Post No. 462. 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, a ranking of the Dow 30 components by market capitalization as of 5/1/10 and an update of the Dow 30 component's SEC filings as of 5/10/10.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Wednesday at 10,249.54 up 225.52 or 2.25% from Tuesday's close of 10,024.02. Of the 30 Dow Companies: all 39 gained. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was IBM $127.42 +3.08 2.48% 6,862,773 NYSE and percentage-wise was American Express AXP $40.96 +1.77 4.52% 14,682,573 NYSE.

As of the open of the market Wednesday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of today's Wall St. Journal is 0.132319125 unchanged, the trailing P/E ratio is 14.57 up from Tuesday's 14.74 (year ago it was 43.93) the P/E estimate is 12.62 unchanged from Tuesday's 12.62 (year ago it was 23.66) and the current dividend yield is 2.76 up from Tuesday's 2.73 (it was 3.51 a year ago). The Dow's all-time high was 14,164.53 on Oct. 9, 2007. 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 closing numerator was 1,356.21 up 30.84 from Tuesday's closing numerator of 1,326.37. 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 increase of 30.64 for Wednesday by the divisor (0.132319125) you get the increase in Wednesday's Dow of 225.52. A $1 change in the price of any DJIA stock = a 7.56 change in the average.

The average closing price (the closing numerator divided by 30) of Wedneday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $45.21 down $1.00 from Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $44.21.

The lowest volume was Travelers TRV $49.78 +1.18 2.43% 4,951,726 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $15.89 +0.45 2.91% 124,869,585 NYSE.

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) and sold at the close you would have made $2,993 ($135,630 - $132,636.94).

Market Watch 6/2/10 Wed. 4:19 pm by Nick Godt says U.S. stocks finished Wednesday's session sharply higher, led by a rebound in energy shares that were hit in the prior session on concerns over the BP Plc (BP 37.67, +0.01, +0.03%) oil spill. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA 10,250, +225.52, +2.25%) gained 225.82 points, or 2.3%, to 10,249.54. American Express (AXP 40.90, -0.07, -0.17%) led blue-chip gains, up 4.5%, followed by Disney (DIS 34.74, +1.41, +4.23%) , up 4.2%.

The Nasdaq Composite (COMP 2,281, +58.74, +2.64%) was up 58.74 points, or 2.6%, at 2,281.07

The following are excerpts from Wed. morning's blog.

A read of Wednesday's Wall St. Journal, Financial Times, New York Times & USA Today 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 symbol and Tuesday's stock prices and related data.

Dow:The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Tuesday at 10,024.02 down 112.61 or 1.11% from Friday's close of 10,136.63. Of the 30 Dow Companies: 8 gained and 22 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Johnson & Johnson JNJ $58.76 +0.46 0.79% 19,461,414 NYSE and percentage-wise was Kraft KFT $28.9 +0.30 1.05% 13,013,103 and NYSE.

WSJ pC1 "Energy Stocks Drag on Market; Dow Industrials Decline 112.61" by Peter McKay says energy stocks suffered one of worst one day plunges since the Gulf of Mexico oil spill began, dragging the broader market lower.

WSJ pC12 "Alcoa, Cat Take Hits: H-P Slips" by Donna Yesalavich says energy firms led a decline in stocks Tues, as BP's mounting troubles, including US civil and criminal investigations announced late in the session, rattled investors already worried about a global economic slowdown and its potential impact on firms such as Alcoa and Caterpillar. Alcoa is charted under Bad News saying on a rock day for industrials, Alcoa led decliners. Energy firms were particularly weak with Chevron down 2.1% and Exxon Mobil declined 2%. Hewlett-Packard slipped 0.9% as it said it would spend $1 bil to automate data centers and make other changes in its IT services business.

NYT pB9 "Oil Spill Inquiry Chills Traders at the Close" by Christine Hauser says stocks in he US were dragged lower by he energy sector after the gov announced on Tues. hat it was opening investigations into the oil spill.

As of the open of the market Wednesday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of today's Wall St. Journal is 0.132319125 unchanged, the trailing P/E ratio is 14.57 up from Tuesday's 14.74 (year ago it was 43.93) the P/E estimate is 12.62 unchanged from Tuesday's 12.62 (year ago it was 23.66) and the current dividend yield is 2.76 up from Tuesday's 2.73 (it was 3.51 a year ago). The Dow's all-time high was 14,164.53 on Oct. 9, 2007. The 12 year low close for the Dow was on March 9, 2009 when it fell to 6,547.05.

Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,326.37 down 16.19 from Friday's closing numerator of 1,341.27. 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 decrease of 16.19 for Tuesday by the divisor (0.132319125) you get the decrease in Tuesday's Dow of 112.61. A $1 change in the price of any DJIA stock = a 7.56 change in the average.

The average closing price (the closing numerator divided by 30) of Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $44.21 down 0.50 from Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $44.71. The median closing price of Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $38.86 down 0.87 from Friday's median price of $39.73.

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) and sold at the close you would have lost $1,490.06 ($134,127 - $132,636.94).

Market Watch 6/1/10 Tues. 5:05 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks closed sharply lower Tuesday, with losses picking up late in the session as gains fueled by upbeat economic reports gave way to worries over European debt and BP's inability to deal the oil disaster in the Gulf of Mexico. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA 10,024, -112.61, -1.11%) fell 112.61 points, or 1.1%, to 10,024.02, after it rose up to 10,218 during the session. Shares of Alcoa Inc. (AA 11.19, -0.45, -3.87%) and J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. (JPM 38.54, -1.04, -2.63%) fronted the losses on the blue-chip average. The S&P 500 Index (SPX 1,071, -18.70, -1.72%) shed 18.70 points to 1,070.71, with energy stocks weighing the most among its 10 industry groups. BP PLC (BP 36.52, -6.43, -14.97%) was among the energy sector's notable laggards, down nearly 15%. Other companies involved in the disaster were also hit, including Halliburton Co. (HAL 21.15, -3.68, -14.82%) , also off 15%. Read more about companies making notable moves.
Consumer staples proved to be the best performing sector, with shares of Hershey Co. (HSY 48.00, +1.20, +2.56%) up 2.6% after the candy maker said it might slash as many as 600 jobs.
Also among the blue chips, AT&T Inc. (T 24.33, +0.03, +0.12%) ended up 0.1% after the telecom giant said it would sell part of its Japanese operations for $100 million.
Crude futures slid $1.39, or 1.9%, to end at $72.58 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.The Nasdaq Composite Index (COMP 2,222, -34.71, -1.54%) slumped 34.71 points to 2,222.33. For every stock on the advance, almost four fell on the New York Stock Exchange, where more than 1.4 million shares traded. Composite volume topped 5.4 billion.
The major averages had all opened with losses after Europe's common currency dropped to a four-year low (CUR_EURUSD 1.2222, -0.0082, -0.6664%).The early stock slide continued a May trend, as a slowdown in manufacturing in China compounded worries about Europe's ability to curb its debt.The U.S. Commerce Department reported construction spending rose 2.7% in April, the largest rise in almost a decade. That better-than-expected economic report came along with the Institute for Supply Management's manufacturing index, which declined to 59.7 in May from 60.4 in April. Its findings also exceeded expectations. The market's reaction to U.S. economic reports marked a change from its fixation on concerns overseas and the impact on currencies, specifically the euro and the U.S. dollar, with the former hitting a new four-year low against the latter ahead of Wall Street's open.
