Post No. 2,524 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 16257.94 down 179.11 or 1.09% from Friday's close of 16437.05. Of the Dow components only Merck gained and 29 declined. The only and therefore biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Merck up $3.24 or 6.5%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was IBM down $3.13 and percentage-wise was Microsoft down 2.94%.
Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 2531.62 down 27.89 from Friday's closing numerator of 2559.51. 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.
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 17.16 up from Friday's trailing P/E of 16.88 (last year it was 14.92). Monday's P/E estimate is 14.82 up from Friday's closing P/E estimate of 14.75 (year ago it was 12.21) and Monday's dividend yield is 2.33 up from Friday's closing dividend yield of 2.32 (last year it was 2.61). The Dow's all-time high was 16,576.66 on December 31, 2013. The 12 year low close for the Dow was on March 9, 2009 when it fell to 6,547.05.
The average closing price (the closing numerator divided by 30) of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $84.39 down 93 cents from Friday's average closing price of $85.32. The median closing price of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $79.23 (WMT/HD) down 80 cents from Friday's median closing price of $80.03 (WMT/HD). The lowest volume was Travelers 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 lost $2,789 ($255,951 - $253,162).
MarketWatch 1/14/14 Mon. 4:16 pm by Anora Mahmudova says U.S. stocks sold off sharply in late trade Monday, resulting in the worst losses for benchmark indexes in several months, on concerns about the December jobs report and more discussion of the Federal Reserve's bond taper. The S&P 500 SPX -1.26% closed 23.17 points or 1.3% lower at 1,819.20, its largest one-day point drop since Nov 7. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA -1.09% fell 179.1 points or 1.1% to 16,257.94, the largest point drop since Sep 20. The Nasdaq Composite COMP -1.47% finished 61.36 points or 1.5% down at 4,113.30, worst one-day point drop since Nov 7. Investors focused on earnings reports due to be released on Tuesday morning from two of the largest banks J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. JPM -1.35% and Wells Fargo & Co WFC -0.83% .
