SEMI ANNUAL REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS
February 24,1998
Dear Shareholder:
The Fund had a 6.32% total return for the six months ended
December 31,1998. This return compares favorably with that of
the Standard and Poor's 500 Index of 7.04% and the Russell 3000
of 5.78%.
This performance was accomplished in spite of the first default
of a government in many years - by Russia. It had a dramatic but
negative effect on stock markets all over the world. In August
and again in October we witnessed the selling of securities
regardless of price. This selling was done by unregulated hedge
funds which received margin calls on their holdings forcing them
to sell, depressing the markets. These hedge funds received
redemption requests by their investors which further lowered
the prices of stocks in general.
The Manager of the Fund stood fast and did not participate in
this panic selling, thereby saving the Fund from realizing
losses. From the low of October 8,1998 to the high of December
31,1998 the Fund gained 48.45%.
Going forward the Manager anticipates the markets return to
normal conditions and to participate in bargains generated by
the debacle of 1998.
Sincerely,
Aristides Matsis
President and
Portfolio Manager
