Post No. 1,243 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 and Dow 30 components' SEC filings in each case as of September 23, 2011.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Friday at 10,913.38 down 240.6 or 2.6% from Thursday's close of 11153.98. For the week the Dow is up 141.9 points or 1.32% from last Friday's close of 10,771.48. Of the 30 Dow components only Merck gained and 29 declined. The only and therefore biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Merck MRK $32.7 +0.04 0.12% 24,098,271NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise IBM $174.87 -4.30 2.4% 7,752,800 NYSE and percentage-wise was Hewlett-Packard HPQ $22.45 -1.33 5.59% 39,539,686 NYSE.

As of the open of the market Friday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of today's Wall St. Journal is 0.132129493.

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.

Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,441.97 down 31.79 from Thursday's closing numerator of 1,473.76. This is the sum of all 30 closing prices.

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 Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $48.07 down $1.06 from Thursday's average closing price of $49.13.

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 lost $3,179 ($145,486 - $144,197).

The following are excerpts from Friday morning's Blog.

A read of the print editions of Friday's The Wall St. Journal, Financial Times, 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 Thursday's stock prices and related data.

Dow Jones Industrial AverageThe Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Thursday at 11,153.98 up 143.08 or 1.3% from Wednesday's close of 11,010.90. For the year the Dow is down 3.66%. Of the 30 Dow components 28 gained and 2 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Chevron CVX $94.1 +2.36 2.57% 9,274,596 NYSE and percentage-wise was Travelers TRV $49.68 +1.51 3.13% 3,811,415 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Microsoft MSFT $25.45 -0.125 0.49% 62,237,136 NASDAQ-GS.

WSJ pC5 "Dow finishes up after a wild ride" by Brenan Conway says US blue chips finished higher Thurs but the tech sector slid as stronger US economic data struck a contrast with a leading chip maker's forecast cut. Fin'l stocks were stronger after Germany's vote to expand the euro zone's bailout fund helped ease investor jitters over the sovereign debt crisis. Bank of America rose 19 cents & JPMorgan rose 92 cents. Netflix slid on news that Microsoft intends to offer online pay tv service from Comcast & Verizon through Xbox Live. HP added 59 cents on news it is hiring Goldman Sachs to defend against activist investors who could push for change. Hewlett-Packard is charted under Good News.

Fin Times p24 "Fin'ls lead way in flight to safety on volatile day for equities" by Ajay Makan says a flight to the safety of big name stocks seemed to be the only clear trend on a volatile day which say strong divergence between the different US indicies.

NYT pB6 "Accounting investigation & German Euro vote leave shares mixed" by Reutes says stocks were mostly higher in a volatile session on Thurs as stronger than expected economic data & German approval of a strengthened euro zone crisis fund relieved 2 of the worst fears hanging over the market.

USA Today p6B "Economic reports help Dow, S&P gain; Nasdaq closes lower" by Bloomberg says stocks closed higher Thurs rebounding from a 1% decline in the S&P as lower than estimated claims for unemployment benefits helped offset losses by consumer & tech shares.

Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,473.76 up 18.90 from Wednesday's closing numerator of 1,454.86. 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 Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $49.13 up $0.63 from Wednesday's average closing price of $48.50. The median closing price of Thursday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $40.07 (AXP/HD) up 0.03 from Wednesday's median closing price of $40.04. The lowest volume was Travelers TRV $49.68 +1.51 3.13% 3,811,415 NYSE and the highest volume again was Bank of America BAC $6.305 +0.145 2.35% 202,470,670 NYSE.

If Thursday 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 $1,890 ($145,486 - $147,376).

MarketWatch Thursday 9/29/11 4:13 pm by Laura Mandaro says U.S. stocks closed a roller-coaster trading session Thursday with gains for two of three indexes, led by blue-chips. After rising as much as 260 points and falling 45 points, the Dow Jones Industrial Average ended up 143.08 points, or 1.3%, at 11,153.98, led by Travelers Cos. TRV +3.16% , Bank of America Corp. BAC +0.47% and J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. JPM +0.03% . The S&P 500 SPX +0.81% ended up 9.34 points, or 0.8%, to 1,160.4. The Nasdaq Composite COMP -0.43% fell 10.82 points, or 0.4%, to 2,480.76. "High volatility in a relative tight trading range tells you the market is uncertain about the economic outlook over the next 12 months. All we're seeing is within a day, what we've seen many times day to day," said Rod Smyth, chief investment strategist at Riverfront Investment Group.
