Post No. 3,048 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 17862.14 down 6.62 or 0.04% from Tuesday's close of 17868.76. Of the Dow components 11 gained and 19 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Goldman Sachs up $3.09 or 1.67%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Nike down $1.44 and percentage-wise was Cisco down 2.04%.
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 16.84 up from yesterday's trailing P/E ratio of 16.71 (last year it was 15.66). Today's P/E estimate is 16.66 up from Tuesday's P/E estimate of 16.64 (year ago it was 14.09) and today's dividend yield is 2.45 down from yesterday's dividend yield of 2.47 (last year it was 2.17). 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 2781.42 down 1.03 from Tuesday's numerator of 2782.45. 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 Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $92.71 down 4 cents from Tuesday's average closing price of $92.75. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $88.47 (WMT/XOM) down 17 cents from Tuesday's median closing price of $88.65 (WMT/XOM. The lowest volume was 3M and the highest volume was Cisco.
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 $103 ($278,245 - $278,142).
2/11/15 Wed. 4:23 pm MarketWatch by Anora Mahmudova & Barbara Kollmeyer says
after switching between gains and losses, U.S. stocks ended Wednesday’s choppy session essentially flat. Investors remained jittery, amid worries about whether Greece and its creditors will reach an agreement to avoid a debt default. After a choppy session, the S&P 500 index SPX, +0.00% ended flat at 2,068.53. Four of the 10 main sectors finished higher, with consumer staples and technology stocks leading gains.The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, -0.04% dropped more than 100 points at session lows but recovered by the end of the day to end flat at 17,862.14, off 6.6 points.The Nasdaq Composite, however, COMP, +0.28% outperformed other indexes and rose 0.4%, to 4,801.18, largely thanks to a 2.3% gain in Apple Inc., its most significant component by weighting.
Headlines about Greece and whether it will leave the eurozone or restructure its debt have been driving markets lately.Greece’s new antiausterity government is meeting with eurozone finance ministers in Brussels, but few expect any deal to be reached today.Wall Street rallied on Tuesday on rumors that Greece could get a six-month extension to its bailout program. However, speculation was quashed quickly by German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schäuble. Greece’s current bailout plan expires on Feb. 28, and some fear it will run out of money before then. Channing Smith, portfolio manager at Capital Advisors, expects markets to tread water, while headlines from Greece dominate the general mood on Wall Street.“The earnings season is almost behind us and outlooks have been pretty disappointing. Assuming the U.S. economic growth remains at 2%-2.5%, it is difficult to argue that corporations will be able to keep expanding margins, the way they did in the latest reported quarter,” Smith said.Speaking about valuations, Smith noted that at current prices stocks are expensive, even in the beaten down energy sector. “Investors are faced with above-average risk and below-average returns at current valuations. Even in the energy sector, we are still not finding enough value given the risks. We don’t know if the oil price recovery will be V-shaped or U-shaped and that will determine what cash flows and earnings will look like,” he added.

2/10/15 Tues. 4:40 pm MarketWatch by Anora Mahmudova & Barbara Kollmeyer says
U.S. stocks rallied at the end the day Tuesday, sending the benchmark S&P 500 to its highest close this year, during what was another characteristically volatile day for equities. Investor optimism was fueled by hopes that embattled Greece and its creditors are nearing a compromise to avert a default, even though both sides continued to reiterate statements that suggests an accord is far from imminent. Earlier in the trading session, European and U.S. equities got a boost after news reports offered hope that the European Commission was considering a six-month debt extension. However, investors remained optimistic even though rumors of an extension were dismissed by Germany’s finance minister Wolfgang Schäuble.The S&P 500 SPX, +1.07% closed 21.84 points, or 1.1%, higher at 2,068.58 and turned positive for the year. Nine of the 10 main sectors finished higher, while energy-sector stocks ended with modest losses, following a drop in oil prices. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, +0.79% jumped 139.55 points, or 0.8%, to 17,868.76, with 26 of its 30 member ending with gains. The Nasdaq Composite COMP, +1.30% added 61.63 points, or 1.3%, to 4,787.64, helped by a big gain in Apple, Inc., the heaviest-weighted component in the tech-laden index.Bill Stone, chief investment strategist at PNC Wealth Management, said optimism about a possible solution to the Greek debt problems was driving markets higher.“News that Greece and the European Union will find a solution before the deadline has spurred some buying. Markets obviously would like to see a deal, rather than a default. But at the same time, the possibility of no deal is also being priced in,” Stone added.In Greece, officials said late Monday that they plan to propose a debt-compromise plan to creditors in Brussels on Wednesday. The country still plans to reject some of the strictest austerity conditions, and the brinkmanship between Greece and its international creditors has been rattling markets for days. However, according to the Wall Street Journal, Greece will proceed with the privatization of the country’s main port. In economic news, small-business sentiment slipped in January on a decline in optimism over sales growth and business conditions, according to a gauge released Tuesday. Separately, job openings in the U.S. rose in December to the highest since 2001 — and the number of people hired climbed to the highest level since 2007, government data showed Tuesday. The report follows last week’s strong jobs report, which showed the economy added 257,000 jobs in January.
