TRADING AGAIN EXTRENET v
DULL IN LOCAL STOCKS
Monotcny Relieved by Spirited Rise in Philadelphia Noto,,
Bank Warrants to 100

The spirited rise of S24 in the Phila-
deiphia National Bank warrants to 164
supplied the only bright spot of the
otherwise monotonous. dull and feature
less local market. The urgency of the
demand disclosed surprisingly small
amount of the warrants for sale, indi-
eating that much of the issue which
had been overhanging the market was
cleaned up several days ago. This rep
resents net advance of $34 above the
initial price and SAG above the low price
touched last week, and is $40 above the
maximum price of the warrants of the
preceding capital increase in 1918.
Trading il the balance of the local
stocks was desultory and entirely with.
out feature of interest. Dealings con
tinued on the same limited scale and
what few price changes were recorded
were unimportant and without signifi :
cance. Most of the transactions were
IL small odd lots and only few of the
local shares had total turnover of
three figures.
Initial dealings were registered in the
preferred stock of the Penn Central
Light and Power Co. at 40. The price
subsequently was raised to 42h, but it
soon fell into the same rut of indiffcr-
ence as with other local shares. The
stock is being traded in when. as. and
if issued, pending the delivery of the
actual certificates.
