 Technically the stock market has been improved by this weeks reac- ton. At a lower range of values fresh buying will take place. Wide activity in both bonds and stocks shows the AGalEAy character or Ga6 market. There has been a better investment market aimee January began and con- siderable quan4ities of hfgh grade stocks and bonds have been perma-- nently withdrawn frcm the market for investment purposes, The par- ttcuiar weakness of steel Of counee aided the general decline. Railroad earnings have shown occasional un- satisfactogy gross results, but this is due to the fact that, as in the steel industry, the last three months of 1913 iness improves better gross earnings should follow. One controlling fact must not be forgotten that cheaI money whic his now assured for months to come, will prove a. most powerful support to the market How far this will be onset by uncertain ties such as referred to above: or by a rush of new securities remains to be seen. Thus far this month new dotations have fallen below expSctas- fions Nevertheless there are suffi- cient conflicting influences at work to keep the MakAst more active and ir- regular than for a long time past. Fas- vorasbIe conditions preddzndnate. but those who bought at the low level have been naturally taking profits and may not repurchaSs until a still further concession in prices. At auy rate the market has q confident bot- tom and will present very. favorabie opportunities for quick trading be- sides permanent good investments.
