THE RUBBER MARKET.
Although, says the Evening Standard, the price of rabber has given way not far short of 3. st. from the highest Bgures touched, buyers have lately boon none too ready to lay in supplies at the very considerable reduction notified, and the exigencies of demand are the occasion of the utmost interest at present as indicating the probable course of prices alike of crude rubber and of rubber shares in the future. Memwhile the general eltuntion con. tinues more or less unsettled with regard to the raw material, and it may so continue for in BAS! some little time yot, although it
conyorsant with Mining.lane trade conditions that the worst of the reactionary movement in prices as been already on from the wonderful resistance already experienced. This view would spot to shown in share circles to the depressing tactics pursued without informission which have bosa apparent again this work, The langour of the market is undoubtedly partly due to such tactics restraining would-be
investors from adding to their holdings except on the cheapest terms, but the mere fact that share operations have, in spite of adverse infaences, delftad into insignificant proportions compared with the enormous activity of some weeks ago tends to show that the amount of actual stock coming on the market is of but little consequence, Bhare values have now, it is contended by not a few, relapsed to a level which is in many instances not altogether con sistent with the percentage of yield already ensured according to the reports already issued by Reveral of the more reputed companies of the Middle East, while the time is not far distant
when their matorislly anhanced prospects for the current year should have to be taken into consideration. The conservativo nature of the dividend distribation of the Rubber Plantation Investment Trust was made the sub. jeet of rather pessimistic commont, although the dividend could have been increased sub- stantially, if one may judge from the fact that about £30,000 was carried forward out of a total realised profit of over £64,000, The pro- liminary divident of 40. per share, equal to 20 per cent for the period ended March 31, is under the circumstances by no means to be scoffed at. In the more out-of-the-war ahares there are no doubt not a few whose merits are apt to be overlooked during a period of unsettle ment such as the prosent, and at least one of these has bear the subject of good buying lately.
