Dear Editor:
Can you explain why the Blank Company's common stock went from 100 to 21,
when you assured me that purchase of it at 100 was advisable?
Mabel B. S.
Answer: Mabel, if the stock had moved up to 179 instead of down to 21, you
would have been pleased, wouldn't you? So, why spend your time worrying
about 79 points now? I think this stock should not go lower unless the
supply exceeds the demand.
Dear Ed:
Can you explain for me the meaning of the term ex-dividend?
George Q.
Answer: Yes, we can.
Dear Editor:
I own one share of Fayque Gold Mines, Ltd., common, for which I paid a
broker $10.00 commission. It is now selling for $11.00 per share. Shall I
take my profit or hold it for, say, $12.00?
Josephine L.
Answer: Sell your stock, put the original $10.00 away in a safe deposit
vault and buy General Motors with the balance.
Editor:
You suggested that I buy your service a year ago. Do you still feel that I
should do this?
Amy G.
Answer: Send envelope and $7.00 in stamps for confidential reply.
Dear Ed:
What is a put-and-call broker and oblige.
Francis F.
Answer: A put-and-call broker is a broker that puts you in a stock and
then calls you up when it rises in price. I never heard of an oblige.
Editor dear:
I am an elderly lady living in the Old Ladies' Home. My husband left me
$1000.00, of which I have managed to save $54.13. It is a question as to
whether I should go into the market or not. What shall I do?
Mrs. B.
Answer: I would wait until just before the big break, Mrs. B. A
self-addressed envelope will bring you a calendar under plain wrapper.
