Market Opens Stronger in New York Then Slumps on Gold Demand
The market opened stronger on better London price signals and no discount rate rise by the Bank of England, but later weakened significantly. Buying returned led by Lackawanna before a 1 million dollar gold shipment ordered by Kidder, Peabody & Co. pressured prices from 14 to 7 percent, though closes remained fairly firm. Stocks show wide, nervous swings amid a cautious view that stronger holders are absorbing, with anticipation of a future rally once monetary conditions clear. Copper and Reading activity showed varied moves while London gold pressure and sterling exchange shaped sentiment and shipping profitability.
