Post No. 2,573 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 January 27, 2014 and a summary of Dow 30 components' recent SEC filings as of January 27, 2014.
A read of the print editions of Tuesday's Wall St. Journal, Financial Times, Investor's Business 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 Monday's closing stock prices and related data in alphabetical order.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average: The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Monday at 16207.14 up 103.84 or 0.64% from Friday's close of 16103.30. Of the Dow components 21 gained and 9 declined. For the year the Dow is down 2.23%. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Visa up $2.83 and percentage-wise was UnitedHealth Group up 2.98%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise wasVerizon down $1.04 or 2.2 %.
Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 2523.71 up 16.18 from Friday's closing numerator of 2507.54. 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.
WSJ pC4 "Record eludes stocks" by Dan Strumpf says stocks rallied with the S&P 500 closing just shy of a record as investors continued to shrug off a mixed bag of economic data & corp earnings. Microsoft was charted under Bad News as Rod said it would sue BlackBerry software for in car multimedia dropping Microsoft.
NYT pB7 "S&P ends up after hitting intraday high" by Reuters says Humana & UnitedHealth Group ranked amond the S&P's biggest percentage gainers as UnitedHealth rose 3%.
USAT p1B "Stocks top highs, hint at upswing" by Adam Shell says the big question is whether the US stock market is poised to break out to the upside in a style similar to last year's mega bullish run or more grudgingly.
IBD pB2 "Nasdaq, S&P 500 back off after scoring new highs" by Vincent Mao says stocks hit new highs Mon as monday's action was up but off highs in higher volume as the current outlook is a confirmed uptrend.
FT p21 "Wall Street" by Eric Platt says UnitedHealth advanced 3%. Verizon's share volatility is expected to continue. Blackberry rose after saying its messaging service will be available to Microsoft's Windows phone.
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 15.94 up from Monday's trailing P/E ratio of 15.84 (last year it was 15.30). Tuesday's P/E estimate is14.50 unchanged from Monday's P/E estimate of 14.50 (year ago it was 12.54) and Tuesday's dividend yield is 2.20 unchanged from Monday's dividend yield of 2.20 (last year it was 2.60). 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 $84.12 up 56 cents from Friday's average closing price of $83.58. The median closing price of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $77.85 (HD/NKE) up 74 cents from Friday's median closing price of $77.11 (HD/NKE). The lowest volume was Travelers and the highest volume was Verizon .
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 $1,618 ($252,371 - $250,754).

Mon. 4:58 pm MarketWatch by Victor Reklaitis says US stocks climbed
on Monday, boosted by M&A activity,
an upbeat German confidence report and bets that the S&P 500’s
foray into new high ground could spur further buying.The main indexes
finished with solid gains, although they ended well off their session
highs as buying momentum faded. The S&P 500
SPX
+0.62%
had been on pace to score a record closing high but didn’t deliver,
with gains erased in the last hour of trading.The benchmark index rose
11.46 points, or 0.6%, to finish at 1,847.71 —
just below its Jan. 15 record close at 1,848.38. It had been up more
than 22 points intraday. Humana Inc.
HUM
-0.27%
closed up 10.6%, performing best among S&P 500 components.The Dow Jones Industrial Average
DJIA
+0.65%
gained 105.83 points, or 0.7%, to end at 16,209.13, led by UnitedHealth Group Inc.
UNH
+2.98%
, which jumped 3%. Shares in Humana and UnitedHealth, both health insurers, rallied following a JPMorgan note saying Medicare Advantage reimbursements will drop less than expected next yearThe Nasdaq added 29.56 points, or 0.7%, to close at 4,292.97, nabbing its highest close since April 2000.
“You had a pretty positive number out of Germany,” said Quincy Krosby,
market strategist at Prudential Financial, referring to the latest Ifo survey on German business confidence.“The
deal flow is also beginning to gain momentum, and that’s very positive
for markets,” she added.RF Micro Devices
RFMD
+21.00%
said Monday that it will merge with TriQuint Semiconductor Inc.
TQNT
+26.11%
in an all-stock deal. RF Micro closed up 21%, while TriQuint surged 26%.Jos. A. Bank
JOSB
+9.06%
shares rose 9.1% after Men’s Wearhouse Inc.
MW
+7.54%
upped its offer for its rival to $63.50 a share.
The amended offer is conditioned on Jos. A. Bank terminating its recent
agreement to buy Eddie Bauer. Men’s Wearhouse shares rose 7.5%.Monday’s deal news follows other recent M&A events, including Facebook Inc.’s
FB
+0.23%
purchase of WhatsApp, Comcast Corp.’s
CMCSA
+0.02%
plan to buy Time Warner Cable Inc.
TWC
-0.98%
and Actavis PLC’s
ACT
+1.81%
agreement to buy Forest Laboratories Inc.
FRX
-0.36%
Krosby
said the announced deals can have a “halo effect,” spurring some
investors to think they’re going to see more deals in other sectors.Some
market analysts have said they see limited gains for stocks in the
near term, citing resistance for the S&P 500 as the benchmark
index
trades around its record level.
“Every time you get to these levels there’s always a back and forth,”
Krosby told MarketWatch. She said at some point, something will push
the S&P 500 to a new record close, or it won’t be able to break out.
