All communications New York, giving full name and changes in the weather, and the un- certainty and suspense have been as great as ina play of mystery. Un- expected advances and declines have kept investors and speculators won- dering, and the course of prices has often baffled experienced forecasters. One week nearly everything on the list has seemed to be rushing down- ward, but the next week soaring toward the blue sky. Conservative financiers have been confused by the many erratic movements. Occasionally, everybody has been at sea regarding the market's trend. Spectacular fluctyations in certain issues have not indicated the general tendency truly, for they have repre- sented special influences or pool manipulations. They have given no line on the long-pull situation, which is what the conservative buyer most desires to know. The frequency of the fluctuations for a time lessened public participation in the dealings. But fundamental conditions have not changed for the worse. The undertone has been too strong to per- mit the market to collapse. Again and again values have regained the levels from which they have been reduced. The constructive forces have asserted themselves with vigor, and the average of quotations has again reached the high mark. How much longer the bullish fac- tors will persist, and how far upward prices will eventually go are, of course, beyond human foresight. But there appears to be sure progress in this country’s prosperity. Busi- ness is growing like a tree, quietly but steadily and irresistibly. For the immediate future there may be basis for some measure of doubt and hesitation. But this cannot last long. The country is going ahead to greater things that will shame the pessimism of the present. The good chances in the securities market have not passed away. New issues are coming to the front offering sound investment opportunities. Watchful investors find bargains even now. 26 a —$_____—__!
