Post No. 2,734 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 7/3/14 and a summary of recent Dow 30 components' SEC filings as of 7/3/14.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Wednesday at 16985.61 up 78.99 or 0.47% from Tuesday's close of 16906.62%. Of the Dow components 22 gained, Boeing was unchanged and 7 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Chevron up $1.49 and percentage-wise was Disney up 1.58%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was DuPont down 29 cents or 0.44%.
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 16.53 down from Tuesday's trailing P/E ratio of 16.65 (last year it was 16.72). Wednesday's P/E estimate is 15.26 unchanged from Tuesday's P/E estimate of 15.26 (year ago it was 13.55) and Wednesday's dividend yield is 2.16 up from Tuesday's dividend yield of 2.14 (last year it was 2.40). The Dow's all-time high was 17068.26 on July 3, 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 2644.93 up 22.30 from Tuesday's numerator of 2632.63. 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 $88.16 down 61 cents from Tuesday's average closing price of $87.75. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $81.72 (HD/UNH) up $1.38 from Tuesday's median closing price of $80.34 (HD/UNH). The lowest volume was Visa and the highest volume was GE .
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 $2,230 ($264,493 - $263,263).
7/9/14 Wednesday 4:07 pm MarketWatch by Anora Mahumudova & Barbara Kollmeyer says The U.S. stocks closed modestly higher on Wednesday after the FOMC minutes revealed that policy-makers decided to end the Fed’s bond purchases by October if the economy stays on track.
The Fed plans to end purchases altogether with a final reduction of $15 billion at its October meeting, after trimming it by $10 billion at each meeting up to that point, while keeping the rates near zero for a considerable time. Investors took that as a bullish sign and pushed prices higher.
The S&P 500 SPX +0.46% gained 9.12 points, or 0.5%, to 1,972.83. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA +0.47% closed 79 points, or 0.5%, higher at 16,985.61. The Nasdaq Composite COMP +0.63% rose 27.57 points, or 0.6%, to 4,419.03.
“We believe this quarter financials are likely to surprise on the upside, just because there is too much skepticism about the sector, the only one to deliver negative growth,” Bell added. Alcoa Inc. AA +0.45% shares rallied 5.3% after the company said it swung to a second-quarter profit late Tuesday.
Shares of Gigamon Inc. GIMO +0.41% plunged 33% after the networking-hardware company lowered its second-quarter revenue guidance on Tuesday.
Container Store Group Inc. TCS +0.24% shares sank 8.9% after the organization-product company posted a loss of 7 cents, a penny more than expected. Read more in Movers and Shakers column.
In overseas markets, Europe’s Stoxx 600XX:SXXP -0.01% closed marginally lower, its fourth day in the red, while the Hong Kong Hang Seng indexHK:HSI +0.26% lost 1.6% after softer-than-expected inflation data from China.
Crude-oil prices CLQ4 -0.31% fell as a smaller-than-expected decline in weekly U.S. crude supplies and signs of growing production from Libya helped the U.S. benchmark suffer a ninth consecutive day of declines. Gold futures GCQ4 +0.53% recouped on Wednesday some of what they lost in a trio of downbeat sessions, then extended gains in electronic trading following minutes of the U.S. Federal Reserve ‘s June meeting.. The dollar DXY -0.05% was mostly higher.

Retirement investors are pouring money into target-date funds. Barron's Andrew Bary discusses the pros and cons of these funds.
“In the short-term, we are concerned that there is a bit of optimism about the second-quarter earnings. Expectations for overall markets are high and this may lead to some short-term downside if companies come short,” said Joe Bell, senior equity analyst at Schaeffer’s Investment Research. “We believe this quarter financials are likely to surprise on the upside, just because there is too much skepticism about the sector, the only one to deliver negative growth,” Bell added.

The following are excerpts from Wed. morning's 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 16906.62 down 117.59 or 0.76% from Monday's close of 17024.21. For the year the Dow is up 1.99%.

The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Goldman Sachs down $2.87 and percentage-wise was Verizon down 1.99%.
WSJ pC4 "DJIA slides below 17000" by Chris Dieterich, Saumya Vaishampayan says US stocks tumbled as caution reigned ahead of corp earnings season. Boeing and Goldman Sachs are listed under Bad News as Boeing could need to bolster loans to clients if lawmakers close the Ex-Im Bank and KBW cut Goldman's 2Q eps to $3.27.
NYT pB7 & same article at AJC pA13 "Market retreats before earnings season" by AP says investors sold off all manner of stocks Tues as they waited for corp earnings reports. Internet firms bore the brunt of the selling.
FT p19 "Airlines extend decline after transatlantic profit warning" by Eric Platt says the Vix volatility index known as Wall Street's fear gauge rose 10% to $12.39.
IBD pB4 "Stocks roiled signaling uptrend is under pressure" by Juan Crlos Arancibia says the stock market continued fraying Tues signaling that it's time for a defensive shift in investment strategy. Tuesday's action was more selling in heavy vol as the current outlook is uptrend under pressure.
Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average numerator is 2632.63 down 18.31 from Monday's numerator of 2650.94. 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 $87.75 down 61 cents from Monday's average closing price of $88.36. The median closing price of Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $80.34 (HD/UNH) down $1.47 from Monday's median closing price of $81.81 (HD/UNH).

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 $1,831 ($265,094 - $263,263).
7/8/14 Tuesday 4:21 pm MarketWatch by Anora Mahumudova & Victor Reklaitis says so-called momentum plays led a selloff in U.S. stocks on Tuesday that pulled the Dow Jones Industrial Average and S&P 500 further from record levels.
Shares of biotechnology, Internet and small-cap companies were battered for a second day. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA -0.69% dropped 117.59 points, or 0.7%, to a preliminary 16,906.62, while the S&P 500 SPX -0.71% shed 13.94 points, or 0.7%, to 1,963.71. The Nasdaq Composite COMP -1.35% lost 60.07 points, or 1.35%, to 4,391.46. The iShares Nasdaq Biotechnology ETFb IBB +0.09% fell 2.1%, while Global X Social Media Index ETF SOCL -3.85% fell 4.2%.
The Russell 2000d RUT -1.23% fell 14.6 points, or 1.2% to 1,172.15, adding to steep losses on Monday.
Rob Stein, chief executive officer of Astor Investment Management, said investors shouldn’t be alarmed by Tuesday’s pullback.
“When markets reach new peaks, investors tend to take opportunity and lighten up and rebalance. We think the economy is in its midcycle and has more room to grow. In this environment our risk-reward model is still favoring stocks with decent expected returns for the next several quarters,” Stein said.
The latest earnings season received its unofficial kickoff after the market’s close, as Alcoa Inc. released its second-quarter results.
Online investment services aren't just for young clients and low-balance accounts; "robo" advice can help any wealth advisory firm grow, says Bernie Clark, the head of Schwab Adviser Services. "
Investors had a light load of economic news to digest during the session. A small-business optimism index showed a June dip amid a big fall in those who expect the economy to improve. Job openings at U.S. workplaces rose to 4.64 million in May — the most since June 2007 — from 4.46 million in April. Richmond Federal Reserve President Jeffrey Lacker said the Fed must be pre-emptive, hiking rates before inflation emerges. In contrast, Minneapolis Fed President Narayana Kocherlakota downplayed recent higher readings on inflation, saying he expects the price level to stay below the central bank’s target for several more years, possibly even until 2018.
Among individual stocks, TripAdvisor Inc TRIP -5.55% was left off Wunderlich Securities’ list of analyst favorites for the second half of the year. Stock fell 5.6%, making it the biggest loser on the S&P 500.
Tesla Motors Inc. /quotes/zigman/118681/delayed/quotes/nls/tsla TSLA -0.06% shares dropped 1.6% as the electric car company is being sued in China for trademark infringement.
In other markets, the Nikkei 225 index JP:NIK -0.42% closed down 0.4%, though the rest of Asia largely held steady. The Stoxx Europe XX:SXXP -1.40% pulled back after weak German trade data supported the view that economic activity in the country is slowing.
