THE SHARE MARKET

DUNEDIN' STOCK EXCHANGE, Though the turnover on ’Chang© yesterday was not bo extensive as of late, there was a little business done. Three parcels of Bank of New Zealand were placed at 625, and the market closed with a shilling margin. AVaihi eold at 21s, and at the finish a buyer offered close up, the seller making a ninepenny market. These were the only stocks dealt in, but there was no sign of the market weakening; rather the contrary. This was particularly the case with Government stocks, which improved in price. _ Sales: AVaihi, 21s; Bank of .
