223-2240 Next to K-mart U.I.JIS LTQ 229-2299 9 to p.m. News for investors Courtesy of Interstate Securities Corp. A little-publicized indicator of stock market trends insider selling is getting more attention these days because it seems to rspell an early end to the bull market. Insiders are corporate officers and directors. Trades made by must be reported to the Securities Exchange Commis-fsion by the tenth of the month after a trade is made.

Because of their positions within a company, insiders are regarded by some as being more in touch with actual business conditions than other market participants. Insider trades are published weekly by Stock Research Corp. of i New York. They believe it is normal for selling by insiders to exceed buying because they are usually repaying bank loans, leaving a company, or financing college educations for their children. The tax treatment of stock acquired by exercising options also generates some insider selling.

The normal relationship of sales to purchases is about two to one. Since June, however, sales have been exceeding purchases by more than four to one, and one week the ratio was more than six to one. The eight-week average ratio has also worsened, reaching more than four to one last month for the first time since 1971. The intensity of insider selling currently is greater than was seen before market declines in October of 1978 and 1979 and in the declines of early 1980. Insiders tend to move early, well before an obvious change in market trend, and that is what is making some people nervous now.

When the aggregate action of insiders is so one-sided, it tends eventually to be right. Another factor creating some nervousness is appearance of selling by insiders at companies that have not reported any insider selling in a number of years. Some people believe that insider buying is more significant than insider selling. The sale of stock by an insider is usually a small i percentage of a person's holdings. If an insider felt his company i was going to do very well and the stock would benefit, he would buy heavily.

Insider selling is at an extreme right now, seemingly indicating that corporate officers disagree with the contention the recession is over. Whether that turns out to be the case only time will tell. In the meantime, insider transactions are only one indicator. Good i values are still to be found in the stock market.

Moreland accused the AHA of "reckless disregard for safety" and asked more than $4 million. Mrs. Moreland 's 4-year-old daughter, Vermika, sustained severe head injuries and burns in the Gate City explosion. In a suit filed Friday, the mother of 5 year-old Yolanda Wilcox asked $6.1 million in damages. The Wilcox child suffered severe burns in the blast.

The three suits were filed in Fulton County Superior Court. The two injured children remain in Grady Memorial Hospital. Testifying before a Georgia legislative committee on Monday, McDonald said national standards for boiler safety and inspections should be written into state law. He was asked to appear before the state Senate Committee on Industry, Labor and Tourism as a result of the explosion. Committee Chairman Don Ballard, Covington, said the Senate panel may introduce legislation to stiffen state laws on boiler safety.

Forty-six states now require that boilers meet standards established by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, but Georgia is not one of them, according to McDonald.
