‘SUGAR WILL GO LOWER, S0 STOCKS ARE NOT GOOD BUY, SAYS BABSON e ———— (Quoted Locally Only by The Hermld), Wellesley Hills. Masa, Oet, 12~ “Suger consumption, which has In. ereased every year for the last five years, is about to deeline," aceording to Roger W. Habson “The per capita epnsumption of sugar in the United States was 85 nds in 1913, say the statisticlan n & statement issued today. “In 1919 1t had been reduced to 53, only to rise to #1 pounds in 1920, In 19821 the figure reached 97 while last year we jumped to 103 poupds per caplia—the highest sugar consumption in history, This year the figuré will tend to de. cline, “Sugar had been a staple commedi. ty, fluctuating within & rather narrow Jprice range; that is, unti) the war up. set things. During the last four years prices have traveled a rough, un. steady path, From the fixed prive of 9 cents at the end of 1919 prices shot up to 23 cents—a level 300 per oent above pre.war quotations, Then came the break and the tobogghn slide to a low of 6 cents Ih December, 1931, Bince then there has been a steady recovery to a peak over 11 cents reached this year. Again the reaction . #et In and prices softened to a level at about 7 1.2 cents. In recent weeks there has been a reoccurrence of the bullish tendefcy and prices are again close to the year's peak, The funda. mental situftion, however, both in the sugar Iindustry and in general business would indicate that the upswing is about over and that prices are ahout to turn toward a more popular level, “Consumers of sugar should not stock of heavily, today, but should buy supplies as needed, #rices should be lower by the end of the year, “The securities of the sugar com- panles have also travelled a spectacu- lar course. Sugar stocks, like one or two other groups, notably coppers, move in close conformity with the pricefirend of their commodity. When the commodity is rising the stocks are rising and vice versa. In a sense, therefore, sugar stocks do not discount the future as much as other groups, but are governed by the same condi- tions that affect the commodity, clipate, production and demand. #The stock market in general touch- ed its peak in November, 1919, and declingd with only occasional inter- ruptions all through 1920, Sugar stocks touched a peak in November, 1919, declined in the spring of 1920 and then soared to a level of 12 per ceint Ngher than their previons top. lfrnm\;hal point they declin~’ .imost witholt interruptions, finai, reaching a low ji October, 1921, under the pre- war avérage. During this same period/ the teidency of the general market | +|and well satisfactory rate. had been downward but the move ment was of an eatirely different character; that 1s, & low was register- ed in 1920 and & sizable vally wit- nessed from that level with anether low in June, 1921, slightly under the first point, By October, at the time the sugars were making thelr low, the general market had made conslderable progress in its long swing upward, which continued all through 1922 and reached a peak last March, “The recent action of the sugar stocks has been likewise somewhat out of conformity with themovements of the general list. They reaghed & peak in the fall of 1922 and deelined with the rest of the market, rallying in March to a new hikh above the peak touched in October, This move. | ment had its basis in a'sharp rise in the price of » and & suppesed ‘shortage,’ While 1t was going on many people had visions of a repeti tion of conditions that prevailed in 1920 when there was an actual short. age of the commodity and sugar stocks skyrocketed, The strength, | however, at this time was short-lived | and sugars went down with the mar- | ket, There has been a recent strength- ening movement based upon the late seasonal rise in the commodity to satiafy canning requirements, “The long swing outiook suggests no extremely bearish or positively bullish factors. The wind.-up of the current season will undoubtedly mean a balance on the right wside of the ledger for all of the important sugar properties, Some of them may per. haps see fit to follow the lead of Cu. | bun-American Bugar, which recently resumed dividegd payments, With the end of the crofgigear and a somewhat | lower level for Lhe commodity, how. ever, sugar stocks may be reactionary, | but the downward movement, if any, | Is unlikely to result in much lower levels than we have seen during the current year. Soma time in 1924 it s probable that sugar stocks will be at. tractive ns a spequlative purchase.” General business as reflected in the | Babsonchart is running at 10 per cent below normal, indicating that read- Justment is progressing at an orderly .
