Post No. 1,082 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 ranking of the Dow 30 components by market capitalization as of June 20, 2011 and Dow 30 components' SEC filings as of June 20, 2011.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Wednesday at 12,190.01 up 109.63 or 0.91% from Tuesday's close of 12,190.01. Of the 30 Dow components 2 gained and 28 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was American Express AXP $49.85 +0.30 0.61% 7,038,533 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Boeing BA $72.12 -1.86 2.51% 7,213,703 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 0.132129493. Wednesday's trailing P/E is 13.87 up from yesterday's trailing P/E of 13.74 (year ago it was 14.97); today's P/E estimate is 12.15 unchanged from yesterday's P/E estimate of 12.15 (year ago it was 12.90), and today's dividend yield is 2.46 down unchanged from Tuesday's dividend yield of 2.48 (last year it was 2.69). 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 1,600.43 down 10.23 from Tuesday's closing numerator of 1,610.66. 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 for today by the divisor (0.132129493) you get the decrease in today's Dow. A $1 change in the price of any DJIA stock = a 7.57 change in the average.

The average closing price (the closing numerator divided by 30) of today's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $53.35 down 0.34 from yesterday's average closing price of $53.69. The median closing price of today's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $45.27 (AXP/JPM) up 0.04 from Tuesday's median closing price of $45.23. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $92.8 -0.63 0.67% 2,661,743 NYSE and the highest volume was again Bank of America BAC $10.79 -0.04 0.37% 102,011,279 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 lost $1,026 ($161,069 - 160,043).

MarketWatch Wednesday 6/22/11 4:11 pm by Laura Mandaro says US stocks ended with solid losses Wednesday after the Federal Reserve lowered its economic forecast and Chairman Ben Bernanke commented on the risks to the U.S. from a European debt default. After trading close to the flatline ahead of Bernanke's 2:15 p.m. news conference, the Dow Jones Industrial Average ended the session down 80.3 points, or 0.7%, to 12,109.67. The S&P 500 slid 8.4 points, or 0.7%, to 1,287.14. The Nasdaq Composite lost 18.07 points, or 0.7%, to 2,669.19. Bernanke said U.S. banks' direct exposure to Greece was small but noted a disorderly sovereign default would likely roil global financial markets. He also said it was unclear how much of the U.S. slowdown was temporary or permanent.

The following are excerpts from Wednesday morning's Blog:

A read of the print editions of Wednesday's Wall St. 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 symbol and Tuesday's stock prices and related data.

Dow Jones Industrial AverageThe Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Tuesday at 12,190.01 up 109.63 or 0.91% from Monday's close of 12,080.38. For the year the Dow is up 5.29%. Of the 30 Dow components 26 gained and 4 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Caterpillar CAT $101.39 +3.21 3.27% 9,578,920 and percentage-wise was Alcoa AA $15.37 +0.59 3.99% 18,290,351 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Boeing BA $73.98 -0.54 0.72% 5,436,311 NYSE.

WSJ pC5 "Stock gain for a 4th day" by Steven Russolillo says US stocks closed sharply higher notching a 4th straight day of gains, as investors bet Greece will take the appropriate actions toward averting a sovereign debt default. Economically sensitive sectors such as materials, tech & energy were among the biggest gainers. Consumer staples was the only sector trading in negative territory.

Fin Times p22 "Apple & Cisco break recent trend as they make healthy gains" by Telis Demos says US equities gained for the 4th session in a row, helped by manufacturing & tech groups, though conviction in the broader rally remained mixed. Caterpillar saw some of the strongest gains on the Dow adding 3.3%, its sharped 2 day rally for it since April. Alcoa added 4% finding support after closing below its 200 day average on Mon. Cisco jumped 2.4% though it is still down more than 20% so far in '11, leading a broad turn away from tech groups that are tied to consumers and business spending more.

NYT pB10 "Markets surge as fear of a Greek default eases" by Reuters says global stocks rallied & the euro rose on Tues on growing optimism that Greece wold be able to hold off a debt default ahead of a vote of confidence in the Greek gov.

USA Today p4B "Stocks rise as worries about Greek crisis subside a bit" by Bloomberg says stocks advanced Tues, sending the S&P inex higher for a 4th straight day, as concern about Greece's debt crisis eased.

Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,610.66 up 14.49 from Monday's closing numerator of 1,596.17. 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 for today by the divisor (0.132129493) you get the increase in today's Dow. A $1 change in the price of any DJIA stock = a 7.57 change in the average.

The average closing price (the closing numerator divided by 30) of today's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $53.69 up 0.48 from yesterday's average closing price of $53.21. The median closing price of today's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $45.23 (AXP/JPM) up 0.91 from Monday's median closing price of $44.64. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $93.43 +0.87 0.94% 2,412,459 NYSE and the highest volume was again Bank of America BAC $10. NYSE.

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 made $1,449 ($161,069 - $159,617).

MarketWatch Tuesday 6/21/11 4:40 pm by Wallace Witkowski says US stocks finished higher Tuesday, as investors took advantage of the past month’s pullback to buy shares in cyclical stocks on growing confidence that Greece’s government will avoid a sovereign-debt default. The Dow Jones Industrial Average advanced 109.63 points, or 0.9%, to close at 12,190.01, with Alcoa Inc. shares surging 4% and Caterpillar Inc.rising with a 3.3% gain for a 5.7% gain on the week. The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index gained 17.16 points, or 1.3%, to 1,295.52, for its best one-day gain since April 20, with the materials and consumer discretionary sectors leading the charge. Consumer staples was the only sector down on the day. The technology-heavy Nasdaq Composite rose 57.60 points, or 2.2%, to 2,687.26 for its largest one-day percent gain since Oct. 5. Investors are trading on the confidence that Greece will enact measures needed to stave off a default, according to Brad Sorensen, director of market and sector research at Charles Schwab. “It’s a short-term sigh of relief, maybe not warranted, but it’s an assurance there’s no imminent crisis,” Sorensen said. At 5 p.m. Eastern time, Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou and his government face a vote of confidence as they try to shore up support for economic reforms. The vote comes just days after a mass protest over new government cutbacks shook Greece’s political establishment. Read more about Greek confidence vote. Still, Greece is expected to get its next quarterly installment of bailout money as long as the country’s Parliament passes a contentious package of budget measures. European finance ministers also showed modest signs of progress toward a broader agreement for a bigger package of aid to Greece for coming years. Ken Tower, senior analyst at Quantitative Analysis Service, said Tuesday’s rally was the result of a lot of money on the sidelines and investors wanting to put it to work on what appears to be a bottoming process. “This is the beginning of the bottom,” Tower said. “The market will come up in a more sustainable rally. This is not a sustainable rally.” The analyst also attributed the rally to short covering and cautioned that there is still bad news out there that has yet to be digested by investors. On the New York Stock Exchange, nearly six stocks rose for each decliner as 851.1 million shares traded hands. On the Nasdaq, nearly four stocks rose for each decliner on volume of 518 million shares. The rally was unaffected by expected bad housing data. The National Association of Realtors said sales of existing single-family homes and condos fell 3.8% in May to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.81 million, in line with economists’ forecasts for a drop to 4.8 million. “Housing continues to be a prime problem in this country,” said Phil Dow, director of equity strategy at RBC Wealth Management. “The inventory is still high and foreclosures are high. We shouldn’t expect anything to change until we get a more stable employment situation.” Also, the Federal Reserve’s two-day policy setting meeting kicks off Tuesday, with the Fed’s policy statement and Chairman Ben Bernanke’s press conference slated for Wednesday. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner says Europe's lack of a clear and unified strategy in dealing with its economic crises is harming investor confidence. In corporate news, shares of Walgreen Co. slumped 4.2% after the largest U.S. drugstore chain said negotiations to renew its contract to be part of Express Scripts Inc. pharmacy- provider network were unsuccessful. The news came as Walgreen said its fiscal third-quarter earnings jumped 30% amid continued sales growth. Best Buy authorized a new $5 billion stock repurchase program and raised its quarterly dividend by 7%, prompting shares to rise 2.7%. Raytheon said it received a $1.7 billion contract to upgrade Saudi Arabia’s missile defense system. Shares rose 1.1%. Crude-oil futures for August rose 0.6% to settle at $94.7 a barrel, while gold futures for August rose 0.3% to settle at $1,546.40 an ounce. Meanwhile, the U.S. dollar was slightly lower against the euro and unchanged against the USD.
