Already there are in- quiries for several good local stocks, and although I do not go So far as to predict a ir boom' I venture to say that prices in general will be very much higher in December than at the moment.

The future. 19 undoubtedly bright, and those who know the history of the slump in our local market will no doubt sympathise with the brokers for the dark days which they have gone through. Rises have been observed in almost all good stocks, and few, If any, have actually gone down.

Sharebrokers whom I have seen during the week told me they have done quite well in local stocks, and the fever for Ewos has given way, for the time being at least, business in a aumber of local shares. Ewas looked like mono- polising business in the earlier part of st week, but the attractive prices offered found many sellers and rates could not be maintained. There is a suggestion that Ewos will touch Tia 30, but.. I do not advise investors to bank on this. If Ewos are due for a rise it will be very grailuak, but should it take a sudden jump" and confound the experts, I am sure many sellers can be found. Holders of Ewos

would do well to remember that the Shanghai market is hardly in- fluenced by Ewos position in Hong Kong. Rather is it the opposite.
