Post No. 3,063 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 recent Dow 30 components'  SEC filings.

A  read of the print editions of  Monday's Barron's & Investor's Business Daily; the combined Sat/Sunday issues of each of the Wall Street 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 18140.44 up 154.67 or 0.86% from Thursday's close of 17985.77. For the week the Dow was up 121.09 or 0.67% from last Friday's close of  18019.35.  For the year the Dow is up 1.78%. Of the Dow components 23  gained, McDonald's was unchanged   and 6   declined. The  biggest gainer dollar-wise  and percentage-wise was Boeing up $4.56 or 2.97%. The  biggest decliner dollar-wise   and percentage-wise was Johnson & Johnson down 44 cents or 0.44%.

WSJ pA1 "Market hit record after Greece gets reprieve"  by Gabriele Steinhauser, Matthew Dalton says the Dow & S&P reached new highs Friday as Athens got another 4 months of bailout aid but few concessions as Germans stood fast. 

Sat. NYT pB6 "Shares rise as Greek bailout is extended" by Reuters says the Dow & the S&P ended at record highs Friday after Greek and Eurozone finance ministers reached a deal to extend Greece's fin'l rescue by 4 months.

Sat. AJC pA8 "Markets get EU boost" by AP says a deal giving Greece more time to repay its debtgs swung the US stock market higher Friday and drove the Dow to a record high.

IBD pB9 "Stocks stage upside reversal; uptrend now looking stronger" by Paul Whitfield says Friday's action was up in higher vol while the current outlook is confirmed uptrend.  Home depot will earnings on Tuesday.

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 17.06 up  from Friday's   trailing P/E ratio of 16.93 (last year it was 15.84).  Monday's P/E estimate is 16.68 down from Friday's P/E estimate of 16.73 (year ago it was 14.50) and  Monday's dividend yield is 2.21 down from  Friday's dividend yield of 2.45  (last year it was 2.20). The Dow's all-time high was 18140.44 on February 20,  2015. 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 numerator is 2824.75 up 24.08  from  Thursday's   numerator of 2800.67.  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 $94.16 up 78 cents  from Thursday's  average closing price of $93.36.  The median closing price of  Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $87.20  (PG/XOM) down 13 cents from Thursday's median closing price of $87.33 (PG/XOM).  The lowest volume was Travelers  and the highest volume was GE.

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 made  $2,408  ($282,475 - $280,748).

2/20/15 Fri. 4:38 pm MarketWatch by Anora Mahmudova  & Sarah Sjolin says U.S. stocks rallied on Friday, sending the S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average to record levels on news that eurozone ministers agreed to a four-month extension of Greece’s bailout.The main indexes booked weekly gains for the third consecutive week. The antiausterity Greek government sought an extension to its loan agreement and on Friday after hours of meetings eurozone ministers reached an agreement. Athens has to submit a list of reform proposals by Monday. The S&P 500 SPX, +0.61%  climbed 12.85 points, or 0.6% to 2,110.30, with nine of its 10 main sectors finishing higher. The benchmark index gained 0.6% over the week. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, +0.86%  swung from a triple-digit loss to a triple-digit gain, adding 154.67 points, or 0.9%, to 18,140.44. The blue-chip index closed at a record high for the first time this year and booked a 0.7% gain over the week.The Nasdaq Composite COMP, +0.63%  rose for the eighth consecutive session, adding 31.27 points, or 0.6%, to 4,952 and gaining 1.3% over the week. The tech-heavy index outperformed other benchmarks so far this year, gaining 4.6%, compared with a gain of 2.5% for the S&P 500.The stock market had been trending higher, but news of an accord between Greece and its creditors helped fuel a rally.Jeffrey Saut, chief investment strategist at Raymond James, dismissed daily moves, but noted that there are probably many traders with short positions who wouldn't want to go into the weekend holding those positions in the wake of positive Greek news.John Manley, chief equity strategist at Wells Fargo Advantage Funds, pointed to the Greek reports as another example the market failed to fail, implying that equity values are growing lofty.“Investors are building up strong confidence, as we see how every dip in this market is bought. Bull markets end when investors get excited and stay excited. The trip to that excitement has begun, but it may last anywhere from 6 months or 18 months,” Manley said.Channing Smith, portfolio manager at Capital Advisors, taking a slightly longer view of the market, said it is hard to explain investor enthusiasm that had led to the rally so far this month.“Investor optimism has been fueled the relative strength of the U.S. economy, unbridled faith in central banks across the globe, which have broadly adopted easy-money policies amid deflation fears, and lack of alternatives, Smith said. Data: Friday’s sole piece of U.S. economic data showed that manufacturing activity picked up in February, with the Markit flash purchasing managers index climbing to 54.3, above forecasts by economists polled by MarketWatch. However, details were much weaker and indicated the U.S. economy has entered a slower growth phase.PMI readings out of the eurozone showed business activity in the currency union grew at a faster pace in February than expected, to reach a seven-month high.Earnings: Nordstrom Inc. JWN, +5.96%   turned in fourth-quarter earnings of $255 million, or $1.32 a share, missing Wall Street’s consensus estimate of $1.35 a share. Sales rose to $3.94 billion from $3.61 billion. Shares dropped 4.4%.
Intuit Inc. INTU, +6.16% shares jumped 6.2% after its chief financial officer said Thursday that the company hasn’t found any evidence that its systems were hacked into in connection with a number of fraudulent tax-return filings this month.Fannie Mae FNM, -0.07%  shares dropped 7.5% after the company offered a dour earnings outlook as it reported quarterly profits that sank by about 80%.
