FNMA secondary market operations. Sales by the Federal
National Mortgage Association in the secondary market advanced in
April. Although the total ($12,7 million) was the highest this year,
it was only a £.action of the more than SI65 million level maintained
last spring.
~
Purchases by FNMA totaled $26.4 million in April. This was
the largest amount for any month since November of 1962, but it was
still quite small by most earlier standards and reflected mainly
deliveries from the Federal Housing Administration in exchange for
FNMA-held FHA-debentures. Offerings to FNMA, which reached an April
total of $28.5 m i l l i o n — w e r e also mainly from FHA.
Stock prices. Common stock prices, as measured by Standard
and Poor's composite, index cf 500 stocks „ eased slightly on balance
last week to close, at 80,37 on May 28
Trading volume averaged 4.3
million shares a day, off 0,5 million shares from the average for the
previous week and the lowest since early February,
Estimated security financing in June.. - Both corporate and
State and local government security financing to obtain new capital
will be in larger volume in June than May, but the increase in supply
is considerably larger for corporate offerings.
New capital financing of corporations is expected to total
$1.4 billion, nearly 50 per cent larger than in May and three-tenths
larger than the June average f or the two previous years - Most of the
May-June expansion is attributable t.r, large takedowns of private
placements which are customarily greater in June.
In addition, the
$200 million Communications Sattelite Corporation common stock issue
will be sold in June, and other large issues currently scheduled
amount to S400 million. Combined public offerings of $600 million
are one-third more than in May and aimost twice the total offered
last year
June financing in this v-tume wouId bring the April-June
total to 3 5 billion, almost three-;it;hs more than in the. corresponding period last year and only 6 per cent under the 1961 record
second quarter volume,
State and local government security financing is estimated
at $750 million for June, one-fifth more than the revised total for
May, but one-fifth loss chan a year ea-lier. If this estimate is
correct, municipal bond financing would total $2,5 billion in the
second quarter, 8 per cert: below last year's record April-June total.
Capital irarkets in May. N-r-.v capital financing cf corporations
totaled $950 million in May, iest than half the near record April total
which included the $1^ billion AT&T st:ck issue, Large public offerings
of non-convertible bonds, on the other land, amounted to $415 million
in May, the largest monthly volume since las: December.
Early in May average offering yields on new corporate bonds
(adjusted to an Aaa basis) rose to their r.igr.f.st level since January
1962--apparently in anticipation of t'.-e increased volume of public
offerings - Subsequently the yield average turned down again, as




-3-

H. 14

general bond market sentiment shifted to the view that near-term
advances in interest rates stemming from the tax cut were less likely
then had previously been expected. At the end of May the new issue
yield average was 4.45 per cent, little changed from the previous
month, but 8 basis points below the early May peak. Investor demand,
however, which has picked up early in the month on rising new offering
yields,was sluggish for most issues sold after offering yields started
to fall,and yields on seasoned issues showed little change. As a
result, syndicate balances rose rather sharply during the second half
of May.
Bond sales of State and local governments totaled $0.6
billion in May, down almost one-half from the near-record April sales
and one-third less than the 1962-63 June average. Yields on highgrade municipal bonds, which began to ease after peaking in late March,
were 3.08 per cent at month-end, four basis points below the preceding
month and down eight basis points from their late March peak. Although
investors c o d e d somewhat to current offering yields on new issues late
in the month, retail distribution of most issues was favorable.
Dealer's, however, made only modest inductions in their sizable inventories of unsold securities, which totaled about $580 million near the
end of May.
After recovering their late April losses and inching up to
a new peak at mid-May, common stock prices, as measured by Standard and
Poor's composite index of 500 stocks, drifted off somewhat. At 80.37
on May 28, prices were about one per cent higher than at the end of
April, but one per cent under their mid-May peak and about the same as
in mid-April. Trading volume averaged 4.5 million shares a day, 1.1
million shares a day less than in April.

developments is presented in the attached exhibits.

concerning timing of takedowns. Full or partial takedowns may take place both
prior and subsequent to the data a placement is reported.
