NOTE 3 - ACQUISITIONS

     On February 4, 2000, the Company conducted a reorganization with The
National Capital Companies, Inc., an Oklahoma Corporation ("NCC").  Pursuant to
the terms of a Securities Purchase and Plan or Reorganization between the
Company and the stockholders of NCC, the Company acquired all of the outstanding
capital stock of NCC in exchange for the issuance of 4,000,000 shares common
stock to the former stockholders of NCC.  Because the stockholders of NCC owned
approximately 61.5% of the outstanding shares of the common stock of the Company
after giving effect to the Reorganization, the acquisition of NCC was considered
a reverse merger, and the Company has been deemed the acquirer for accounting
purposes.  As such, the equity of NCC has been carried forward as the equity of
the Company.

     On March 9, 2000, the Company acquired AISCO Holdings, LTD., an Illinois
corporation ("AISCO").  AISCO is a full-service financial services company
including brokerage, trading, investment advisory and insurance.  Pursuant to
the Securities Purchase agreement, the Company acquired approximately eighty
percent (80%) of AISCO in exchange for approximately 818,000 shares of the
Company.  The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting and is intended to qualify as a tax-free reorganization under IRC
(S)368(a)(1)(B).  The fair value of purchase consideration of approximately
$5,725,000 has been allocated to tangible and identifiable intangible assets
acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values.  The
excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over assets acquired and
liabilities assumed has been allocated to goodwill and is being amortized on a
straight-line basis over ten (10) years.

     The following pro forma results of operations give effect to these
acquisitions as if the transactions had occurred January 1, 2000:

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis
---------------------------------------------

Business of the Registrant.

  The Company and its subsidiaries operate as a investment firm in four primary
niches of the securities industry including brokerage services, investment
banking and corporate finance, trading and market making, and money management.
In addition, we have operations involved in securities research, commodities

  Through our subsidiaries, we provide the following financial services:

  Brokerage Services.  We provide brokerage services to individuals and
institutions.  As a securities broker, we act as an agent for our customers in
the purchase and sale of common and preferred stocks, options and debt
securities traded on the nationally recognized exchanges or in the over-the-
counter ("OTC") market.  Major portions of our revenues are derived from
commissions from customers on these transactions.  We also provide investment

transactions for institutional investors such as banks, mutual funds, insurance
companies, hedge funds, money managers and pension and profit sharing plans.

  Investment Banking, Corporate Finance and Merchant Banking.  We raise capital
through public and private offerings of securities for corporations that are

We also provide our clients with advisory services designed to assist them with
their evaluation of potential merger and acquisition partners and assist them
with the due diligence process, the negotiation and structure of the transaction
and the development of corporate strategies for growth and investment.  We offer
merchant banking services, providing both debt and equity financing to micro-cap
and small-cap companies.  We identify and evaluate investment opportunities,
then structure direct equity investments or mezzanine financing primarily with
public companies.

300 accounts of wealthy individuals, funds, institutions, foundations,
endowments, and municipalities, five open-end mutual funds and two hedge funds.
We currently manage in excess of $125 million in investments.

Results of Operations.

          On March 9, 2000, the Company acquired all of the outstanding Class A
stock of AISCO Holdings, Ltd. ("AISCO") which represented approximately 82% of
the outstanding common stock of AISCO.  Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement
and plan of Reorganization dated March 9, 2000 by and among the Company and the
Class A stockholders of AISCO, the Company issued 818,090 shares of its common
stock to the former Class A stockholders of AISCO in exchange for all of the
outstanding Class A stock of AISCO.  The operations of AISCO since the date of
its acquisition by the Company are included in the Company's condensed
consolidated financial statements contained in this report.

    We have experienced and expect to continue to experience, fluctuations in
quarterly operating results due to a variety of factors, including the recent
AISCO acquisition, the value of our market-making securities positions, the
volume of our market-making activities, volatility in the securities markets,
overhead and other expenses, the addition or loss of sales and trading
professionals, regulatory changes, the amount and timing of capital and general
economic conditions.  If demand for our services declines and we are unable to
adjust our cost structure on a timely basis, our operating results could be
materially and adversely affected.  We have experienced and expect to continue
to experience, some seasonality in our business.

    It is also expected that the upcoming change to decimalization in the NASDAQ
trading market will further narrow the spread between "bid" and "ask" prices on
the stocks in which the Company's broker-dealer subsidiaries makes markets and
may adversely affect profitability per ticket.  Management believes, however
that these subsidiaries will be able to capitalize on the increased volatility
and liquidity in the markets that decimalization may bring about.  In addition,
with the increase in the number of brokers and traders, the Company anticipates
being able to further capitalize on its other financial services such as
investment banking and money management.

    Due to all of the foregoing factors, period-to-period comparisons of our
revenues and operating results are not necessarily meaningful and such
comparisons cannot be relied upon as indicators of future performance.

    Total Net Revenues.  Revenues from continuing operations of the Company
increased by $4,837,000, or 211%, for the three months ended June 30, 2000, as
compared with the quarter ended June 30, 1999, and increased $9,367,000, or
226%, for the six months ended June 30, 2000 as compared with the six months
ended June 30, 1999.  The increase in revenues is directly attributable to the
Company's acquisition of AISCO in March 2000 and Cornerstone Capital Management
in June 1999.  Without giving effect to the AISCO acquisition and the loss on
principal transactions, the Company's revenues would have been approximately
$1,560,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to $2,290,000
for the three months ended June 30, 1999, representing a decrease of
approximately 32%.  This decrease primarily results from the decrease in the
Company's investment banking revenues.  During 1999 and through the first
quarter of 2000, the Company's investment banking revenues were at all-time
highs due to favorable economic conditions and surging venture capital infusions
into U.S. businesses, particularly within the internet and high technology
industries. The Company expects investment banking activities to increase
moderately going forward, but may not reach the record levels achieved during
1999. Principal transactions are comprised of trading gains and losses and
include both realized and unrealized gains and losses incurred by the Company on
its securities owned and are generally presented net. For the three months ended
June 30, 2000, the net loss from principal transactions was ($814,000) as
compared to $748,000 in net revenue for the equivalent period a year ago. This
decrease was directly attributable to the volatility in the U.S. equity markets
and the corresponding reduction in stock prices of many U.S. equities during the
second quarter of 2000. While the Company still holds many of the same
securities it owned at the close of the first quarter of 2000, the decline in
stock prices has resulted in a lower portfolio valuation leading to unrealized
losses which has adversely impacted the Company's overall net revenues. Total
revenue for AISCO for the three months ended June 30, 2000 was approximately
$6,375,000.

    Total Expenses.  Expenses of the Company increased by $7,574,000, or 470%,
for the three months ended June 30, 2000, as compared with the quarter ended
June 30, 1999, and increased $11,797,000 or 469%, for the six months ended June
30, 2000, as compared with the six months ended June 30, 1999.  Overall, this
increase is due primarily to the Company's acquisition of AISCO in March 2000.
Operational changes in expenses are set forth below.

                                       10
<PAGE>

    Commissions, compensation and benefits increased by $6,605,000, or 585%, and
$9,650,000, or 575% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000,
respectively, as compared to the equivalent periods in the prior year.  The
increases in this expense were primarily attributable to the rise in
compensation to the Company's traders and brokers as a result of the increase in
net trading revenue in terms of overall ticket and share volume.  With the AISCO
acquisition, the Company added over 200 brokers and established branch managers
and traders in various states including Arizona, Colorado, Michigan, and Texas.
As a result, not only did the Company's commissions increase, but also its base
compensation structure as well.  Without giving effect to the AISCO acquisition,
the Company's commissions, compensation and benefits would have been
approximately $1,000,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to
$1,130,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999, representing a decrease of
approximately 12%.  This decrease is primarily attributable to the corresponding
decrease in commission and investment banking revenues offset by an increase in
employees and an addition of a business line during the second quarter of 2000.
During the second quarter of 2000, the Company established a mortgage banking
division with a four person management team and added three brokerage service
branch managers and two money managers in which approximately $250,000 of
compensation was paid without adding any revenues to the Company's top line.
Revenues from the mortgage banking division are expected to commence during the
fourth quarter of this year.  Total commissions, compensation and benefits for
AISCO for the three months ended June 30, 2000 was approximately $5,800,000.
Overall, the total number of employees and commissioned brokers increased to
approximately 300 as of June 30, 2000 from approximately 55 as of June 30, 1999.
The Company's acquisitions have necessitated the need to retain and attract
qualified personnel to handle the significant increase in trade volume and
technological requirements that the Company has experienced over the last year.

    General and administrative expenses increased by $967,000, or 200%, and
$2,143,000, or 256% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000,
respectively, as compared with the same periods in the previous year.  As a
percentage of revenue, general and administrative expenses were 20% and 22% for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2000, respectively, as compared to 21%
and 20% for the same periods in the prior year.  The increases in these expenses
were primarily due to the Company's acquisition of AISCO. As compared to the
previous year with offices in two (2) states, the Company now operates offices
within six (6) states throughout the country. In addition, the Company began
taking a charge for goodwill related to its acquisitions in the amount of
approximately $190,000 per quarter. Goodwill represents the excess of cost over
the net assets acquired and is being amortized over ten (10) years. Other
general and administrative expenses, including clearing and related brokerage
charges, increased as a result of the overall ticket volume and rates with the
Company's various clearing brokers. With its acquisitions, the Company expects
to negotiate more favorable ticket rates with its contracted clearing brokers
during the third and fourth quarters. The remainder of the increases is due to
the significant growth in the volume of business and the increase in staff size.

    Net Income (Loss).  Net income (Loss) decreased by $1,816,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 2000 as compared with the three months ended June 30, 1999
and decreased $1,868,000 for six months ended June 30, 2000 as compared with the
six months ended June 30, 1999. Without giving effect to the AISCO acquisition,
the Company's net loss would have been approximately ($1,060,000) for the
quarter ended June 30, 2000 as compared to net income of $477,000 for the same
period a year ago. This decrease is due primarily to the principal transaction
portfolio loss as a result of the significant volatility and downturn in the
U.S. equity markets during the second quarter of 2000.

                                       11

Liquidity and Financial Condition.

    The Company's tangible assets are liquid, but subject to market price
fluctuation with more than 36% consisting of cash or assets convertible into
cash (principally, securities positions, receivables from brokers, and cash).
To date, the Company's operations have generally been financed by internally
generated funds.

    The Company historically has generated revenues from its investment banking
services, from commissions on trades in which it acts as a broker and from
profits on trades in which it acts as a principal.  The Company's revenues and
financial condition are substantially dependent on factors outside its control,
including the level of activity in the national securities markets, particularly
the Nasdaq National Market and the OTC Bulletin Board, as well as the strength
of the overall economy.  From the record levels reached by the stock markets in
terms of both price and volume during the first quarter of 2000, the Company has
seen a decline in its consolidated revenues, consolidated total assets, and
consolidated net income (Loss) in the second quarter of 2000 as a result of the
overall decline in both price and trading volume on the Nasdaq and the OTC
Bulletin Board.

    As of June 30, 2000, the Company had approximately $500,000 of working
capital, including $2,936,000 in cash, cash equivalents and securities, as
compared to approximately $285,000 of working capital as of December 31, 1999.
The Company believes that its existing working capital is sufficient to finance
its current level of operations.  However, the Company believes that it requires
a minimum of $500,000 in additional working capital to finance the planned
growth of its existing operations.  In August 2000, the Company commenced the
private placement sale of up to $5,000,000 of shares of its common stock,
however the Company has no commitments from any outside sources to purchase its
securities, and there can be no assurance that additional financing will be
available when needed on terms favorable to the Company or at all.

    During 2000, the Company has continued to make significant investments to
fund its future growth and increase stockholder value.  These included the
acquisition of AISCO and expenditures of over $150,000 for computer and
technological upgrades and other property.

    The Company's broker-dealer subsidiaries are subject to the SEC's minimum
net capital requirement which is designed to measure the general financial
soundness and liquidity of broker-dealers.  As of June 30, 2000, these
subsidiaries had approximately $1,040,000 in excess of the SEC required minimum
net capital.  The net capital rule imposes financial restrictions upon the
Company's broker-dealer subsidiaries which are more severe than those imposed on
most other businesses.

    Cash flows from operations will vary on a daily basis as the Company's
portfolio of marketable securities changes.  The Company's ability to convert
marketable securities owned into cash is determined by the depth of the market
and the size of the Company's securities positions in relation to the market as
a whole.  The portfolio mix also affects the regulatory capital requirements
imposed on the Company's broker-dealer subsidiaries, which directly affects the
amount of funds available for operating, investing and financing activities.
