New York. July 15,-The dividend Of 2
per cent was deducted from the price OF
Reading to-day, but the stock promptly
recovered the deduction from its quota
tons.
Reading has a way OF doing this as
regular rule. It seems a little odd that
the stock with the dividend should be
regarded as no more valuable than the
stock without the dividend, but the stub
born fact has to DO recognized that
Reading sells as high to-day after the
dividend has been deducted as on the
last day when the dividend was included
in the price.
Il can hardly be that there is an in
herent quality in the stock that causes
1t 10 jump up 80 spontaneously just as
soon as it has been separated from It's
dividend. and IN spite OF the very logical
argument that two and two sometimes
make five, It may be we'll to question.
Some manipulation does not really &C
complish the result that bulls on the
stock ascribe 10 other forces.
The bull argument that the stock win
look cheap ex-dividend" is resorted 10 in
Reading at every dividend period. and
is made the most of-as Is every other
bull argument when general conditions
favor the bull side Of the market; and
every trader has long ago had his eyes
wide open to the fact that the Reading
insiders never lose an opportunity 70
turn favorable circumstance 10 account
While the covering of shorts was in
progress. the stock was KEEP; very active
and several OF the individual transactions
were quite large, but when, toward the
end of the first hour. It was found that
there we're no more shorts 10 be forced
IN, the activity decreased and the price
reacted from its high level.
Readings market action should. in the
long run. have a salutary effect on senti-
ment-it VIII probably induce ;he public
20 consider earnings and intrinsic value
rather than dividend yield IN comparing
prices.
London was a heavy buyer Of stocks at
the opening Of our market. but on the
sharp advance threw over a considerable
part Of its early purchases and made a
handsome profit by tho operation.
If the report OF the Interstate Com
merce Commission concerning Hartman
matters had been published before the
announcement was made Of the proceed
ings against the American Tobacco Com
pany. Wall street might not have re-
garded the latter as a very serious mat
ter Had il been made known months
ago. the financial community might have
been spared great deal OF anxiety.
The old argument Of the bears that the
government would not act unless It felt
assured that It had good grounds for
proceeding has received something not
unlike a Knockout blow in the past
