Trend of Stock Prices for Past Week Analyzed
The market faced resistance around 251 252 on the Dow Industrials and may test the March low of 243.95. Several late February and early March turns occurred at 251.34 251.53 and 243.95, with a recovery above that level in late March. Institutional buying power remains the bullish factor, and dividends are likely to exceed last year’s highs. The advice favors buying a portion of reserves while selecting solid dividend-paying stocks with growth and steady earnings.
