re are the elections today. The
illness and uncertainty prevail
ing in the stock market speak
eloquently, both of the political
uncertainty and of the paramount
Importance of the issues at stake.
Second, there is enough of doubt
ebout earnings and profits during
the coming year to warrant some
hesitation after such a consider
able rise as the market has had
since June. Many stocks are too
high, unless better earnings are
sure. 1t is well that the market
should pause until more light on
the outlook for business next
spring can be seen.
SHARP RISE
Third, the market had a sharp
rise following the European peace
news. It's technical position has
been weakened, and either a tech
nical reaction or a sideways move
ment and consolidation" have
been due.
Looked at from any or all of
these angles, the performance of
the market has not been bad. It
has been obvious that a good
many traders have been expecting
q reaction, and doubtless have
lightened their holdings as well as
remained on the side lines. But
the averages have merely moved
"irregularly sidewiSe"
OUTLOOK GOOD
Most of the evidence bearing on
the business outlook is reasuring.
In any event, the alternative uses
for money are not sufficiently at
tractive to induce much selling of
stocks.
I am still inclined to expect a
reaction within a few weeks which
will present a little better buying
opportunities.
Even if the New Deal is given a
worse setback than anticipated,
and there should be bulge after
the elections, this seems probable.
