Post No. 2,472 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 ranking of the Dow 30 components by market capitalization as of Dec. 9, 2013 and a summary of Dow 30 components' SEC filings as of Dec. 9, 2013.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Monday at 16025.53 up 5.33 or 0.03% from Friday's close of 16020.20. Of the Dow components 17 gained, Johnson & Johnson was unchanged and 12 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Chevron up $1.05 and percentage-wise was Ge up 0.93% . The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was McDonald's down $1.08 or 1.12% .
As of the open of the market on Monday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of Monday's Wall St. Journal is 0.15571590501117. Monday's trailing P/E ratio is 16.24 down from Friday's trailing P/E of 16.25 (last year it was 14.62). Monday's P/E estimate is 15.00 down from Friday's P/E estimate of 15.12 (year ago it was 12.52) and Monday's dividend yield is 2.39 up from Friday's dividend yield of 2.19 (last year it was 2.71). The Dow's all-time high was 16,097.33 on November 27, 2013. The 12 year low close for the Dow was on March 9, 2009 when it fell to 6,547.05.
Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 2495.43 up 0.83 from Friday's closing numerator of 2494.60. 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 Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $83.18 up 3 cents from Friday's average closing price of $83.15. The median closing price of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $79.87 (NKE/WMT/) down 3 cents from Friday's median closing price of $79.90. (NKE/WMT). The lowest volume was 3M and the highest volume was Cisco.
If Monday 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 $83 ($249,542 - $249,460).
MarketWatch 12/9/13 Mon. 4:37 pm by Victor Reklaitis says US stocks nudged higher on Monday, sending the S&P 500 to a record close, as investors were largely unfazed by a trio of Federal Reserve officials suggesting a stimulus reduction could come next week. The S&P 500 index SPX +0.18% rose 3.28 points, or 0.2%, to 1,808.37, topping its prior record close achieved on Nov. 27. The Dow Jones Industrial AverageDJIA +0.03% gained 5.33 points, or less than 0.1%, to close at 16,025.53, while the Nasdaq Composite COMP +0.15% advanced 6.23 points, or 0.2%, to 4,068.75. St. Louis Fed President James Bullard floated the idea of a small reduction next week for the Fed’s bond-buying program, which has boosted stocks. Richmond Fed President Jeffrey Lacker said a December taper was on the table. Dallas Fed President Richard Fisher backed a reduction at the “earliest opportunity,” and Fisher also was slated to speak again at 6 p.m. Eastern time on CNBC. Many strategists have said the market is increasingly comfortable with a tapering in bond buys. Seth Masters, chief investment officer for Bernstein Global Wealth Management, said long-term investors should focus on fundamentals rather than the latest Fed speeches. “The impact of the tapering has been much exaggerated,” he said. Monday served as a last-chance saloon for the Fed to send a coordinated message about a stimulus reduction. Fed officials will stop speaking publicly on Tuesday until after their Dec. 17-18 policy-setting meeting.
- Today’s market-moving news: “A small taper might recognize labor market improvement, while still providing the [Fed] the opportunity to carefully monitor inflation during the first half of 2014,” Bullard said in his speech on Monday. He also said the probability of a taper had risen in light of the strengthening of job growth in recent months. On Friday, stocks rallied sharply on a stronger-than-expected November jobs report.
- Today’s movers & shakers: McDonald’s Corp. /quotes/zigman/233369/delayed/quotes/nls/mcd MCD +0.01% lost 1.1%, faring worst among Dow components. The fast-food giant reported mixed November same-store sales, with U.S. sales down 0.8%. Sysco Corp. /quotes/zigman/242525/delayed/quotes/nls/syy SYY +0.16% jumped 9.6%, performing best among S&P 500 stocks after it agreed to acquire fellow food-services distributor US Foods. Read more in the Movers & Shakers column.
- Other markets: Asian stocks closed up after encouraging Chinese trade data, while European equities finished broadly higher. Gold gained, while oil prices edged down.
- What strategists are saying: The Fed may no longer be the factor that it once was, suggests Todd Salamone, senior vice president of research at Schaeffer’s Investment Research. A “takeaway from Friday’s rally is that a Fed tapering is now factored into the marketplace,” he wrote in a note.

Sat. FT p13 "Wall Street" says US stocks climbed Fri halting the S&P's 5 session losing streak following a stronger than expected payrolls report.

MarketWatch
12/6/13 Fri. 4:25 pm by Victor Reklaitis says US stocks
rallied on Friday after a
stronger-than-anticipated monthly jobs report, with the S&P 500
and
Dow industrials snapping a five-session losing streak.But the two
indexes still finished down for the week, as each halted an eight-week
winning streak.The jobs report, which showed the U.S. economy created 203,000 positions in November
as the unemployment rate fell to 7.0%, sparked fresh talk that the
Federal Reserve could scale back its bond-buying program later this
month. Economists polled by MarketWatch had expected November nonfarm
payroll gains of 180,000 compared to 204,000 in October, and a drop in
the unemployment rate to 7.2% from 7.3%.Earlier this week, encouraging
economic data generated tapering fears
that weighed on stocks, but some strategists said that at least on
Friday, traders treated good economic news as simply good news. “I think
sentiment is finally changing in the stock market,” said Mike Serio,
regional chief investment officer for Wells Fargo Private Bank. He told
MarketWatch that the jobs report was strong enough that the mindset
among investors has shifted to focusing on economic
fundamentals.Strategists at ING U.S. Investment Management made a
similar point.
“Perhaps the market is finally getting comfortable with tapering and
getting back to normal — where good news is good news,” they wrote in a
note.The S&P 500
SPX
+1.12%
rose 20.06 points, or 1.1%, to close at 1,805.09, climbing back above
the milestone level of 1,800 that it first cleared last month. The
benchmark index scored its best daily advance since Nov. 8 and finished
down less than 0.1% for the week.The Dow Jones Industrial Average
DJIA
+1.26%
gained 198.69 points, or 1.3%, to close at 16,020.20, achieving its
biggest daily gain since Oct. 16 and reconquering its own milestone
level of 16,000. The blue-chip index ended the week with a 0.4% decline.The Nasdaq Composite
COMP
+0.73%
jumped 29.36 points, or 0.7%, to finish at 4,062.52. The tech-heavy
index rose less than 0.1% for the week for its fourth-straight weekly
gain. It’s trading at levels last seen in September 2000.The University
of Michigan/Thomson Reuters consumer-sentiment index for
December beat expectations, coming in at 82.5. Economists polled by
MarketWatch expected a reading of 76.5.Trading volumes were typical on
Friday, with New York Stock Exchange
composite volume about 99% of its 30-day average, and Nasdaq composite
volume about 97% of its 30-day average, according to FactSet data.
