1. We remain uncomfortable with the current stock market risk levels.
Outside of possibly accumulating more gold and alternative energy
shares, we are in a do nothing investing mode for the remainder of
February.
Many believe that the Fed will continue lifting the federal-funds rate
until at least 3.75 percent, putting it within the "neutral" range that
neither stimulates nor inhibits economic growth. On March 22, the Fed
should go to 2.75%, with the April 8 Solar Eclipse within
activation. This is the time period when we expect to see long
bond act the way most analysts expected long ago. If so, the fall out
in the real estate and stock market should be interesting.
TRADERS: We
will be selling/shorting more than buying as long as Dow 10850, SPX
1216 and NASDAQ 2190 essentially 2005 hold as a 2005 market top.
INVESTORS:
We still remain patient and in a globally opportunistic mode.

While the internal Stock Market astrology is mixed, the external risk
potential is high
2. "The 'InvestWrite' competition challenges students to apply critical
thinking skills to real-world savings and investment situations," said
Dr. Lisa A. Donnini, director of education for The Stock
Market Game Program.
HW: I believe the following top three winners’ picks of the 2nd
"InvestWrite" stock market student essay competition are as good as any
Wall Street analyst:
Grades 4-5 Division: Luke Massaro, Shore Road Intermediate, Bellmore,
N.Y., whose love of his grandmother's homemade cheesecake, with a main
ingredient of Philadelphia Cream Cheese, led to an understanding of
Kraft's many popular brands. "There are a few reasons why I would buy
stock in Kraft Foods. One reason is that Kraft owns a variety of
products that are favorites to many people, including me."
Grades 6-8 Division: James Newby, St. Patrick School, Dallas, Texas,
researched a nanotechnology stock, Altair, as the ideal candidate for a
long-term investment holding: "Nanotechnology, in general, is a fairly
new field of engineering. It has begun a scientific revolution that
will impact the entire world and bolster our understanding on the
fundamentals of nature. Once nanotechnology becomes a more mature
industry, companies such as Altair will no doubt grow radically in size
and profits."
Grades 9-12 Division: Andrew Basham, Brunswick School, Greenwich,
Conn., considered how Lockheed Martin Corporation, a domestic industry
leader in homeland security, would benefit from the new emphasis on
updating the post-Cold War military. "With a leadership role in the
industry not easily affected by the woes of the domestic economy,
Lockheed is capitalizing on increased government spending on the
twenty-first century technologies."
3. Over the last six months, at least 135 people have been gunned down
in drug-related mob killings in Naples. In one incident, men dressed in
police uniforms stopped three gang members, tied their hands behind
their backs and shot them execution-style. In another, a woman was shot
point-blank and her body stuffed in the trunk of a car that was then
set on fire. The source of the bloodshed is the "camorra," the
Neapolitan version of the Mafia. "The problem is the skyrocketing
increase in income," said Amato Lamberti, a sociology professor at the
University of Naples. "Construction, banking, transportation, retail
sales -- the camorra is in all of them.”
It has been sometime since we have looked to Italy to invest. Clearly,
the MIBTEL Index is pricey above 24,500. Perhaps upon a retest of
20,000 as was the case twice in 2004; it is worth a serious look.
But buy what? Alitalia? No. Fiat? No. Parmalat? No. There
is Luxottica (LUX), which is in one of our favored sectors of
healthcare products and services. Additionally, we might research
the Camorra favored sector list of construction and banking by watching
the ADRS of Italcementi (ITALY) and Sanaolo IMI (IMI).
4. "It does appear that Mr. Greenspan thinks long rates should be
higher than they currently are. And that is a warning to bond
investors."
Joel Naroff, president, Naroff Economic Advisors
HW: Yes, beware in March as rates hit our magic 2.75 number.
“We expect consumer spending to expand this year at about the same rate
as last year.''
Robert Mellman, economist, J.P. Morgan Securities
HW: We don’t
“The economy is clearly not as strong as it was last year. You need
faster profits growth for the market to go much higher.''
Pascal Lebois, manager, U.S. equities fund ING Luxembourg SA
HW: So that would imply that markets are near their top. We agree.

6. READER: I haven't heard you talk about UAMA lately, have you changed
your opinion on it?
HW: VOIP is one of our favorite 2005 sectors. I believe UAMA’s
teliphone product is very good and recommend its use, but their
marketing is sorely lacking. They are not taking advantage of their
technical lead as much as we had first anticipated (and expected to
help with). They seem to be doing well enough locally, but my interest
in this microcap was for a possible home run, which seems increasingly
less likely. As we parted ways with management in not the
friendliest of terms, we cannot be objective. That being said,
unless there is a fundamental change, I am personally recommending
selling/stopping on any upcoming good news rally. Should that not occur
within 2-4 months, I would probably just exit and try greener VOIP
pastures elsewhere.
HERE WE TALK ABOUT AFUND CLIENTS
READER: where does this [TNXT] stop? It looks real good [technically].
HW: I don’t know, but its horoscope is excellent for February. I would
wait until the end of the month and then recheck the charts.
.31, .38 and .50 are likely R1, R2 and R3 short term. However, longer
term, the fundamental potential seems far higher.
READER: Why are you saying in your newsletter that February 13, 2004 at
2:25PM is the horoscope date for TNXT when its website reference shows
February 17, 2004 as the reincorporation date?
HW: My source is a photocopy of the Delaware sealed articles of
incorporation.
READER: If they [IHI] lost the case against the GE re the Robotics-
could it bankrupt them or is this nonsense?
HW: This is utter nonsense. First of all, IHI is very likely to
win this case. But whether just for costs plus, or if proper
damages will be awarded, I don’t know. However, a settlement
payment is probably years off. If they didn't win, that is NOT
what IHI is basing their future on, but it could be nice icing on the
cake for long term IHI shareholders.
