Developments of the Week
and Their Bearing on
the Outlook
The stock market struggled in vain
i last week to escape from the influence
of the present. Current developments
; proved the nemesis of those in quest
of higher quotations. The past was
i no hindrance, and the future was con
i aidered a helpful factor. But the events
ef the moment dominated the course
j of industrial stocks at the markets
! place.
Those optimista who ventured the
i view that security quotations had
| touched the bottom for the year were
? not completely taken by surprise by
| the convergence of a series of basic
i reductions of commodity prices. All
] but the delightfully ignorant had
j reason to believe that the wave of re
! adjustment in industry had not yet
| spent itself. The movement toward
i what ia commonly called normal in
i industry has been long foreseen and
I is now going on at a rapid pace. The
! Wall Street bulls, capitalizing the past,
j assert that what is now happening in
the mills, in the wholesale districts,
| and even in the retail stores, has been
| discounted In the downward trend of
stocks for nearly a year. They argue
that the barometric stock market looks
ahead and adjusts itself to new con?
ditions long before they materialize.
Going one step further, they suggest
that the barometric stock market looks
to discount the improvement in in?
dustry that they foresee in the future.
The foregoing logio is unshakable,
provided the premises are correct.
However, It will be debatable whether
the recession in industry has been dis?
counted fully until it is known pre?
cisely how far the let-down in business
will proceed. Xfc present even the
best informed men are cautious in
making predictions about their own
particular industry, and this uncer?
tainty, aggravated by the spectacle of
important reduction? in commodity
prices, caused some further liquidation
! of industrial stocks last week. Opinion
! around the marketplace, which had
been greasy cheered by the recovery
from the low levels of August, became
more divided as a result of the re?
actionary tendency of the industrial
stocks last week. Those who remained
bullish began to discriminate more and
placed most emphasis on the low-priced
rails, the oils and the tobacco shares,
because they thought they would be
less adversely affected by the changes
in industry.
Students of the situation would err
if they tried to read too much ecc
! nomlcs into the fluctuations that com
! prised last week's market. Technically,
! securities seemed ready for a reaction,
i after the upward spurt of the previous
I week. And no small part of the set
j back was caused by the short sales of
, professional operators, who took a tem?
porarily bearish position ?n the basis
; of the news comin*** out of the indus
! trial world. Internally the market
j has been helped by last week's fluctua
j tions.
Of course, the sooner American
business attains a price level that ap
; proaches stability the better it will be
for all factors. The cuts of recent
: days have been in part an expression
of the desire of wholesalers and manu?
facturers to hasten the movement to
a basis which will dissipate the exist
' ing uncertainty. If in lowering prices
business men are able to stimulate
' buying and break existing trade block?
ades the favorable aspect of what is
i happening will become apparent.
As is its custom, the speculative com?
munity leaps quickly {rom one pole of
pessimism to another of optimism al
; most overnight. A revolution in sen
i timent is often more a result than a
j cause of what is printed on the ever
! unwinding ticker tape. A few days
I ago, when bullishness was more fash
! ionable, traders greatly emphasized the
j prospect of conspicuously easier money
toward the first of the year. Many well
( informed bankers grant that there may
'? be a substantial improvement in the
' credit situation as the new year is
born. But the question arises, How
j far can security prices discount easier
[ money while money remains tight?
The statement of condition made
? public Saturday by the Federal Reserve
; Bank of New York -rave fresh con
! fidence to those observers who had
sensed an improvement in the credit
: situation. The local regional bank's
reserve position was the best it has
i been thug far in 1920. The gain was
made largely through the movement
of funds here from other districts, but
; was partly owing to a sharp reduction
of Treasury borrowings. Rediscounts
for member banks expanded during the
i week.
Bankers attribute the improvement
in credit conditions in the past fort?
night to two factors. One ie the bet?
ter movement of cars over the rail?
roads of the country, which has re
? suited in releasing huge amounts of
I banking credit tied up in goods that
, were sidetracked by the transporta?
tion congestion. The other factor is
the recession of business activity. Al
I though commercial borrowings con?
tinue huge, the high rates prevailing: ;
and the attitude of the financial ;
authorities of the country in dis- ?
couraging new financial and commer
eial commitments have combined in a |
measure to relieve the strain on banking
credit. Thin, of course, will be felt
with greater force later, and there are
many bankers who believe that toward
the end of the year and early in 1021
a period of substantially easier money
can be anticipated.
Wall Street has during the past
week had other thing? to think about
betides its own credit problems. It has
bae? able to cover its needs for funds
for speculative purposes at 7 per cent.
Little change has ?taken plac? in th?
time -money situation. Small offerings
continue to be made at 8 per cent,
with ? silghtly easier tendency In the
market It is interesting in this con?
nection to not? that borrowers, ap?
parently in the belief that rates will
be lower after tha turn of th? year,
are seeking leans for fixed periods
running only to the end of the year.
Beyond that they do not care to make
commitments.
The investor fared better than the
speculator for the most part during the
last week. The outstanding develop?
ment of the period was not the check
in the recovery of stocks, but rather
the widening of interest in bonds. Pur?
chasers appeared in the market in quest
of bonds varying from the safest to
those most fraught with elements of
risk. The list of investment securities
traded in last week was by far the larg?
est of the year.
Liberty bonds were the conspicuous
leaders in the movement of fixed ma?
turity obligations to higher quotations.
On the average, the government issues
gained more than 3 per cent in market
value during the week. As a result,
more than half of the losses incurred
in the spring decline have now been
effaced. Despite the striking expansion
of activity in these securities, dealers
assert that trading would be on a still
more extensive scale, if the floating
supply were not so limited.
According to The Tribune averages
for twenty-five bonds, the week's gain
carried them from 76.88 to 77.40. Rail
bonds climbed from 74.18 to 74.67; in?
dustrials from 83.38 to 83.88, and public
utilities from 69.15 to 69.90.
Dealers in sterling exchange contend
that the market ought to become much
more stable once it becomes definitely
known that the French government has
completed selling sterling in connection
with taking care of its half of the
Anglo-French maturity next month.
Sterling has not be<an nearly so erratic
during the last week, even though it
has not shown any pronounced recuper?
ative powers. Pressure against the
Scandinavian exchanges has been one
of the outstanding features.
Professor Casel's plea, which ap?
pears in another column, for the sur?
vival of the 50 cent dollar seems
slightly archaic, in view of the known
policy of American banks, under the
direction of the Federal Reserve Board,
to squeeze, some of the water of in?
flation out of the nation's credit and
currency. The Stockholm scholar sees
the problem solely from the European
viewpoint, and that is why his views
deserve attention. He envisages the
attempt of the more solvent European
countries to rescue their exchanges
from the sloughs of depreciation, and,
recognizing that the dollar is the most
reliable international yardstick at the
moment, he argues that it will handi?
cap other countries if the unit of
measurement?the dollar?is itself
changed. Whatever merit there is in
this contention of the Scandavlan
economist seems to "be outweighed by
the fact that it will be best for the
whole world for America to build its
edifice of reconstruction on rocks of
granite, instead of on the shifting
sands of inflation. Moreover, the pro?
fessor's suggestion that it would be
wise "to prevent gold from rising again
in value" entails freezing existing un?
satisfactory ratios between gold and
goods produced into permanent world
conditions. It seems to be merely an?
other way of expressing the hope that
the tides of economic consequences
can be effectually stopped by the flats
of governments.
Despite the elements of uncertainty
in the industrial outlook, there is a
bright side to the picture. In its
monthly business review, the Syracuse
Trust Company emphasizes the cheer?
ful .aspect. "Betterment of railroad
traffic conditions," it says, "is by no
means the only favorable development
of the past month. Of equal or great?
er importance is the fact that there
has been a good deal less labor unrest
and a good deal more efficiency on the
part of the workers. This was only
to be expected in the circumstances.
It invariably happens that when the
competition for jobs is keener than the
competition for men, efficiency in?
creases because no one i? sure of hold?
ing his job and every ono works harder
to keep on the pay roll.
"Whatever the cause, the fact that
the output per man per hour is gain?
ing promises to afford a real solution
for the high cost of living problem.
Labor, in its efforts to get higher
wages for less work, had overlooked
the fact that it cannot consume what it :
does not produce, and if, as seems to
be the case, it is now in a mood to work
hard for its money, there should be
a substantial increase in production
and a sharp fall in unit labor costs."
