Van Alstyne, Noel Co. doesn't find it surprising that some consolidation is occurring after the broad recover from the low point of early March. "The fact that the current reaction docs not bring in any following is. impressive, indicating to us that the market's recovery movement hasn't run its full course, the firm said.

says he doesn't think that mutual fund investors are discouraged by the stock market's decline since the first of the year. "Mutual funds simply cannot be classified as securities per se," he says. "Fund shareholders generally tend to regard them as a way of life, a long-term component of financial planning certainly not as trading accou.its., "As a result, they stayed with their investments Juring the prolonged 1957-58 market drop.
