SHOULD THE INVESTOR wAT<r
MARKET FLUCTUATIONSY
Ffty.APst Article.


SHOULD THE INVESTOR WATCH
MARKET rUCTUATI0NSF
There Is = great difference OF opin-
ion among investment advisers on
just how much attention the average
holder OF securities should pay to
market fluctuations in tho price Of
his bonds and stocks. On the one
hand there are some who say he
should pay no attention Whatever to
such fluctuations. provided he has
selected in the first place sound in
vestment. They say that these price
changes are brought about by traders
who make their profits and take their
losses by the ups and downs of secur-
tiles, and that these UPS and downs
have no relation whatever to real
value.
From the standpoint of those who
hold this view. the most desirable in
veatmsnt Is one which is not traded
In to any great extent, and SO does
not huctuate in price. On the other
hand. II Is claimed that every in
vestor ought to keep himself more or
less informed about the market for
his securities These authorities say
that a sharp drop in market price is a
warning to the investor that some
thing is wrong, and that he should
make inquiry At once IA to what the
trouble TO-. In tho same way, IL there
is an advance in the quotation, he
should take thought as to whether
or not he ought to sell and reinvest
In some other security. accepting his
profits.
Both these apparently CONFLICTING
views are correct In part Much de-
ponds upon the grade Of the security
In questfon. As = rule, market fue-
tnattons in gilt-sdge investments,
whether bonds or preferred stocks,
have no relation to value. They
move in sympathy with the cur

But when his interest lies in q bond
or stock In any degree speculative
and the degree OF speculation can be
roughly measured by the promised

vextor should watch the market or
