BULLS READY
FOR MARKET
FIGHTING
Drive Of Stocks on Upside
Seen by Market Expert; Cau-
ton Is Advised at Present
BY THE SPECTATOR


It is beginning to look as
though the bulls got the old
band wagon out of "hock"
and we're starting a little
parade of their own. Not
even the bears begrudge them
this, especially those who
have covered. as it is some
time since stocks have done
anything on the upside.
The copper situation did
the trick, but don't get over
enthusiastic and jump in
blindly. Stocks aren't going
to do any running away on
the upside.

changed almost overnight. The
red metal is now IL cents a
pound and copper producers
have agreed to cut world pro-
duction 10000 tons a month.
Now if something were done
about the huge surplus stocks
above ground, there would be
basis for real bullishness. Some
thing of this sort is expected IN
well informed quarters. perhaps
placing them in escrow and thus
taking them out of the market.
AS it is now it remains to be
seen whether there will be any
real buying of copper at II cents
a pound. The big copper com.
panies can make some money at
this price but they will have TO
sell the red metal in real quantl-
[ ties to do this.
A strong if not advancing mar
ket will be a good thing at this
time when so many people are
blue, It would help sentiment a
lot. and do business some good
too. incidentally the Street has
its ears close to the ground con
templating bank merger. II this
goes through, and it is expected
to, it will be taken very bulilshIy.
The Oil
The oils are doing better, and
they look as though there ought
to be a turn in them in the next
few days. Statistically the pc
troleum situation is better than
that Of copper, and it is felt that
If the copper men were able to
get together the oil men ought
to be able to bring about produc-
ton. Refining is the big sore
spot. Character of the buying in
the oils indicates that something
in this direction is in the works,
although much of the buying in
the petroleum stocks around their
lows was because they were so
cheap on asset value.
The 1ow-priced oils certainly
have looked appealing for some
time at current prices of Sinclair,
Continental, Mexican Seaboard.
and American Republics, to name
a few one can't get burned very
much, and some of the cheap
oils are pretty fast steppers, too.
The Motors
Some pretty smart buying Is
coming into the motors. Automo-
bile plants are beginning to step
UP production on new models, and
there Is the motors show coming,
always good for a play if the
market is anywhere near right.
, The bad news is practically out.
The auto stocks seem to have dis
counted all the bad news, even
further dividend cuts, at current
prices. Nor should the accessory
stocks be overlooked, like Briggs,
Raybestos, Timken and Electric
Auto Lite. Then there are stocks
like, Commercial Solvents, which
depends on the automobile indus
try for a good deal of it's bust
ness, Finally there the steel com
panies, which already are begin
ming to feel the stimulus of in
creased motor demand. Two in
this class are Republic and Lud-
1un1.
