A circular issued by a London, firm of , stockbrokers under date the 7th; December , ' directs attention to the marked change , which has occurred since the pre-war period_ in the prices for first-class investment stocks' '■ ana in the returns yielded by investment in these stocks. Whereas stocks of this description gave an average return to 'the buyer of 3| per cent, to 4 per cent, in the spring of 1914 they" now, at prices which are 30 to 40 per cent,, lower than they then were, yield a return round 6 per cent. By way of illustration, the following are cited : as typical stocks: — . . ~ Price, Prico,March, Yield, Deo./ "Consols, 2J p.c. Local loans, 3 p.c. ... War stock, 5 p. 0., 1929/47 London and N.W. Railway, 3 p.o. . debentures Great Western Railway, 5 p-o. guaranteed Midland Railway, 21 p.o. preference Canadian Pacific Railway, 4 p.c. debentures N.S.W. 4 p.o. inscribed, 1933 these 1914. 7RJ 87J p.c. 3 6-16 3 7-16 50} 63} Yield;' P-t, . 6 6 ; 6t 6 9-ie 67} ' 8 3} Disoussmg 6} .- and u price - movements claiming "that the present affords an oppoiri tunity for the purchase of first-class, stock* . ; as bottom prioos, the firm write: — 1. The necessities of the war have led to two strongly-contrasted movements;— j first, the rise in the bank rate from 3 to 7 per cent, and the consequent fall in thsprices of all investment stocks, and/ secondly, the rise in price of all raw J modifies, articles of food, and tured goods. ’ • . 2. These movements had a common cause, and now that that cause has. ceased ' Z to operate it is reasonable to thipk that these movements will be reversed. ’ ’ i.- , 3. Such a reversal has already started - in the big wholesale markets, in which - ; prices have fallen sharply in many dims- - tions, and it is only a question qf tima. for -this change to spread to ths retaiL markets. . '' v . 4 11 4. We conclude from this that the time., ~f| is ripe for an improved demand for • ijftJlß 2% vestment stocks, and as a matter of fact/*? there is already evidence in the msrkett'’ that this has begun. 4 > js 5. In a word, the war made goods dear' , and stocks cheap; Peace should maki^i'■ * : goods cheaper and put stocks higher. ‘ . _ li.j.fjgggmg Before an aeroplane is it has to paw through 292 issta. ~ '
