3/15/14 Sat JPMorgan and others Sued over Libor

http://www.dowjonesmonitor.com/

Post No. 2,601 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 a summary of Dow 30 components'  recent SEC filings.


A  read of the print editions of  Monday's Barron's and Investor's Business Daily; the combined Sat/Sun issues of each of the Wall St. Journal &  Financial Times; Saturday's   New York Times &  Atlanta Journal & Constitution 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 closing   stock prices and related data in alphabetical order.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average:The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Friday at 16065.67 down 43.22 or 0.27%    from Thursday's close of 16108.89. For the year the Dow is down 3.08%. For the week the Dow was down 387.05 or 2.35%  from last Friday's close of 16,452.72. Of the Dow components 10  gained and  20 declined.  The biggest gainer dollar-wise  and percentage-wise was Boeing up $1.22 or 1%.  The biggest decliner dollar-wise  was IBM down $1.69  and percentage-wise was UnitedHealth down 1.7%.


WSJ pB1 "Blue Chips fall 2.4% in week" by Dan Strumpf, Matt Jarzemsky says US satocks ended a down week with another loss as investors looked nervously at a weekend of geopolitical turmoil in Ukraine and awaited mroe clarity about the health of the domestic economy.

FT p11 "Wall Street" by Eric Platt says US equity markets trended higher despite a weakening of consumer confidence at the start of monthly.

IBD pB8 "Stocks fade in slow trade, but smaller caps rebound" by Paul Whitfield says stocks got a reprive Fri, trading quietly as the major indexes sauntered to minor losses as Friday's action was down in lower vol and the current outlook is uptrend under pressure.

Sat. NYT pB7 "Shares end lower ahead of Crimea Vote" & Sat. AJC pA10 "Crimea vote worries market" by AP says US stocks ended lower fri due to a critical vote this weekend over the future of Ukraine's Crimea peninsula.


As of the open of the market on Monday the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page B6 of Saturday's Wall St. Journal is 0.15571590501117. Monday's trailing P/E ratio is 15.79 down from Friday's trailing P/E ratio of 15.83      (last year it was 15.79).  Monday's P/E estimate is 14.52 up from  Friday's P/E estimate of 14.75   (year ago it was 12.97) and Monday's dividend yield is 2.21 down  from Friday's dividend yield of 2.22  (last year it was 2.45). The Dow's all-time high was 16,576.66 on December 31, 2013. 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 2501.68 down  6.73 from  Thursday's closing numerator of 2508.41.  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 change for today by the divisor (0.15571590501117) you get the change in today's Dow. A dollar increase or decrease in a Dow stock results in a $6.42 change in the Dow Index.


The average closing price (the closing numerator divided by 30) of  Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $83.39 down 22 cents   from Thursday's average closing price of $83.61. The median closing price of   Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $79.18 (PG/HD) up 18 cents   from Thursday's median closing price of $79.00    (HD/PG). The lowest volume was Travelers and the highest volume was Cisco.

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 $673  ($250,851 - $250,017).

3/14/14 Fri. 4:30   pm MarketWatch by Anora Mahmudova says Friday’s modest losses for U.S. stocks capped the worst week since late January for the S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average as worries over the looming vote in Crimea weighed on sentiment.The S&P 500 SPX -0.28%  ended the day 5.21 points, or 0.3%, lower at 1,841.13, finishing below a technical level of 1,850 for the second day in a row. The index recorded a 2% loss over the week. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA -0.27%  dropped 43.22 points, or 0.3%, to 16,065.67, falling for the fifth consecutive day. The blue-chip index is down 2.4% over the week.The Nasdaq Composite COMP -0.35%  shed 15.02 points, or 0.4%, to 4,245.40 and the 2.1% decline over the past week was the worst since April 2013.Jitters in the market were most pronounced in the implied volatility as measured by CBOE Vix index, dubbed Wall Street’s fear gauge. The index jumped 9.5% to 17.8. “Sentiment is all over the place because of the uncertainty from the outcome in Crimea over the weekend,” said Colin Cieszynski, senior market analyst at CMC Markets. “However, markets are using geopolitical uncertainty as an excuse to go lower as they are overly stretched and are due for a correction.” Investors shrugged off reports on wholesale prices and consumer sentiment. U.S. wholesale prices fell for the first time in three months, the Labor Department said Friday. Economists surveyed by MarketWatch had predicted a 0.2% increase. Consumer sentiment fell to the lowest reading since November. While global markets have been sensitive to the events in Ukraine, U.S. equities have showed resilience over the past week. Some strategists say a crisis in Crimea is already priced into the markets, while other contend that a vote favoring Russia may become a catalyst for selling that is overdue. 
Worries over China’s economy continued to simmer in the background as well. Bank of America-Merrill Lynch was among several investment banks that cut the outlook for growth there. It called for 7.3% growth this year, compared with a previous call of 8%. Société Générale said “something barely above 7% looks quite likely.” Asian markets had a tough session, as losses for Wall Street pushed investors into the Japanese yen USDJPY -0.48% . The Nikkei 225 index JP:NIK -3.30%  slid 3.3%, while the Hang Seng Index HK:HSI -.00%  dropped nearly 1%. European stocks dropped for the third straight session.
Among commodities, crude-oil prices CLJ4 +0.82%  rose, gold GCJ4 +0.77% rose and copper prices HGK4 +0.58%  recovered some lost ground, up 1%. Among individual stocks, Ulta Salon Cosmetics & Fragrance Inc. ULTA +0.71%  shares added 6.4% after reporting fourth-quarter earnings late Thursday that squeezed past Wall Street’s estimate.  Aéropostale Inc. ARO +1.03%  shares dropped 20% as the teen retailer late Thursday reported a wider-than-expected adjusted loss in the fourth quarter. Shares of General Mills Inc. GIS +0.21%  fell 2.4% after the company released a fresh outlook for the third quarter, saying it sees third-quarter adjusted earnings of 61 cents to 62 cents a share.Shares of Liberty Media Corp. LMCA +0.56%  gained 7.2% after the company late Thursday said it would drop plans to buy the rest of Sirius XM Holdings Inc. SIRI +2.08% , of which it currently owns 53%. Liberty Media also said it would reclassify its common stock into two tracking stocks — one called Liberty Media Group and the other called Liberty Broadband Group — in a move that is expected to be completed in the third quarter.
