity analyst at Fort Pitt Capital Group, noted that “the markets are probably comforted by what she said.” “She came across as a very capable candidate, and markets find that reassuring,” Forrest said. Trades also assessed weaker-than-expected jobless claims and a big earnings disappointment from Cisco Systems Inc. On the plus side, Japanese economic growth data were better than expected. Thursday’s jump came after the S&P 500 and Dow rallied to record closes on Wednesday, with some observers pinning the move on speculation that Yellen’s testimony would be positive for stocks.
- Today’s market-moving news: Yellen defended the Fed’s stimulus efforts that have boosted stocks and tried several times to ease concerns that bubbles are forming. “She seems to be following the ‘Bernanke Playbook’ word for word,” said Tom Di Galoma at ED&F Man Capital Markets in an email. In U.S. economic news, weekly jobless claims edged down, but not by as much as economists expected. The U.S. trade deficit increased more than expected, while productivity rose less than anticipated.
- The buzz: Fort Pitt’s Forrest said “the market’s a little ahead of itself,” so she was somewhat uncomfortable with Yellen saying that stock prices are not bubble like. Meanwhile, a Tell blog post highlighted some mostly bullish comments from DoubleLine Capital’s Jeffrey Gundlach and Goldman’s Abby Joseph Cohen. Gundlach says U.S. stocks are “the only game in town,” but he won’t buy high, while Cohen says there’s still value in U.S. stocks.
- Today’s movers & shakers: Cisco Systems Inc. CSCO +0.16% slid 11% after its earnings report late Wednesday, making it the worst performer in the Dow, the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq 100. Wal-Mart Stores Inc. /WMT +0.23% closed up 0.2% following its quarterly earnings report.
- Other markets: Gold prices settled higher for the first time in six sessions as Yellen offered her take on the precious metal. Crude-oil futures settled lower on the Nymex, while the dollar traded mostly higher against other major currencies. Asian stocks closed higher after data released overnight showed the Japanese economy expanded at an annualized pace of 1.9% in the third quarter, beating forecasts. European equities also rose. Growth in the euro zone slowed to 0.1% in the third quarter, but that matched forecasts.
