Upon the start of the first few weeks of this 4th Quarter, we’ve already witnessed the single biggest one day point decline and advance in the Dow Jones Industrial Average the market has ever seen. Clearly people are very worried and some even predict financial Armageddon! In times like these most investors get carried away and run to the sidelines. We believe however there is tremendous opportunity in this current environment as long as one is disciplined, patient, and can take emotion out of the game!
Our two feature pieces in this presentation consist of contrasting today's historic market conditions to those of The Great Depression and a recap of the extreme measure the federal government has taken in recent weeks to aid the U.S. economy.
This presentation on what went on in the 3rd Quarter 2008 can be accessed two ways:
1.) Interactive Presentation – click on the link below and you will be taken to the start of the presentation which lasts approximately 10 minutes. You will need audio and preferably a broadband Internet connection to experience the Interactive version as it was meant to be experienced. There is a menu at the top of this presentation which you will see that consists of PLAY, PAUSE, EMAIL US, OPTIONS, and HELP. These functions do the following:
* PLAY – click on this to continue playing after pausing the presentation.
* PAUSE – click on this to pause the presentation at any time.
* EMAIL US – click on this to send us your feedback or comments regarding the presentation. You will be taken to another webpage where you can fill in your information, add comments and send this to us by clicking on the Submit button.
* OPTIONS – scroll over this and you will see three sections you can go to directly – Market Review, Feature Articles, and Also Available… If you would like to jump to a certain section of the presentation, you can do so here by just clicking on that specific section.

2.) Written Presentation – click on the link below and you will be taken to the pdf document of the presentation. You can either read this on screen in the box window or print it out in hard copy to read at your discretion (NOTE: You must click on the Print button icon (top toolbar – 2nd to left button) in the box window to print the pdf document). The Written Presentation covers everything that is talked about in the Interactive Presentation minus the audio, graphics, etc. If you are pressed on time and would rather just read the presentation, then this option may appeal more to you.
