loving question.
isn't the bullish appearance
Of the market really going ON

ing trend Can't the volume OF

"A bear market ."
Answer: The fact seems 10 me
10 be that the market Is not and
has not been. in strong decln-
ing trend Probably the best pub
liShcd average Of the market is
the composite average of one hum
drcd stocks compiled by well
known newspaper. This average
has not penetrated the definite
lower limit of rising path which
~ entered about the first Of De-
.ccmber. 1913 four months ago
Furthermore. the average is SO
little below the peak OF July. 1913

might i'm "A bear market tempOrar-
ily run parallel 10 the movement
of prices. In such markets there
may be rallies. " and IN the
middle Of such temporary rise,
The volume is apt 10 pick up Blu
This is a temporary condition anc
