Corporate and municipal bond markets. The volume of new corporate
security offerings expected this week is relatively light with the largest
issue represented by the rights expiration of Chemical Bank New York TrUst
Company's $52 million convertible offering. New municipal issues expected
are somewhat above the average weekly volume over the past year. Dominating
the municipal market will be the Port of New York Authority's $100 million
negotiated revenue bond offering.

issues sold and scheduled for offering; corporate rights offerings
are included as of date subscription rights expire.
Yields on new and seasoned corporate bonds declined further last
week. Last week's major issue, Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company's
Aaa-rated $165 million debenture offering, Was sold out at a reoffering
yield of 6.45 per cent. A directly comparable telephone issue one month
ago was priced to yield 6.72 per cent.
Municipal yields declined substantially last week and are now
approximately 50 basis points below their May peaks. New issues met with
a good reception as more than two-thirds of last week's issues were sold
out by the Friday close of trading.
Home mortgage interest rates and other terms. Secondary market
yields on 6.75 per cent FHA-insured new-home mortgages averaged 7.52 per cent
in June. This was the first month since April that an official yield figure
could be developed because the FHA-regulatory ceiling on such mortgages was
raised — from 6.0 per cent — during May. While discounts required by
lenders on such mortgages in June were quite high, they compared with almost

8 points in April under the previous ceiling. Also, as expected, the
competitive position of such mortgages improved; vis-a-vis new Aaa corporate
bonds, for example, the yield spread in their favor widened to 86 basis
points -- the most favorable since April 1967. 4
Interest rates on conventional loans for both new and existing
homes rose 10 basis points further in June to new highs of 7.25 per cent
and 7.30 per cent, respectively, as reported by the Federal Housing Administration. The June increases compared with record 25 basis point advances
in each case durin May. While increases continued in all regions during
the May-June period in response to pressures generally prevailing in
capital markets, a large part of the advance at that time reflected
very sharp upward adjustments by lenders in line with the new usury rate
ceiling changes inaugurated in several states concentrated mainly in
the Middle Atlantic and Northeast regions.
According to Federal Home Loan Bank data — which tend to lag
the FHA series — interest rates for conventional first mortgages on new
homes were up even more sharply in June than in May. On an effective
rate basis, the increase in June for such loans amounted to 19 basis points,
to a level of 7.03 per cent; those for existing home loans showed nearly
the same increase as in May, to 7.12 per cent. Related maturities lengthened
somewhat to 25.4 years and 22.6 years, respectively. At the same time,
loan-to-price ratios for new homes (in decline since February) turned upward
to 74.4 per cent, but those for loans on existing homes were unchanged, at
73.1 per cent. With average purchase prices holding at about their already
advanced levels, corresponding implied downpayments in June averaged $7.8
thousand and $6.8 thousand — at or not far below recent highs.
Stock Market. Common stock prices declined last week in active
trading. Standard & Poor's composite index of 500 stocks closed the week
at 98.34 a drop of 2.12 points from the week earlier. Trading volume
averaged 14.7 million shares a day.
More detailed information concerining recent capital market
developments is presented in the attached exhibits.

NOTE: For retrospective data on aggregate foreign corporate and government security
offerings in the United States see Exhibits.I and U. 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.
