Market Review and Outlook Amid Coal Strike Dullness
Last week’s market was the dullest of the year despite Boer War ending, with little near term hope for activity or higher prices. The coal strike is the dominant constraint, with operators resisting concessions and aiming to prevent mine flooding, risking a lower market until peace seems near. Big Wall Street interests have held prices high, dampening public interest and keeping losses likely as strikes extend. Notable weekly changes in New York: Anaconda 234, Canadian Pacific 25-8, Atchison common 17-8, Amalgamated and Paul 13-8, Colorado Fuel and 11-4, Erie common 1, with notable losses in American Telephone 7, Tamarack 5, Dominion Iron 356-8, and others.
