Berlin, July 5.
The week opened with the business on the share market somewhat quiet and not altogether uniform in trend. Buying orders were not numerous but as the stockholders showed no disposition to sell, most shares stood very firm although the actual turnover was small. The friendly tone was to a large-extent the outcome of the interest payments on Saturday for half a year on long-term and fixed interest securities, bondholders seeking investment for such. Mining shares and electrics were very firm.
Fixed interest securities were not lively although buyers were plentiful seeking investments for the interest just received. Munich City 4% per cent. Loan rose 1, thereby reaching parity. 5 per cent. Reichs Loan 1927 advanced a shade to 101% Communal Funding Loan; stood unchanged at 94.1/3.
