Post No. 2,923 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 17719 UP 33.27 OR 0.19% from Wednesday's close of 17685.73. Of the Dow components 18 gained, Pfizer was unchanged and 11 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Visa up $1.81 and percentage-wise was Intel up 4.66%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Disney down 92 cents or 1.02%.
As of the open of the market on Thursday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of Thursday's Wall St. Journal is 0.15571590501117. Thursday's trailing P/E ratio is 16.80 up from Wednesday's trailing P/E ratio of 16.76 (last year it was 16.33). Thursday's P/E estimate is 15.52 unchanged from Wednesday's P/E estimate of 15.52 (year ago it was 15.02) and Thursday's dividend yield is 2.17 unchanged from Wednesday's dividend yield of 2.17 (last year it was 2.07). The Dow's all-time high was 17719 on November 20, 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 2759.13 up 5.18 from Wednesday's numerator of 2753.95. 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 $91.97 up 17 cents from Wednesday's average closing price of $91.80. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $93.22 (AXP/XOM) up 16 cents from Wednesday's median closing price of $93.06 (AXP/XOM). The lowest volume was Travelers and the highest volume was Intel.
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 $518 ($275,913 - $275,395).
11/20/14 Thurs. 4:34 MarketWatch by Anora Mahmudova & Barbara Kollmeyer says
the U.S. stock market finished Thursday’s mostly subdued trading session slightly higher. The incremental gains on the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average, which came amidst thin trading volumes, were enough to send the indexes deeper into record territory. The S&P 500 SPX, +0.20% closed 4 points, or 0.2%, higher at 2,052.75, the 44th record close this year. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, +0.19% added 33.27 points, or 0.2%, to 17,719.00, logging its 27th record close in 2014. Diving deeper into Thursday’s trading action reveals, small companies outperformed the large, while gains in energy and technology sectors outweighed losses in healthcare and consumer staples. The Nasdaq Composite COMP, +0.56% ended the day up 26.16 points, or 0.6%, at 4,701.87, while the Russell 2000 rallied, adding 1.1% to 1,170.80.Kim Forrest, portfolio manager and senior equity analyst at Fort Pitt Capital Group, said that the stock market is very representative of the current economy.“Investors see the latest data as confirmation that the economy is getting better, but not fast enough. At this point, if we see a big rally into the year-end, it will only be at the expense of future gains,” Forrest said. Ahead of the opening bell, stock futures were under pressure after a batch of economic indicators from Europe and China showed weakness. However, markets were able to shake off those concerns following some upbeat data as well as better-than-expected earnings from retailers.Among Tuesday’s positive economic releases was a rise in existing home sales, a jump in the Philly Fed index and weekly jobless claims remaining below 300,000 for the 10th straight week.
Consumer prices were flat in October, while U.S. November Markit flash PMI was the weakest since January, declining for a third straight month
Economists are eager to view the Fed's minutes of the
Oct. 28-29 meeting to see whether some officials were more concerned
than the statement suggested. Goldman’s call for S&P 500 and data on tap: The
investment bank said in its equity outlook for 2015 that the S&P
500 should rise to 2,100 by the end of that year, making for a “modest”
5% total return. It added that the market reaction to the first Federal
Reserve rate hike in six years should be “benign.” But Goldman
also said 2015 will be challenging for active equity managers, as low
volatility is likely to remain a defining theme. The S&P 500 will
rise to 2,150 by mid-year, but then slip during the second half, it
forecast.Stocks in focus: Best Buy Co.
BBY, +6.98%
shares jumped 7% after earnings beat forecasts. Dollar Tree Inc.
DLTR, +5.17%
shares rose 5.2% after the
discount-retailer beat third-quarter sales and profit expectations,

CRM, -0.69%
fell 4.5% after the
cloud-computing company’s weak outlook overshadowed its slight beat on
the third quarter. Caesars Entertainment Corp.
CZR, +5.36%

News reported the casino operator plans to turn its largest unit into a
real-estate investment trust. In other markets : Markit reported that the flash November reading for the composite purchasing managers index in the eurozone dropped to 51.4, its lowest level in 16 months. After the release, European stocks
SXXP, -0.26%
tumbled, as did the euro
EURUSD, -0.12%
versus the dollar.The
data confirms that the eurozone is still in rough shape. Germany’s own
November preliminary manufacturing survey came in at 50.0, versus an
expected 51.5. Stock futures were also dealing with weakness in a similar gauge out of China, which showed factory activity declined in November, after gaining in the prior month. PMI data out of Japan was also weak.The dollar
USDJPY, +0.22%
eased against the Japanese yen at ¥118. The Nikkei 225 index
NIK, +0.07%
closed flat. Gold
GCZ4, -0.09%
drifted lower, while oil
CLZ4, +1.39%
rose more than 1% on hopes that
the global cartel of oil exporters will move to tighten the market.

The following are excerpts from Thursday morning's Blog:
A read of the print editions of Thursday'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 Wednesday's closing stock prices and related data in alphabetical order.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average: The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Wednesday at 17685.73 down 2.09 or 0.01% from Tuesday's close of 17687.82. For the year the Dow is up 6.7%. Of the Dow components 13 gained and 17 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Walmart up $1.20 and percentage-wise was Coke up 1.59%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was UnitedHealth down $1.33 or 1.35%.
WSJ pC6 "Stocks drift lower after fed minutes" by Saumya Vaishampayan, James Ramage says US stocks edged lower in quiet trading with the Dow & S&P falling back from their most recent records.
NYT pB12 "With no surprises from fed, market barely budges" by AP says the stock market pulled back slightly on Wed after the Fed lreleased the minutes of its Oct policy meeting.
FT p23 "Wall street" by Mamta Badkar says US stocks slipped lower Wed ahead of the release of the latest Fed res minutes.
IBD pB3 "Nasdaq, small caps take bigger losses in mild day" by David Saito-Chung says small caps took a body blow while Wednesday's action was dull to moderate losses in lower vol while the current outlook is a confirmed uptrend.
Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average numerator is 2753.95 down 0.23 from Tuesday's numerator of 2754.27. 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 $91.80 down 1 cent from Tuesday's average closing price of $91.81. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $93.06 (AXP/XOM) up 33 cents from Tuesday's median closing price of $92.73 (AXP/XOM). The lowest volume was Visa and the highest volume was GE.
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 $32 ($275,427 - $275,395).
11/19/14 Wed. 4:42 MarketWatch by Anora Mahmudova & Barbara Kollmeyer says the U.S. stock market rocked back and forth in the wake of the latest minutes from the last month’s meeting of the Federal Open Market Committee before closing marginally lower on Wednesday. After an initial positive jolt, the market shrank back, as Fed minutes revealed scant little insights about the U.S. central bank’s policy plans. There was no additional clarity about when interest rates would be hiked, as is expected next year.On Oct. 29, the Fed voted to end its asset purchase program, by a 9-1 vote, and repeated that rates are likely to stay near zero for “a considerable time,” adding language that the first move to raise rates could come sooner if the economy is stronger than expected.The S&P 500 SPX, -0.15% closed 3.1 points lower at 2,048.72, ending its four-day winning streak. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, -0.01% ticked down 2.1 points to 17,685.73.The Nasdaq Composite COMP, -0.57% finished down 26.73 points, or 0.6%, at 4,675.71.Quincy Krosby, market strategist at Prudential Financial, said that it is clear that the Fed is on the path of rate hikes.“The Fed is not likely to rush with raising rates until it begins seeing wage inflation pick up. To that end, they need more data to make a final decision,” Krosby said. In economic news, construction started on new U.S. homes fell in October, led down by volatile apartment construction. However, construction starts for single-family homes rose to hit the highest pace since November 2013. The headline number was slightly below forecasts and market reaction ahead of the opening bell was muted. aking lessons from last year's holiday stumbles, UPS and FedEx are strategizing over how to beat the rush online holiday orders. Laura Stevens reports on the News Hub. Retail names report: Lowe’s LOW, +6.37% shares jumped 6.4% after the home-improvement retailer lifted its sales outlook and beat forecasts with its results. LOW, +6.37% Staples SPLS, +9.09% also surged 9% after its earnings.Target TGT, +7.39% shares rallied 7.4% after earnings release.La-Z-Boy Inc. LZB, +6.20% added 6.2% after the furniture maker beat Wall Street expectations late Tuesday. Jack in the Box Inc. JACK, +4.78% shares rose 4.8% on a gain in sales. TransCanada Corp. TRP, +2.24% shares rose 2.2% even as the Senate last night narrowly rejected a bill to approve the construction of the company’s Keystone XL oil pipeline.Bank of Japan, Bank of England weigh in: The dollar USDJPY, -0.01% hit fresh seven-year highs against the yen, shooting past ¥117. The Bank of Japan on Wednesday stuck to maintaining its large-scale easing policy and its upbeat assessment of the economy despite downbeat economic -growth figures that prompted Prime Minister Shinzo Abe to delay a tax increase and call early elections.The Nikkei 225 NIK, -0.32% fell 0.3% in its first chance to react since Abe announced the plans.In the U.K., meanwhile, minutes of the Bank of England’s rate-setting Monetary Policy Committee’s November policy meeting hinted at deepening divisions and concerns from some members that the U.K. could overshoot its inflation target. The FTSE 100 index UKX, -0.19% pulled back initially, but rebounded to end slightly higher. European stocks SXXP, -0.04% closed essentially flat.Oil prices CLZ4, -0.44% were little changed, while gold GCZ4, -1.25% prices fell 1.2% to about $1,182 an ounce on news that support for a referendum requiring that the Swiss national bank hold at least a fifth of its reserves it gold was losing steam.
