As have frequently predicted, the mar
ket is a sale on all rallies. Prices are
800 high. and are seeking lower level.
Everybody was looking for a favorable
bank statement. in view of the heavy
liquidation during the past week The
statement was not as good as expected,
but even had it been up 10 the highest
expectations il would take more than
this to re-establish confidence. Easier
money conditions come too late The
buying power Of people, large and small
investors, has been crippled too much to
expect permanent improvement Only
one thing can bring about a rally al
prescnt-the covering of shorts, With
these eliminated the market viii be in a
position 10 sag again The underlying
conditions are still bad. For months re-
ports from commission houses have been
that their clients have been picking up
stocks which the large mOneyed interests
have been. and are. selling. When this
condition reveTses, the market viii have
turned the corner, and not before.
