CAPITAL MARKETS DEVELOPMENTS
IN THE UNITED STATES

Corporate and municipal bond markets. New corporate security offerings
ill be relatively light. The volume of State and local government
offerings, however, will be significantly above-average for the third consecutive WE ek. Not included in the table below are two foreign debt issues'
aggregating $70 million, expected to be offered to U.S. investors this week.

1/ Federal Reserve estimates are based upon published reports of issues
sold and scheduled for offering; corporate rights offerings are
included as of the date subscription rights expire.

New and seasoned corporate bond yields declined substantially last
week. The new corporate yield series dropped 33 basis points, while Moody's
Aaa-rated corporate bond series declined 17 basis points. Last week's largest
new corporate debt issue — Houston Lighting and Power Company's Aaa-rated
first mortgage b o n d s — was reoffered to investors at a yield of 5.12 per cent
and quickly sold out.

-

Municipal bond yields dropped 19 to 25 basis points last week. Moody's
Aaa-rated municipal yield series now standsnat 3.35 per cent, the lowest level
since November 1965. New York City accepted a net interest cost on its $114
million issue that was sharply below other recent city issues, but investor
response was lukewarm — more than two-fifths of the issue was unsold by
week-end.

f
Private housing starts and permits. Seasonally adjusted private
housing starts rose 9 per cent further in December to an annual rate of 1,102
thousand. As was the case in November* the increase reflected largely a less
than seasonal decline in the unadjusted series from the already reduced October
level. Altogether, the annual rate for the fourth quarter as a whole averaged „

986 thousand, compared with a rate of just 848 thousand for October alone, but
it was still below (by 10 per cent) the reduced rate in the third quarter of
. the year.
For the year as a whole, private housing starts totaled 1,220 thousand,
the lowest since 1957 and 19 per cent below the declining level a year earlier.
The relative drop froio 1965 to 1966 was about the same for Government-underwritten
starts as for starts with conventional financing. As a result, the Governmentunderwritten share of total starts shifted only slightly further from 16.6 per
cent in 1965 to 16.2 per cent in 1966.
Seasonally adjusted building permits, which had leveled off in November
from their unusually low October rate, advanced 8 per cent in December. Permits
for single family structures accounted for most of the December rise, as permits
for structures of 2 or more units changed little. Regionally, permits in all
but the Northeast states (which had shown some improvement in November) shared
iri the advance.
Stock market credit. Total customer credit with New York Stock
Exchange member firms advanced $91 million during December to a month-end level
of $7,443 million. All of this increase was attributable to a $112 million rise
in customer's net debit balances, as bank loans to other than brokers and
1
dealers declined $21 million.
Money borrowed by brokers and dealers on customers' collateral advanced $70 million, the first monthly increase since July 1966. Money borrowed on
other than customers' collateral advanced $232 million to a record high of
$801 million.
More information on stock market credit is presented in the table
on the following page.
Stock market. - Common stock prices advanced last week in very heavy
trading. Standard and Poor's index of 500 stocks registered 86.07 at the close
of trading on Friday, a gain of 1.53 points for the week. Trading volume
averaged 10.6 million shares a day.

ments is presented in the attached exhibits.

!

For retrospective data on aggregate foreign corporate arul government security offer-"it
ings 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 takedowns may take place
both prior and subsequent to the date a placement is reported.
