10/1/12 Mon am DVA Bank Rule Change will help Banks

http://www.dowjonesmonitor.com/

Post No. 1,832 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 recent ranking of the Dow 30 components by market capitalization and recent Dow 30 components' SEC filings.

A read of the print editions of Monday's Barron's, Investor's Business Daily, 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 a separate table of Dow component's symbol and Friday's stock prices and related data in alphabetical order.

Dow Jones Average:  The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Friday at 13,437.13 down 48.84 or 0.36% from Thursday's close of 13,485.97. For the week the Dow Jones lost 142.34 points or 1.05%. For the year the Dow is up 9.98%.  Of the Dow components 25 gained, GE was unchanged and 4 declined . The biggest gainer dollar-wise was IBM up $1.52 and percentage-wise was Cisco up 1.6 %. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was McDonald's down $1.53 cents and percentage-wise was Intel down 1.86%.

IBD pB6 "Stock market slides again to close out positive Q3" b y Paul Whitfield says Fri's stock session delivered the 4th down day of the week as the 3rd quarter drew to a close.  Friday's action was down in rising volume as the current outlook remains a confirmed uptrend.

Sat. WSJ pB5 "Stocks finish strong quarter with a flop" by Matt Jarzemsky says stocks ended their biggest monthly advance since June on a down note amid worries about Spain's credit rating & signs of more bumps in the economic recovery in the US.

As of the open of the market on Monday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of  Monday's Wall St. Journal is 0.130216081. Monday's trailing P/E ratio is 14.64 down from Saturday's trailing P/E ratio of 14.69 (year ago it was 12.17);  Monday's P/E estimate is 12.75 down from Saturday's P/E estimate of 12.95 (year ago it was 11.15) and Monday's dividend yield is 2.51 up from Saturday's dividend yield of 2.50 (last year it was 2.82). 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.

Frisday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,749.73 down 6.36 from Thursday's closing numerator of 1,756.09. 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 (0.130216081) you get the decrease in today's Dow. A dollar increase or decrease in a Dow stock results in a $7.68 change in the Dow Index.

The average closing price (the closing numerator divided by 30) of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $58.32 down 22 cents from Thursday's closing numerator of $58.54. The median closing price of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $53.85 (DIS/UNH) down 57 cents from Thursday's median closing price of $54.42 (DIS/UNH). The lowest volume was Travelers and the highest volume again was Bank of America.

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 or dividends) and sold at the close you would have lost $636 ($175,609 - $174,973).

MarketWatch.com Fri. 9/28/12 4:15 pm by Kate Gibson says US stocks fell Friday as an unexpected contraction in a gauge of business activity in the Midwest had Wall Street cutting still-sizeable third quarter and September gains. "We had a heck of a good quarter and month for stocks beyond what anyone thought," said Stuart Hoffman, chief economist at PNC Financial Services Group. "Now we're having a step backward as some of the QE3-inspired gains dissipate." The Dow Jones Industrial AverageDJIA-0.36%declined 48.84 points, or 0.4%, to 13,437.13, up 4.3% for the third quarter and 2.7% for the month. The S&P 500 SPX-0.45%declined 6.48 points, or 0.5%, to 1,440.67, up 5.8% for the quarter and 2.4% for September. The Nasdaq Composite COMP-0.65% lost 20.37 points, or 0.7%, to 3,116.23, leaving it up 6.2% for the quarter and 1.6% for September. September, historically a poor month for Wall Street, this year marked a fourth month of consecutive gains.
