Selling pressure was particularly severe against the coppers and rails, more than a score of which were hammered to new low levels for the year. Weak spots also’ cropped out in nearly all other leading groups, the declines running from 1 to 7 points in th tive issues, and as much as 19 points in some of the specialties. Unfayorable earnings and trade reports, including unconfirmed ru- {mors of a shading in steel pricei i probably stimulated the selling movement, although there was a | rather widespread feeling that the | veaction was nothing more than a correction of speculative excesses which had taken place earlier in the vear. Much of today's selling was to be for short account, indications of cxcellent scale buying in a number of issues, cur- rent carnings and prospects of | which are favorable. One of the |1arge commission houses, which urged the liquidation of stocks three | weeks ago, today recommended the purchase of high grade fssues. Dow Jones & Co. reported a slight decline in steel operations during the | past week, estimating current activ- [ity around 77% per cent of capacity |as against 78 per cent a week ago. | The “quarterly report of the U. S. Stecl Corporation, due after the close of the market, is expected to show carnings of between $3 and $35. share as against $5.04 in the first quarter of last year.
