50. L was wrong in my fore
cast year ago as to the Dow
Jones averages. Although many
stocks sell lower today than a
year ago, the Dow-Jones averag-

run the risk and forecast that
they will sch lower sometime in
1853 than they do today.

market for 1858 was correct I
am inclined now to reverse that
forecast in the case of long-term

selling for today.

high-grade, cumulative, non-call-
able first preferred stocks will
sell higher sometime during 1859
than they do today.
36. l repeat what I said last
year regarding cheap" stocks ::
The large fortunes made in the
stock market have come from
buying non-dividend-paying COM
mon stocks at $500 a share or
under. These will be the first to
reach a buying level" If you
are to buy these low-priced COM
mon stocks, you should seek COM
panleS without too much prior
debt or cumulative preferred
stock outstanding. They are the
best common stocks for capital
gains"
81. Convertible bonds should
hold up fairly well during 1859.
3S. The best investment policy
for 1859 is for one now to have
a good bank account so funds will
be available to buy bargains
when a sufficient break comes
in stocks, bonds, real estate, and
commodities.

such legislation over the presi-

his report to Truman.
4. Our national budget will
show a heavy deficit in 1859.
This and other factors should
