Post No. 1,058 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 May 23, 2011 and Dow 30 components' SEC filings as of May 24, 2011.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Wednesday at 12,048.94 down 21.87 or 0.18% from Tuesday's close of 12,070.18. Of the 30 Dow components 12 gained and 18 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Exxon XOM $80.76 +0.76 0.95% 23,479,125 NYSE and percentage-wise was Verizon VZ $35.9 +0.52 1.47% 19,282,446 Dual Listed. The biggest decliner dollar-wise NYSE and percentage-wise was Caterpillar CAT $98.04 -1.84 1.84% 9,716,452 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 13.73 down from Tuesday's trailing P/E of 13.82 (year ago it was 14.45); today's P/E estimate is 12.40 unchanged from yesterday's P/E estimate of 12.40 (year ago it was 12.36), and the most recent dividend yield is 2.47 up from yesteray's dividend yield of 2.46 (last year it was 2.79). 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 1,592.01 down 2.82 from Tuesday's closing numerator of 1,594.83. 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 Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $53.07 down $0.09 from Tuesday's average closing price of $53.16. The median closing price of Wednesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $44.25 (AXP/JPM) down 0.56 from Tuesday's median closing price of $44.81. The lowest volume was Travelers TRV $60.69 -0.54 0.88% 3,021,774 NYSE and the highest volume was again Bank of America BAC $10.54 -0.11 1.03% 157,470,239 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 $282 ($159,483 - $159,201).

MarketWatch Wednesday 6/8/11 4:12 pm by Laura Mandaro says US stocks on Wednesday fell for a sixth straight session, marking the longest losing streak for the S&P 500 since February 2009, as investors culled positions in stocks most leveraged to economic growth, including resources and technology. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 21.87 points, or 0.2%, to 12,048.94, led by more than 1% drops in Caterpillar, Inc. , Alcoa, Inc. and American Express Co. It was the Dow's longest losing stretch since July. The S&P 500 ended down 5.38 points, or 0.4%, to 1,279.56, led by drops in materials and financial sectors. The Nasdaq Composite fell 26.18 points, or 1%, to 2,675.38.

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

A read of the print editions of Wednesday's Wall Street Journal, Financial Times, New York Times, Investor's Business Daily, 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 Tueday's stock prices and related data.

Dow Jones Industrial Average: The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Tuesday at 12,070.18 down 19.15 or 0.16% from Monday's close of 12,089.96. For the year the Dow is up 4.26%. Of the 30 Dow components 15 gained, Pfizer was unchanged and 14 declined. The biggest gainers dollar-wise was DuPont DD $50.29 +0.44 0.88% 6,029,027 NYSE and McDonald's MCD $81.14 +0.44 0.55% 7,141,240 NYSE and percentage-wise was Intel INTC $22.06 +0.231 1.06% 59,636,865 NASDAQ-GS. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was IBM $163.69 -1.06 0.64% 4,094,198 NYSE and percentage-wise was Bank of America BAC $10.Bank of America BAC $10.65 -0.18 1.66% 158,082,018 NYSE.

WSJ pC6 "Bernanke's talk kills stock rally" by Steven Russolillo says a gloomy economic assessment from Fed Res Chairman Bernanke erased an earlier stock rally, sending major indexes in the final minutes of Tuesday's session to their 5th consecutive drop. Pfizer was charted under Good News as it is looking for $1 bil in yearly cost cuts & is targeting central management.

Inv. Bus. Daily pA1 "Stocks give up most gains, close mixed" by Vincent Mao says stocks tried to rebound Tues but gave up most of their gains in afternoon trading.

Fin Times p24 "Temple Inland paper chase fails to end S&P's5 day losing streak" by Michael Stothard says deal news lifted the paper & packaging sector on Wall St, but the wider markets saw their 5th day of losses after a late afternoon drop in the run up to a speech by Ben Bernanke, chairman of the Fed Res.

NYT pB9 "After Bernanke speech, 5th day of losses" by AP says stock indexes closed lower Tues, giving up earlier gains, after Bernanke said the economic recovery remained uneven and he offered no new steps to stimulate growth.

USA Today p4B "Stocks remain in downdraft; no new help from Fed in sight" by Bloomberg says US stocks fell for a 5th session Tues, the longest slump for the S&P in almost a year as Bernanke said the recovery has been uneven and frustratingly slow. Cisco lost 48 cents, Bank of America dropped 18 cents and Hewlett-Packard eased 39 cents to lead losses in the Dow.

Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,594.83 down 2.61 from Monday's closing numerator of 1,597.44. 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 Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $53.16 down $0.09 from Monday's average closing price of $53.25. The median closing price of Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $44.81 (AXP/JPM) up 0.13 from Monday's median closing price of $44.68. The lowest volume was Travelers TRV $61.23 +0.17 0.28% 2,459,226 NYSE and the highest volume was again Bank of America BAC $10.65 -0.18 1.66% 158,082,018 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 lost $261816 ($ $159,744 - $159,483).

MarketWatch Tuesday 6/7/11 4:30 pm by Steven Russolillo says US stocks dropped for a fifth straight day as investors turned downbeat late in the session following comments from Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke. The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed down 19.15 points, or 0.2%, at 12,070.81. The blue-chip index earlier rose as much as 89 points. As the Fed confronts the end of its QE2 policy at a time of weakness, one central banker says no fresh support will be coming from the central bank. The Standard & Poor’s 500-stock index dropped 1.23 points, or 0.1%, to 1,284.94, led lower by the technology and telecom sectors. The technology-oriented Nasdaq Composite dropped 1 point to 2701. The late-day reversal came after Bernanke said the U.S. economy should pick back up in the second half of 2011 despite recent signs of weakness. He also added the recovery two years after the end of the recession remains “uneven,” with labor-market conditions troubled.
While he said “accommodative monetary policies are still needed,” Bernanke also gave no indication the Fed was planning to roll out a third special stimulus, or quantitative easing program. “The market is not buying what Bernanke is selling,” said Keith Bliss, senior vice president at Cuttone & Company, a brokerage on the New York Stock Exchange floor. “He’s not wowing the crowd.” Stocks had risen earlier as investors snapped up beaten-down stocks after the S&P 500 closed below 1,300 for the first time in two and a half months Monday, and a $3.4 billion hostile bid for Temple-Inland buoyed sentiment.
