Post No. 2,890 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 as of Sept. 24, 2014.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Wednesday at 16141.74 down 173.45 or 1.06% from Tuesday's close of 16315.19. Of the Dow components 6 gained and 24 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Johnson & Johnson up $1.20 or 1.24%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Walmart down $2.78 and percentage-wise was JPMorgan down 4.24%.
As of the open of the market on Wednesday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of Wednesday's Wall St. Journal is 0.15571590501117. Wednesday's trailing P/E ratio is 15.39 down from Tuesday's trailing P/E ratio of 15.65 (last year it was 15.62). Wednesday's P/E estimate is 14.73 unchanged from Tuesday's P/E estimate of 14.73 (year ago it was 14.13) and Wednesday's dividend yield is 2.31 up from Tuesday's dividend yield of 2.28 (last year it was 2.16). The Dow's all-time high was 17279.74 on September 19, 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 2513.53 down 37 from Tuesday's numerator of 2540.53. 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 $83.78 down 88 cents from Tuesday's average closing price of $84.68. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $82.56 (UNH/PG) down $2.99 from Tuesday's median closing price of $85.85 (PG/DIS). The lowest volume was Travelers and the highest volume was Intel.
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 lost $3,700 ($254,053 $251,353).
10/15/14 Wed. 4:51 MarketWatch by Anora Mahmudova says Wall Street flirted with its worst decline in more than 3 years in a roller -coaster day of trading that culminated with shares recovering from the depths of what began as a bona fide market rout Wednesday. U.S. stocks sold off amid the largest volume in nearly three years, as investors jettisoned risky securities and scrambled for the safety of government bonds as 10-year Treasurys surged and yields briefly dipped below 2%, until settling at a 52-week low. Implied volatility on the S&P 500, as measured by the CBOE Vix index jumped to levels not seen in more than 2 years. Vix rose 15% to 26. The S&P 500 briefly turned negative for the year before rebounding and on intraday basis recorded a 9.8% decline from peak to trough. The benchmark index closed down 15.21 points, or 0.8%, to 1,862.49. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell as much as 460 points, but finished down 173.45 points, or 1.1%, to 16,141.74. The Nasdaq Composite at one point entered correction territory, falling more than 10% from its previous peak, but regained its footing, finishing with modest losses. The tech-heavy index closed down 11.85 points, or 0.3%, to 4,215.32. Meanwhile, the Russell 2000 defied selling pressure and finished the day up 7 points, or 0.7%, at 1,069. Recap of today’s stock market coverage live blog.
Strategists at Voya Investment Management blamed a “perfect storm” on the selloff. That storm includes: “The surging dollar, plummeting oil prices and recessionary bond yields are creating havoc in the markets because they are signaling deflation. No, not just in Europe but globally as well,” they wrote in a note. Disappointing economic reports added to already jittery sentiment on Wall Street. Reports on manufacturing in the state of New York and U.S. wholesale prices missed expectations, and a reading on retail sales showed a decline for the first time in eight months. Today’s market-moving news: The financial sector led the rout in U.S. stocks on Wednesday, as investors grew concerned about a range of issues from the economy to inflation to the current Ebola outbreak.
Bank of America reported a third-quarter loss that was smaller than expected, however, shares fell 4.6%. J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. was the biggest loser in the Dow Jones Industrial Average falling 4.2%. The Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund , which tracks financial stocks in the S&P 500 SPX fell 3.4%.AbbVie Inc. shares rose 0.9% after the U.S. drug maker indicated it’s reconsidering a $54 billion deal to buy Shire PLC in light of new Treasury rules that make that deal less attractive. Shares of Shire slumped 22% in London, weighing on the FTSE 100, while its U.S.-listed shares sank 30%.
The AbbVie news spilled over to other so-called inversion plays. Covidien PLC, which earlier this year agreed to be acquired by Medtronic Inc., led S&P 500 decliners, falling 7%.Hazmat-suit related companies that recently rallied on Ebola fears were surging once again. Shares of Lakeland Industries Inc. rallied 10%, Alpha Pro Tech Ltd. jumped 14% and Versar Inc. soared 65.24% to $6.94. Read more in the Movers & Shakers column.American Express , Netflix Inc. and eBay Inc. report after the close. Other markets: Asian stocks largely rebounded from Tuesday losses. European stocks skidded, and the benchmark Stoxx Europe 600 has fallen more than 10% from its 2014 high reached in June, putting it in correction territory.Crude-oil prices fell slightly, while gold prices edged up.

The following are excerpts from Wed. morning's Blog:
A read of the print editions of Wednesday's Wall Street Journal, Financial Times, Investor's Business Daily, USA Today, New York Times & Atlanta Journal & Constitution & Daily Report (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 Tuesday at 16315.19 down 5.88 or 0.04% from Monday's close of 16321.07 .For the year the Dow is down 1.58%. Of the Dow components 18 gained and 12 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Boeing up $1.84 and percentage-wise was Intel up 2.13%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Chevron down $2.25 and percentage-wise was Johnson & Johnson down 2.13%.
NYT pB9 "Earnings season and surge by airlines give investors break from volatility" by AP says the market stabilized on Tues after 3 straight days of heavy losses. A slump in energy stocks stymied a modest early rally as oil prices plunged the most in 2 years. Chevron fell 2%. Johnson & Johnson reported results that were better than expected and raised its '14 earnings outlook due to rev gains from its new hepatitis drug Olysio.
IBD pB5 "Rebound attempt fizzles as indexes close poorly" by Juan Carlos Arancibia says the stock market made a feeble rebound Tues doing nothing to alter its bearish overtones as the current outlook is market is in correction.
FT p23 "Wall Street J&J slips despite upbeat forecasts as drugmakers being to report" by Mamta Badkar says Johnson & Johnson kicked off US pharma earnings by raising its full year forecast. JPMorgan's shares slipped after its results came in at the lower end of expectations.
Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average numerator is 2540.53 down 0.92 from Monday's numerator of 2541.45. 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 $84.68 down 4 cents from Monday's average closing price of $84.72. The median closing price of Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $85.85 (PG/DIS) down 8 cents from Monday's median closing price of $85.93 (UNH/DIS). The lowest volume was Visa 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 lost $92 ($254,145 - $254,053).
10/14/14 Tues. 4:35 MarketWatch by Anora Mahmudova & Barbara Kollmeyer says the U.S. stock market ended Tuesday’s choppy session posting marginal gains. But equally important, Tuesday’s moves marked the first time the market closed mostly flat after registering wild swings in the previous five sessions. Stocks rose sharply in early Tuesday trading, boosted by better-than-expected earnings, but the main benchmarks trimmed gains by late afternoon, and briefly dipped into the red. The S&P 500 SPX, +0.16% closed 3 points, or 0.2%, higher at 1,877.70. The benchmark index still sits below its 200-day moving average, after breaching the level on Monday for the first time in nearly two years. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, -0.04% swung between gains and losses and closed down 5.9 points at 16,315.19, the lowest level since April 5. The Nasdaq Composite COMP, +0.32% gained 13 points, or 0.3%, to 4,227.7.The Russell 2000 SPX, +0.16% outperformed its large-cap counterpart and closed up 12 points, or 1.2%, at 1,061.60.Stuart Freeman, chief equity strategist at Wells Fargo Advisors, urged investors to keep volatility in perspective and not be scared of daily moves, saying volatility is normal in equity markets. Freeman also advised investors to consider investment horizons and be well diversified. Investors welcomed strong earnings results from Citigroup Inc. and Johnson & Johnson, which earlier outweighed downbeat German sentiment data that hit equities across Europe. Earnings in focus: Citi C, +3.15% shares popped up 3.2% after third-quarter profit and revenue rose from the year-earlier period. Citi also plans to pare back from retail banking in smaller countries. Meanwhile, Wells Fargo & Co. WFC, -2.73% shares slipped 2.7% even as the bank’s quarterly profit met expectations but revenue beat estimates. Shares in Southwest Airlines Co. LUV, +3.88% rose 3.9% and Delta Air Lines Inc. DAL, +6.12% rallied 6.1% as concerns about a global Ebola pandemic eased. Domino’s Pizza Inc. DPZ, +11.33% jumped 11% after the chain delivered better-than-expected results. Among other stocks in focus, Versar Inc. VSR, +16.67% surged 17%. Its PPS unit makes hazmat suits and mobile decontamination shelters. Other stocks linked to concerns over the Ebola virus continued a pattern of pushing higher. Lakeland Industries Inc. LAKE, -26.10% and Alpha Pro Tech Ltd. APT, -1.49% fell more than 26%, after soaring during the previous few sessions on Ebola fears. Other markets: European stocks SXXP, -0.01% fell after a key sentiment survey out of Germany turned negative. Burberry Group PLC BRBY, -3.65% shares dropped after the luxury-goods maker posted a rise in sales, but cited unfavorable foreign exchange headwinds and Chinese weakness. U.K. inflation fell to a five-year low. The European Court of Justice has begun holding a hearing on the European Central Bank’s Outright Monetary Transactions bond-buying program. In Asia, the Nikkei 225 index NIK, -2.38% sank 2.4%, falling below the 15,000 level and skidding to two-month lows.
Crude-oil prices CLX4, -4.18% drifted lower, and gold GCZ4, +0.21% inched up, while the dollar ( USDJPY, +0.16% pulled back from an overnight slip against the Japanese yen.
