Long-term bond offerings should total over $1 billion this week. Although the volume of new, publicly-offered, corporate securities is expected to be well below the average weekly volume over the past year, municipal offerings will be almost twice their weekly average and other issuers will be in the market for an additional $0.5 billion., The largest tax-exempt offering will be Beauregard Parish's $105 million of industrial revenue bonds; the two outsized issues offered by others will be $250 million of World Bank bonds and $250 million of F.N.M.A. bonds. There will be no corporate offerings of notable size. 1/ Long-term Public Security Offerings (In millions of dollars) Coriaorate New Capital Refunding State and local Government New Capital [ Refunding Sold: 294 52 week avg. 1 — 279 September 6 r/162 September 13 275 244 20 120 527 1 r/214 — Scheduled; September 1/ — Federal Reserve estimates are based upon published reports of issues sold and scheduled for offering; corporate rights offerings are included as of date subscription rights expire. Yields on new and seasoned corporate bonds were unchanged to slightly higher last week — the small drop in the new issue series was caused solely by a shift in the volume of issues carrying call protection. New issues met with a very cool reception and, as a result, the volume of bonds still in syndicate rose quite sharply. Yields on municipals were unchanged to somewhat lower last week, while new issues met with only a fair reception. By the end of the week 77 per cent had been sold. Underwriters succeeded in reducing somewhat their extremely large volume of holdings -- but only at a considerable loss — by releasing from syndicate several issues offered around the middle of August. In free market trading, the yields on these issues advanced 25 to 30 basis points.

NOTE: For retrospective data on aggregate foreign corporate and government security offerings in the United States see Exhibits I and J. There is no simple relationship between the data shown in the Exhibit and that shown in Exhibits I and J because the latter includes privately placed securities in the period in which funds are actually taken down but only in the amount of takedown while the placements shown in this exhibit are included when reported, frequently with little or no information concerning timing of takedown. Full or partial takedown may take place both prior and subsequent to the date a placement is reported. z %
