Current Market Opinion
Newbcrgcr, Henderson & Loeb
The weeks operations failed to dis
close any significant change in the
market situation. All developments
show distinct drift toward improve
mcnt in both fundamental and basic
conditions. The outstanding feature has
been the phenomenal recovery in foreign
exchange which carries considerable
significance although the real motive is
still undisclosed. This coupled, how
ever. with the continued expanding in
vcStment demand and circumstantial
evidence of better money market con-
ditions reflects constant storing up of
constructive factors which sooner or
later must find reflection in market
sentiment. This much is certain, most
Of the old influences have lost their
significance and the grip of the reac.
t!onary party upon the market is broken
For the time being the market may be
regarded as having drifted into narrow
trading area and advantage should be
taken OF any recessions TO buy stocks,
as the trend of the market is upward.

last December. bond market prices
moved up rather sharply during the first
week or so of January. but suddenly
come to n halt with tendency toward
moderately lower levels.
There were numerous factors which
contributed toward bringing about such
n result, including the stiffness which
developed in money rates, following the
comparative case of few days when
call rates on the board dropped 20
per cent with loans being made on the
outside at substantially lower figure.
When the rate dropped, interior inst-
tutions Immediately withdrew them and
the call rate quickly snapped back to
the previously prevailing quotation of
per cent. Another factor which oper-
ated toward higher money rates for n
time was the aggressiveneSs displnyed
in the stock market. many pools becom-
ing active as soon as it became possible
to obtain money Mt the 6 per cent. or
lower rate, which was in evidence for n
few days.
Trade Revival Forecast
Rising prices in the stock market.
the recovery in the price of agricultural
staples, less stringency in the money
market and the slow resumption of
work in textile mills are accepted as
indications of a revival in business by
the writer of the weekly letter sent out
by the Mechanics and Metals Bank of
New York.
These signs forecast revival" the
letter continues. they do not mean
that it is actually here. Stock market
movements usually preccde actual in =
dustrial conditions by several months.
The decline in security values which
forcshadowcd the present depression
continued almost without interruption
throughout 1920. and actually began
in November, 1919. Money is not yet
definitely easier: and just as recent
high rates in the money market con =
tinucd for some months before affect
ing business, so lower rates. if they
come, are likely to be in effect for a
time before renewed borrowing and eX =
pansion are sufficiently encouraged.
The rise in the pound sterling in two
months from 1882 to $3.50. and the
recovery in exchange generally, should
provo decided aid to our export sales,
particularly as the decline in commodi =
~ price levels has been even greater in
this country in recent months than in
Europe. But neither Is this likely to
make itself felt immediately. The as

conditions, are probably to he OK.
planned, at least in part, by tho fact
that goods going forward represented
the filling of orders placed some time
previously.
/ 'Finally. the mills now rCsuming
operations are mainly in the lines which
were first to suffer by the present
slump. while IN trades which did not

GOSSIP OF
THE STREET

Although there was decidedly re.
dictionary tendency in the bond market
| as a whole during the last week, con-
siderable comment was heard over the
! success of such offerings as were made,
including the 10000, 200 of Belgian
Government per cent bonds and the
similar amount of bonds Of the Ameri =
can Agricultural Chemical Corporation.
both of these issues were quickly alb
sorbed. each being heavily ovcrsub-
scribed within a short time after the
subscription books were formally
opened.
I nder ordinary conditions this would

put there are many factors to be con.
Sldered in this connection at the mo-
ment. such as a slightly firmer tone in
the money market and the possibility of
further extensive offerings of securities
over period of the next few weeks.
Near the close of the week came the an
nOunccment thnt the Pennsylvania
railroad Co. was putting out new
bonds. while one of the large South
american countries is negotiating for
S25.OO0,00 or $50. 900. 900 of now
money with every indication of furthcr.
substantial offerings by some of the
European countries.
therefore. IL was pointed out. no
sack Is likely to be permitted to take
place in the market in the immediate
future because Of the unusually large
amount of new financing that is con :
templatcd. Attention is called to this
particular class of new financing be-
cause 1t involves such proportionatcly
large amounts. but there also is an
other factor in the situation which
/ should not be overlooked. namely, the
great aggregate of fresh money that un-
| Quostionably will be required by cor
/ norations. municipalities and states
throughout this country over period
of the next several months.
II will be recalled that during tho
| period of the war the states and cities
Of the country postponed great deal
of work which. under ordinary condi-
ttons. would have been done, such as
/ public improvements. etc., in keeping
with the demands Of tho times. and
