Colman of Bregman, Cummings
& Co. feels that even though
the market has a healthy tono
"it is not ready jet to tako
off."
"I feel that die 763 area in
the Dow-Jones induMrial aver
age will be the top for the
year." Colman adds. "The cur
rent reaction will probably car
ry down for another week or
so but then turn up again on
heavy volume in perhaps the.
740 area."
Reynolds it Co. believes that
"the over-all background is still
strong enough to support sul
stantial moves in well chosen
special situations."
Eliot Janeway notes that the
hike in margin rales has helped
to put the bounce back into the
leaders. A supposedly restric
tive move often has tills effect
on a high-rise market, he says.
This particular action hap
pened to conincidc with one of
the market's periodic spells of
consolidation in between the
powerful upward surges of its
Iront-runncrs. The 6tage is be
ing set now for the drive from
the last high of 760 in the Dow
Jones industrials on towards tho
next target area around 780."
