Post No. 2,768 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 Monday at 16.569.28 up 75.91 or 0.46% from Friday's close of 16493.37. Of the Dow components 25 gained, Walmart was unchanged and 4 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Disney up $1.86 or 2.18%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Boeing down 45 cents and percentage-wise was Procter & Gamble down 0.54%.
As of the open of the market on Monday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 Monday's Wall St. Journal is 0.15571590501117. Monday's trailing P/E ratio is 15.72 down from Friday's trailing P/E ratio of 16.01 (last year it was 16.83). Monday's P/E estimate is 14.62 down from Friday's P/E estimate of 15.13 (year ago it was 13.90) and Monday's dividend yield is 2.22 up from Friday's dividend yield of 2.19 (last year it was 2.35). 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.
Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average numerator is 2580.10 up 11.82 from Friday's numerator of 2568.28. 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 $86.00 up 39 cents from Friday's average closing price of $85.61. The median closing price of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $80.75 (HD/UNH) up 13 cents from Friday's median closing price of $80.62 (HD/UNH). The lowest volume was Visa and the highest volume was Microsoft.
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 $1,182 ($258,010 -$256,828).
8/4/14 Monday 4:14 pm MarketWatch by Anora Mahumudova & Barbara Kollmeyer says U.S. stocks rallied on Monday and recouped some of the heavy losses from last week’s rout, but investors remained cautious over the timing of the Federal Reserve’s interest-rate hikes.
The S&P 500 SPX +0.72% closed 13.8 points, or 0.7%, higher at 1,938.99, its first gain in three sessions. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA +0.46% added as much as 102 points during the session, before finishing the day 75.91 points, or 0.5%, higher at 16,569.28 and snapping a four-day losing streak. The Nasdaq Composite COMP +0.72% rose 31.25 points, or 0.7% to 4,383.89.
The data calendar was empty for Monday and few companies reported earnings. Instead, investors focused on last week’s performance, which included the biggest weekly drop in two years for the S&P 500 SPX +0.72% . While Friday’s jobs report wasn’t as strong as expected, the data over the week provided more evidence that the economy continues to gain momentum, which in turn makes it more likely the Federal Reserve could raise interest rates sooner than expected.
Uri Landesman, president of Platinum Partners, a New York-based hedge fund, hopes the market finally cracks. Landesman has been calling for a 10%-15% correction for some time, and says one worrisome sign is that most of the money coming into the stock market is from individual investors, not the professionals. That, he notes, s normally associated with the end of a bull market.
“This week’s action will be very important. If we snap back and rally it would mean that the bulls are in control,” he said. “If not, then it would mean that buyers are waiting for markets to go a lot lower before stepping in. In this case, markets will continue to sell.”
Readings on services and factory orders are due Tuesday, while data on trade and consumer credit follow later in the week.
On the other side of the argument, Mark Haefele, global chief investment officer at UBS Wealth Management, and Kiran Ganesh, the firm’s cross-asset strategist, say investors should not be panicking because valuations are not at extremes, nor are investors “exuberant.”
Among individual stocks, Michael Kors Holdings Ltd. KORS -0.21% fell 5.9% as investors were worried about increased markdowns that were a drag on the retailer’s margins in its fiscal first quarter.
Cardinal Health Inc. CAH -2.89% reported profits that topped estimates, but shares fell 2.9%.
Amgen Inc. /AMGN +0.08% rose 2.6% after the biopharmaceutical company said a Phase 3 clinical trial for a late-stage treatment of multiple myeloma was successful.
In overseas markets, Asian stocks had a mixed session, with the Shanghai Composite IndexCN:SHCOMP +1.74% up 1.7% and the Nikkei 225 JP:NIK -0.31% index off 0.3%. Gold prices GCU4 -0.50% edged down, while oil CLU4 +0.52% was flat and the dollarDXY +0.00% recouped some losses from last week.
Portugal’s central bank late Sunday announced a rescue plan of Banco Espírito Santo, in which the bank would be split into “good” and “bad” banks with the “good” bank receiving €4.9 billion in state funds. The upheaval surrounding the bank had some investors worried about renewed turmoil for Europe’s banking system. The weekend news drove a rally in Portugal stocks PT:PSI20 +0.98% and also inspired some gains in Europe XX:SXXP

The following are excerpts from Monday morning's Blog:
A read of the print editions of Monday's Barron's, Investor's Business Daily, Wall Street Journal, Financial Times, New York Times, USAT 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 Friday's closing stock prices and related data in alphabetical order.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average: The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Friday at 16493.37 down 69.93 or 0.42% from Thursday's close of 16563.30. For the week the Dow was down 467.20 or 2.75% from last Friday's close of 16960.57. For the year the Dow is down %. Of the Dow components gained 6 and, Coke was unchanged and 23 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Procter & Gamble up $2.33 or 3.01%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Goldman Sachs down 42.62 and percentage-wise was JPMorgan down 2.06%.
IBD pB8 "Stock indexes trim losses; put call hints at bottom" by Paul Whitfield says Friday's action was down in lower vol & the current outlook is uptrend under pressure.
Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average numerator is 2568.28 down 10.89 from Thursday's numerator of 2579.17. 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 $85.61 down 36 cents from Thursday's average closing price of $87.97. The median closing price of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $80.62 (HD/UNH) down 33 cents from Thursday's median closing price of $80.95 (HD/UNH). The lowest volume was Travelers and the highest volume was GE.
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 $1,089 ($257,914 - $256,828).
8/1/14 Friday 4:34 pm MarketWatch by Victor Reklaitis & Anora Mahumudova says U.S. stocks on Friday built on the week’s losses, leaving the S&P 500 with its biggest weekly drop in two years.
Friday’s flurry of economic data only briefly lifted the stock market. Instead, Thursday’s selloff, sparked in part by signs of rising wages, continued as investors remained fearful that the Federal Reserve might raise interest rates sooner than expected.
The S&P 500 SPX -0.29% fell 5.52 points, or 0.3% to end at 1,925.15, though it finished off its session low. The benchmark endured a weekly loss of 2.7%, its largest percentage drop since the week ended June 1, 2012. It’s now off 3.2% from its July 24 record close.
The Dow /DJIA -0.42% dropped 69.93 points, or 0.4%, to finish at 16,493.37 on Friday. The blue-chip gauge recorded a weekly tumble of 2.8%, its biggest decline since the week ended Jan. 24.
Friday’s generally positive economic data keeps pressure on the Federal Reserve to reduce its stimulus measures that have helped stock prices, said Colin Cieszynski, chief market strategist at CMC Markets.
“Good news for the economy is bad news for the market, because it means they’ll have to take way the liquidity that’s boosted stocks eventually,” Cieszynski told MarketWatch.
The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite COMP -0.39% was down 17.13 points, or 0.4%, to close at 4,352.64, leaving it down 2.2% for the week.
The small-cap Russell 2000 RUT -0.47% shed 5.21 points, or 0.5%, to end at 1,114.86. The Russell, often viewed as a gauge of investors’ risk appetite, finished down 2.6% for the week and briefly traded as much as 8.8% off its July 1 intraday high.
Friday’s key economic reports: The U.S. economy added 209,000 jobs in July, missing forecasts but signaling the economy is sustaining its momentum.
The Institute for Supply Management’s manufacturing index rose more than expected, and a reading on consumer sentiment slipped slightly, but was roughly in line with expectations.
Individual movers & shakers: LinkedIn Corp. /quotes/zigman/5131883/delayed/quotes/nls/lnkd LNKD +0.48% closed up 11.7% after the careers-focused social network posted quarterly results late Thursday that easily topped Wall Street forecasts.
Procter & Gamble Co. PG +3.01% finished up 3%, performing the best among the 30 Dow stocks. The world’s largest consumer products company announced plans to shed brands, along with earnings that beat forecasts. Meanwhile, Western Union Co. WU -3.95% and PerkinElmer Inc. PKI -3.63% led S&P 500 decliners, as each stock dropped nearly 4%. Western Union’s quarterly profit dropped, and earnings at PerkinElmer, a manufacturer of health-testing equipment, also fell.
Among new issues, Mobileye MBLY +0.43% , which makes camera-based driver-assistance systems, soared 48% in its debut, but June’s hot IPO, GoPro Inc. GPRO +0.12% , fell 14.6% after its earnings as investors focused on lofty valuations. Read more about Friday’s jumpiest stocks in the Movers & Shakers column .
Other markets: In Europe, Germany’s DAX DX:DAX -2.10% ended down 4.5% for the week, its biggest weekly loss in two years, as investors continued to fret about the impact of sanctions against Russia. Crude-oil futures CLU4 -0.56% lost ground, while gold futures GCU4 +0.98% advanced.
