Post No. 2,836 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 Thursday at 17265.99 up 109.14 or 0.64% from Wednesday's close of 17156.85. Of the Dow components 25 gained and 5 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Goldman Sachs up $3.07 and percentage-wise was DuPont up 2.82%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Chevron down 58 cents and percentage-wise was Exxon down 0.48%.
As of the open of the market on Thursday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C6 of Thursday's Wall St. Journal is 0.15571590501117. Thursday's trailing P/E ratio is 16.24 up from Wednesday's trailing P/E ratio of 16.14 (last year it was 16.35). Thursday's P/E estimate is 15.10 unchanged from Wednesday's P/E estimate of 15.10 (year ago it was 13.85) and Thursday's dividend yield is 2.20 up from Wednesday's dividend yield of 2.21 (last year it was 2.39). The Dow's all-time high was 1726.99 on September 18, 2014. The 12 year low close for the Dow was on March 9, 2009 when it fell to 6,547.05.
Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average numerator is 2688.59 up 17 from Wednesday's numerator of 2671.59. 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 $89.62 up 57 cents from Wednesday's average closing price of $89.05. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $88.87 (AXP/UNH) up 84 cents from Wednesday's median closing price of $88.03 (AXP/UNH). 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 made $1,700 ($268,859 - $267,159).
9/18/14 Thurs. 4:07 MarketWatch by Anora Mahmudova, & Barbara Kollmeyer says
the S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at record levels on Thursday as investors welcomed the Federal Reserve’s commitment to low interest rates long after the ending of monetary stimulus. Earlier in the session, investors cheered China’s efforts to boost economic growth, while upbeat jobs data outweighed weakness in U.S. housing. The S&P 500 SPX, +0.49% added 9.79 points, or 0.5%, to 2,011.36, closing at a record high. Financials led Thursday’s gains.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, +0.64% gained 109.14 points, or 0.6%, to 17,265.99, also setting a new record. The Nasdaq Composite COMP, +0.68% rose 31.24 points, or 0.7%, to 4,593.43.According to Peter Cardillo, chief market economist at Rockwell Global Capital, enthusiasm ahead of Alibaba debut added to an overall positive market reaction among other factors.
Applications for jobless benefits dropped to the lowest level since mid-July, however, construction started on new U.S. homes tumbled in August, pulling back after a surge in July. Separately, U.S. manufacturers in the Philadelphia region continued to do brisk business in September as hiring intentions rose to a 31-year high, a strong signal that companies expect growth to improve over the rest of the year.News from China boosted global equities. China’s central bank cut short-term borrowing costs for banks on Thursday, the same week it announced a cash injection into the country’s five biggest banks. For markets, this is a “massive statement of intent,” amid growth concerns for the country, said Craig Erlam, market analyst at Alpari U.K. Stocks to watch: Alibaba BABA, +0.00% is expected to start trading on the New York Stock Exchange on Friday morning. The initial public offering could raise over $25 billion, making it the biggest ever. Rite Aid Corp. RAD, +0.18% is tumbling 19% after the drugstore chain slashed its outlook, blaming generic drugs.
Pier 1 Imports Inc. PIR, -18.53% sank 18% after earnings fell short of hopes and the company cut its forecast for the year late Wednesday. Other markets: The FTSE 100 UKX, +0.57% closed higher as Scottish voters headed to the polls, with indications still pointing to a narrow victory for unionists.
European stocks SXXP, +0.98% also got a lift from China’s cut in borrowing costs. Japanese stocks NIK, +1.13% climbed to an eight-month closing high, as the yen USDJPY, +0.26% hit a six-year low against the greenback, aiding export-related stocks. The euro EURUSD, +0.48% held steady after the European Central Bank allotted 82.6 billion euros in the first round of its new four-year loans, though that take-up fell short. Gold prices GCZ4, -0.78% settled $9 lower at $1,226.9 per troy ounce, pressured by a strong dollar.

WSJ pC1 "Dow hits a record, buoyed by the Fed" by Alexandra Scaggs, Ira Iosebashvili says the 5 year bull market in US stocks got a new lease on life, as investors embraced the steady as you go message the Fed is delivering on the economy & interest rates.

FT p25 "Wall Street" by Eric Platt says Nelson Peltz launched an attack on DuPont urging radical changes.
NYT pB2 "Market rises on Fed's assurance of low interest rates" & AJC pA13 "Builder outlook spurs gains": by AP says shares of homebuilders jumped Wed due to an index of builder confidence for new homes rising to its highest level in 9 years.
IBD pB3 "Indexes barely advance; transports lead upside" by David Saito-Chung says the stocks market rose but gave up most of the day's gains even after the Fed made it clear it is in no hurry to raise interest rates as Wednesday's action say thin gains in flat trade while the current outlook is uptrend under pressure.
Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average numerator is 2671.59 up 3.87 from Tuesday's numerator of 2667.72. This is the sum of all 30 closing prices.

9/17/14 Wed. 4:22 MarketWatch by Anora Mahmudova, & Barbara Kollmeyer says the U.S. stock market closed slightly higher Wednesday, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average reaching a record high. The main benchmarks swung higher after the Fed meeting and Fed Chairwoman Janet Yellen’s news conference but trimmed gains by the end of the session. In the end, the Federal Reserve stuck to its view that it will keep short-term interest rates near zero for a “considerable time” after the central bank ends large-scale purchases of bonds meant to stimulate the U.S. economy.
Janet Yellen didn’t commit any gaffes in her news conference, nor did she give any ground to the hawks on the committee and in the markets who wanted her to signal that rate hikes are just around the corner.The S&P 500 SPX, +0.13% rose 2.59 points, or 0.1 to 2.001.57. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, +0.15% added 24.88 points, or 0.2% to 17,156.85. The Nasdaq Composite COMP, +0.21% gained 9.43 points, or 0.2%, to 4,562.19.Tanweer Akram, senior economist at Voya Investment Management, said that while the Fed’s decision was in line with expectations, its subsequent decisions will still be contingent on data and the pace of recovery in the labor market.
“The fact that there is still slack in the labor market there is no inflationary pressure means the Fed will be cautious about withdrawing accommodation. In economic news, U.S. consumer prices fell in August for the first time in 16 months, largely because of a decline in the cost of gasoline. Separately, the U.S. current-account deficit fell to $98.5 billion in the second quarter from a revised $102.2 billion in the first quarter, the Commerce Department said Wednesday. A gauge of confidence among home builders rose in September to the highest level since November 2005, according to National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo data released Wednesday. Macro analyst Francesco Garzarelli lays out why the Fed is unlikely to shift its tone in September and why the dollar’s rally makes perfect sense.Stocks to watch: Auxilium Pharmaceuticals Inc. AUXL, +44.89% soared 45%, after news late Tuesday that Endo International PLC ENDP, +4.73% will buy it for $28.10 per share in a cash-and-stock deal. Endo was up 5%.
