Specialized Recoveries Mark Turbulent Trading Session
In New York on March 14 the stock market showed specialized recoveries as timid buying and selling dominated. About 150000 shares changed hands in two hours, a small Saturday total since last August. Optimists believed the market’s decline might be technical and that tax worries were subsiding though war front bulletins remained sparse. Chrysler backed off profit taking while President Keller’s message about spending over 60 million dollars on expanding war production drew attention. Notable performers included American Telephone, Consolidated Edison, Anaconda, American Smelting, Sears Roebuck, US Rubber, United Aircraft, Pepsi Cola, du Pont, and J C Penney, with steel and allied chemical stocks sliding to new lows. A lumber index showed weekly declines, and cargo war risk insurance rates rose along the Atlantic coast.
