Corporad and municipal bond markets. This week, like last,
"Corporations are Expected to offer only $10 million in new securities.
In contrast, State and local government demands for funds will increase
substantially. On the calendar for this week are bonds totaling $148
million, up sharply from last week's unusually small volume, but about
15 per cent below the average weekly offerings during the past year.

S
JL/ 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, r/ revised.
As investors reacted to the lack of new corporate bond issues
last week and the prospect that the calendar for the remainder of the
year will be very light, the only issue still bound by syndicate
restrictions at the beginning of the week sold out in mid-week and
moved to a small premium in secondary market trading. Moreover, a
number of other recently offered bonds traded actively in the secondary
market with prices on these issues remaining steady or moving up small
fractions.
*
In the municipal market, last week's very small supply of
new issues was easily distributed. Dealers' advertised inventories
were reduced another $46 million to the lowest level since early
April. Moderate 1 y heavy retail demand for many older issues reduced
yields slightly further.

. Stock prices. Common stock prices inched back up last week
to approach their all-time high, with the Standard and Poor's composite
index of 500 stocks closing at 85.23 on November 6. Trading volume
averaged 4.6 million shares a day, the same as in the previous week.
Bond referenda. Preliminary data on the $2.9 billion of
State and local government bond referenda submitted to voters in the
November 3 general election indicates that close to three-fourths of
the dollar volume submitted was approved. This was appreciably higher
than the 1963 authorization rate—when voters rejected a $750 million
authorization for the State of New Jersey--but somewhat below rates in
recent Presidential election years. The $2.2 billion authorized is
considerably less than the record authorizations of $3.4 billion in
1960 when California voters approved the $1.8 billion Feather River
Project. Large issues authorized this year include: $750 million for
the State of California, $275 million for the Los Angeles Flood Control
District and $200 million for the State of West Virginia. The largest
referendum rejected was for $165 million in New York State bonds to
provide for additional low-cost housing.
The following table shows the results of November general
election proposals in recent years.

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.
