Berlin Bourse Ends Week With Mixed Trading Impetus
Last week on the Berlin Bourse opened with unusual strength amid hopes of a Kaffir boom in London that failed to materialize, causing a dull market until Friday’s gains from New York and London lifted shares. Strong performance in Imperial and Prussian 32% bonds, Spanish 4/8, Italian 4/8, and Russian 4% bonds supported activity. Domestic banks advanced early then pulled back. Canadian Pacific slipped on crop news. Iron and coal rose but cooled. Hamburg American and North German Lloyd fell on rumors of an opposing shipping combine, later denied. German Atlantic Cable declared a 4.4% dividend and earmarked 20 million marks to fund a new cable. Madrid reports show gold up, silver up, and notes in circulation down.
