Steel Buying Lifts Stocks In Quiet New York Session
Quiet buying of steels and motors lent a slight upward tilt to the stock market on August 2 in New York. Leaders showed mixed results with gains for some favorites, while others lagged. Short covering and speculative demand appeared, aided by hopes of British resistance to a Nazi invasion and expectations of leniency on excess profits taxes. Major movers included U S Steel, Bethlehem, Chrysler, General Motors, United Aircraft, Westinghouse, du Pont, Montgomery Ward, Chesapeake & Ohio, and Brooklyn Manhattan Transit. Texas Corporation and American Smelting lagged.
