price-movements of the stock exchange values given by the bankers’ magazine.
For the past ten years (1897-1906) the Bankers’ Magazine has published the aggregate values of 387 representative securities, divided into groups. These
groups are here arranged, as far as this was possible, on the principle of Geographical Distribution, into two sections, the top section representing the British
Stocks, the bottom section the Stocks of other countries. The value at the end of each year has been taken as the means of determining the direction of the
zig-zag price-movement lines of each group.
