                MESSAGE FROM THE FUND PRESIDENT/PORTFOLIO MANAGER
                -------------------------------------------------

ANALYSTS STOCK FUND
- -------------------

This report covers the period August 1, 1998 through July 31, 1999. The total
return of the Stock Fund from August 1, 1998 through July 31, 1999 was 14.36%.
This compares to a 14.01% rate of return for the Dow Jones World-Global Index
(DJWG). Since inception of the Analysts Stock Fund (August 25, 1993), the
average annual total return of the Analysts Stock Fund is 14.04% verses 12.02%
for the DJWG.

The one-year returns of the Analysts Stock Fund and the DJWG were almost the
same. This period was highlighted by the Federal Reserve cutting interest rates
75 basis points and then raising rates in May 1999 by 25 basis points and in
August 1999 by another 25 basis points. Stocks rallied from October 1998 through
July 1999 with the S&P 500 hitting an all time high of 1418 on July 16.
Long-term interest rates have been increasing since October 1998 taking the
30-year Treasury bond from 4.75% in October 1998 to 6.20% in June 1999. I
believe the rise in long term rates is due primarily to the world economic
recovery and heavy issuance of corporate debt. The Analysts Stock Fund has
maintained a discipline of blending large and small capitalization stocks, value
and growth stocks, and foreign and domestic stocks. The Fund has also
diversified in many sectors but has slightly over weighted the technology
sector. Large capitalization stocks have outperformed all other groups of stocks
during this period and since the Analysts Stock Fund is a blend of large and
small capitalization stocks it has underperformed in this regard. Since
technology stocks have also outperformed non-technology stocks during this
period, the overweighting of this sector has helped the Analysts Stock Fund stay
ahead of the DJWG despite the presence of medium and small capitalization stocks
in the Analysts Stock Fund portfolio. The strategy of the Analysts Stock Fund
will continue to be diversity between Large Capitalization, Small
Capitalization, International, Real Estate Investment Trusts and Natural
Resources Stocks, blending value and growth styles of investing. Our research
indicates that an allocation between these broad groups has provided the highest
risk adjusted returns.

The international economic crisis that started in Thailand in 1997 has now ended
and a world recovery is underway. Economists are predicting growth for Asia for
the upcoming year, which will increase demand for goods and services. Oil prices
have recovered in response to increasing demand and OPEC's production cuts. The
Fed has responded by tightening the Fed Funds rate by 50 basis points in June
and August 1999. The U.S. economy appears to be in good shape with low
unemployment, steady growth, and stable prices. The Fed is concerned about the
tight labor markets and high capacity utilization rates. If the economy grows
too fast, shortages will develop in the labor markets and production will not
keep up with demand. This could lead to an inflationary environment disrupting
financial markets. Long-term interest rates should remain in a range for the
next 12 months between 5.5% to 6.5% as the economy slows in response to the Fed
tightening. In this stable interest rate and stable price environment stocks
should do well although not as well as we have seen in the past several years.
Large capitalization stocks are trading at record high levels relative to their
earnings per share while medium and small capitalization stocks are trading much
lower relative to their earnings per share. I believe the medium and small
capitalization stocks should outperform the large capitalization stocks over the
next 12 months causing the major indexes to show lower returns than the public
has come to expect. This is because large capitalization stocks dominate the
major indexes. Therefore my outlook is positive, especially for the foreign and
small/medium capitalization sectors.

ANALYSTS FIXED INCOME FUND
- --------------------------

The total return of the Fixed Income Fund for the period August 1, 1998 through
July 31, 1999 was -1.77%. This compares to a 4.16% rate of return for the Lehman
Intermediate T-Bond Index (LITB) over the same period. Since inception of the
Analysts Fixed Income Fund (August 25, 1993), the average annual return of the
Analysts Fixed Income Fund was 3.58% verses 5.43% for the Lehman Intermediate
T-Bond Index.

The Analysts Fixed Income Fund is diversified between Government Bonds,
Corporate Bonds, Mortgage Backed Securities, Preferred Stocks, Global Bond Funds
and Real Estate Investment Trusts. The Fund's strategy is to remain broadly
diversified to reduce our exposure in any one area and reduce our volatility.
The global economic crisis caused a flight to quality of global capital. This
flight to quality took money out of domestic corporate, foreign corporate, and
sovereign debt and put money into U.S. Treasury Bonds. Long-term interest rates
have been increasing since October 1998 taking the 30-year Treasury bond from
4.75% in October 1998 to 6.20% in June 1999. In addition there has been a larger
than normal issuance of corporate debt, increasing supply and the spreads
relative to treasury debt. The result of this has been continued
underperformance of most types of bonds relative to treasury bonds. Since the
Analysts Fixed Income Fund is a blend of Government Bonds, Corporate Bonds,
Mortgage Backed Securities, Preferred Stocks, Global Bond Funds and Real Estate
Investment Trusts, the Fund has underperformed the pure treasury index. The Fund
compares favorably to the Merrill Lynch Corporate 10 year Index, which declined
1.76% during this one-year period. The Analysts Fixed Income Fund will continue
to remain diversified between corporate debt, foreign debt, mortgage backed
debt, preferred stocks, REIT's, and treasury bonds.

ANALYSTS FIXED INCOME FUND (CONTINUED)
- --------------------------------------

The international economic crisis that started in Thailand in 1997 has now ended
and a world recovery is underway. Economists are predicting growth for Asia for
the upcoming year, which will increase demand for goods and services. Oil prices
have recovered in response to increasing demand and OPEC's production cuts. The
Fed has responded by tightening the Fed Funds rate by 50 basis points in June
and August 1999. The U.S. economy is in good shape with low unemployment, steady
growth, and stable prices. The Fed is concerned about the tight labor markets
and high capacity utilization rates. If the economy grows too fast, shortages
will develop in the labor markets and production will not keep up with demand.
This could lead to an inflationary environment disrupting financial markets.
Long-term interest rates should remain in a range for the next 12 months between
5.5% to 6.5% as the economy slows in response to the Fed tightening. In this
stable interest rate and stable price environment fixed income investments
should do well. The balanced federal budget will also work to keep interest
rates low as the supply of Treasury Bonds decreases. The more federal debt that
is retired with budget surpluses the more downward pressure there will be on
interest rates. If the government chooses to spend the surplus, whether through
more spending or tax cuts, the more likely we will have higher interest rates.
If the government can continue fiscal discipline and reduce the national debt,
and the Fed can keep prices stable, interest rates should stay stable for the
next 12 months.

ANALYSTS INTERNET.FUND
- ----------------------

This report covers the period May 4, 1999 (inception of the Fund) through July
31, 1999. The total return of the internet.fund from May 4, 1999 (inception of
the Fund) through July 31, 1999 was 3.52%. This compares to a -17.58% rate of
return for the Dow Jones Internet Composite Index (DJIC) for the same period.
The total annualized return of the internet.fund from inception (May 4, 1999)
through July 31, 1999 was 14.77%.

The internet stocks peaked in April 1999 after an incredible advance sparked by
the decrease in short term interest rates last fall and the high level of
interest in the internet. The April 13, 1999 release of the consumer price index
reflected a higher than expected increase of .7% This set in motion a Fed
tightening bias and a correction in the internet stocks. Internet stocks such as
AOL, Amazon.com, and Yahoo are down 46%, 55%, and 48% respectively at the end of
July from their historical highs. The Analysts internet.fund is invested in a
broad range of internet stocks covering the internet service providers,
networkers, portals, hardware manufacturers, software developers, content
providers, financial service providers, e-tailers, and entertainment companies.
This diversification and a blended approach of growth and value, large and small
capitalization, and foreign and domestic styles have given the internet.fund
better performance than the DJIC.

The international economic crisis that started in Thailand in 1997 has now ended
and a world recovery is underway. Economists are predicting growth for Asia for
the upcoming year, which will increase demand for goods and services. Oil prices
have recovered in response to increasing demand and OPEC's production cuts. The
Fed has responded by tightening the Fed Funds rate by 50 basis points in June
and August 1999. The U.S. economy appears to be in good shape with low
unemployment, steady growth, and stable prices. The Fed is concerned about the
tight labor markets and high capacity utilization rates. If the economy grows
too fast, shortages will develop in the labor markets and production will not
keep up with demand. This could lead to an inflationary environment disrupting
financial markets. Long-term interest rates should remain in a range for the
next 12 months between 5.5% to 6.5% as the economy slows in response to the Fed
tightening. In this stable interest rate and stable price environment,
technology stocks should do well as new technologies are created and
applications for the internet are expanded. Some internet advances we are seeing
are voice communications over the internet, high speed access over cable,
computerless access to the internet, digital music and movie downloads, and an
increase of products available through e-tailing. The telecommunication industry
will consolidate as cable, telephone and TV become part of one monthly package.
The internet will improve the efficiency of the economy by reducing overhead of
retailers (eliminating "bricks and mortar"), reducing the middle layer of
distribution, and increasing the information available to the public. I am very
bullish on the internet and related technologies not only for the companies
directly involved, but for the entire U.S. economy. I believe that internet
technologies will be the engine that drives the economy, creating new
efficiencies, raising productivity, and raising the U.S. standard of living.
Therefore my outlook is positive and although the internet stocks are extremely
volatile, a diversified portfolio spread across many sectors will do very well
long term.

                           INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT
                           ---------------------------



To the Shareholders and
Board of Trustees
Analysts Investment Trust


We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of the
Analysts Investment Trust (comprising, respectively, the Stock Fund, the Fixed
Income Fund, and the internet.fund), including the schedules of investments in
securities as of July 31, 1999, the related statements of operations of the
Stock Fund and the Fixed Income Fund for the year then ended and the
internet.fund for the period from inception (May 4, 1999) through July 31, 1999,
the statements of changes in net assets of the Stock Fund and the Fixed Income
Fund for each of the two years in the period then ended and the internet.fund
for the period from inception (May 4, 1999) through July 31, 1999, and financial
highlights of the Stock Fund and the Fixed Income Fund for each of the five
years in the period then ended and the internet.fund for the period from
inception (May 4, 1999) through July 31, 1999. These financial statements and
financial highlights are the responsibility of the Trust's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of July
31, 1999, by correspondence with the custodian. An audit also includes assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each
of the respective portfolios constituting the Analysts Investment Trust as of
July 31, 1999, the results of operations of the Stock Fund and the Fixed Income
Fund for the year then ended and the internet.fund for the period from inception
(May 4, 1999) through July 31, 1999, the changes in net assets of the Stock Fund
and the Fixed Income Fund for each of the two years in the period then ended and
the internet.fund for the period from inception (May 4, 1999) through July 31,
1999, and the financial highlights of the Stock Fund and the Fixed Income Fund
for each of the five years in the period then ended and the internet.fund for
the period from inception (May 4, 1999) through July 31, 1999 in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



1.     SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION

       Analysts Investment Trust (Trust) is registered under the Investment
       Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, as a no-load, diversified, open end
       management investment company. The Trust was established as an Ohio
       Business Trust under a Declaration of Trust dated May 28, 1993. The
       Declaration of Trust, as amended, permits the Trustees to issue an
       unlimited number of shares of the Analysts Stock Fund (Stock Fund),
       Analysts Fixed Income Fund (Fixed Income Fund), and the Analysts
       internet.fund (internet.fund) (The Funds). The Stock Fund's investment
       objective is to provide long term capital appreciation. The Fixed Income
       Fund's investment objective is to provide a high level of income over the
       long term consistent with preservation of capital. The internet.fund's
       objective is to provide long term growth through capital appreciation.
       The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the
       Trust:

       SECURITIES VALUATION - Equity securities, options and commodities listed
       on exchanges or on the NASDAQ are valued at the last sale price as of the
       close of business on the day the securities are being valued. Lacking a
       last sale price, a security is generally valued at its last bid price,
       except when, in Equity Analysts Inc.'s (The Advisor) opinion, the last
       bid price does not accurately reflect the current value of the security.
       All other securities for which over-the-counter market quotations are
       readily available are valued at their bid price. When market quotations
       are not readily available, when the Advisor determines the last bid price
       does not accurately reflect the current value, or when restricted
       securities are being valued, such securities are valued as determined in
       good faith by the Advisor, subject to review of the Board of Trustees.
       Fixed income securities (including mortgage related and asset backed and
       receivable backed securities) may be valued on the basis of prices
       furnished by a pricing service when the Advisor believes such prices
       accurately reflect the fair value of such securities. A pricing service
       utilizes electronic data processing techniques to determine prices for
       normal institutional-size trading units of debt securities without regard
       to sale or bid prices. When prices are not readily available from a
       pricing service, or when restricted or illiquid securities are being
       valued, securities are valued at fair value as determined in good faith
       by the Advisor, subject to review by the Board of Trustees. Short term
       investments in fixed income securities with maturities of less than 60
       days when acquired, or which subsequently are within 60 days of maturity,
       are valued by using the amortized cost method of valuation. Repurchase
       agreements are valued at cost which approximates fair value. It is the
       policy of the Funds that their custodian take possession of the
       underlying collateral securities. Collateral is marked to market daily to
       ensure that the fair value of the underlying assets equals or exceeds the
       value of the seller's repurchase obligation. In the event of a bankruptcy
       or another default of the seller of a repurchase agreement, a Fund could
       experience both delays in liquidating the underlying securities and
       losses. The loss would equal the amount by which the carrying value of
       the repurchase agreement(s) exceeded the proceeds received in liquidation
       of the underlying collateral securities. To minimize the possibility of
       loss, the Funds enter into repurchase agreements only with institutions
       deemed to be creditworthy by the Advisor, including the bank that serves
       as custodian for the Funds.

       OPTIONS ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES - When a put or call option is written, an
       amount equal to the premium received is recorded as an asset and an
       equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently
       marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option
       written at which time an unrealized gain or loss is recognized. The
       current fair value of a traded option contract is the last sale price or,
       in the absence of a last sale price, the mean between the last bid and
       ask price, or in the absence of either of these two prices, fair value as
       determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees. When a written option
       contract expires or is terminated (closing purchase transaction), a
       realized gain (or realized loss if the cost of the closing purchase
       transaction exceeds the premium received when the option was sold) is
       recorded without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on the underlying
       security, and the liability related to such option is extinguished. When
       an option is exercised by the holder, a gain or loss from the underlying
       security is realized and the proceeds from such a sale are increased by
       the premium originally received. When a put or call option is written,
       the Funds must maintain a margin account with its custodian or the broker
       with a maintenance margin determined on a daily basis as the value of the
       underlying investment fluctuates.

       SHARE VALUATION - The net asset value per share is calculated daily by
       dividing the total value of each Fund's investments and other assets,
       less liabilities, by the total number of shares outstanding.

       INVESTMENT INCOME AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS - Interest income is
       accrued as earned. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
       Distributions to shareholders arising from net investment income are
       declared and it is the intention that such distributions be paid
       quarterly. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed to
       shareholders at least once per year.

                                                                              15

1.     SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION (CONTINUED)

       SECURITY TRANSACTIONS - Security transactions are accounted for on a
       trade date basis, which is the date the order to buy or sell is executed.
       Securities sold are valued on a specific identification basis.

       USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity
       with generally accepted accounting principles requires the Advisor to
       make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these
       financial statements and accompanying notes. The Advisor believes that
       the estimates utilized in preparing these financial statements are
       reasonable and prudent.
       Actual results could differ from these estimates.

       FEDERAL INCOME TAXES - It is each Fund's policy to comply with the
       special provisions of the Internal Revenue Code available to regulated
       investment companies. As provided therein, in any fiscal year in which a
       Fund so qualifies, and distributes at least 90% of its taxable net
       income, the Fund (but not its shareholders) will be relieved of federal
       income tax on the income distributed. Accordingly, no provision for
       income taxes is made. In order to avoid imposition of the excise tax
       created by the Tax Reform Act of 1986 as amended by the Revenue Act of
       1987, it is each Fund's intention to declare as dividends in each
       calendar year at least 98% of its net investment income (earned during
       the calendar year) and 98% of its realized capital gains (earned during
       the twelve months ended October 31 of the calendar year) plus
       undistributed amounts from prior years.

2.     INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

       Investment transactions in the Stock Fund and the Fixed Income Fund for
       the year ended July 31, 1999 and in the internet.fund for the period from
       inception (May 4, 1999) through July 31, 1999, are as follows:
