The market advanced but 10 to 13 points from the quotations which prevailed just before the report was announced. This was because of con tinued aggressive opposition from bear element and b'g spot dealers and ecent sold-out bulls. But for this the price would have gone to over 13 cents. After the active options had advanced to 12.61 and 12.66 for De cember to May the bear leaders stepped in and sold and hammered the market down to 12.
