Post No. 3,060 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 17985.77 down 44.08 or 0.24% from Wednesday's close of 18029.85. Of the Dow components 10 gained and 20 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Boeing up $2.58 or 1.71%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Walmart down $2.77 or 1.71%.
As of the open of the market on Thursday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C5 of Thursday's Wall St. Journal is 0.15571590501117. Thursday's trailing P/E ratio is 16.96 unchanged from yesterday's trailing P/E ratio of 16.96 (last year it was 15.74). Today's P/E estimate is 16.73 unchanged from Wednesday's P/E estimate of 16.73 (year ago it was 14.25) and today's dividend yield is 2.46 up from yesterday's dividend yield of 2.45 (last year it was 2.21). 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.
Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average numerator is 2800.67 down 6.81 from Wednesday's numerator of 2807.48. 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 $93.36 down 22 cents from Wednesday's average closing price of $93.58. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $87.33 (PG/XOM) down 36 cents from Tuesday's median closing price of $88.65 (WMT/XOM). The lowest volume was V and the highest volume was GE.
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 lost $681 ($280,748 - $280,067).
2/19/15 Thur. 4:24 pm MarketWatch by Anora Mahmudova & Sarah Sjolin says U.S. stocks ended Thursday’s thinly-traded session mostly lower, as investors grappled with a drop in oil prices and a continued impasse between Greece and its creditors over loans. Meanwhile, mixed economic reports stoked uncertainty about the Federal Reserve’s timetable for hiking rates.The S&P 500 SPX, -0.11% ended 2.23 points, or 0.1%, lower at 2,097.45, with six of its 10 main sectors closing lower. Technology and consumer discretionary stocks led the gains, while utilities and telecoms stocks saw biggest declines.The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, -0.24% dropped 44.08 points, or 0.2%, to 17,985.77, with two thirds of its 30 members finishing with losses. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc was the biggest decliner among the blue-chips. The Russell 2000 RUT, +0.00% ended flat at 1,227.74, breaking a four-day winning streak. The index of small companies set an intraday record earlier, but failed to close at a fresh high.Meanwhile, the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite COMP, +0.37% defied the general trend and closed 18.34 points, or 0.4%, higher at 4,924.70, closing higher for the seventh consecutive day.Kim Forrest, senior investment strategist at Fort Pitt Capital, said the oil price appreciation over the past few weeks was likely unwarranted.“There were no fundamental reasons for oil to recover from $43 to $53 a barrel, so I would argue that that was due to short-covering trades. So, when investors realize that there is a lot of oil stored, prices got hit again,” Forrest said.
“Weak opening on Wall Street is not surprising, as we have been getting a lot of weak data, despite strong unemployment figures. But as interest rates and inflation keep falling, multiples keep rising. The trend lately has been that stocks open weaker and rise towards the end,” she said. Forrest also cautioned that disinflation, which is primarily due to the oil plunge, is temporary.
“Just as disinflation is temporary, multiple expansion is temporary and when stocks get too expensive they have a tendency to drop dramatically,” she said.Oil blues: Energy companies and oil-related funds were hit, as crude-oil prices CLH5, -1.23% fell nearly 2%, settling at $51.16 a barrel. Among oil-tracking indexes, the iPath Goldman Sachs Crude Oil Total Return Index ETN OIL, +0.26% fell 1.1%, and the Velocity Shares 3X Long Crude ETN UWTI, +1.17% slumped 2.3%.

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 18029.85 down 17.73 or 0.10% from Tuesday's close of 18047.58. For the year the Dow is up 1.16%. Of the Dow components 12 gained and 18 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Nike up $1.76 or 1.92%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Chevron down $1.96 and percentage-wise was Exxon down 2.19%.
WSJ pC4 "Dow falls despite a boost from Fed" by Saumya Vaishampayan says US stocks drifted lower but ended up from their worst levels after the Fed meeting minutes showed no plan for when or how quickly to raise interest rates.
NYC pB2 "Shares mixed, showing minor effect from Fed news" by AP says the market barely budged after the release of the Fed's FOMC Jan meeting minutes.
Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average numerator is 2807.48 down 2.82 from Tuesday's numerator of 2810.30. 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 $93.58 down 5 cents from Tuesday's average closing price of $93.68. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $88.65 (WMT/XOM) down 36 cents from Tuesday's median closing price of $88.91 (WMT/NKE). The lowest volume was 3M 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 $282 ($281,030 - $280,748).
2/18/15 Wed. 4:25 pm MarketWatch by Anora Mahmudova & Sarah Sjolin says U.S. stocks ended marginally lower on Wednesday, as investors wrestled with interpreting minutes from the Federal Reserve’s latest policy meeting. Minutes showed that officials were not in a rush to raise interest rates, as “many” on the Fed said a premature rate hike would harm the recovery, while only “several” thought a later move would risk high inflation.Reaction on the stock market was smaller than in the bond market. Treasurys rallied, driving yields down 6 basis pints to 2.08%.The S&P 500 SPX, -0.03% closed less than a point below its previous closing record, reached on Tuesday, ending at 2,099.66. Energy stocks led losses following a drop in oil prices. Utilities jumped more than 2%, leading gains.The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, -0.10% fell 17.41 points, or 0.1%, to 18,030.17. More than two-thirds of its 30 members ended lower, with Exxon Mobil and Chevron Corp leading the decliners.The Nasdaq Composite COMP, +0.14% defied the trend and closed 7.10 points, or 0.1%, higher at 4,906.36.Anthony Valeri, investment strategist at LPL Financial, said that markets over the past several weeks got a little cautious, pricing in a rate hike in June. “Markets initially welcomed news that lower rates will stay for longer. Companies love easy money. The Fed has done a good job at managing market expectations and when Janet Yellen speaks in front of the Congress, we will get more clarity about the timing of the first rate hike,” he said.Earlier, markets had been under pressure following a batch of disappointing economic reports and continued stalemate between Greece and its creditors.Chris Gaffney, senior market strategist at EverBank Wealth Management, said the fact that markets reacted negatively to poor economic data is a positive, as it indicates markets are less dependent on the Federal Reserve’s policies.Despite Wednesday’s retreat, the S&P 500 held above certain resistance levels, challenging bearish investors. Jason Hunter, technical analyst at J.P. Morgan, wrote that he is not looking for a definitive move higher from the S&P 500’s current range, despite recent gains that have propelled the benchmark index to record levels.“While the market can advance further, our broader outlook for a mostly range-bound first half still stands,” Hunter wrote.Data: Economic releases on Tuesday came in weaker than expected. U.S. wholesale prices posted a record 0.8% decline in January after an unprecedented drop in energy costs, the Labor Department said Wednesday. The drop was larger than expected. Meanwhile, construction on new U.S. homes dropped 2% in January to an annual rate of 1.07 million units, as heavy snowfall hindered builders in some regions such as the Midwest and Northeast. The numbers matched consensus forecast of economists polled by MarketWatch. Industrial production rose a seasonally adjusted 0.2% in January, the Federal Reserve said Wednesday. Economists polled by MarketWatch had expected a 0.4% rise. Another sign of weakness came in a slight downward revision to output in the past four months.Angie’s List Inc. ANGI, -0.26% shares surged 59% to $7.77, after the company posted quarterly profit and revenue that topped Wall Street’s expectations.Boston Scientific Inc. BSX, +0.12% stock jumped 12% and was the top performer on the S&P 500. The biotech company late Tuesday said it has settled with Johnson & Johnson Inc. JNJ, +0.12% over the acquisition of Guidant Corp. in 2004.Fossil Group Inc. FOSL, -0.74% dropped 16% after the company late Tuesday reported adjusted fourth-quarter earnings that missed expectations, along with revenue that disappointed.Other markets: European stock markets moved firmly higher, boosted by optimism that the Greek debt drama could soon come to an end. Asian markets also got a lift from Greece and closed with gains. Crude-oil prices CLH5, -5.70% fell 3.3%, ending a three-session winning streak, that lifted priced more than 9%. Gold prices settled at the lowest level in nearly seven weeks, falling 0.7% to $1,200.20. The dollar DXY, -0.03% which was higher earlier, fell against its main rivals after the Fed minutes.
