To the Shareholders and Trustees of
Orbitex Focus 30 Fund

In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of the
Orbitex Focus 30 Fund (the "Fund") for the year ended October 31, 1999,
we considered its internal control, including control activities for
safeguarding securities, in order to determine our auditing procedures
for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements and
to comply with the requirements of Form N-SAR, not to provide assurance on
internal control.

The management of the Fund is responsible for establishing and maintaining
internal control.  In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and
judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and
related costs of controls.  Generally, controls that are relevant to an
audit pertain to the entity's objective of preparing financial statements
for external purposes that are fairly presented in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.  Those controls include the safeguarding
of assets against unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition.

Because of inherent limitations in internal control, errors or fraud may
occur and not be detected.  Also, projection of any evaluation of internal
control to future periods is subject to the risk that it may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the effectiveness of
the design and operation may deteriorate.

Our consideration of internal control would not necessarily disclose all
matters in internal control that might be material weaknesses under
standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants.  A material weakness is a condition in which the design
or operation of one or more of the internal control components does
not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that misstatements caused
by error or fraud in amounts that would be material in relation to the
financial statements being audited may occur and not be detected within
a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their
assigned functions.  However, we noted no matters involving internal
control and its operation, including controls for safeguarding securities,
that we consider to be material weaknesses as defined above as of
October 31, 1999.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of management
and the Trustees of the Fund and the Securities and Exchange Commission
and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than
these specified parties.




On February 8, 1999 and on June 2, 1999, suits were filed in the
Thirteenth Judicial Circuit Court, Hillsborough County, Florida,
against Steven H. Adler, a former director and officer of ASM, Vector,
the ASM Index 30 Fund, and, in the case of the latter suit, Mutual Funds
Service Co., the former administrator, fund accountant, and transfer
agent, alleging that Mr. Adler wrongfully diverted monies intended for
or previously invested in the ASM Index 30 Fund.  The relief sought
is the recovery of the investment amounts and interest thereon, additional
general, consequential and incidental damages, legal costs and
disbursements, and declaratory and injunctive relief to preclude the Fund
dissipation of its assets.  The Fund succeeded to the obligations of ASM
with respect to these suits, including obligations of ASM to indemnify its
officers and directors for which no officers and directors' insurance
policy was in effect.  At the present time, the liability of the Fund, if
any, is not readily determinable.


As of the close of business on July 9, 1999, the Fund, a newly created
portfolio, acquired all the net assets of ASM pursuant to a plan of
reorganization approved by the shareholders of ASM on July 2, 1999.  The
acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange, the details of which
are outlined in the following schedule:

                          At Close of Business July 9, 1999
                          ASM          Focus 30        Merged Assets
Net Assets            $19,898,870	        -0-          $19,898,870

Shares Outstanding      874,960           -0-            874,960

Net Asset Value Per Share$ 22.74          -0-            $22.74

The financial statements of the Fund reflect the historical financial
results of ASM prior to the reorganization.
