Weekly Review of Stocks Week of Turbulent Liquidation in New York
In New York during March 27 stock markets faced an enormous sell off as prices for over 100 stocks hit yearly lows. Bearish sentiment grew from discouraging reports and money market weakness driven by forced selling by traders and professionals unable to carry positions. The International News industrial average fell from 126.71 to 107.16 since February, signaling a broad decline. Distress selling harmed major plungers like Durant and Whelan, while bankers argued loan calls reflected liquidity pressure rather than future business prospects, amplified by canceled auto orders from Detroit manufacturers.
