The unwinding ticker tape recorded
rising security quotations last week
and sentiment south of Fulton Street
became conspicuously more cheerful.
AS stimulant to the emotions the mar
row paper ribbon that tells the story
of triumphs and annihilations at the
Stock Exchange has long been cifica-
cious. Its influence was demonstrated
again along broad lines in the last ten
days. Until week ago Thursday the
professional community in the financial
district seemed so uniformly blue that
those who habitually profit by pursuing
the paradoxical argued that the time
had come to buy shares.
Out of the very nature of speculation
itself the upturn began. The market
had got into what traders dub an over
sold condition. An unusually large
number of stocks were borrowed by
those who had sold what they did not
own in an effort to profit from 8 fur
Their slump in quotations. Only a few
minor constructive news developments
we're required to set afre the flame of
recovery. The bears soon were tumbling
ever one another in an effort to escape
from their position.
Despite 8 moderate setback on
Wednesday and Thursday of last week,
The trend of speculative and investment
securities was distinctly upward The
closing quotations on Friday before
Tie three-day market holiday were the
highest of the week in many instances.
At the end Of trading last week The

tive stocks was up to 63.42, compared
with 61'c2, the lowest level of the year.

OF the situation at the capital. An ex-

commendable, but the real cure for the
present situation will be an improve
ment In general business. In some
lines, notably textiles, the upturn has
come. In others, such as steel, it is
unlikely that trade will become less &C.

for an immediate betterment. But the
question of quickened activity in bust
ness generally lies not in the hands of
distant, faraway deities, as the fatalis-

folded hands for the last vestiges of
the storm to pass away seem to believe.
Better business will come as a result

During the three weeks Of falling
quotations which preceded the present
rally in the stock market the drift of
prices, which were under the domina-
ton Of professional SPECTATORS, was
unrelated to developments in the real
world outside. Signs Of Improvement
in business were ignored. A rebound
upward in the stock market therefore
scarcely eludes understanding. 1t would
be difficult to explain why there had
been no rally, if none occurred.
