There are various features in the cur
rent situation which are effective in re-
straining speculative activity. Under
lying conditions, however. encourage the
expectation of higher prices for stocks
and bonds before the summer is over.
and in quarters where careful consider
alton is given to conditions governing
the actual value of securities the opin
ion is freely expressed that stocks
bought at the prevailing level and Oh
all declines will net their purchasers
substantial profits.
Speculative sentiment is bearish. how
ever. The so-called public shows no dis
position to enter the market. while
important financial interests are not In
clined to encourage bull movements at
the moment. The latter, nevertheless,
are accommodating securities on all recess
sions. Traders believe that 1t Will be
possible 10 bring about a lower quota
ton level in the course of the next few
weeks, and they are exerting every eff
fort to create unfavorable market ideas
among commission house holders Of
stock, and by their constant pressure
on values they have succeeded in weak
ening many accounts, while they doubt
less hope to be able to force enough
liquidation TO establish the market on
quotation level many points under the
existing range of values. The fact that
prices show declining tendency ought
not to discourage. we'll protected hold
ers, while it should attract investment
buying.
