A Month of Promise by Theodore Williams 8 THE first month of the new A year slipped away without any upheaval in the industrial and financial world, general confi- dence in the possibilities of 1926 in- creased. Many who had admitted that 1926 would have to play second to 1925 began to revise their judg- ment. The volume of trade is steadily expanding. Prospects for steel, railroads, agriculture and build- ing are bright, and several automo- bile magnates predict that this will be a better year for their companies than was the last. The stock market’s course in January also challenged those who forecast the speedy return of the bears to power. There were smart recessions, but these proved only temporary setbacks. No fluctuations in prices could conceal the strong undertone of the market. Values tended not only to come back, but also in some instances to make new maximums. However, those who buy for in- vestment with an eye to increment of value, and the speculators who de- sire a nimble turnover, should not at this time look for extraordinary gains. They should content them- selves with fair profits when they can take them.
