Banking Interests Buy Stocks on Small Scale
Large buying orders for seasoned railroad shares were withdrawn as prices rose then resumed in smaller blocks to avoid pushing prices up. Rail stocks led gains while others faced tight supply and rising premiums for overnight loan use. A Wall Street watcher noted car deliveries were delayed for several makes, and whispers of insider pools pushing Studebaker higher circulated amid talk of production curtailment. Bond activity showed broad gains in July with utilities and high-grade rails advancing while industrials dipped. The Olympic arrived with gold, and Steel faced mixed sentiment amid fears of shrinking float and possible open-market buybacks.
