Reduced net profits on top of increased sales volume must be accepted as a caution signal. Corporate Earnings If the consumer starts to resist price increases, it paints a beclouded picture for corporate earnings. Obviously management must find ways to restrict increasing operating costs.

That may spell out curtailing planned expansion. The next few months will tell the story. Corporate dividend distributions this year may total 10 per cent ahead of 1955, and set a new high. That's so because net earnings are still, but only slightly, above last year. But the rate of dividend increases lately has been declining.

It is noted, too, that many companies are voting stock dividends in lieu of cash. Two years ago such action was good news for stockholders because profits were being ploughed back into expansion. But today such dividend action is accepted as an admission the firm is short of cash; that net profits aren as good as expected. Bank investment managers take the stand that the shadow of 'corporate profit doubt hangs heavy over the stock market and will be reflected in securities prices until the situation is In retailing circles there are those who believe consumers expect higher prices, and will pay the increases. As is, they see no resistance.

But others say that because of the ample supply of consumer goods, price resistance will show up soon after the holiday spending spree. The Big Question Here's another attitude heard at the recent American Finance Conference annual meeting: People know that wage and raw materials' costs have gone higher, and expect to pay higher prices for what they want, and can do it because they are now earning more than ever before. In other words, all added operating costs should be passed on to consumers, and consumers should accept them. But the big question is: Will consumers absorb price rises? The buying temper of a consumer is hard to understand. Numerous merchants caution that markups from here on may price products out of the market except for necessities.

There Is mounting evidence corporate profits are leveling or declining. Adjusted to seasonal factors, total corporate earnings didn't do well in the first nine months of this year. This despite the large increases in personal income and consumption.
