Post No. 2,673 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 recent Dow 30 components' SEC filings.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Tuesday at 16675.50 up 69.23 or 0.42% from Friday's close of 16606.27. Of the Dow components 21 gained and 9 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was American Express up $2.61 or 2.94%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was IBM down $1.16 or 0.62%.
As of the open the market on Tuesday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of Tuesday's Wall St. Journal is 0.15571590501117. Tuesday's trailing P/E ratio is 16.24 (last year it was 16.71). Tuesday's P/E estimate is 14.81 (year ago it was 13.75) and Tuesday's dividend yield is 2.21 (last year it was 2.40). The Dow's all-time high was 16,715.44 on May 13, 2014. The 12 year low close for the Dow was on March 9, 2009 when it fell to 6,547.05.
Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average numerator is 2596.64 up 10.78 from Friday's numerator of 2585.86. 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 $86.55 up 35 cents from Friday's average closing price of $86.20. The median closing price of Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $79.89 (HD/PG) up 4 cents from Friday's median closing price of $79.85 (HD/PG). The lowest volume was 3M and the highest volume was Cisco.
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 made $1,078 ($259,664 -$258,586 ).
5/27/14 Tuesday 4:50 pm MarketWatch by Anora Mahmudova says U.S. stocks finished Tuesday with solid gains, sending the S&P 500 to a record close for the second straight session.
Sharp gains in technology stocks, including Apple Inc., the heaviest-weighted component on the Nasdaq Composite, sent the tech-heavy index to its highest level in nearly 8 weeks.
The Nasdaq Composite COMP +1.23% ended the day up 51.26 points, or 1.2%, at 4,237.07. High-growth biotechnology stocks also rallied, with the iShares Nasdaq Biotechnology ETF up 2.5%.
The S&P 500 /quotes/zigman/3870025/realtime SPX +0.60% closed near session highs, after hitting an intraday record. The benchmark index gained 11.38 points, or 0.6%, to 1,911.91.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA +0.42% gained 69.23 points, or 0.4%, to 16,675.50.
The Russell 2000 index RUT +1.42% rallied, gaining 15.96 points, or 1.4% to 1,142.15, according to preliminary data from FactSet.
Bullish analysts were vindicated as stocks reached record levels amid higher volumes. The benchmark index closed at a record level on Friday amid the lightest trading volume this year.
Investors welcomed positive and better-than-expected headline numbers in economic reports on Tuesday, and shrugged off some of the negative details that worried analysts. Orders for big-ticket items climbed thanks to demand for military equipment, but bookings fell in most civilian categories. Home prices rose in March for the first time in five months, however annual growth is still slowing. Consumer confidence edged up in May, matching expectations. Markets were closed on Monday for Memorial Day holiday.
Colin Cieszynski, chief market strategist at CMC, says that traders came back from the long-weekend in a good mood.
“Gold is positively hammered and the fact that the S&P 500 is trading above the 1,910 level suggests there is a real flow of capital back into riskier assets and away from havens, Cieszynski.
“After new highs in the industrials and transports a few weeks ago, this is a confirmation that there is breadth to this rally. However, the fact that the Vix is so low means that investors are getting complacent, so that is worrying,” he added
Quincy Krosby, market strategist at Prudential Financial, said headline numbers on Tuesday’s economic reports were good, but one could also find negative details.
“Durable-goods orders rose, but capex part actually declined. Corporations are still hesitant to invest in capital expenditures. For this market to go higher, companies must deliver top-line growth, because we know the Fed is winding down the QE,” Krosby added.
