Post No. 2,710 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 and a summary of recent Dow 30 components' SEC filings.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Wednesday at 16867.51 up 49.38 or 0.29% from Tuesday's close of 16818.13. Of the Dow components 23 gained and 7 declined. The biggest gainers dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Nike up $1.49 or 1.99%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was and percentage-wise was Boeing down $2.09 or 1.62%.
As of the open of the market on Wednesday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C5 of Wednesday's Wall St. Journal is 0.15571590501117. Wednesday's trailing P/E ratio is 16.45 down from Tuesday's trailing P/E ratio of 16.57 (last year it was 16.05). Wednesday's P/E estimate is 15.19 unchanged from Tuesday's P/E estimate of 15.19 (year ago it was 13.35) and Wednesday's dividend yield is 2.18 up from Tuesday's dividend yield of 2.16 (last year it was 2.47). The Dow's all-time high was 16,947.08 on June 20, 2014. The 12 year low close for the Dow was on March 9, 2009 when it fell to 6,547.05.
Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average numerator is 2626.54 up 7.69 from Tuesday's numerator of 2618.85. 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 Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $87.55 up 25 cents from Tuesday's average closing price of $87.30. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $81.43 (HD/UNH) up 35 cents from Tuesday's median closing price of $81.08 (HD/UNH. The lowest volume was Travelers and the highest volume was Intel.
If Wednesday 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 $769 ($262,654 - 261,885).
6/25/14 Wednesday 4:26 pm MarketWatch by Wallace Witkowski & Victor Reklaitis says U.S. stocks closed higher Wednesday, recovering from a weak revision of first-quarter economic performance, as media stocks got a lift from a Supreme Court ruling and refinery stocks dropped on a weakening of an oil export ban.
The S&P 500 Index SPX +0.49% rose 9.55 points, or 0.5%, to end at 1,959.53, while the Dow Jones Industrial AverageDJIA +0.29% gained 49.38 points, or 0.3%, to finish at 16,867.51.
The S&P 500 and Dow both snapped two-day skids, but remain down for the week after closing at record levels on Friday.
The Nasdaq Composite Index COMP +0.68% climbed 29.40 points, or 0.7%, to close at 4,379.76, as Google Inc. GOOG +2.48% kicked off its annual I/O developers conference in San Francisco . The tech-heavy index scored its highest close since April 2000.
Orders for durable goods fell 1% in May, the Commerce Department said Wednesday. That was below the 0.5% expected by economists surveyed by MarketWatch. In addition, the U.S. economy shrank by a 2.9% annual pace in the first quarter instead of 1% as previously reported, marking the biggest decline since early 2009 when the Great Recession was winding down. The economy has strengthened since the first quarter, when it was hurt by an unusually harsh winter, with growth projected to rise roughly 3% in the second quarter, which ends Monday.
Investors knew the GDP report would “stink, but not this much,” said Naeem Aslam, chief market analyst at Ava Trade, in emailed comments. But he said he expects “payback” in the current quarter, meaning “a strong reading.”
“The initial reaction to the GDP report was exactly that, a kneejerk reaction,” said Dan Greenhaus, BTIG, in emailed comments.
Greenhaus pointed out that core durable-goods data, excluding defense spending, was actually good and that even the less closely followed Markit PMI figure was better than expected, indicating the economy is in much better shape than the revised first-quarter GDP data would suggest.
Peter Cardillo, chief market economist at Rockwell Global Capital, said Wednesday’s two economic reports reinforce the notion that the Federal Reserve won’t raise interests rates sooner than expected, and he sees stocks staying in a narrow trading range for the summer.
“For now, I just think the market holds its own here,” Cardillo told
Investors' eyes are on Google as its developer conference starts. General Mills and AbbVie are also among stocks to watch on Wednesday.
That view of a narrow trading range for the summer was backed by Terry Sandven, chief equity strategist at U.S. Bank, in a recent note. “Among near-term catalysts, the June employment report scheduled for release on July 3 and second quarter earnings results set largely to begin in the middle of July should set the tone for performance throughout the third quarter and perhaps beyond,” Sandven said.

The following are excerpts from Wednesday's morning Blog:
A read of the print editions of Wednesday's, Wall Street 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 Tuesday's closing stock prices and related data in alphabetical order.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average: The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Tuesday at 16818.13 down 119.13 or 0.7% from Monday's close of 16937.26. For the year the Dow is up1.46 %. Of the Dow components 4 gained and 26 declined. The biggest gainers dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Intel up 27 cents or 0.89%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Goldman Sachs down $2.01 and percentage-wise was Exxon down 1.58%.
WSJ pC4 "Shares slide despite positive data" by Tomi Kilgore says the Dow fell with its biggest one day decline in more than amonth as the market was due for a pullback.
NYT pB8 "Sell-Off in blue chip shares pushes market lower" & AJC pA13 "Stock market ends lower" says the market had its biggest decline in 2 weeks Tues due to a sell in blue chip bank and energy stocks although homebuilders rose after the gov reported sales of new homes increased in May to the highest level in 6 years.
FT p21 "Wall Street" by Eric Platt says US equities shifted higher following better than expected housing & consumer confidence reports and home sales figures that showed home sales hit their fastest pace in May since '08 rising 18.6% to an annualized pace of 504,000 units.
IBD pB4 "Nasdaq hits 14 year high but indexes reverse lower" by Ken Shreve says a Tuesdays session saw indexes reverse lower in higher vol despite better than expected economic data due to renewed tension in Iraq as the current outlook is a confirmed uptrend.
Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average numerator is 2618.85 down 18.55 from Monday's numerator of 2637.40. 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 $87.30 down 61 cents from Monday's average closing price of $87.91. The median closing price of Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $81.08 (HD/UNH) up 1 cent from Monday's median closing price of $81.07 (UNH/HD). The lowest volume was 3M and the highest volume was Intel.
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 lost $1,855 ($263,740 - $261,855).
6/24/14 Tuesday 4:36 pm MarketWatch by Anora Mahnumdova says A late afternoon selloff on Wall Street sent U.S. stocks lower on Tuesday, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average falling by the most points in more than a month.
Some analysts pointed to escalation in Iraq as a possible trigger, while others said that it was a mere profit-taking at the end of the quarter.
The Dow Jones Industrial AverageDJIA -0.70% dropped 119.13 points, or 0.7%, to 16,813.13. The Nasdaq Composite COMP -0.42% lost 18.32 points, or 0.4%, to 4,350.36. As selling intensified, the CBOE Vix index VIX +10.47% jumped 10% to above 12.
“Investors have generally paid little attention to the fighting in Iraq. But stocks dropped today due to the possibility of escalating violence and slightly higher oil prices,” said Kate Warne, investment strategist at Edward Jones.
Channing Smith, managing director at Capital Advisors, doubted it was Iraq news that triggered a selloff.
“If Iraq is a concern, why energy sector is sharply down? I think markets simply have been overbought and are now taking a breather, with investors taking profit at the end of the quarter” Channing said.
Stocks initially rose on the back of positive economic reports, including new-home sales, home prices and consumer confidence data, but gains evaporated by afternoon.
New U.S. homes sold at an annual rate of 504,000 in May to mark the fastest increase in six years, the government said Tuesday. Yet the surprising gain -- economists polled by MarketWatch expected a 440,000 increase -- was led by a huge surge in the Northeast. Sales of existing homes in May hit the fastest pace in seven months.
Home prices rose in April as the spring selling season got underway, even as annual growth skidded, dropping to the slowest pace in more than a year, according to data released Tuesday morning. April data show that home-price growth has turned
S&P/Case-Shiller’s price barometer tracking 20 cities showed that year-over-year price growth hit 10.8% in April — a fast pace but down sharply from annual growth of 12.4% in March and a recent peak of 13.7% in November. A gauge of consumer confidence rose to 85.2 in June -- the highest level since January 2008 -- from 82.2 in May, the Conference Board Tuesday.
In corporate news, cruise company Carnival Corp.CCL -2.99% beat consensus profit and revenue estimates and raised its full-year outlook. However, shares fell 3%.

AT&T: NYT pB2 "DirecTV and AT&T make case to Congress" by Edward Wyatt, FT p15 "AT&T accused over merger promises" by Gina Chon, WSJ pB3 "AT&T, DirecTV defend deal" by Gautham Nagesh, IBD pA2 "AT&T defends DirecTV deal" say AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson & DirecTV CEO Michael White testified to Congress that their proposed $48.5 bil merger would pressure cable firms to lower prices.
