j —CSP'ITAL MARKET DEVELOPMENTS
STATES
(Including Review of Capital Market Developments
in January)

Public security financing to obtain new capital was in moderate
volume last week but is expected to be substantial this week. During
the week ending February 1 4 a $108 million State and local government
bond issue and $23 million of Japan Development Bank bonds were sold;
no large corporate issues were offered for new capital purposes, but
Dallas Power and Light Company offered $25 million in bonds to refund
outstanding securities. This week, ending February 8, a $50 million
corporate issue, and four State and local issues with par value of
$153 million are scheduled for offering. In addition the Federal
Land Banks are expected to offer $33 million of 15-year bonds for
new capital.
Bond yields. Changes in yields on seasoned, long-term bonds
were mixed but minor last week. Yields on Aaa-rated corporate bonds
were stable, while Baa-rated corporate yields fell one basis point to
4.90 per cent, the lowest since April 1959. Both Aaa- and Baa-rated
State and local government bonds yields rose two basis points to 2.97
and 3.57 per cent, respectively. U. S. Government bond yields declined
a basis point to 3.90 per cent.
Average yields on new corporate bonds, adjusted to an Aaa
basis, declined one basis point last week to 4.21 per cent, about
the same level as early in January.
Short- and intermediate-term interest rates. The average
effective rate on Federal Funds declined slightly to 2.9.8 per cent.
Other short- and intermediate-term interest rates were unchanged.
Recent changes in yields on municipals bonds of different
maturities. The sale of a large serial bond issue by the City of
New York (rated A) last week presents an opportunity to compare
recent changes in yields on municipal bonds of different terms to
maturity while maintaining quality and other characteristics
cons-ant, since New York also sold bonds in late October when
municipal yields were at their most recent low. Since then State
and local bond yields have risen; as indicated by the following
table this has been true for all maturities with, however, the
increase in yields on shorter maturity bonds being somewhat larger
than that in yields on long-term securities.

FNMA secondary market operations. Purchases of mortgages
by the Federal National Mortgage Association in the secondary market
declined further in December to a level of $13.5 million, the lowest
since October of 1958. The recent decline followed a temporary
recovery during early autumn after a sharp drop through the first
seven months of 1962. Offerings also continued downward in December,
but were moderately above the reduced level of purchases. Sales
by FNMA, which had turned up in November, increased somewhat further
and, at $14.4 million, slightly exceeded the level of purchases.
Stock prices. Common stock prices advanced slightly further
on balance last week in active trading, Prices, as measured by
Standard and Poor's composite index of 500 stocks-, rose about one-half
of a per cent to close at 66.31 on February 1. Trading volume
averaged 4.3 million shares a day, 0.4 million shares less than the
average for the previous week.
Estimated February security volume. Security financing to
obtain new capital by corporations is expected to be relatively light
in February, but new bond financing by State and local governments
will be very large.
New security financing by
estimated at $650 million, slightly
one-fourth smaller than in February
scheduled for public offering total

corporations in February is
less than a month earlier and
1962. Large issues currently
$167 million.

Bond sales of State and local governments in February are
expected to total $0.9 billion, three-tenths more than in January
but one-fifth less than the record volume sold in February last year.
Large issues currently on the calendar for sale in February total.
$376 million.
Capital markets in January. New security financing by
corporations was relatively light in January, while State and local
government bond sales were in moderate volume; the U. S. Treasury's
first sale of long-term bonds at competive bidding was a marked success.

Yields on corporate bonds fell somewhat further on balance during the
month, while State and local government bond yields contined to rise
moderately.
Corporate long-term security financing to obtain new capital
totaled $700 million in January, .one-third less than the large
December volume, when seasonally large takedowns of private placements
accounted for the bulk of the total, but about one-fifth more than
in either of the two preceding Januaries. Large issues sold publicly
for new capital in January amounted to $234 million, consisting of
$215 million in nonconvertible bonds and a $19 million preferred
stock issue--the first large stock issue sold since October. An
additional $85 million in bonds were sold to obtain funds to retire
outstanding securities. 'Most new issues met with indifferent investor
reception and were still in the process of being distributed at
month-end. Because of the small volume "of new offerings, however,
unsold syndicate balances, although larger than at the end of December,
were moderate.
Yields on seasoned Aaa-rated corporate bonds declined two
basis points further to 4.20 per cent (daily basis) by mid-month, the
lowest level since April 1959, but edged up a basis point to 4.21
per cent soon after mid-month, where they remained throughout the
rest of the month. Yields on new corporate bonds, adjusted to an
Aaa basis, also were somewhat lower at mid-month than later.
New capital bond issues by State and local governments
totaled $700 million in January, two-fifths more than in December,
but one-fifth less than a year earlier. In addition, $163 million
of bonds were sold by Memphis, Tennessee, to obtain funds for later
retirement of outstanding high-coupon securities.
Dealers encountered considerable difficulty both in
distributing new issues and moving the considerable volume of
inventory carried over from earlier months. As a result their
advertised inventory of unsold securities rose $50 million during
the month to $570 million and yields on seasoned Aaa-rated State
and local government bonds rose three basis points to 2.97 per cent.
Common stock prices advanced further during January
in active trading. Prices, as measured by Standard and Poor's
composite index of 500 stocks, rose over four per cent to close at
66.20 on January 31. At their end of January level, average prices
had recovered 68 per cent of the loss incurred between the December
1961 high and last June's low. Trading volume averaged 4.6 million
shares a day, 0.6 million shares above the December average and
appreciably higher than in most other months of 1962.
More detailed information concerning recent capital market
developments is presented in the attached exhibits.
