Twelfth Avenue-Phone 233 6451 THE BLRCH HIÍ1G of the numi q M um Bay's got th« man’s number and takes K ...it BOO ta 1 by Travera Jerome Bell, Jr. Executive Vice Preaident, Daniela A Kell, Inc. For many months now the small investor fre q u e n tly referred to as the "public" - has been conspicuous by his lor her) absence from the stock market. W hatever the reasons, and most are obvious, W all Street presently is making a large and concerted effort to bring bark these investors. The industry is doing this not only because it makes good busi ness sense, but, equally im portant, it la felt such a move might restore to the market the stability it is so sorely larking from a combination of individual and institutional investors. In addition to massive ad vertising and promotion cam paigns, the securities industry also has been seeking and developing new investment vehicles to attract, and hold, the public. One such investment is the closed end bond funds that have been coming to market at so prodigious a rate lately. Closed end bond funds may be a suitable investment medium for investors who wish to participate in a more diversified portfolio of in come producing secu rities than they might be able to purchase on an individual basis. In many instances, such securities are readily avail able only in relatively large dollar amounts and may, in the case of securities ob tained through direct place ment, be available only to institutional investors. Direct placement securities, because they are not freely market able, frequently offer higher yields than those available on comparable publicly traded debt securities. W h a t does closed end mean? As a closed end invest ment, a company differs from an open end situation in that shareholders will not have the right to have their shares redeemed by the company at net asset value or otherwise. Further, the company will not continuously offer its shares to the public. A fte r completion of a public offering, the m arket price at which the company's shares can be bought or sold may be more or less than the net asset value of the shares. Shares of closed-end invest ment companies frequently sell at a discount from their net asset value. The primary objective of most closed end bond funds is to provide a high rate of current income, with capital appreciation as a secondary objective. Most of the new bond funds are fairly conservative vehicles, investing in high grade bonds and seeking annual yields of 7 to 7 '/i% . For investors concerned about the rate of inflation, but worried about the risks A unique scholarship fund which could set a pattern for industry support of manage ment training for minority students has been established at Portland State University, Xerox Corporation Portland Branch Manager Robert Ra couillat and PSU School of Business Administration As sistant Dean Gerald Halver son announced re c e n tly .
