Recently, how- ever, buying waves have be- come much more frequent occurrences, hitting the market with tremendous force, only to peter out in a day or two. Then the stock market either becomes very quiet or it retreats. While most investors wel- come any kind of market rise, these explosive but short-lived rallies have put the average investor at a big disadvantage. The profess- ional money manager can respond almost at once to a change of direction; the non- professional usually can do nothinguntil the end of the day when the market is closed. Why have the North American stock markets be- haved in this erratic fashion? In part it stems from trading directed by computers'. When a com- puter program implies that a purchase should be made, many traders read this "in- formation" and respond ac- cordingly. As more of the day-to-day trading is han- dled by computer -oriented money managers, sharp moves become more com- mon. Inasmuch as many specu- lators now participate in the Crossroads—May 15, 1985—Page 5A Canada's COIVIE ONE ALL by Bruce Whitestone stock market, mob psychology, never a very stable element, is increasing in importance. Hence, moves that normally would carry on for weeks or months, in this era are com- pressed into days. - Buying panics have taken place several times over the past year. Huge upward moves occurred in August, October, and January. These quick rallies hurt the image of a sound investment medium, and also leave in- dividuals on the sidelines. The' money from individuals is needed by the brokerage community, because they pay higher commissions than institutional investors. In addition, individuals' money is neededr'if com- panies are to sell new shares to raise money for expan- sion. However, individual in- vestors have not shared fully in the stock market ad- vances over the,past year. There are other reasons too for these dramatic rallies. Trading desks blame large - arbitrage programs that have become popular with the recent development of options to buy or sell (the latter are technically called "puts") common shares. When computers find discre- pancies between the price'of ' options and the underlying stocks, farms quickly jump in to catch a profit. As the price of options increases, •arbit- rage players are attracted who draw in others. The frenzy feeds on itself. Options traders have grown since, in many cases, options are the only means open to small investors. Options to ' buy common shares cost only a fraction of the price of the actual shares. In contrast to these short- term speculators, the really professional investor takes a more serious approach: the state of the economy and its prospects serve to be the ul- timate criteria in any decision to invest or sell. The herd instinct will always be a part of stock markets. It is unfortunate, however, that so much of market trading now has only a short-term outlook. It tends to negate rthe basic philosophy of investment and capital markets. , EXT.
