Security financing.
The volume of public security financing
this week wilT~&e--tftoderately larger than last week's seasonally light
total as municipal bond financing is scheduled to increase sharply.
The $40 million Consumer Power Company bond offering accounts for the
bulk of the corporate total, while most of the municipal volume consists
of the $75 million Commonwealth of Massachusetts and $50 million
Pennsylvania General State Authority issues.

Security yields. The corporate new issue yield series rose
to 4.46 per cent last week, 9 basis points above the summer low and
within 7 basis points of the 2-1/2 year high reached in early May.
The extent of this increase may be somewhat overstated since the
week's only relevant new issue--the $40 million Southern California
Gas Company offering--was reoffered at a yield level 3 basis points
above those being quoted on comparably rated recent offerings in
the secondary market. The new issue was 80 per cent sold within two
days. Yields on most other high-grade bonds and notes also rose,
while money market rates showed mixed changes.

FNMA secondary market operations. Sales in the secondary
mortgage market by the Federal National Mortgage Association turned
up somewhat in July. The July total of $12.6 million about matched
the high for this year reached in April, but it was more than threefifths below a year earlier even though sales at that time were
already declining sharply from their earlier peak.
Purchases by FNMA in July totaled $5.5 million, and remained
quite low by most previous standards. Offerings, at $8.4 million,
were little changed from the reduced July level.
In accordance with provisions incorporated in the Housing
Act of 1964, signed by the President on September 2, FNMA will now
be permitted to guarantee and sell "participations" to the general
public in a pool of mortgages in which the United States has an
interest. Proceeds from sales of such participations would be treated
as administrative budget receipts.
Stock prices. Common stock prices recovered part of their
August losses last week in somewhat more active trading. Prices, as
measured by Standard and Poor's composite index of 500 stocks, rose
one per cent to close at 82.76 on September 4, but were still 1-1/2
per cent below their all-time high reached around mid-July. Trading
volume averaged 4.3 million shares a day, up 0.7 million shares from
the average for the previous week.
Capital markets in August. New capital security financing by
corporations probably totaled $550 million in August. This was down
three-tenths from the previous month and one-eighth less than in August
1963. Large public offerings included $125 million in non-convertible
bonds and a $17 million convertible bond issue (the first commercial
bank rights offering of convertible capital notes).
The tone of the corporate bond market weakened somewhat during
August. By the last week of the month, yields on new corporate bond
offerings (adjusted to an Aaa basis) averaged 4.40 per cent, three
basis points above the stable level which had generally prevailed since
early July. Moreover, although several negotiated issues were quickly
distributed at attractive yields, issues acquired by underwriters at
competitive bidding were more closely priced and moved slowly. With a
substantially larger September supply in prospect and including a




-3-

H. 14

number of medium size utility issues up for bidding,--syndicate price
restrictions were terminated on six issues with unsold balances.
These issues were subsequently quoted in the secondary market at prices
which provided yields of two to five basis points higher than the
original reoffering yields. As a result of these actions,unsold
syndicate balances had fallentonearly $20 million at the month-end.
State and local governments sold $750 million in bonds during
August, one-sixth less than in the previous month but about 6 per cent
more than in August 1963. The $314 million Columbia Storage Power
Exchange issue accounted for a large share of this total; this negotiated
offering had been widely anticipated and was quickly distributed with
many buyers receiving only a partial allocation. The issue quickly
moved to a premium in the secondary market. Although yields on seasoned
municipal bonds changed little during the month, dealers were reported
to be making slight price concessions throughout the month to move part
of their large inventories of unsold securities. Advertised inventories
were reduced from a near-record $725 million at the start of the month
to around $620 million at the month-end.
Common stock prices fluctuated within a narrow range during
August on seasonally reduced trading volume. Prices, as measured by
Standard and Poor's composite index of 500 stocks, closed at 81.99
on August 31, one per cent less than at the end of July and 2-1/2 per
cent below the all-time high reached around mid-July. Trading volume
averaged 3.9 million shares a day, down 0.8 million shares from the
average for July.
Estimated September security financing. Security financing
for new capital by both corporations and State and local governments is
expected to be in larger volume this month than in August, with the increase in the former being very substantial.
New capital financing by corporations is expected to total
$950 million this month, three-fourths more than the seasonally low
August total and one-fifth more than a year earlier. Large issues
currently scheduled for offering this month amount to over $400 million.
September financing in the estimated amount would bring the total for
the third quarter to $2,300 million, almost one-tenth above the similar
period last year.
Bond sales of State and local governments will probably total
$900 million in September, up one-fifth from the revised estimate for
August and twice the amount offered a year earlier. Municipal financing
in this amount would bring the total for the quarter to $2,550 million,
a third quarter record and almost two-fifths larger than during the
corresponding period last year. ,
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 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 subseto the data a placement is reported. *-Included in table for first time.
