MARKET UNCERTAIN
BANK SHARE VALUES LONDON, Oct. 17. The decision to nationalise all the Australian banks has put the market for these shares in a very uncertain frame of mind, says Reuter’s financial correspondent. Prices are still quoted, but with a good deal less freedom than formerly and, in fhost cases, the brokers are called on to state whether they are buyers or sellers. It is generally anticipated that negotiations for the taking over of the banks will be long drawn-out, but it is expected that when the final decisipn to pay is made, the sum to be dispersed among shareholders will exceed the value on the present price levels.
