TABELL'S MARKET LEnER 35 WALL STREET, NEW YORK 5, N. Y. Digby 4-4141 The market has been going through a period of consolidation in approximately the 174–177 range for the last nine trading days, A downside penetration, if it ,occurs, should not carry the industrial average much lower. An upside penetration could continue to 180-183. The important thing to be deduced from the technical action of the market over the past two months is, in my opinion, that while the averages may have some difficulty in moving sharply higher, special situations can now be bought with much less fear that sharp downside liquidation in the general market will also carry favorable situations downward with it. Listed below are the remaining issues in my recommended list. This portion consists of the more speculative issues. Stocks marked with an asterisk show above average action and should be purchased during periods of market irregularity.
