Post No. 2,792 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 16919.59 up 80.85 or 0.48% from Monday's close of 16838.74. Of the Dow components 22 gained and 8 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was and percentage-wise was Home Depot up $4.64 or 5.55%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Goldman Sachs down 59 cents and percentage-wise was AT&T down 0.49%.
As of the open of the market on Tuesday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C5 of Tuesday's Wall St. Journal is 0.15571590501117. Tuesday's trailing P/E ratio is 15.82 down from Monday's trailing P/E ratio of 15.87 (last year it was 16.37). Tuesday's P/E estimate is 14.77 unchanged from Monday's P/E estimate of 14.77 (year ago it was 13.66) and Tuesday's dividend yield is 2.22 up from Monday's dividend yield of 2.21 (last year it was 2.47). The Dow's all-time high was 17113.54 on July 2, 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 2634.65 up 12.60 from Monday's numerator of 2622.05. 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 $87.82 up 42 cents from Monday's average closing price of $87.40. The median closing price of Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $85.80 (UNH/AXP) up $2.79 from Monday's median closing price of $83.01 (PG/HD/. The lowest volume was Travelers 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 made $1,260 ($263,346 - $262,205).
8/19/14 Tues. 4:06 MarketWatch by Victor Reklaitis & Wallace Witkowski says
U.S. stocks climbed Tuesday after a better-than-expected jump in July housing starts and upbeat earnings reports. Apple Inc. AAPL, -0.04% achieved an all-time split-adjusted closing high, while Home Depot Inc. HD, +5.55% was the biggest gainer in the Dow Jones Industrial Average in the wake of quarterly results that topped forecasts. The S&P 500 SPX, +0.50% advanced 9.86 points, or 0.5%, to close at 1,981.60, while the Dow industrials DJIA, +0.48% rose 80.85 points, or 0.5%, to end at 16,919.59. The S&P 500 stands 0.3% off its July 24 record close at 1,987.98, recovering from its drop in late July and early August. The Nasdaq Composite COMP, +0.43% advanced 19.20 points, or 0.4%, to finish at 4,527.51. The tech-laden index scored its highest close since March 31, 2000, for the second day in a row, and it’s on a five-day winning streak. The Commerce Department on Tuesday said construction on U.S. new homes rose 15.7% in July to an annual rate of 1.09 million, well above forecasts, and the June drop in new construction was revised to a much smaller decline.
“I think investors will be encouraged to an extent by the revisions in the data,” said Andrew Wilkinson, chief market analyst at Interactive Brokers. He also said geopolitical concerns seem to be receding, even though there’s no resolution in the Ukraine-Russia conflict, and that “just gives added impetus to the bulls.” In other economic news, the Labor Department said U.S. consumer prices rose 0.1% in July, matching forecasts and signaling inflation isn’t flaring up.
When Google went public 10 years ago, co-founder Larry
Page said he wanted to get his search engine’s users “out of Google and
to the right place as fast as possible." Today, Google is often doing
the opposite. The
rest of the week “is going to be about the FOMC (Federal Open Market
Committee) minutes and Jackson Hole conference,” said Wouter
Sturkenboom, strategist at Russell Investments in London, in emailed
comments. “On both counts, we and the market expect the
prevailing dovish stance to hold, providing upside momentum for
markets,” Sturkenboom said. But he added that owing to valuation
concerns, his firm remains neutral on U.S. stocks.The FOMC
minutes will hit Wednesday, and Federal Reserve Chairwoman Janet Yellen
will speak on Friday at the central bank’s conference in Jackson Hole,
Wyo. Stocks have rallied in recent sessions mostly because
investors are no longer frightened about rising interest rates, said
Bruce Bittles, chief investment strategist at R.W. Baird. Some soft
economic news in the U.S. and overseas, such as for jobless claims and retail sales, indicate the low-rate regime that’s boosted stocks will continue.
“All
of a sudden, the theory that we were in a rising interest rate
environment in the U.S. turned out to be perhaps premature,” Bittles
told MarketWatch. He argued that while geopolitical fears have spiked
and then eased, they’re largely background noise.Movers & shakers: Home Depot shares rose 5.6% to a record close, and home-builder shares staged a rally with D.R Horton Inc. DHI, +3.27% Ryland Group Inc. RYL, +4.62% and Lennar Corp. LEN, +3.33% shares all advancing at least 3%.

The following are excerpts from Tuesday morning's Blog:
A read of the print editions of Tuesday'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 Monday's closing stock prices and related data in alphabetical order.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average: The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Monday at 16838.74 up 175.83 or 1.06% from Friday's close of 16713.58. For the year the Dow is up 1.6%. Of the Dow components 4 gained and 26 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Verizon up $4.13 and percentage-wise was United Technologies up 2.33%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Merck down 19 cents or 0.32 %.
Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average numerator is 2622.05 up 27.27 from Friday's numerator of 2594.68. 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 Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $87.40 up 91 cents from Friday's average closing price of $86.49. The median closing price of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $83.01 (PG/HD) up 27 cents from Friday's median closing price of $82.74 (PG/HD/. The lowest volume was Travelers and the highest volume was Intel.
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 $2,727 ($262,205 - $259,468).
8/18/14 Mon. 4:37 MarketWatch by Victor Reklaitis & Barbara Kollmeyer says U.S. stocks finished with strong gains Monday, helped by deal news and easing Ukraine-Russia tensions.
A better-than-expected reading on the housing market also boosted sentiment and kicked off a big week for economic data.
The S&P 500 SPX, +0.85% rose 16.68 points, or 0.9%, to close at 1,971.74, adding to its 1.2% weekly gain last week. The benchmark index stands just 0.8% off its July 24 record close, as it’s bounced back from a slump in late July and early August.
The Nasdaq Composite COMP, +0.97% climbed 43.39 points, or 1%, to 4,508.31, scoring its highest close since March 2000. Yahoo Inc. YHOO, +2.50% and Google Inc. GOOGL, +1.54% GOOG, +1.51% rose 2.5% and 1.5%, respectively, as tech stocks enjoyed broad gains.
“The political concerns that whipped markets around on Friday subsided over the weekend with Ukraine and Russia apparently talking and making some progress,” said Colin Cieszynski, chief market strategist at CMC Markets, in emailed comments. He also emphasized encouraging news from Iraq, noting that “Kurdish forces regained control of the key Mosul Dam from ISIS.”
Alastair McCaig, market analyst at IG, pointed out the Dow might regain a big round number.
“Wall Street is once again coming up to tackle technical resistance, but with the momentum built up over the last week, conversations are likely to turn towards when, not if, it can tackle the 17,000 level again,” McCaig said in a note.
Helping out, he said, was the bounce off session lows seen Friday, when the Dow recovered from a triple-digit fall. Also read: Where Soros and other big investors are putting their money right now
Foreign ministers from Ukraine and Russia met over the weekend, and an agreement was reached over a convoy of what Russia says is humanitarian aid. The news pushed the Europe Stoxx 600 SXXP, +1.18% to its highest close so far this month.
In U.S. economic news, the National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo Housing Market Index for August came in at 55, its highest level in seven months. Economists polled by MarketWatch had expected a reading of 53. U.S. stocks strengthened further after the housing report.
This week also should bring data on housing starts and consumer prices on Tuesday, as well as minutes from the last Federal Open Market Committee meeting on Wednesday.
Federal Reserve Chairwoman Janet Yellen will give a speech Friday at the annual Fed summit in Jackson Hole, Wyo. Yellen is expected to say there’s still slack in the job market, and she isn’t likely to change the Fed’s easy-money stance, said Jan Hatzius, chief economist at Goldman Sachs, in an interview with MarketWatch.
Shares of Dollar General Corp. DG, +11.63% rose 12%, faring best in the S&P 500, after offering to buy rival Family Dollar Stores Inc. FDO, +4.93% in an all-cash deal worth $78.50 a share. That’s higher than Dollar Tree Inc.’s DLTR, -2.42% cash-and-stock bid in July of $74.50 a share. Family Dollar jumped 4.9% for the second-best gain in the S&P 500.
In commodity markets, oil prices CLU4, +0.29% fell after Iraqi Kurds recaptured a large chunk of the biggest dam in the country from Islamist militants, with help from U.S. air power.
