“I am pleased to report another profitable quarter,” said Mr. Stockcoach, President, janitor, and tea boy at Stockcoach, Inc. “This marks the ninth consecutive quarter that I have outperformed the S&P 500, Nasdaq, and the benchmark Russell 2000 index.”

Mr. Stockcoach continued, “At the beginning of this year, I had targeted to increase profits by 5 to 10 percent over last year’s levels. However, the past six months have been a difficult time for smallcap stocks, and particularly for the sort of microcap stocks that represent the bulk of my portfolio. Although I have been able outperform the markets, the rate of appreciation of my portfolio has fallen well below historic norms. Consequently, I now expect 2006 profits to be 15 to 25 percent below 2005 levels. While this is disappointing, I remain confident that my basic investment strategy can deliver higher profits in the years ahead for all my shareholders (me, myself, and I).
