Market Nervous and Sensitive Day in War Crisis Conditions
Wall Street opened with a sober tone as war developments in the far east influenced markets. Amalgamated Copper firmed briefly but fell amid legal worries. Amalgamated led a listless session with nerves high and volume light. Boston trading offered little strength as copper and textile shares shifted, while reports touched on Amalgamated investigations and local business updates.
