Gillette Safety Razor was q favorite

EVERYMAN'S
INVESTMENTS
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.
Problem for the Stakeholder.


It is cardinal principle OF invest
ment that the investors list of hold
lngs should be more or less constant.
Iy supervised. The idea is that chang
Ing economic conditions as well as
the fiuctuating fortunes of individual
corporations make it necessary from
time to time to dispose of some Sc
Curities and to replace them by others.
Generally the assumption is that eX-
changes will be made only when ad-
terse developments are threatening.
If a corporations income is falling off,
the margin for dividends decreasing
and the outlook uncertain the sale OF
It's stock or bonds is Indicated.
What however. If exactly the OPP.
posite is happening? Suppose the
business is expanding, profits are
growing and the future is bright with
promise, what then? In the latter
case the probabilities are that the
prospect viii be reflected in higher
market price for the securities in
Volved. In that event the owner will
have a substantial profit in the diff
ference between the price he originally
paid and the valuation the market
now sets The temptation then is to
turn this profit into cash and buy
some other stock or bond at rela-
lively lower level hoping 10 repeat the
process.
More or less. that is the situation
facing many investors today. II they
have held the common stocks of sue
rcssful American corporations over
period Of years their capital has APP
preciated greatly. 1t is not always
easy to say whether or not stocks
should be sold under such conditions.
but the great principle to keep in
mind is that as long as part Of the
urofits are constantly reinVested in
the property the equity Of the com
mon shareholders steadily mounts.
Moreover, history shows that the
large fortunes have been made by
those who had the faith TO hold on,
whether the property was stocks or
real estate. l think that still holds
true.
America has not reached the limit
i'm the development Of her resources
and disregarding temporary setbacks
the leaders in the essential Industries
will continue to expand to the profit
Of their owners. ! doubt whether
those who hold common stocks in the
stronger corporations purely as an in
vostment act wisely by disposing Of
them at this time, even though the
market price does look very high.
