1/ Federal Reserve estimates based upon published reports of issues sold
and scheduled for offering; Corporate rights offerings are included
as of the date subscription rights expire.
Investors responded unenthusiastically to the major corporate
debt issues offered last week, and as a result, large unsold balances
remain in syndicate. Both new and seasoned yields advanced 1 basis
point.
Municipal yields were largely unchanged to a slight decline
in some issues. Municipal dealer's advertised inventories declined
to below the $500 million mark, as a renewed investor interest appeared
to be a factor in the strength of last week's market.
Stock prices. The stock market declined significantly last
week in active trading. Standard and Poor1 s index of 500 stocks declined
2.37 to end the week at 85.47--the lowest level since August 1965.
Common stock prices have now receded approximately 7.6 per cent from the
historic high of 94.06 attained February 9. Trading volume averaged
8.6 million shares a day.

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 J. There is no simple relationship between the
data shown in Eh'e:*.E*hlbit and that shown in Exhibits I and J because the latter includes
privately placed securities in the period in which funds are actually takendown 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 takedowns. Full
or partial takedowns may take place both prior and subsequent to the date a placement
is reported.
