http://www.dowjonesmonitor.com/

Post No. 1,918 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 as of 11/2/12 and recent Dow 30 components' SEC filings as of 11/2/12.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Monday at 12,967.37down 42.31 or 0.33% from Friday's close of 13,009.68. Of the Dow components 7 gained and 23 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Boeing up 53 cents and percentage-wise was Hewlett-Packard up 2.41%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was American Express down 82 cents and percentage-wise was Coke down 1.5 %.

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 14.45 up from Saturday's trailing P/E ratio of 14.26 (year ago it was 12.15); Monday's P/E estimate is 12.10 unchanged from Saturday's P/E estimate of 11.99 (year ago it was 11.55) and Monday's dividend yield is 2.67 unchanged from Saturday's dividend yield of 2.70 (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.

Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,688.56 down 5.51 from Friday's closing numerator of 1,694.07. 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 dencrease 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 Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $56.29 down 18 cents from Friday's average of $56.47. The median closing price of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $51.28 (DIS/UNH) down 11 cents from Friday's median closing price of $51.39. The lowest volume was Travelers and the highest volume again was Bank of America.

If Monday 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 $551 ($169,407- $168,856).

The stock market closed at 1 p.m. on Friday, earlier than usual, after trading was shut on Thursday for the Thanksgiving holiday.“The August effect is in play in that a lot of players are out of town on the shortened day, so I wouldn’t read too much into today’s action,” said Marty Leclerc, principal at Barrack Yard Advisors.

Early indications pointed to momentum for U.S. retailers as they head into the all-important holiday season. Shares of Wal-Mart Stores Inc. gained 1.9% and those of Target Corp. rose 1.2%.
