E. Mutton & Co. be lieves that this is not a runaway market, that jpcculalivc activity will continue restrained, and that now is not the lime to get ex cited. He says the important thing is not to follow a pronounced trend in prices. Most of the "fallen an gels" among the electronics, vending machine and other glam our slocks still are very much out of favor. Groups in favor, he notes, arc the motors, oils and selected blue chips. "Whatever one can say about the current trend in stocks, one factor is quite clear," says Thorn son St .McKinnon. "There has been steady accumulation of good issues." Such a situation in the past, it notes, has always been an indicator ol a strong market base. Abraham & Co. notes that re cent good news regarding orders for the machine tool industry has turned investors' attention toward this long dormant group. The in dustry appears to he at the be ginning of a cyclical upswing in volume that may, in his lirm s opinion, last for several years. Bache & Co. says that in view of growing investor interest, as well as the favorable economic climate, it continues to advocate purchase of recent market favorites. WALL STREET NEW YORK (UPI) - Stocks held steady today. Motors were narrowly mixed but hcmicals and steels were firm.
