Post No. 2,826 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 Wednesday at 17068.71 up 54.84 or 0.32% from Tuesday's close of 17013.87. Of the Dow components 21 gained and 9 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Verizon up $2.60 and percentage-wise was McDonald's up 2.1%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Caterpillar down $1.47 and percentage-wise was UnitedHealth down 1.48%.
As of the open of the market on Wednesday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C6 of Wednesday's Wall St. Journal is 0.15571590501117. Wednesday's trailing P/E ratio is 16.22 down from Tuesday's trailing P/E ratio of 16.24 (last year it was 15.84). Wednesday's P/E estimate is 15.10 unchanged from yesterday's P/E estimate of 15.10 (year ago it was 13.43) and Wednesday's dividend yield is 2.20 up from Tuesday's dividend yield of 2.19 (last year it was 2.47). The Dow's all-time high was 17138.20 on July 16, 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 2657.87 up 8.54 from Tuesday's numerator of 2649.33. 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 $88.60 up 9 cents from Tuesday's average closing price of $88.31. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $87.83 (UNH/AXP) down 40 cents from Tuesday's median closing price of $88.23 (UNH/AXP). The lowest volume was Travelers and the highest volume was Microsoft.
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 $854 ($265,787 - $264,933).
9/10/14 Wed. 4:43 MarketWatch by Anora Mahmudova, & Victor Reklaitis says
U.S. stocks rose Wednesday, bouncing back from morning losses, as Apple Inc. and other tech stocks helped lead the way higher. Traders said while there was no single explanation for the turnaround, the market got a lift from Apple’s 3.1% jump and a new poll showing a majority of Scots favor remaining in the U.K. Investors have worried about Scotland potentially becoming independent after a poll over the weekend put those favoring independence ahead for the first time. The S&P 500 SPX, +0.36% rose 7.25 points, or 0.4%, to close at 1,995.69, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, +0.32% added 54.84 points, or 0.3%, to 17,068.71. Both indexes snapped two-day skids, but remain down for the week.The Nasdaq Composite COMP, +0.75% gained 34.24 points, or 0.8%, to finish at 4,586.52. The tech-heavy index is up 0.1% for the week.The Apple effect: Wall Street was upbeat on Apple following Tuesday’s unveiling of the iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, Apple Watch and a mobile payment system. Analysts deployed words like “magical” and “impressive” in their reports.
“That certainly helped the techs,” said Stephen J. Carl, head equity trader at the Williams Capital Group, referring to Apple’s advance on Wednesday. The iPhone maker was one of the S&P 500’s best performers for the session, and the IT sector fared best among the 10 S&P sectors.
US:AAPL
$90$95$100$105$85
Some stocks were shunned because of Apple’s moves. GT Advanced Technologies Inc. GTAT, -14.46% shares slid 14.5% after Apple said it won’t move toward broad use of sapphire screens, which GT provides. In addition, eBay Inc. EBAY, -3.09% shares fell 3.1% as analysts suggested its PayPal business will face greater competition thanks to Apple Pay.On the earnings front, Land’s End Inc. LE, +20.58% shares rallied 20.6% after the clothing retailer posted better-than-expected quarterly results, while Krispy Kreme Doughnuts KKD, -3.07% skidded 3.1% after the doughnut chain‘s adjusted profit missed forecasts. Fed jitters persist: The yield on the 10-year Treasurys gained, rising for the fifth consecutive session. Quincy Krosby, market strategist at Prudential Financial, said that in the absence of economic data, investors are remaining cautious until the next meeting of the Federal Open Market Committee. “Markets are sensitive to the end of QE and will be nervous until the crucial FOMC meeting and press conference next week. It is not unusual to see weakness after big gains last month,” Krosby said.Other markets: European markets SXXP, -0.05% closed mostly lower. Asian markets ADOW, -1.21% finished lower, with the exception of a small rise for the Nikkei NIK, +0.25% Gold prices GCZ4, +0.10% ticked up, while oil prices fell.

9/9/14 Tues. 4:29 MarketWatch by Anora Mahmudova, & Barbara Kollmeyer says
S&P 500 suffered its steepest one-day decline in five weeks while the Nasdaq Composite dropped the most since July 31. Broad-based losses were led by stocks from the telecom and utilities sectors.
Analysts attributed recent weakness to consolidation after strong gains from the past five weeks.
Fluctuation in Apple Inc’s shares contributed to the choppy session on Wall Street, as the tech group is the heaviest weighted stock on the S&P 500 and Nasdaq. Apple Inc. unveiled iPhone 6, ApplePay and Apple Watch and shares rose as high as 3.5%, but lost ground after the event and closed lower.
The S&P 500 SPX, -0.65% closed 13.1 points, or 0.7%, at 1,988.44. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, -0.57% dropped 97.55 points, or 0.6%, to 17,013.87. The Nasdaq Composite COMP, -0.87% shed 40 points, or 0.9%, to 4,552.29.“The S&P 500 continues to consolidate around the technical resistance level of 2,000 and it could do so for a while,” said Randy Frederick, managing director of trading & derivatives at Schwab Center for Financial Research.
“We are also at a juncture where stocks are fairly priced, not too expensive, but not too cheap either. In the absence of earnings news or major economic data, it is not unusual to see sideways moves,” he added. WSJ personal technology editor Wilson Rothman joins Simon Constable on Digits to outline three key things consumers and investors will look for at Apple's new product event on Tuesday. Stocks on the move: The iPhone maker AAPL, +0.11% unveiled the newest version of its flagship phone and a new Apple Watch wearable device. Shares rose as much as 3.5%, but closed slightly lower. McDonald’s MCD, -1.52% shares fell 1.5% after the fast-food restaurant chain said global comparable sales fell 3.7% in August and blamed “several headwinds” for the decline. The company warned that problems with a supplier in China will hurt third-quarter results. Shares of Annie’s Inc. BNNY, +37.57% rose 38%, on the heels of a similar late-session rally after General Mills Inc. GIS, -0.64% offered to buy the organic-foods company for $820 million in cash. Shares of Pinnacle Foods Inc. PF, -4.65% fell 4.6% after the packaged-foods company said some shareholders tied primarily to investment firm Blackstone will sell 15 million common shares. Barnes & Noble Inc. BKS, +2.95% shares were up 3% after the bookseller’s fiscal second-quarter profit jumped thanks to cost cuts, masking a bigger-than-expected decline in revenue.Other markets: The yield on the 10-year Treasurys 10_YEAR, +1.13% rose 3 basis points to 2.5%, its highest since the beginning of August on a closing basis. Brent crude oil prices LCOV4, -0.97% held steady $99 a barrel, while the dollar charted new highs against the yen USDJPY, +0.16% and the euro EURUSD, +0.34% Europe stocks SXXP, -0.35% posted mild losses, while Asia markets ADOW, -0.29% saw mostly modest gains.
