The industrials regained a portion of the decline but closed 39 cents lower. Still visualize the possibility that the market is in the process of forming an intermediate distribution area. However, the pattern does not, as yet, appear to be complete. Would expect further backing and filling in a comparatively restricted area, ;s f1cr as the averages are concerned., with special situations and groups highlighted.
