Full recovery from the re cession of 1957-1958 was ac complished earlier this year and new highs have been set since then in many lines.

New Incentives , . Market men anticipate that the gains to be shown in the second quarter corporation re ports will be of sufficient scope to give the stock mar ket new incentives to speed up its summer rally which has been generating for some time. Higher earnings are chang ing the price-earnings ratios and making them look more in line with historic levels than they have been. Higher earnings for corpo rations will mean higher earn ings for employees, higher dividends for stockholders, and increased expenditures for plant rehabilitation and expansion. High Personal Income , Also there'll be a new rec ord in gross national product which will simmer down to record high personal income, and record high disposable in come. The end isn't in sight. Econ omists for Keystone Funds' $460 million investment man agement organization predict an eight per cent rise in gross national product at the end of 1959, . plus record highs for such items as industrial pro ductions, corporate profits and dividends, and personal in come. Optimism continues because all signs point to a continua tion of the upward phase of a normal business cycle that started from a low point in the first quarter of 1958," says Andrew P. Ferretti, economist for Keystone. He says the up ward phase should continue into 1960. Best Christmas Season Ferretti sees the best Christ mas season on record in pros pect for retailers, because per sonal income is expected , to show an after-tax gain of some $25 billion. Americans will have about $8 billion more discretionary income than they had last year, he adds. This economist believes con sumer durable goods, indus tries will be the principal ben eficiaries of increased spend ing, with consumer outlays in this general area up 20 per cent. He says this will include not only furniture, appliances and automobiles, but also the myriad new items which are sensitive to changes in discre tionary income - travel, sum mer and winter vacations, pic nic equipment, boats, swim ming pools, and the like. Sales of automobiles, which already have shown consider able improvement, should be up substantially in the first quarter of I960, perhaps as much as 30 per cent over the early months of this year, he holds. There are some cross cur rents right now as industry had expected. There has been some slackening in construc tion, slower demand and sag ging prices for copper, weak ness in plywood quotations. The foregoing are pointed out by Standard & Poor's which finds the economy just now is producing more than it is consuming-another way of saying inventories are be ing built up. Standard says the rate of accumulation is no greater than is justified, or even re quired, by the rising trend of activity, and the ratio of inventories to sales remains highly conservative. Around 30 Per Cent Gain Standard & Poor's estimates that the 1959 gain in corpo rate profits will be around 30 per cent or more; in dividends, close to 15 per cent. The firm estimates profits on its index of 425 industrial stocks at $3.85 a share against 1958's $2.95; for dividends, $2.10 against $1.88. The fourth quarter annual-rate levels should be around 4 for earn ings, $2.30 for dividends, it holds. On this basis, the firm notes, the current price-earnings ratio is 15.9 while the yield is 3.4; per cent. "Thus," it adde, "valuations are not extreme, especially when al lowance is made for inflation and the market's basically al tered supply-d e m a n d balance." Theyll Do It Every Time l.
