NEW YORK, Sept. 26.-The
stock market safely passed
through one major test Of
strength this week, but it faces
another more critical testing
period.
If it comes through that test
with flying colors, Wall Street
feels, then the worst of the bear
market is over.
TechnicianS call it a testing
of the lows. What it means is
that the market hit a new aver
age low for the year a week ago
last Monday. Then it moved
higher.
But at the end of last week
the market was headed toward
another low. However, the mar
ket's action this week halted
that doWn-trend and prices
pointed upward.
In fact, the market this week
advanced on balance for the
first time in seven weeks. The
display of strength and resist
ance to selling was regarded as
q successful test of the low of the
year
But one test doesn't satisfy
Wall Street. Before the stock
market really can try for a broad
recovery movement, it is felt. a
firm foundation must be built.
The manner in which profess
sionals and the public react
when and if the market starts
down again will tell the story.
The test is expected shortly.
There are plenty of traders in
Wall Street who believe that the
