Post No. 3,007 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 17613.68 down 27.16 or 0.15% from Tuesday's close of 17613.68. Of the Dow components 3 gained and 27 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Merck up 45 cents or 0.72 . The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Goldman Sachs down $4.70 and percentage-wise was JPMorgan down 3.45%.
As of the open of the market on Wednesday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C5 of Wednesday's Wall St. Journal is 0.15571590501117. Wednesday's trailing P/E ratio is 16.26 down from yesterday's trailing P/E ratio of 16.58 (last year it was 16.94). Today's P/E estimate is 15.05 unchanged from Tuesday's P/E estimate of 15.05 (year ago it was 14.82) and today's dividend yield is 2.47 up from yesterday's dividend yield of 2.46 (last year it was 2.09). The Dow's all-time high was 18053.71 on December 26, 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 2713.68 down 29.05 from Tuesday's numerator of 2742.73. 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 $91.42 down 15 cents from Tuesday's average closing price of $91.42. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $89.82 (XOM/PG) down 23 cents from Tuesday's median closing price of $90.15 (XOM/PG). The lowest volume was 3M and the highest volume was JPMorgan.
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 $2,905 ($274,273 - $271,368).
1/14/15 Wed. 4:28 pm MarketWatch by Anora Mahmudova & Barbara Kollmeyer says
a late-afternoon rally, triggered by a rebound in beaten-down oil prices, was not enough to lift U.S. stocks out of negative territory on Wednesday. The key benchmarks closed with losses for the fourth straight session. The market’s selloff began even before the official start of trading for U.S. stocks, on the heels of surprisingly weak December retail sales, which cast doubt on the pace of economic growth. Weighing on stocks in early trade were disappointing results from banking giant J.P. Morgan Chase & Co., a a continued slide in commodity prices, as well the World Bank’s downward revisions to its global-growth forecast. The S&P 500 SPX, -0.58% declines were broad-based, with eight of 10 main industry groups ending lower. Financials and materials led losses, while utilities rallied. Beaten-down energy sector stocks swung from a 2% loss to end with a gain of 0.1%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, -1.06% dropped as much as 300 points, but closed down 186.59 points, or 1.1%, lower at 17,427.09, with 27 of it 30 of its components ending with losses. JPMorgan Chase & Co was the top decliner on the index. Declines on the Nasdaq Composite COMP, -0.48% ended the session down 22.18 points, or 0.5%, at 4,639.32. Joseph Saluzzi, co-founder and co-head of equity trading at Themis Trading, commenting on big swings in prices, said intraday volatility is indicative that markets are functioning normally. “Today’s selloff is a sign of nervousness, primarily stemming from a combination of a plunge in the copper prices and terrible sales numbers. When investors are paying 2.4% yield for 30-year Treasury bonds, that either means there are no alternatives or investors are worried about global economy,” Saluzzi said. “When pullbacks become frequent, as they have since October, it usually signal that a steeper correction is imminent, he added. A drop in retail sales, even when you strip out volatile gas and auto components, surprised many analysts, who were expecting a modest rise. But the drop implied that lower gasoline prices are not having a desired positive effect on consumer spending. “Surprisingly weak US retail sales figures may shed some doubt on the hypothesis that falling gasoline prices will provide a helpful boost (analogous to a tax cut) to consumer spending,“ wrote Rob Carnell, economist at ING Financial Markets in emailed comments. “More worryingly, with the US about the only beacon of growth globally, if even this engine is spluttering, then a more substantial market correction than we have already seen may well be on the cards,” Carnell added. Not all analysts viewed the retail sales numbers as outright negative.
“You can expect to read about how the December [retail sales] data mean people are choosing not to spend their gas price windfall, but that view is deeply myopic. The trend in spending is rising strongly, with big gains ahead as the lagged effect of the drop in gas prices kicks in fully,” wrote Ian Shepherdson, chief economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics.

The following are excerpts from Wed. morning's Blog:
A read of the print editions of Wednesday's Wall Street Journal, Investor's Business Daily, Financial Times, 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 Tuesday at 17613.68 down 27.16 or 0.15% from Monday's close of 17640.84. For the year the Dow is down 1.17%. Of the Dow components 11 gained, AT&T was unchanged and 18 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Visa up 76 cents and percentage-wise was Disney up 0.77. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Chevron down $1.68 and percentage-wise was DuPont down 1.71%.
USAT p1B "5 reasons Dow lost its mojo" by Adam Shell says the Dow blew a 280 point gain Tues to end in the red and its massive reversal is a negative sign.
NYT pB8 "Markets lose ground on an up and down day" & AJC pA11 "Stocks end seesaw day lower" by AP says stocks swung from gains to losses but fell as oil closed lower.
Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average numerator is 2742.73 down 4.23 from Monday's numerator of 2746.96. 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 $91.42 down 15 cents from Monday's average closing price of $91.57. The median closing price of Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $90.15 (XOM/PG) down 2 cents from Monday's median closing price of $90.17 (WMT/XOM). The lowest volume was Travelers and the highest volume was GE.
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 $423 ($274,696 - $274,273).
1/13/15 Tues. 4:49 pm MarketWatch by Anora Mahmudova & Barbara Kollmeyer says
the U.S. stock market ended Tuesday’s volatile session, punctuated by massive triple-digit swings in the key benchmarks, slightly lower. The Dow’s dramatic reversal from a gain of as much as 280 points to big losses reflected the lack of conviction and confidence among investors as crude oil’s unabated slide stoked fears of global deflation.The steep downdraft in stocks came as the market was enjoying a rally Tuesday morning, underpinned by better-than-expected earnings from the industrial bellwether Alcoa, and hopes that ECB is close to providing quantitative easing. The temporary, but significant surge was attributed to mostly short-covering action, especially in exchange traded funds, as traders noted that volumes for individual stocks were light. By late midday, all of the gains in stocks had evaporated and the key indexes were registering losses.The S&P 500 SPX, -0.26% fell for the third day in a row, with eight of its 10 main industry groupings finishing lower. Materials and energy sector stocks sold off sharply. The index lost 5.22 points, or 0.3%, to 2,023.04.The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, -0.15% dropped about 400 points from its session high, as two-thirds of its components ended with losses. The blue-chip index briefly ventured into positive territory for the year, but was back in the red year-to-date, losing 27.16 points, or 0.2%, to 17,613.68.The Nasdaq Composite COMP, -0.07% closed 3.21 points, or 0.1%, at 4,661.50.Meanwhile, implied volatility on the S&P 500, known as Wall Street’ fear gauge as measured by the CBOE Vix VIX, +4.90% index, spiked above 20, gaining more than 16% over the past two days.Peter Cardillo, chief market economist at Rockwell Global Capital, said that Tuesday’s early enthusiasm was due to Alcoa’s better-than-expected results.“Gains evaporated and stocks fell again because commodities, not just oil, keep falling and investors fear that deflation is spreading,” Cardillo said. Volatility on Wall Street is not spooking some strategists.
