Market Swept By Buying Wave As Gold Price Set
New York October 25 Buying waves swept through markets as traders shifted into commodities and equities amid inflationary psychology. The government set gold at 31.36 an ounce, stocks opened uncertain but gained after early profit taking. Wheat rose three to four cents, rye over four, cotton up more than a dollar per bale, and copper firmed as the dollar rallied against sterling. European traders resumed activity and bankers weighed Washington’s gold control policy as a potential spur to currency expansion and dollar depreciation. Leading financiers remained cautiously optimistic about giving the program a chance.
