Post No. 1,415 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 January 1, 2012.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Tuesday at 12,462.47 up 69.78 or 0.56% from Monday's close of 12,392.69. . Of the 30 Dow components 22 gained and 7 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Caterpillar CAT $99.96 +2.86 2.95% 9,550,634 NYSE and percentage-wise was Bank of America BAC $6.63 +0.36 5.74% 354,292,048 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Chevron CVX $109.06 -0.43 0.39% 7,642,302 NYSE and percentage-wise was GE $18.72 -0.14 0.74% 59,345,419 NYSE and Cisco CSCO $18.83 -0.14 0.74% 45,488,277 NASDAQ-GS.

As of the open of the market Tuesday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of Tuesday's Wall St. Journal is 0.132129493. Tuesday's trailing P/E ratio is 13.40 up from Monday's trailing P/E ratio of 13.37 (year ago it was 14.84); today's P/E estimate is 11.92 unchanged from yesterday's P/E estimate of 11.92 (year ago it was 13.55), and Tuesday's dividend yield is 2.58 down from yesterday's dividend yield of 2.59 (last year it was 2.47). 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 1,646.66 up 9.22 from Monday's closing numerator of 1,637.44. 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 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 Tuesday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $54.89 up $0.31 from Monday's average closing price of $54.58.

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 $922 ($164,666 - $163,744).

MarketWatch Tuesday 1/10/12 4:56 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks on Tuesday climbed along with the euro as a weaker U.S. currency helped drive up the price of oil, other dollar-denominated commodities and resource stocks. The Dow Jones Industrial Average and S&P 500 Index closed at late July highs. “The main driver is a lower dollar. It still remains a euro-centric story, and the euro is rallying because things haven’t blown up over there, and now we’re unwinding that rush to safety that characterized the month of December,” said Paul Nolte, managing director at Dearborn Partners. After a 122-point jump earlier in the day, the Dow industrials DJIA +0.56% closed up 69.78 points, or 0.6%, at 12,462.47, its highest close since July 26. Bank of America Corp. BAC -0.30% led the gains that included 23 of its 30 components, rallying 5.7%. Dow component Alcoa Inc. AA -0.64% rose 0.2% a day after the aluminum producer reported a fourth-quarter loss but also projected growth in global demand for aluminum in 2012. Read the Tell blog on whether Alcoa results are a good bellwether for earnings season. “Alcoa’s earnings weren’t much to write home about,” added Nolte, who also questioned the wisdom of using the company’s bullish forecast as a gauge of what might be ahead, logic he likened to “using Iowa as a predictor for the presidential nominee — sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t.” “There may be fewer negative surprises since expectations have been lowered,” said Ed Yardeni, chief investment strategist at Yardeni Research Inc. Investors might want to look at how corporations performed year over year, rather than whether they managed to beat reduced expectations, according to Nolte. “If I expected you to get an F and you get a D, it still stinks,” the analyst said. The S&P 500 SPX +0.89% gained 11.38 points, or 0.9%, to 1,292.08, with financials and natural-resource companies faring best among its 10 industry groups. Extending gains into a fourth session, the Nasdaq Composite Index COMP +0.97% gained 25.94 points, or 1%, to 2,702.50. For every stock falling more than three gained on the New York Stock Exchange, where 840 million shares traded hands. The euro EURUSD -0.23% advanced against the dollar as comments from a ratings agency provided some relief over France’s rating. Oil and gold jumped in New York, with crude futures CL2G -0.52% rising 93 cents to close at $102.24 a barrel and gold futures GC2G +0.23% rising 1.5% to end at $1,631.50 an ounce.
Trade data from China’s government showed that nation’s import growth declining to a two-year low last month, raising expectations for monetary easing for the second-largest global economy. The data helped support oil futures, analysts said.
