ITEM 5.  Other Events

On August 2, 2000,  the Company  entered  into a Letter of Intent to negotiate a
stock  merger  with  Berthel  Fisher &  Company,  ("Berthel  Fisher")  a private
financial services holding company which would result in Berthel Fisher becoming
public company.

The  Letter of  Intent  provides  for the  issuance  of  additional  common  and
preferred shares of Southwest Capital, which would result in Berthel controlling
approximately 75% of the voting shares. The proposed  transaction is expected to
close by September  30, 2000;  however,  it remains  subject to certain  closing
conditions and no assurance can be given that the proposed  transaction  will be
consummated.

Berthel  Fisher  offers full service  retail  brokerage and  investment  banking
operations   concentrated  primarily  in  the  Midwest  with  approximately  140
registered representatives in 85 locations.

SIGNATURES  Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
the  Registrant  has duly  caused  this report to be signed on its behalf by the
undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
