Market Dullness Triggers Sharp New York Break
The New York market fell sharply after 2 p.m. on Monday August 11 with most stocks dropping one to two points. The downturn followed a weak bank statement and fears of tighter money, while some issues in Boston showed strength in copper and Massachusetts Electric. Industry chatter linked Amalgamated and Heinze interests to potential amicable settlement, and overall sentiment suggested a rally could occur tomorrow or Wednesday.
