Post No. 3,229 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.
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 17966.07 down 178 or 0.98% from Tuesday's close of 18144.07. For the year the Dow is up 0.80%. Of the 30 Dow components only Apple gained and 29declined. The only and therefore biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Apple up $1.08 or 0.85%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Goldman Sachs and percentage-wise was DuPont down 3.36%.
As of the open of the market on Thursday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C6 of Thursday's Wall St. Journal is 0.14985889030177. Thursday's trailing P/E ratio is 16.35 down from Wednesday's trailing P/E ratio of 16.42 (last year it was 16.50). Thursday's P/E estimate is 16.17 unchanged from Wednesday's P/E estimate of 16.17 (year ago it was 15.19) and Thursday's dividend yield is 2.32 up from Wednesday's dividend yield of 2.30 (last year it was 2.17). The Dow's all-time high was 18312.39 on May 19, 2015. The 12 year low close for the Dow was on March 9, 2009 when it fell to 6,547.05.
Wednesday's closing Dow Jones Industrial Average numerator is 2692.38 down 27.33 from Tuesday's average numerator of 2719.05. 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 (0.14985889030177) you get the change in today's Dow. A dollar increase or decrease in a Dow stock results in a $6.67 change in the Dow Index.
The average closing price (the closing numerator divided by 30) of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $89.75 down 89 cents from Tuesday's closing average of $90.64. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $86.42 (XOM/CAT) down 34 cents from Tuesday's median closing price of $86.76 (XOM/CAT). The lowest volume was Travelers and the highest volume was Apple.
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 $2,733 ($271,905 - $269,238).
6/24/15 Wed. 4:51 pm MarketWatch by Anora Mahmudova & Sara Sjolin says U.S. stocks ended lower on Wednesday after two consecutive sessions of gains, as Greece and its creditors made little progress in negotiating a debt deal which would avert a default. Selling on Wall Street began in early trade, but as it became clearer that an accord wouldn’t be reached Wednesday between Greece and its international creditors, the selloff intensified.Negotiations between Greece and its creditors made little progress.The S&P 500 SPX, -0.74% fell 15.62 points, or 0.7%, to 2,122.41, with losses across the board. Materials led the losses. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, -0.98% dropped 178 points, or 1%, to 17,996.07. Excluding Apple Inc., all Dow components finished lower. Transportation stocks were hit hard on Wednesday, with the Dow Transport index DJT, -1.86% falling nearly 2%. The Nasdaq Composite COMP, -0.Jim Paulsen, chief investment strategist at Wells Capital Management, noted that while Greece headlines are moving markets, the moves are less and less significant.“At this point, stock traders are watching the bond markets carefully, as changes in yields, which can happen rapidly, will affect stock prices,” he said. Government bonds rallied as investors sought safety of havens on Wednesday. 10-year Treasury yield TMUBMUSD10Y, -1.72% which moves inversely to prices dropped 3 basis point to 2.38%.Hopes that Greece and its creditors will reach a deal on Wednesday were dashed, as significant differences remained.U.S. data: The U.S. economy contracted by a revised 0.2 % in the first quarter, a smaller decline than previously reported that mainly reflects higher consumer spending and a lower drop in exports. Market reaction to data was mostly muted.Earnings: House builder Lennar Corp. LEN, +4.20% reported fiscal second-quarter earnings of 79 cents a share, beating forecasts of 64 cents a share. Shares rose 4.2%. Monsanto Co. MON, -5.73% shares fell 5.7% after the company’s revenue disappointed investors, even as profits topped estimates. General Motors Co. GM, -3.14% fell 3.1% after Goldman Sachs cut the car maker to neutral from buy. The analysts said they’d rotated into Ford Motor Co. F, +1.37% which they upgraded to buy from neutral. Ford shares climbed 1.4%.
Other markets: Asian stock markets closed higher, with Japan’s Nikkei 225 index NIK, +0.28% ending at a more-than-18-year high. European stocks closed lower, following news that Greek debt talks continue without a resolution. The ICE dollar index DXY, -0.13% was down 0.1% at 95.32. The greenback rallied 1.6 % against the euro on Tuesday, its largest one-day gain since May 19, after a strong new-home sales report and hawkish comments from Federal Reserve Governor Jerome Powell.Oil futures CLQ5, -0.08% dropped 1.2% to $60.27 a barrel, while gold futures GCQ5, +0.13% settled lower for a fourth session in a row, down 0.3% at $1,172.90.
