Post No. 648 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 9/12/10 and an update of the Dow 30 component's SEC filings as of 9/12/10.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Monday at 10,753.62 up 46.2 or 0.44% from Friday's close of 10,607.85 Of the 30 Dow Companies: 29 gained and only Cisco CSCO $21.7499 -0.1126 0.52% 55,738,926 NASDAQ-GS declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Amex AXP $43.12 +1.75 4.23% 11,832,776 NYSE. The only and therefore biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Cisco.

As of the open of the market Monday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of today's Wall St. Journal is 0.132129493, the trailing P/E ratio is 14.31 up from Friday's 14.29 (year ago it was 15.84) the P/E estimate is 12.76 unchanged from Friday's 12.53 (year ago it was 15.71) and the current dividend yield is 2.66 unchanged from Friday's 2.66 (it was 2.87 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.

Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,420.87 up 19.27 from Friday's closing numerator of 1,401.60. 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 19.27 for Monday by the divisor (0.132129493) you get the increase in Monday's Dow of 145.77. 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 Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $47.36 up 0.64 from Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $46.72. The median closing price of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $42.16 (JPM/AXP) up 1.80 from Friday's Dow Jones median price of 40.36. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $87.41 +1.34 1.56% 3,665,878 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $13.74 +0.34 2.54% 130,594,562 NYSE.

If Monday 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 $1,920 ($142,080 - 140,160).

MarketWatch 9/20/10 Monday 4:34 pm by Kristina Peterson says U.S. stocks closed at their highest level in more than four months on Monday, one day ahead of a Federal Reserve meeting as encouraging financial and home builder earnings boosted confidence in the economic recovery. Bulls’ bid to extend a three-week winning streak was also helped after the group in charge of dating the starts and ends of economic downturns declared that the U.S. recession ended last summer. “It doesn’t mean growth is robust, but it is growth,” Paul Nolte, managing director at Dearborn Partners, said of Monday’s declaration by the National Bureau of Economic Research that the longest U.S. recession since World War II ended in June 2009. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA 10,754, +145.77, +1.37%) gained 145.77 points, or 1.4%, to end at 10,753.62, its highest close since May 13. All but one of the Dow’s 30 components rose, including International Business Machines Corp. (IBM 131.75, -0.04, -0.03%) , which was up 1.2% after the company said it would buy business-software firm Netezza Corp. (NZ 28.47, +0.20, +0.71%) for $1.7 billion. “Companies are flush with cash, and valuations are pretty cheap, so I would think M&A is only going to accelerate for the next six months,” said Maris Ogg, president at Tower Bridge Advisors. The S&P 500 (SPX 1,143, +17.12, +1.52%) rose 17.12 points, or 1.5%, to 1,142.71, led by a 2% jump in financials. The Nasdaq Composite Index (COMP 2,356, +40.22, +1.74%) advanced 40.22 points, or 1.7%, to 2,355.83. Nearly five stocks advanced for every one on the decline on the New York Stock Exchange, where 955 million shares traded. The NBER report propelled the S&P 500 past levels not breached since May, with investor sentiment already having been bolstered when home builder Lennar Corp. (LEN 15.14, +1.15, +8.22%) topped forecasts, reporting a better-than-expected quarterly profit and a drop in orders that proved less dreary than those experienced by others in its industry. “Buyers were able to take the S&P above 1,131 resistance. If the S&P closes above 1,131, rally hats will be on,” Elliot Spar, market strategist at Stifel, Nicolaus & Co., wrote in a note. The National Association of Home Builders reported that its monthly index of builder sentiment remained unchanged in September at an 18-month low. In its report, the NBER cautioned that its finding did not represent a forecast about the future, saying that if another downturn occurs it would represent a separate recession — a scenario viewed as unlikely by most economists — rather than the much-discussed “double dip.” Investor sentiment has turned “more positive because the economic news has been better than feared, so it’s more a sigh of relief,” Ogg said of Wall Street’s recent climb. Gold futures settled at their third consecutive record high on speculation about further stimulative U.S. government action ahead of Tuesday’s meeting of the Federal Reserve’s rate-setting committee. Worries over the possibility for more economic stimulus weighed on the dollar, sending it lower against both the euro and the yen. Demand for Treasurys was mixed, with the two-year note (UST2YR 0.46, -.00, -0.86%) flat, but the 10-year note /quotes/comstock/31*!ust10y (UST10Y 2.71, -0.04, -1.39%) up, pushing its yield down to 2.70%. Crude-oil prices rose above $76 a barrel.

****************************
The following are excerpts from Mon morning's Blog.

A read of Monday's Wall St. Journal, Financial Times, New York Times, USA Today, Atlanta Journal Constitution, Daily Report (Ga) & 9/20/10 issue of Barron's 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 Friday's stock prices and related data.

Dow:The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Friday at 10,572.73 up 46.2 or 0.44% from Thursday's close of 10,572.73. For the week the Dow is up 145.08 or 1.39% from last Friday's close of 10,462.77. For the year the Dow is up 2.05%. Of the 30 Dow Companies: 13 gained and 17 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Caterpillar CAT $73.18 +1.18 1.64% 11,302,247 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Hewlett-Packard HPQ $39.14 -1.21 3% 35,299,502 NYSE.

Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,401.60 up 1.72 from Thursday's closing numerator of 1,399.88. 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 1.72 for Friday by the divisor (0.132129493) you get the increase in Friday's Dow of 13. 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 Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $46.72 up 0.06 from Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $46.66. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $40.36 (JPM/AXP) down 0.60 from Thursday's Dow Jones median price of 40.96. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $86.07 +1.12 1.32% 5,932,850 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $13.4 -0.15 1.11% 132,138,754 NYSE.

If Friday 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 $172 ($140,160 - $139,988).

MarketWatch 9/17/10 Friday 5:05 pm by Kristina Peterson & Jonathan Cheng says U.S. stocks climbed narrowly into positive territory on Friday, as technology companies added to the week's modest gains. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA 10,608, +13.10, +0.12%) rose 13.02 points, or 0.12%, to 10,607.85 on Friday. The measure climbed for a third straight week, adding 1.4% in the past week. The Standard & Poor's 500-share index (SPX 1,126, +0.93, +0.08%) gained 0.93 point, or 0.08%, to 1,125.59. The S&P 500 closed up for a third consecutive week, rising 1.45%. But the technology-heavy Nasdaq Composite (COMP 2,316, +12.36, +0.54%) was the best performer, rising for eight straight days and outperforming both blue chips and the broader market. The Nasdaq gained 12.36, or 0.54%, to 2,315.61 on Friday, and climbed 3.26% over the week, as ebbing fears of a double-dip recession and encouraging earnings lifted technology stocks. Research In Motion Ltd. (RIMM 46.54, -0.18, -0.39%) (CA:RIM 47.78, +0.08, +0.17%) shares rose 0.5% after the BlackBerry maker posted a surge in its fiscal second-quarter profit and revenue, though it added fewer new subscribers than it had expected. Oracle Corp. (ORCL 27.47, -0.01, -0.04%) shares jumped 8.4% after the business-software maker said its fiscal first-quarter profit grew 20% as the company benefited from new revenue from its Sun Microsystems acquisition, as well as strong demand for software licenses. Texas Instruments (TXI 32.19, +0.01, +0.02%) shares climbed or 3%, to 25.72, after the chipmaker said it plans to buy back $7.5 billion worth of its shares and would raise its quarterly dividend by 8%.While the large-cap indexes have surged in September, much of that gain came early in the month. This week's gains were slim, as investors continued to buy safe-haven assets including Treasurys and gold. "We're still struggling on a daily basis on: are we up or down for the year?" noted Julius Ridgway, investment adviser at Medley & Brown. The Dow is currently up 1.72% for the year; the S&P 500 is up 0.94% since Dec. 31. "Before we break out to new highs, you're going to have to see a compelling reason and in the absence of a compelling reason, you'll see choppy markets," he said. Financials lagged Friday as concerns circulated over the health of the European banking system and global currency-exchange rate tensions. J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. /(JPM 40.08, +0.02, +0.05%) led financial stocks lower, falling 2.3% as the bank continued to struggle with the fallout from problems with its banking website. Bank of America (BAC 13.39, -0.01, -0.08%) shed 1.1%, while Morgan Stanley (MS 26.50, +0.03, +0.11%) lost 1.2%. In U.S. economic data, a Reuters/University of Michigan survey of consumer sentiment came in below economists’ expectations and declined from the previous month. The data came as a rude surprise to investors whose optimism had been slowly mounting this month. “The fact that sentiment and optimism were so high in the near term is probably a headwind until we get better economic data or sentiment backs off,” said Mike O’Rourke, chief market strategist at institutional broker BTIG. The U.S. dollar strengthened against both the euro and the yen. The euro (EURUSD 1.3045, -0.0031, -0.2371%) was trading recently at $1.304551, down from $1.3085 late Thursday in New York. Crude-oil prices declined.
