In New York on August 5 the Market notes that a widespread drought may prove bullish for stocks. After years of overproduction there is abundant grain that can replace lost output. This supports demand for supplies and reduces dependence on ag surpluses. Improved commodity activity and rising motor car and steel production signal a brighter economic tone. The stock market is pricing in a hopeful outlook and ongoing demand for securities.
