CAPITAL MARKET DEVELOPMENTS
IN THE UNITED STATES
luding Review of Savings Flows in October)

borate and municipal bond markets: The volume of corporate
CftdtetiriHyJfinai|cing this week ($160 million) will be sharply larger than
weeks and about one-third greater than the weekly average over
the past year. Most of this week's total will be accounted for by two
investment grade public utility bond issues--a $65 million Pacific Gas
and Electric Company offering and a $40 million Niagara Mohawk Power
Corporation issue--the first such issues to readh the market since late
October. The supply of new State and local government bonds ($162 million),
on the other hand, will be at about the average weekly level for the past
year.

1/ Federal Reserve estimates based on published reports of issues sold
and scheduled for offering; corporate rights offerings are included
as of the date subscription rights expire.
Responding to the increase in the discount rates in both the
United Kingdom and the United States at the beginning of the week, yields
on both seasoned and recently distributed corporate bonds rose in
secondary market trading early in the week. This advance raised yield
2 basis points on seasoned, Aaa-rated issues and as much as 7 basis
points on some recently distributed issues. About mid-week, however,
the market developed a firmer tone when it became apparent that major
industrailized countries were willing tq lend the Bank of England $3
billion to aid in stabilizing the pound.
In the municipal market, yields also responded to the discount
rate actions with the yield series increasing 3-7 basis points. This
advance, however, offset only about one-half of the yield decline that
had occurred in the rally of the previous four weeks. At the lower
prices, underwriters were able to distribute about three-fourths of last
week's moderately light supply of new issues and dealers' advertised
inventories of unsold securities changed little.

FNMA Secondary Market Operations. Sales in the secondary
market by the Federal National Mortgage Association continued downward
from $1.6 million in September to a low of $.01 million in October. A
factor in the further decline in October may have been the highly
successful public distribution in that month by a group of underwriters
of $300 million of participation certificates in a pool of mortgages
held mainly by FNMA. In accordance with the Housing Act of 1964, none
of FNMA 1 s secondary market portfolios is included in this pool.
Purchases by FNMA turned sharply upward in October--to $24
million. This was the highest level since last May and reflected in
part some pick-up in acquisitions of mortgages from the Federal Housing
Administration in exchange for FHA debentures held by FNMA. Offerings
also rose--to $34.9 million.
Stock prices. In the face of last week's sterling crisis,
U.S. stock prices backed away from the high reached the previous Friday.
Closing at 85.16 on November 27, prices, as measured by Standard and
Poor's composite index of 500 stocks, had declined about one per cent
during the week and were slightly below the earlier peak reached in
mid-October. However, this decline occurred in reduced: trading volume
which averaged 4.7 million shares a day, off 0.9 million shares from
the average for the previous week.
October savings flows. Net inflows of saving's capital to savings
and loan associations during October totalei $784 million, about the same
as the comparable 1963 period, according to preliminary data. Because
of sampling problems which affected the insured savings and loan association
series, it is not certain the year-over-year increase in these flows during
the past five months has actually leveled off. Some evidence that the net
savings gain in October has been understated is provided by the United
States
Savings and Loan League whose estimate is $76 million greater than
FRASER
the one above.

Estimate includes data for all insured associations (accounting for
roughly 96 per cent of the savings capital for all associations) that
report to the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation, plus an
allowance for non-insured associations estimated by the Federal Reserve.

At the same time, growth in regular deposits at mutual savings
banks continued substantial. While the $220 million inflow was 18 per
cent greater than a year earlier, the rate of gain has subsided since
the summer months when special compaigns at several New York banks
aided inflow.

*

Difference in reoffering yields on bonds sold to U.S. citizens and those sold to
foreign citizens reflects an upward adjustment of 9.19 per cent in the price paid by
U.S. citizens. This premium was collected by the underwriters in accordance with the
provisions of the new Interest Equalization Tax* This tax is collected—under a scale
of rates which rises with maturity--when U.S. lenders buy new security offerings from
in certain designated "developed" countries.

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 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 data a placement is reported. *--Included in table for first time.
