Greetings from the Stock Exchange, London:

the nation’s market place

 

The scene on “the floor of the House” appears confused;

but in fact the informed grouping represents various “markets”-

for Government stocks, industrial shares, oil shares, etc.-

which occupy traditional positions well known to all Members.

The Stock Exchange deals in about 10,000 different securities;

and, because it is a free and active market,

attracts much overseas business to London.
