Post No. 2,435 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 Wednesday at 15746.88 up 128.66 or 0.82% from Tuesday's close of 15618.22. Of the Dow components 26 gained and 4 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Chevron up $2.69 and percentage-wise was Microsoft up 4.2% . The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Boeing down 48 cents and percentage-wise was Pfizer down 0.86%.
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 0.15571590501117. Wednesday's trailing P/E ratio is 17.51 down from Tuesday's trailing P/E of 17.54 (last year it was 14.47); Wednesday's P/E estimate is 14.70 unchanged from yesterday's P/E estimate of 14.70 (year ago it was 12.37) and today's dividend yield is 2.14 unchanged from yesterday's dividend yield of 2.14 (last year it was 2.56). The Dow's all-time high was 15,746.88 on November 6, 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 2452.04 up 20.03 from Tuesday's closing numerator of 2432.01. 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 Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $81.73 up 66 cents from Tuesday's average closing price of 81.07. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $77.46 (NKE/WMT) up 16 cents from Tuesday's median closing price of $77.30 (NKE/WMT). The lowest volume was 3Ms and the highest volume was Microsoft.
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 $2,003 ($245,204 - $243,201).
MarketWatch 11/6/13 Wed. 4:45 pm by Victor Reklaitis says U.S. stocks finished mostly higher on Wednesday, with the Dow industrials achieving a closing high as blue-chip Microsoft jumped 4%.
The gains came after European equities advanced, helped by factors such as a strong reading on U.K. factories and hopes the European Central Bank may take further easing measures on
Thursday. Strategists said there was no specific U.S. headline that
triggered buying, suggesting the backdrop for stocks simply remains
supportive.The Dow Jones Industrial Average
DJIA
+0.82%
climbed 128.66 points, or 0.8%, to end at 15,746.88, topping its prior
record close on Oct. 29. The blue-chip index also achieved an intraday
record of 15,750.29, finishing just below that level. Microsoft
MSFT
-0.26%
performed best among Dow components, gaining on news of progress in its search for a new CEO.The broader S&P 500
SPX
+0.43%
advanced 7.52 points, or 0.4%, to close at 1,770.49. The benchmark
index was on track to top its Oct. 29 record close, but didn’t manage to
do so after paring some gains. It also held below its intraday peak of
1,775.22, which it hit Oct. 30. Consumer staples and utilities fared
best among S&P sectors Wednesday, while consumer discretionary and
health care underperformed.But Microsoft couldn’t lift the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite
COMP
-0.20%
, which erased an earlier gain. The tech-heavy index closed down by 7.92
points, or 0.2%, at 3,931.95, as heavyweight Apple Inc.
AAPL
-0.20%
dipped 0.3%. Social-media stocks also weighed on the Nasdaq. Polya Lesova takes a look at which stocks traders will be watching
during market action, including Tesla, Abercrombie & Fitch, and
Time Warner. Photo: Getty Images.Mark Luschini, chief investment strategist at Janney Montgomery Scott, said the U.K. factories report helped overseas markets, but “there’s no real U.S.-related event” that inspired the bulls.He suggested the “underlying backdrop” for stocks is just staying
positive. In addition to Wednesday’s advances, he pointed to stocks
paring most of their losses by Tuesday’s close.
“That’s indicative of a market that’s biased to grind upward,” Luschini said.Sandven at U.S. Bank also emphasized an encouraging environment for
stocks. He cited factors such as a generally positive third-quarter
earnings season and constructive investor sentiment, as well as fair
valuations and continued expectations the Federal Reserve will hold off
until March to taper its bond-buying program. But Sandven also sounded a cautious note, saying a pullback of about 4%
for the S&P 500 to its 50-day moving average, a key chart level,
would be constructive. Sandven added that might not happen in November
or December, given the market generally performs well in those months.
“I just think we’re a little bit ahead of ourselves,” he said. “A modest pullback would be healthy.”
Wednesday’s U.S. economic calendar was light. An index of leading
economic indicators for September rose 0.7%, matching expectations.Ahead of the week’s highlight — Friday’s jobs report — investors will be
focused on the ECB meeting and U.S. GDP data, both expected on
Thursday. Some economists anticipate that some sort of easing measures
will be announced by the ECB, though most are not expecting an
interest-rate cut until December.Social-media company Twitter Inc.
TWTR
0.00%
is expected to price its initial public offering late Wednesday. In a MarketWatch poll, 49% of respondents said they would like to buy Twitter shares. On the earnings front, shares of Tesla Motors Inc.
TSLA
-0.32%
dived and triggered a short-sale circuit-breaker after the electric-car maker only delivered 5,500 Model S units in the third quarter. The stock closed down 14.5%. Humana Inc.
HUM
-0.03%
rose 2% after the health insurer’s quarterly report indicated that
membership continued to increase, while Abercrombie & Fitch
ANF
-0.09%
fell 13.5% after the teen-apparel retailer late Tuesday said same-store sales sank. European stocks rallied, recouping prior-day losses, with the euro zone composite and services purchasing managers’ indexes climbing from initial estimates reported for October. Asia markets were mixed, with a weaker yen supporting Tokyo stocks.

*************************
The following are excerpts from Wed. morning's Dow:
A read of the print editions of Wednesday's Wall St. Journal, Financial Times, Investor's News Daily, New York Times, USA Today, Atlanta Journal & 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 Tuesday's stock prices and related data in alphabetical order.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average: The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Tuesday at 15618.22 down 20.9 or 0.13% from Monday's close of 15639.12. For the year the Dow is up 19.19%. Of the Dow components 11 gained, Intel was unchanged and 18 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Verizon up 95 cents and percentage-wise was Cisco up 2.15 % . The biggest decliner dollar-wise was IBM down $2.42 and percentage-wise was AT&T down 2.52%.
WSJ pC4 "Stocks edge lower ahead of jobs data" by Kaitlyn Kiernan, Tomi Kilgore says stocks closed mostly lower but well above early lows as investors digested a stronger than expected reading on the US services industry while looking ahead to key jobs data later in the week.
NYT pB5 "Market takes a breather after recent gains" & AJC pA17 "Small retreat for Dow, S&P" by AP says the market took a break from its record breaking run on Tues when some weak corp earnings held the market back.
FT p21 "Wall Street" says US stock indices were little changed Tues ahead of data later in the week that investors hoped would give a lcarer indication of the strength of the US economy.
IBD pB4 "Market shows resilience as early losses evaporate" by Ken Shreve says stocks turned in a resilient performance Tues as major averages ended well off session lows as the current outlook is a confirmed uptrend.
Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 2432.01 down 3.25 from Monday's closing numerator of 2435.26. 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 $81.07 down 11 cents from Monday's average closing price of 81.18. The median closing price of Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $77.30 (NKE/WMT) up 14 cents from Monday's median closing price of $77.16 (HD/WMT). The lowest volume was Travelers and the highest volume was Microsoft.
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 lost $325 ($243,526 - $243,201).
MarketWatch 11/5/13 Tues. 4:08 pm by Victor Reklaitis says U.S. stocks mostly closed a little lower on Tuesday, as investors weighed a better-than-expected reading on the U.S. services sector against lower euro-zone growth forecasts. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA -0.13% fell 20.90 points, or 0.1%, to 15,618.22, after the blue-chip index wiped out the bulk of a 117-point intraday drop. The S&P 500 SPX -0.28% lost 4.96 points, or 0.3%, to finish at 1,762.97, while the Nasdaq Composite COMP +0.08% rose 3.27 points, or less than 0.1%, to 3,939.86. The Dow and S&P 500 both snapped two-day winning streaks, while the Nasdaq stretched its winning streak to three sessions in a row.
