(Continued from P*fre Six'*
reaching the boiling stage in the
renewed excitement over gold
mining stocks. One gold stock on
the N. Y. Exchange has arisen
almost 300 per cent from its lowest!
price of 1930. On other exchanges
where gold mining shares are
more numerous, advances o,' ICO
per cent or more in pri e h ve
been very common. H me:take
and Alaska-Juneau have been sen
sations on the big board. Spon
sors for the present gold stock
I boom proclaim that such stocks
rise in the final stage of bear
markets.They also point to the
gold shortage throughout the
I world. Gold stocks have a lure
i greater, perhaps, than any other
! class of security. The ready mar
j ket for the metal with the un
i wavering price guaranteed by all
! principal countries of the world,
I the preciousness of the metal, all
' combine to prove the possibilities
I existent in gold mining securities.
New bonanzas with their stagger
ingly huge profits, serve to whet
the appetites of the investing pub
lic.
So great a public speculation ap
parently is anticipated that at
least a half dozen brokerage
houses dealing in gold mining
shares have been rumored of late
to be planning offices in New
York. Hundreds of gold mining
stocks are listed on the Western
and Canadian exchanges. It is
also rumored from London that an
investment trust to consist en
tirely of South African gold min
ing shares, is under contempla
tion.
The slump in business in indus- 1
trial stocks and bonds of the East
has caused brokers to look to the
gold issues of the West for a part
of this growing investment de
mand.
