THE NSHAWA DAILY TIMES, - THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 1930 PAGE ELEVEN Stock Market J Prices Mark«. Summary by Canadian Press Toronto, Feb. 6.--~A heavy over night accumulation of orders' brought a brisk tone to the open- ing activities on the Toronto Stock: Exchange today, 'Nickel and Nor- anda were in demand while Brit- {sh-American Oil and Massey-Har- ris were being sold freely. Early transactions were very irregular with the two mine issues moving into new high ground. Supporters of Nickel and Noranda soon found, however, that public participation in the upward move was on the wane and their efforts turned to profitstaking with the result that both stocks beat a hasty retreat and led the list into lower trading tei- ritory. Nickel reached 41 before eleven o'clock and at noon was being of- fered freely at 89%, off & from the preceding close, Noranda ®rossed the $44 mark on early transac. tions, midday prices at 43, off 4. B.A. Oil was afflicted by interna- tional pressufe co-incident with capital changes announced last night, while other oil stocks, such as Imperial, International Petro- Jeum and McColl-Frontenac were weakened by the general belief in a sharp cut in retail oil prices across the continent. al Petroleum, it is sald, faces a cut of 25 cents per barrel on crude oil | present profit to the company rang- ing between $1.50 and §2 per bar- rel. B.A. Oil opened down a full point to 45 and was liquidated down to a new low level of 43, off almost 3 points from the preceding close. Inside huying appeared at this point and midday prices were tirmer at $44 but the stock contin- ued to come out in substantial blocks. The announcement made last night included a 2 for 1 split- up of the shares, bringing the out- standing shares to a total of ap- proximately 2,600,000 shares, and an increased dividend at a rezular vate of $1.60 per year on the per- cent stock, compared with $1 and a 50 cent bonus paid last year. STANDARD MINING EXCHANGE Toronto, Feb. 6.--~Hughes continued its spectacular ascent on the Stand- ard Mining Exchange this morning and reached new high ground for the current movement at 6.70.
