5.     The Company owns 741,360 shares of Edgar Online, Inc. ("EOL"), an
Internet-based supplier of business, financial and competitive intelligence
derived from U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission data.  EOL completed a
public offering of its common stock in May 1999.  During the nine months ended
September 30, 2000, the Company sold 69,212 shares of EOL, realizing a gain of
$637,628.  The Company carries this investment at $3,521,460, the market value
at September 30, 2000.  The difference between the cost and fair market value of
these securities, net of deferred taxes, is classified as accumulated other
comprehensive income as a component of stockholders' equity.

6.     The Company has a software development agreement with Third Millennium
Technology, Inc. ("TMT"), a corporation controlled by a former director of the
Company.  Fees paid to TMT consist of a declining scale fee per user of the
Company's myTrack service and certain additional fees are payable in connection
with revenues from online trading. Such fees amounted to $132,976 and $70,217
for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.  In
addition, the Company paid a termination fee of $40,000 during the second
quarter of 2000.  Under the termination agreement, monthly fees continue through
June 2001.

Until August 2000, the Company offered online trading through its myTrack
service utilizing Track Securities Corporation ("TSC") as its broker-dealer. TSC
is a broker-dealer owned and operated by a director of the Company. The Company
licensed its myTrack trading system to a subsidiary of TSC. The Company received
$2.25 per trade pursuant to the agreement, which aggregated $2,279,878 in 2000.
In addition, TSC pays a share of the marketing and advertising costs incurred by
the Company, which aggregated $775,304 in 2000.  At September 30, 2000, the
amount due from TSC of $880,187 is included in other assets and was paid in
October, 2000. Further, the director has a five-year consulting agreement with
the Company pursuant to which he is to be paid an annual fee of the greater of
$50,000 or 5% of the after-tax earnings, if any, from trading activities.  The
fee was $37,500 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. The Company
obtained its own broker-dealer license and after registration in all states
terminated the license agreement with TSC.

7.     In May 2000, the Company acquired approximately 2% of iAnalyst, Inc.
("IA") and Silicon Summit Technologies Inc. ("SST"), both privately held
companies, in exchange for an aggregate of 326,280 shares of the Company's
common stock.  The Company registered these shares.  IA provides the individual
investor Internet-based access to independent equity research analysts.  SST is
a leading provider of e-finance solutions and services for B4B electronic
securities trading. Further, in May 2000, the Company's preliminary agreements
to acquire 10% of MainStreetIPO.com and FlexTrader.com were terminated.

8.     Since obtaining its broker-dealer license and registration in all of the
states, the Company earns commissions as an introducing broker for the
transactions of its customers.  Commissions and related clearing expenses are
recorded on a trade-date basis as securities transactions occur.  The Company's
customer securities activities are transacted on either a cash or margin basis.
In margin transactions, the clearing brokers extend credit to the Company's
customers, subject to various regulatory margin requirements, collateralized by
cash and securities in the customers' accounts.  However, the Company is
required to either obtain additional collateral or to sell the customer's
position if such collateral is not forthcoming.  The Company is responsible for
any losses on such margin loans, and has agreed to indemnify its clearing broker
for losses that the clearing broker may sustain from the customer accounts
introduced by the Company.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General

     The Company provides real-time financial market data, news, fundamental
research, charting and analytical services to institutional and individual
investors through dedicated telecommunication lines and the Internet.  The
Company offers online trading through its myTrack Internet-based personal
investment service. myTrack is an Internet-based software application that is
not restricted by the limitations of an HTML browser-based static system offered
by virtually all of its well-known competitors.  myTrack delivers a continuous
dynamic stream of live market data and investors' real-time online trading
activity.


Results  of  Operations

Three  Months  ended  September  30,  2000  and  1999

     Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 were
$14,871,050 and $11,518,014, respectively, an increase of 29%.  The revenue
increase in 2000 is due to myTrack's online trading and market data services.
The Company obtained its own broker-dealer license and its registration in all
of the states by August 2000.  Prior thereto, trading revenues include only
revenues from the licensing of its trading system, rather than a full amount of
commissions paid by customers, which represented approximately $1,993,000 of the
total increase.

     Direct operating costs were $8,668,155 for the three months ended September
30, 2000 and $6,558,762 for the similar period in 1999. Direct operating costs
as a percentage of revenues were 58% in 2000 and 57% in 1999. Direct operating
costs include direct payroll, direct telecommunication costs, computer supplies,
depreciation and equipment lease expense and the amortization of software
development costs.  Since August 2000 when the Company commenced recording the
full commissions from customers, direct costs also include costs of clearing,
back office payroll and other direct broker-dealer expenses.

     Selling and administrative expenses were $4,676,494 and $4,778,949 in the
2000 and 1999 periods, respectively.  The decrease in 2000 compared to 1999 was
principally due to the reclassification of certain payroll and related expenses
for myTrack's online trading services after receiving its broker-dealer license
and state registrations.  Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of
revenues was 31% in 2000 and 41% in 1999 due principally to the higher revenues
in 2000.

     Marketing and advertising costs decreased significantly in 2000 to $400,325
from $2,567,850 in 1999.  The decrease in 2000 was primarily due to the
Company's decision to reduce television advertising for its online trading in
the third quarter, reduced agency fees and reduced marketing for certain other
products.

     In the third quarter of 2000, the Company realized a net gain of $429,645
from the sale of marketable securities, principally from Innodata Corporation.
Interest expense increased to $90,759 from $31,272 in the third quarter of 2000
compared to 1999 due to increased borrowings.

     As a result of the above mentioned factors, the Company realized income
before equity in net income from an affiliate of $1,464,962 in the 2000 period
compared to a loss of $(2,418,819) in 1999.

     The equity in net income from an affiliate was $176,000 and $79,000 in 2000
and 1999, respectively.


Nine Months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999

     Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 were
$40,794,294 and $34,835,084, respectively, an increase of 17%.  The revenue
increase in 2000 is due principally to myTrack's online trading and market data
services.  The Company obtained its own broker-dealer license and its
registration in all of the states by August 2000.  Prior thereto, trading
revenues include only revenues from the licensing of its trading system, rather
than a full amount of commissions paid by customers.

     Direct operating costs were $23,014,199 for the first nine months of 2000
and $20,618,258 for the similar period in 1999, an increase of 12%.  Since
August 2000 when the Company commenced recording the full commissions from
customers, direct costs include costs of clearing, back office payroll and other
direct broker-dealer expenses.  Direct operating costs as a percentage of
revenues were 56% in 2000 and 59% in 1999.

     Selling and administrative expenses were $16,952,037 and $13,886,889 in the
2000 and 1999 periods, respectively, an increase of 22%.  Selling and
administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues was 42% in 2000 and 40% in
1999.  The dollar and percentage increase in 2000 compared to 1999 was
principally due to increased payroll and related expenses for myTrack's online
trading and market data services.  Online trading was first introduced in the
second quarter of 1999.

     Marketing and advertising costs increased significantly in 2000 to
$4,761,871 from $3,776,967 in 1999.  These costs were incurred in connection
with the Company's myTrack online trading and market data systems.  The level of
expenditures in the third quarter of 2000 was substantially below the
expenditures in the first half of 2000.  Such reduced amounts are expected to
continue in the fourth quarter.

     In 1999, the Company relocated certain of its personnel to other office
space and realized a gain on the landlord buy-out of the lease of approximately
$350,000.

     In 2000, the Company realized a gain of approximately $912,488 on the sale
of certain shares of Edgar Online, Inc., Innodata Corporation and other
miscellaneous marketable securities.

     As a result of the above mentioned factors, the Company realized a loss
before equity in net income from an affiliate of $(3,241,411) in the 2000 period
compared to a loss of $(3,316,271) in 1999.

     The equity in net income from an affiliate was $261,000 and $255,000 in
2000 and 1999, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     During the nine months ended September 30, 2000 cash used by operating
activities was $1,638,175 compared to cash used in operating activities of
$490,359 in the nine months ended September 30, 1999. The increase in 2000 was
primarily due to the greater loss from operations in that period, after
excluding a gain on marketable securities.  Cash flows used in investing
activities was $360,443 and $819,715 for the nine months ended September 30,
2000 and 1999, respectively.  Cash flows from investing activities in 2000
included net proceeds from the sale of marketable securities of $443,313.  Cash
flows used in financing activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2000
was $860,596 compared to cash flow from financing activities of $4,262,149 in
the 1999 period. The 1999 period included proceeds from the sale of the
Company's common stock of $4,976,258.

     The Company has a line of credit with a bank. The line is collateralized by
the assets of the Company and is guaranteed by its principal stockholder.
Interest is charged at 1.75% above the bank's prime rate and is due on demand.
The Company may borrow up to 80% of eligible accounts receivable and is required
to maintain a compensating balance of 10% of the outstanding loans.  The line of
credit is sufficient for the Company's present cash requirements.  The Company
reduced its advertising costs in the third quarter and continues to do so in the
fourth quarter and may seek additional financing and or dispose of certain of
its marketable securities to support increased advertising costs in the future.
There are no major capital expenditures anticipated beyond the normal
replacement of equipment and additional equipment to meet customer requirements.

Inflation and Seasonality

     To date, inflation has not had a significant impact on the Company's
operations. The Company's revenues are not affected by seasonality.

     Disclosures in this Form 10-Q contain certain forward-looking statements,
including without limitation, statements concerning the Company's operations,
economic performance and financial condition.  These forward-looking statements
are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words "believe," "expect," "anticipate" and
other similar expressions generally identify forward-looking statements. Readers
are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements,
which speak only as of their dates. These forward-looking statements are based
largely on the Company's current expectations and are subject to a number of
risks and uncertainties, including without limitation, changes in external
market factors, changes in the Company's business or growth strategy or an
inability to execute its strategy due to changes in its industry or the economy
generally, the emergence of new or growing competitors, various other
competitive factors and other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to
time in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Actual results could differ materially from the results referred to in the
forward-looking statements. In light of these risks and uncertainties, there can
be no assurance that the results referred to in the forward-looking statements
contained in this Form 10-Q will in fact occur.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

     The Company is exposed to interest rate change market risk with respect to
its credit facility with a financial institution which is priced based on the
prime rate of interest. At September 30, 2000, $2,096,164 was outstanding under
the credit facility. Changes in the prime interest rate during fiscal 2000 will
have a positive or negative effect on the Company's interest expense. Such
exposure will increase accordingly should the Company maintain higher levels of
