Early Gains Lost as Erie Issues Rise in Market
A Washington Post report from New York on April 14 notes a busy day in trading with gains in Consolidated Gas Westinghouse Electric and Interborough Metropolitan stocks. Court actions aimed at freeing nearly 501 000 tied to gas price differences influenced Consolidated Gas, while Westinghouse benefited from restructuring hopes. Market hesitation followed mid-day as trading volumes fell and sentiment cooled amid gold flows and copper and wheat price shifts driven by supply and weather reports.
