Irregular NY market sees stocks hit new lows for year
The New York market opened April 30 with uncertain, confusing moves as over 30 stocks touched new yearly lows. While readings rose on some issues like Reading and Union Pacific, broad confidence was weak, and gains came mainly from short covering amid weak March earnings and a softer steel outlook. London purchases offered limited support as some European guidance proved offset by lingering selling pressure.

New York City Plans to Buy Its Own Bonds At A Discount
New York City moves to repurchase about 30 million dollars of its old 3 percent bonds maturing 1957 to 1959 for the sinking fund. The bonds, bought from the public years ago, trade around 92 to 92.5, while recently issued 4 1/2 percent bonds sell near par. Even with last year’s 4 1/2 percent issue, the city could buy back and save the year’s interest, as prices rise above par yield.
