Stock Market Holds Despite Higher Call Rate
In New York this day brokers faced a mixed session as a higher call money rate to 5 percent drew little attention while outlooks of strengthened liquidity and policy led to sustained demand. Copper prices rose on currency stabilization hopes, with European demand expected to boost American exports. Investors showed cautious optimism, predicting both supply and demand to rise into year end, though investment needs may drive the market ahead.

New York Cotton Market Surges On Strong Cables
New York December 23 Better cables gave the cotton market a strong impulse with an initial 25 point gain that held through the day. Demand for January from spot houses checked shorts while boosting holders in other positions. The exchange reopens after Christmas on Tuesday as first notice day for January contracts approaches. Weakness in spot after year end would only come with a worse textile outlook. No aggressive long stance, but recoveries attract trade demand for cotton.
