In the Stock Market

ißv Thomson & McKinnon t NEW YORK. June 17.—One of the few encouraging factors that come to our notice this morning is the unqualified assertion by one of our financial writers that certain banking interests are preparing to re-enter the stock market on the buying side. Unquestionably support from this source heretofore has not been aggressive. Making full allowance for the prospect of greatly diminished earnings we must bear in mind that our well managed companies in recent years have built up a strong capital struc* ture. Fortified with large surpluses they should bs and probably are, in a position to withstand a period of declining earnings. Yields are again liberal. With money at subnormal rates, we believe investment buying will finally prove to be the fundamental factor in checking the current decline. Once resistance points have been established in pivotal stocks we anticipate that a covering movement will bring about a reversal in the market trend.

Bv United Press __ _ „ , NEW YORK, June 17.—Rallying tendencies made some progress on the Stock Exchange in the first two hours of trading today following a sharp decline at the opening.

Trading today was the most active since the 8,000,000-share day on May 5. Sales in the first half hour were at the rate of 12,000,000 shares for a full day. Steel Leads Rally After the initial blocks of 4,000 to 18,000 shares were disposed at prices from fractions to three points, United States Steel led a substantial rally. This stock opened % point higher at 15814 and then moved upward above 161, taking the leading industrials and' utilities with it. The market behaved as many had expected. Traders knew of vast amounts of margin calls being sent out Monday and were prepared for a setback in heavy trading at the opening. Many placed buying orders and the initial unloading took place with buyers on hand for all offerings. Bonds Sell Off The rally which ensued was also expected. Ir was helped to some extent by investment buying by those who participated in the midmonth interest and dividend payments. Some short covering also took place, although investigations made recently belittled the extent of the short interest in the present market. Prices flashed from the floor around noon showed a majority of gains over the previous close in the principal issues. In the commodity markets, cotton and wheat came back substantially. Bonds, however, were tending lower on a firmer tone in call money and some selling by holders of stocks who needed funds for margin on their shares.
