Corporate and municipal bond markets. Corporate borrowers
are expected to offer only $10 million worth of securities to the public
this week. Borrowing scheduled by State and local governments will fall
to $65 million, down 40 per cent from last week's relatively low level.

1/ Federal Reserve estimates based on published reports of issues solti
and scheduled for offering; corporate rights offerings are included
as of the date subscription rights expire, r/ revised.
Of the two corporate issues bound by syndicate price restrictionis
a week ago, one sold out and then went to a % point premium; the other
remains in syndicate with about 1/3 or $4 million still unsold at week's
end. As Moody's averages of yields on seasoned corporates had failed to
reflect increases in market yields several weeks ago, so the averages
also failed to register the decline in yields in the market last week.
In fact, Moody's averages of yields on high-quality (Aaa) seasoned
corporates showed on increase of 1 basis point-although observers spoke
of generally rising prices in the market spurred by active trading of
individual issues.
Last week's largest municipal issue, the New York State
housing bonds, was a quick sellout and the other new issues were about
half sold. This vigorous retail demand also helped dealers dispose of
some older issues and work down their advertised inventories of taxexempts by $125 million. Prices rose and the Moody's yield averages
on high-grade (Aaa) and lower-grade (Baa) seasoned issues declined by
1 and 2 basis points respectively.

Stock prices. Common stock prices declined moderately last
week, easing the Standard and Poor's composite index of 500 stocks to
84.86 from 85.14 on October 23. Volume of shares traded continued to
contract last week--to 4.6 million shares per day from 4.8 million in
the week ending October 23 and more than 10 per cent below the September
average.
Capital markets in October. Corporate security financing to
obtain new capital approximated $0.8 billion last month, one-fifth less
than in October 1963, but about the same as in the comparable 1962
month. Included in this total were large publicly offered issues
amounting to $187 million, $108 million in nonconvertible bonds and
$79 million in common stocks.
Largely reflecting the light new issue calendar over the
remainder of the year, average yields on new offerings of corporate
bonds (Aaa basis) edged off to 4.44 per cent early in the m o n t h — 8 basis
points below the mid-September peak. New issues offered during late
September early-October had moved very slowly at retail and when the
last new issue of the month was priced to yield an adjusted 4.46 per
.cent, underwriters released their substantial unsold balances from
syndicate price restrictions. These issues initially fell in price
in the secondary market raising yields 2-7 basis points from their
original offering levels. Late in the month, however, their quoted
prices recovered enough to offset most of the previous loss. The
Last competitive issue offered sold out at its original offering price,
and at month-end, dealers' inventories still bound by syndicate
restrictions were nominal.




-3-

H. 14

Meanwhile in the municipal market, salus of State and local
government bonds to obtain new capital totaled $850 million, one-fifth
less than in October 1963. In addition, about $50 million in bonds were
sold to refund outstanding securities. Retail distribution of last
month's new supply was generally favorable. Dealers' advertised inventories of unsold securities reached $710 million near mid-month,
but increased demand later lowered the total to $577 million at monthend, off about $95 million from the end of September. Yields on Aaarated issues (Moody's) changed little on balance during the month, but
yields on lower grade issues fell moderately late in October.
In the stock market, common stock prices rose to a new alltime high of 85.24 on October 12, and fluctuated within a narrow range
below this level throughout the remainder of the month. At 84.86 on
October 30, prices were less than one-half of a per cent below their
high and one per cent above their September 30 close. Trading volume
averaged 4.8 million shares a day in October.
FNMA secondary market operations. .Sales by the Federal National
Mortgage Association in the secondary market declined further in September
to $1.6 million. This was a new low for the year, though the same as a
year earlier when sales had about completed their drop from the exceptionally
high plateau of more than $165 million obtained in the previous spring.
Purchases by FNMA also declined in September--to $7.2
million. This reflected mainly a dip—apparently temporary-zln acquisitions
of mortgages from the Federal Housing Administration in exchange for FHAdebentures held by FNMA. Offerings also declined in September--to $15.1
million.
In October, as authorized by the Housing Act of 1964, FNMA,
acting in a trustee capacity, sold $300 million of serial participation
certificates to a nationwide group of underwriters for public distribution. The certificates, which were quickly absorbed, are backed by a
pool of mortgages held by FNMA ($425 million) and the Veterans
Administration ($200 million). None of the portfolio acquired by FNMA
through its secondary market operations is included in the pool.
September savings flows. Savings flows to savings and loan
associations were at a high level in September. The net inflow of
$1,051 million during that month was 15 per cent greater than of a yearago with the tax cut apparently continuing to provide a positive
influence. (See Table I) For the first nine months of this year, such
flows lagged 6 per cent behind those of 1963 but, if recent year-overyear gains are maintained, growth in savings capital in 1964 should
approach last year's record level. Seasonally adjusted data show this
recent upswing in savings flows. Seasonally adjusted net inflows in both
August and September this year were not only appreciably larger than those
in earlier months of 1964 but also above the average for the first four
months of last year which reflected dividend rate increases at a number
of institutions at the start of that year and almost reached the January
1963 record. (See Table II).

rough approximations because major changes in
have strongly influenced the pattern of monthly

'

While net mortgage acquisitions by these associations have
continued to be quite large, the volume in most months has been smaller
than in the comparable 1963 period. This probably reflects both the
slackening in demand for mortgages and the reduced accessibility to
funds at the Federal Home Loan Banks as FHLB advances in the third
quarter rose only $47 million relative to a $753 million increase in
the corresponding 1963 months.
Savings flows to mutual savings banks also continued to
respond to the tax cut. The net increase in regular deposits during
September was a monthly high for 1964. However, the year-to-year gain
was substantially less than that achieved during the summer months when
several large New York City banks were conducting intensive compaigns
to attract funds. If deposit growth in the remaining quarter of 1964
exceeds that of the comparable 1963 period by even the September margin
of 15%, the annual increase in such deposits should exceed 1963's record
by about $1.0 billion (30%).
At the same time, savings flows: to commercial banks were heavy.
Time and savings deposits rose $1.1 billion during September, about
75 per cent above the average for the past three Septembers. Part of this
unusually large gain can probably be attributed to calendar peculiarities
(since estimates are as of last Wednesday of month) which cause the
September 1964 growth to cover a five-week period as compared to a
four-week period last year.
For the first nine months of this year, the cumulative deposit
gain amounted to $9.7 billion, 7 per cent less than in the like 1963
period and 18 per cent below the 1962 record. Moreover, the proportion
of this increase attributable to savings deposits (those deposits
most closely resembling savings capital at savings and loan associations
and regular deposits at mutual savings banks) was somewhat smaller than
last year and sharply smaller than during 1962.
Estimated security financing in November. New security
financing by both corporations and State and local governments is expected to be lower this month than in October, with the sharpest drop
coming in municipal financing.
New capital financing by corporations is expected to total
$750 million this month, down slightly from both the previous month
and November 1963. Three-fourth, of this volume is expected to be
accounted for by private placements.




-6-

H. 14

Bond sales of State and local governments for new capital
are estimated at $650 million in November, almost one-fourth less than
in the previous month and one-tenth under last November. Large issues
currently on the calendar for public offering total $254 million.
More detailed information concerning recent capital market
developments is presented in the attached exhibits.

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 this Exhibit and that shown in Exhibits I and J because
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 data a placement is reported. *—Included in table for first time.
