TABEll'S MARKET lETTER 3S WALL STREET, NEW YORK 5, N. y, Digby 4-4141 The market concinues in a correctionary phase of the twenty-two point advance from the June lows. At the moment, tecqnical evidence pOints to the prot ability that the correctionary phase will be more in the nature of a consolidation than a reaction. I would expect any decline to reach its low not much below the 175-174 area. Obviously, this slight downtrend will be interrupted by occasional rallies. However, it would be better technical action if most of the work were concentrated in the lower area of the contemplated 183-174 trading range rather thar. around the top. The latter action might possibly build up a broader distrLbution area and indicate a decline of greater magnitude than now indl.caed. While the minor and near terla trend indicators show signs of doubtful or unfavorable act 1.0,-. the longer term'studies show no signs of deterioration. If the advice of the past few weeks has been followed, stocks in unfavorable groups have been liquidated in the 180-183 area and issues wjth favorable long term action have been retained. Would do no new buying until either a signal of the end of the correctionary phase is given or until the industrial average declines below 175.
