Post No. 2,830 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 Friday at 16987.51 down 61.49 or 0.36% from Thursday's close of 17049. For the week the Dow is down 149.85 or 0.87% from last Friday's close of 17,137.36 . Of the Dow components 5 gained and 25 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Goldman Sachs up $2.17 or 1.2%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Exxon down $1.25 or 1.29%.
As of the open of the market on Friday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C5 of Friday's Wall St. Journal is 0.15571590501117. Friday's trailing P/E ratio is 16.18 up from Thursday's trailing P/E ratio of 16.12 (last year it was 15.96). Today's P/E estimate is 15.10 unchanged from Thursday's P/E estimate of 15.10 (year ago it was 13.43) and today's dividend yield is 2.22 up from yesterday's dividend yield of 2.21 (last year it was 2.45). 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.
Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average numerator is 2645.23 down 9.57 from Thursday's numerator of 2654.80. 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 $88.17 down 32 cents from Thursday's average closing price of $88.49. The median closing price of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $86.91 (UNH/AXP) down 84 cents from Thursday's median closing price of $87.75 (UNH/AXP). The lowest volume was Travelers and the highest volume was Microsoft.
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 $957 ($265,480 - 264,523).
9/12/14 Fri. 4:12 MarketWatch by Anora Mahmudova, & Carla Mozee says
The U.S. stock market closed lower on Friday as rising Treasury yields and the prospect of next week’s Fed rate meeting made investors cautious. The S&P 500 retreated from record high levels throughout the week amid speculation that the Federal Reserve may signal the arrival of interest-rate increases sooner than expected. A solid rise in monthly retail sales and stronger-than-expected consumer sentiment data had virtually no impact on stock prices Friday.The main benchmarks recorded their first weekly loss in six weeks, as investors continued to consolidate strong gains last month. The S&P 500 SPX, -0.60% closed 12 points, or 0.6%, lower at 1,985.55, as utilities and energy-sector stocks led losses. The Dow industrials DJIA, -0.36% dropped 61.49 points, or 0.4%, to 16,987.51. The Nasdaq Composite COMP, -0.53% fell 24 points, or 0.5%, to 4,567.60.Kristina Hooper, U.S. investment strategist at Allianz Global Investors, said that near-term small selloff in September and October is not surprising.“Retail sales data were positive and suggest the economy is growing steadily. But there is trepidation among investors, ahead of next week’s Fed meeting and whether the Fed will change the language over the timing of the interest-rate increases,” Hooper said.
“Scotland’s vote on independence next week is also weighing on sentiment. But in the long term, those issues do not have anything to do with fundamentals, which remain solid,” she added.
Data: Friday’s data on retail sales and consumer sentiment pointed at an improving economy, yet market reaction was muted. Sales at U.S. retailers rose in August by the largest amount since April, raising confidence in the economic outlook for the second half of the year. The preliminary September reading on the University of Michigan/Thomson Reuters consumer-sentiment index rose to the highest level since July 2013 and topped consensus expectations. Colin Cieszynski, chief market strategist at CMC Markets, said retail sales data didn’t provide enough of a surprise to prop up markets.“The fact that markets did not react positively to data that showed good growth means that those results have already been fully priced into stock markets,” Cieszynski said.Stocks to watch: Yahoo! Inc shares rallied 3.9% and gained more than 8% over the past week, as the prospect of a big cash windfall after the IPO of Alibaba made the stock attractive. Yahoo holds roughly a 23% stake in Alibaba and intends to sell those during the IPO.Darden Restaurants DRI, -1.47% shares rose 1.4% after adjusted first-quarter results and sales exceeded Wall Street’s projections.Ulta Salon Cosmetics & Fragrance ULTA, +17.86% shares jumped 21% after the retailer raised its outlook and reported growth in earnings and sales in the second quarter.Alliance Data Systems Corp. ADS, +1.99% which owns private-label credit cards and runs loyalty programs, said late Thursday it will buy Conversant CNVR, +30.29% for $35 a share in a deal valued at about $2.3 billion. Alliance shares rose 3.7% and Conversant’s share soared 31% to $34.94.Other markets: In Asia, stocks listed in Japan NIK, +0.25% and Hong Kong HSI, -0.27% finished lower. The dollar USDJPY, +0.22% climbed to a six-year high against the yen above ¥107.European stocks SXXP, +0.00% ended Friday largely unchanged. Gold prices GCZ4, -0.70% shed $7 an ounce, and oil futures CLV4, -0.62% settled little changed.

The following are excerpts from Friday morning's Blog:
A read of the print editions of Friday'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 Thursday's closing stock prices and related data in alphabetical order.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average: The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Thursday at 17049 down 19.71 or 0.12% from Wednesday's close of 17068.71. For the year the Dow is up 2.85%. Of the Dow components 13 gained, Intel was unchanged and 16 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Goldman Sachs up $1.13 and percentage-wise was Cisco up 1%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Verizon down $1.93 and percentage-wise was Merck down 1.09%.
WSJ pC4 "Dow hits a bump in road slips 0.1%" by Alexandra Scaggs says the Dow felt the weight of a recent rise in long term interest rates & renewed geopolitical concerns.
FT p21 "Wall street" by Eric Platt says overall US equity markets struggled for direction as markets in Asia and Europe broadly declined.
NYT pB8 "A slow start to September continues for Wall st." & AJC pA11 "Sluggishness continues" by AP says stocks ended the day mixed after gains for dividend rich utilities offset a slump in health care firms.
Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average numerator is 2654.80 down 3.07 from Wednesday's numerator of 2657.87. 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 Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $88.49 down 11 cents from Thursday's average closing price of $88.60. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $87.75 (UNH/AXP) down 8 cents from Wednesday's median closing price of $7.83 (UNH/AXP). The lowest volume was Travelers and the highest volume was Microsoft.
If Thursday 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 $307 ($265,787 - $265,480).
9/11/14 Thurs. 4:12 MarketWatch by Anora Mahmudova, & Carla Mozee says marginal gains on Wall Street were led by small-cap stocks on Thursday. Trading was choppy, as an unexpected increase in weekly jobless claims and falling commodities prices encouraged investors to remain cautious. The main benchmarks finished in positive territory after trading in a tight range and spending much of the session in the red. The S&P 500 SPX, +0.09% ended 1.8 points, or 0.1%, higher at 1,997.45, as utilities and telecoms led the gains. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, -0.12% closed down 19.71 points, or 0.1%, to 17,049.00. The Nasdaq Composite COMP, +0.12% tacked on 5.3 points, or 0.1%, to 4,591.81. The Russell 2000 RUT, +0.63% added 6.7 points, or 0.6%, to preliminary 1,171.72.Kate Warne, an investment strategist at Edward Jones, said that stock markets are still consolidating gains from August.“Until the Fed meeting next week, investors are adopting a ‘wait and see’ approach. Another factor adding to the weakness is falling oil prices that are hurting oil companies,” Warne said.Economic data: The number of people who applied for jobless benefits last week unexpectedly rose, reaching the highest level since late June. Ian Shepherdson, chief economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics, dismissed the rise as Labor Day seasonal factors. “As a proportion of payrolls, claims are now close to all-time lows, so it would be unreasonable to expect a significant further decline in the headline numbers over the next year. Equally, though, we see no reason for claims to starting heading back up, and they are consistent now with payroll gains of 250K or more,” he said in emailed comments.Last week’s report of weaker-than-expected job creation during August had spurred speculation that the Fed would hold off on raising interest rates. But recent gains in U.S. Treasury yields reflect concern that the Fed may signal that a rate hike is in store during the first quarter of 2015 at next week’s meeting. 10-Year Treasury yields rose 1 basis point to 2.55%. Stocks to watch: RadioShack RSH, +9.56% shares rallied 1.2% as the electronics retailer said it’s in advanced talks with a number of parties over its strategic options. Actions may include debt restructuring and store consolidations. LuluIemon shares jumped following stronger-than-expected earnings from the yoga-gear maker. Shares of Lululemon LULU, +13.91% jumped 14% after the yoga-gear maker raised its outlook following second-quarter results beat expectations. Pandora Media Inc. P, +3.22% shares rose 3.5% after the music streaming company said it reached a multiyear licensing agreement with BMG for BMI and ASCAP’s catalog of musical works. Other markets: Hong Kong stocks HSI, -0.17% extended their losing streak to five sessions, while European stocks SXXP, -0.12% were mixed. Gold prices GCZ4, -0.05% fell for a fourth straight session Thursday. Oil futures CLV4, +0.22% gained footing and were pared losses after the International Energy Agency again cut its oil-demand forecast for this year.
