Post No. 2,614 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 as of 3/19/14 and a summary of Dow 30 components' SEC filings as of 3/19/14.
A read of the print editions of Monday's Barron's & Investor's Business; the combined Saturday and Sunday issues of each of the Wall St. Journal & Financial Times; & Sunday's & 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 closed Friday at 16302.77 down 28.28 or 0.17% from Thursday's close of 16331.05. For the week the Dow was up 237.1 or 1.48% from last Friday's close of 16065.67. For the year the Dow is down 1.65%. Of the Dow components 14 gained and 16 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Johnson & Johnson up $1.81 or 1.92%. The biggest decliner dollar-wise and percentage-wise was Nike down $4.06 or 5.12%.
WSJ pB5 "S&P 500 rises 1.4% in week; biotech sector tumbles" by Dan Strumpf says Firday was a quadruple witching witht he simultaneous expiration of futures & options on indexes & individual stocks which typically leads to ramp up in volume in the final hour of trading. Stocks' early gains fri were erased largely by a selloff in biotech stocks.
FT p13 "Wall Street" by Eric Platt says Visa led the Dow after a federal appeals court reversed a lower court ruling that allowed banks to charge retailers as much as 21 cents to process debit card transactions.
NYT pB2 "Health care shares pull down indexes" & Sat. AJC pA10 "Health care news erases rally" by AP says stocks closed slightly lower fri erasing an early gain, after being dragged down by health care firms.
IbD pB8 "Stock indexes knife lower; medicals lead the bleeding" by Paul Whitfield says stocks battled to a dismal finish Fri as the indexes lost ground in fast trade as Friday's action was down in big volume due to quadruple witching day. the current outlook is uptrend under pressure.
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 16.03 down from Friday's trailing P/E ratio of 16.05 (last year it was 15.90). Monday's P/E estimate is 14.85 up from Friday's P/E estimate of 14.52 (year ago it was 12.90) and Monday's dividend yield is 2.18 up from Friday's dividend yield of 2.10 (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 2538.60 down 4.40 from Thursday's closing numerator of 2543. 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 $84.62 down 15 cents from Thursday's average closing price of $84.77. The median closing price of Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $79.68 (NKE/HD) up 24 cents from Thursday's median closing price of $79.68 (NKE/HD). The lowest volume was 3M 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 $440 ($254,300 - $253,860).
3/20/14 Thurs. 4:07 pm MarketWatch by Anora Mahmudova says U.S. stocks reversed early gains and finished Friday lower but still recorded modest weekly gains. The main indexes marched higher in the morning, with the S&P 500 hitting a new intraday record of 1,883.97, but gains dissipated by afternoon, as stocks were hit by gyrations due to the so-called quadruple witching day, or expiration of options.
The S&P 500
SPX
-0.29%
ended the day 5.61 points, or 0.3%, lower at 1,866.40. The benchmark
index recorded a weekly gain, rising 1.4% for the week.The Dow Jones
Industrial Average
DJIA
-0.17%
added 28.28 points, or 0.2%, to 16,302.77. The blue-chip index gained 1.5% over the past five trading days.
he Nasdaq Composite
COMP
-0.98%
finished the day 42.50 points, or 1%, lower at 4,276.79, with the biotech stocks hit the hardest on the index
. iShares Nasdaq Biotechnology ETF fell 4.7%. Friday’s losses dented the
tech-heavy index’s weekly gain to 0.7%.“Today’s action in the market
was mostly technical. Perhaps, investors
had second thoughts about the events in Russia. Typically, on the days
when options expire, gyrations can cause selloffs,” said Peter Cardillo,
chief market economist at Rockwell Global Capital.
Stocks had fallen Wednesday after Federal Reserve Chairwoman Janet
Yellen suggested the central bank could begin raising interest rates
about six months after it ends its bond-buying program. However, they
mostly recovered on Thursday on the back of upbeat manufacturing data
from the Philadelphia’s Federal Reserve.Minneapolis Fed President Narayana Kocherlakota, the sole dissenter on the FOMC, released a statement on Friday
in which he criticized the Fed’s new guidance, saying it “weakens the
credibility of FOMC’s commitment to target 2% inflation” and “fosters
policy uncertainty and thereby suppresses economic activity.”Other Fed
speakers on Friday included St. Louis Fed President James Bullard, as
well as former Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke.Fed Gov. Jeremy Stein is
scheduled to speak on ‘incorporating financial
stability considerations into a monetary policy framework’ at 7:20 p.m.
Eastern.
Among individual stocks, Unwired Planet

The company said it expects to earn between 43 cents and 47 cents per
share on revenue of $900 million to $925 million.Shares of Nike Inc.
NKE
-0.02%
were down 5.1% after the company late Thursday reported fiscal
third-quarter adjusted profit above analysts’ forecasts. Sales increased
13%, but the sneaker giant warned that a stronger dollar will remain a
drag on earnings.Symantec Corp.
SYMC

slid 13% after the security-software maker fired Chief Executive Steve
Bennett late Thursday and replaced him with board member Michael Brown.Darden Restaurants Inc.
DRI
+2.76%
rose 2.8% even as the firm said profit and sales fell compared with a year earlier. Darden is spinning off its Red Lobster chain.
In other financial markets, the dollar pulled back after rising on Thursday on
the back of Yellen’s dollar-supportive interest-rate comments. The
weaker greenback provided support for oil and metals, which moved
broadly higher. Asian markets closed
mostly in the black, and European markets followed them higher early on Friday.
