OF RICHMOND

Clnnliiriinc Hnntihfy Review of Capital Markets Developments)
Public security financing to obtain new capital was i n
r e l a t i v e l y l i g h t volume l a s t week and i s expected to be only moderately
larger t h i s week. During the week ending May Ij., two large corporate
security issues (including an expiring rights offer) t o t a l i n g $58
million were sold and two State and l o c a l governments offered bonds
with par value of $U5 million. An additional $20 million bond issue
was sold by the Kingdom of Denmark. This week, ending May 11, only one
corporate issue f o r #20 m i l l i o n i s scheduled; four State and l o c a l bond
issues amounting to $66 million are on the calendar; and the Government
of New Zealand and the European Coal and S t e e l Community are each
expected to o f f e r $25 million bond i s s u e s .
Bond y i e l d s . Most y i e l d s on seasoned, long-term bonds declined
l a s t week. Yields on Aaa-rated corporate and State and l o c a l government
bonds each declined an additional basis point t o lw30 and 2.92 per cent,
respectively. Yields on Baa-rated corporate issues increased one b a s i s
point to 5.02 per cent, while y i e l d s on Baa-rated State and l o c a l government i s s u e s were unchanged at 3.52 per. cent. Yields on long-term U. S.
Government bonds declined 3 b a s i s points to 3.87 per cent, t h e i r lowest
l e v e l since l a s t May.
Average y i e l d s on new corporate bonds, adjusted to an Aaa b a s i s ,
were It.lU per cent l a s t week, 2 basis points above t h i s year's low
reached during the week ending April 13.
Short- and intermediate-term i n t e r e s t r a t e s . Changes i n y i e l d s
on Treasury b i l l s and 3-5 year U. S. Government obligations were mixed
but minor l a s t week. Yields on 3-month Treasury b i l l s increased one
b a s i s point while y i e l d s on 6-month b i l l s were unchanged; y i e l d s on
intermediate-tern Governments declined a s i n g l e basis point. The average
i n t e r e s t rate paid on directly-placed finance company paper with 90-179
day maturity declined 6 basis points to an even 3.00 per cent as a l l
finance companies adjusted their rates to the change announced two weeks
e a r l i e r by several companies. The Federal funds rate declined 20 basis
points from the revised l e v e l of the previous week to 2.65 per cent.
Other short- and intermediate-term i n t e r e s t rates were unchanged.
FNMA secondary market operations. Purchases of mortgages i n
the secondary market by the Federal National Mortgage Association
dropped moderately further i n March and a t $81.5 million, exceeded new
offerings to FNMA f o r the second successive month. Reflecting the
strength i n private demand f o r mortgages, s a l e s by FNMA, which had
turned up i n February, surged sharply further, to *75.9 m i l l i o n , the
l a r g e s t volume since l a s t May and nearly as large as purchases. In
response to these developments FNMA increased i t s s e l l i n g prices one-half
point, e f f e c t i v e April 12.




Stock prices. Common stock prices, as measured by Standard
and Poor's composite index of 500 stocks, fluctuated widely l a s t week
but changed l i t t l e on balance. Prices declined 2 per cent l a s t Monday
to a new low f o r the year, but recovered nearly a l l of t h i s l o s s l a t e r
i n the week closing at 6602it on May I4.. Trading was f a i r l y a c t i v e ,
averaging 3.9 million shares a day, 0.1* million shares more than the
previous week.
May security volume. Security financing to obtain new c a p i t a l
by corporations i s expected to be r e l a t i v e l y l i g h t in May, while bond
sales by State and l o c a l governments w i l l be in moderate volume.
Corporate security s a l e s are expected to t o t a l $0.7 b i l l i o n ,
about t w o - f i f t h s l e s s than the large volume of both l a s t month and
May 1961. Public offerings of $15 million or more are expected to t o t a l
$185 million.
State and l o c a l governments are expected t o s e l l $750 million
i n bonds i n May, about one-eighth l e s s than the revised April t o t a l but
one-taith above the average f o r May of the two previous years. Large
public offerings currently scheduled f o r the month amount to $333 million.
Capital markets i n April. Sales of s e c u r i t i e s by corporations
to obtain new capital were in veiy large volume in April, while State
and local government bond s a l e s were f a i r l y substantial.
Long-term financing by corporations amounted to $1«,2 b i l l i o n
in April, one-half larger than i n March, but $ l o 0 b i l l i o n l e s s than the
record April I96I volume which, however, included a $965 million AT&T
common stock offering. About $0„2 b i l l i o n of l a s t month's t o t a l were
large stock issues, mostly expiring subscription o f f e r i n g s . This was
the largest stock volume since April I96I. Large nonconvertible bond
i s s u e s offered during the month t o t a l e d $ii30 m i l l i o n , more than in any
month since l a s t June.
Most bond issues sold l a s t month were offered by syndicates
that had acquired the i s s u e s through negotiated sale and, as i s usually
the case in t h i s type of o f f e r i n g , were quickly distributed at r e t a i l
by the underwriters. Several of the i s s u e s acquired by underwriters
through competitive bidding were l e s s favorably received, however, and
large portions of two of these were s t i l l undistributed a t the month-end.
As a r e s u l t , the volume of s e c u r i t i e s s t i l l in underwriting syndicate
increased from a n e g l i g i b l e amount at the beginning of the month to about
$60 million a t the month-end.
Despite the large volume of new financing, average y i e l d s on
new corporate bond offerings sold l a s t month, adjusted to an Aaa-basis,
were 6 basis points l e s s than i n March and, at b.17 per cent, the lowest
since July 1958. Yields on seasoned bonds also declined, with those
on Aaa-rated i s s u e s decreasing 7 basis points to It.31 per cent at the
month-end.
Bond s a l e s fcy State and l o c a l governments amounted to $850
million during April, over one-third more than i n March and one-sixth


above the average f o r April of the two previous years. Dealer bidding


f o r new i s s u e s continued to be f a i r l y aggressive. While r e t a i l s a l e s
of new i s s u e s were generally somewhat better than a month e a r l i e r , they
continued s e l e c t i v e / dealers' advertised inventories of unsold s e c u r i t i e s
increased about $^0 million during the month t o almost
mill ion,
only s l i g h t l y l e s s than the record $$62 million of l a t e February „
Yields on a l l maturities of municipal bonds declined further
during the month, with y i e l d s on 20-year, Aaa-rated bonds declining 8
basis points to 2„93 per cent, the lowest since August 1958.
Common stock prices dropped substantially further in April
in f a i r l y moderate trading. Prices, as measured by Standard and Poor's
composite index of 500 stocks, declined 6 per cent, closing the month
a t ££02h'f this was one-tenth below the December 12 higjh. The price
decline was particularly sharp l a t e in the month, following a brief
r a l l y . Trading averaged 3 . 3 m i l l i o n shares a day, 0 . 2 million more than
in March, but much l e s s than l a s t spring.
