Post No. 2,616 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 a summary of Dow 30 components' recent SEC filings.
A read of the print editions of Monday's Barron's & Investor's Business; the combined Saturday and Sunday issues of each of the Wall St. Journal & Financial Times; & Saturday's New York Times & Atlanta Journal & Constitution 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 Friday's closing stock prices and related data in alphabetical order.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Friday at 16323.06 up 58.83 or 0.36% from Thursday's close of 16264.23. For the week the Dow was up 20.29 or 0.12% from last Friday's close of 16302.77. For the year the Dow is down 1.5%. Of the Dow components 26 gained and 4 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Exxon up $1.46 and percentage-wise was Microsoft up 2.39%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Visa down $3.68 or 1.71%.
IBD pB8 "Stocks lose early gains as buyers lack conviction" by Paul Whitfield says stocks staked out nice gains early Fri but the bears once again wrested away a large portion of the increase as Friday's action was up in declining vol & gives back most of gains. the current outlook is the market is in correction.
WSJ pB5 "Dow rises, Nasdaq slides for week" by Matt Jarzemsky says stocks rose but capped the biggest weekly decline in over a year for the Nasdaq Composite Index amid continued selling of high octane health care and tech stocks.
FT p11 "Wall street:" by Eric Platt says US equity markets advanced as consumer spending figures released by the commerce dept showed more improvement.
Sat. NYT pB7 "Shares rise modestly, ending drought" by AP & Sat. AJC pA10 "Spending news provides jolt" says a positive report on consumer spending pushed stocks mostly higher Fri for the first time in 3 days. The stocks that advanced the most were mature, large firms like Microsoft, Exxon Mobil and Cisco.
As of the open of the market on Monday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page B6 of Saturday's Wall St. Journal is 0.15571590501117. Monday's trailing P/E ratio is 15.89 down from Friday's trailing P/E ratio of 16.00 (last year it was 15.95). Monday's P/E estimate is 14.74 up from Friday's P/E estimate of 14.85 (year ago it was 12.95) and Monday's dividend yield is 2.43 up from Friday's dividend yield of 2.18 (last year it was 2.44). 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.
Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 2541.76 down 9.16 from Thursday's closing numerator of 2532.60. 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 Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $84.73 down 31 cents from Thursday's average closing price of $84.42. The median closing price of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $79.38 (DIS/PG) up 70 cents from Thursday's median closing price of $78.68 (HD/PG). The lowest volume was 3M 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 lost $916 ($254,176 - $253,260).
3/28/14 Fri. 7:18 pm MarketWatch by Anora Mahmudova says the U.S. stock market pared most of its gains Friday after an early morning rally following generally positive consumer spending data petered out by mid-afternoon.
The Nasdaq Composite saw the worst week in 17 months, after a week-long selloff in biotechs dragged the index down.

“Today’s economic data was as expected, but compared to the last few months there is an improvement, suggesting that the economy’s slowdown this year is weather-related and temporary,” said Kate Warne, investment strategist at Edward Jones.
“This was enough good news for stocks to go higher this morning,” Warne added.
Consumer spending rose in February at the fastest rate since November as Americans spent more on health care and utilities, but in a negative sign, purchases of big-ticket items fell for the third straight month. Personal income also ticked up in February.
Next week will offer a barrage of economic data, which are expected to have less weather-related distortions and provide a better view of the economy.
Separately, consumer sentiment declined to a final March reading of 80 -- the lowest level since November -- from a final February level of 81.6, according to a Friday report on a gauge from the University of Michigan and Thomson Reuters. A preliminary March reading pegged the level at 79.9. Economists polled by MarketWatch had expected a final March level of 81. Economists watch sentiment levels to get a feeling for the direction of consumer spending.
Heavy losses among biotech stocks dragged the Nasdaq Composite down. The Nasdaq Biotechnology index fell 2.8%. Biogen Idec, Inc. BIIB -5.05% and Gilead Sciences, Inc.GILD -4.01% were among the top five losers on the S&P 500, falling 5% and 4.9% respectively.
In corporate news, BlackBerry Ltd. BBRY -7.07% shares slumped 7% after reporting an adjusted per-share loss that was less than expected. The company said it anticipates maintaining a strong cash position and is targeting break-even cash-flow results by the end of fiscal 2015.
