AUCKLAND STOCK EXCHANGE.

INVESTMENT STOCKS AND SHARES. COMPARISONS OF RECENT TRANSACTIONS. TO TUESDAY, MAY 2, 1933. The following table furnishes a guide to investors. It shows the trend of tho market over twelve months for a comprehensive list of securities, at the same time indicating the latest movements, namely, from April 11 to the date of compilation. The rate of interest obtainable to present-day purchasers is also presented, the calculation based on the latest dividends. Since last review there have been small quantities of Government stocks offering, and'these have been promptly snapped up by investors with tlie result that the four per cents are already selling at par. Ihis has been a decided factor in a general firming up of several other sections. Insurances have gone still higher, and there have been advances in the values ot a number of leading industrials. Amongst instances that will be noted below are Auckland Gas, Bycrofts, Wilsons Cement, Wailns and Colonial Sugar. The net result has been to reduce the rate of interest available to present purchasers.
