Some people believe that the insiders FED
out stocks this morning 20 the public just
enough 20 prevent big bulge. but not
fast enough % cause a slump and give the
publics inciuieut enthusiasm a chill This
view is based on the theory that the in
sidcrs wish a bull market but not a run
away market that would soon exhaust it
self Il is the cheerful view 10 take Of
the situation The other opinion heard in
the street was that tho professional spec
uIat0rs are unloading as fast as possible
and that a slump is likely 90 result i'm
mediately. These people say that the
shorts have now covered largely if not
wholly and that there Is little further in
centivc for the advancement Of prices by
the traders" who. for the purposes Of
this view are supposed To- have made the
recent little boom The better argument
seems To- be that of the bulls II cannot
be- doubted that the important interests
have been putting up prices The traders"
have had little 10 do with the movement
except as shorts forced to cover And no
good reason why the important people
should put up prices has yet been advauc-
/ cd except that they hold the stocks and
wish to create a market IN which 20 sell
