Heavy selling movement in the oil
group characterised the early dealings.
Philips broke to a new low on the
current decline at IS, Cosden at 297s
Pacific Oil at 46k, Marland at 3Ih
and Txo at Az. Pressure against the
oils unsettled the whole industrial
list and the general tone was heavy.
Further recessions took place among
the active oils, but Baldwin, American
Can and other speculative leaders de-
veloped a steadier tone.
