  8. Corning: This company had been identified in the early nineties as having potential in the pollution control business and was also under negative publicity with high profile law suits.

  12. Craigmillar Investment Process Decision-Making • Research Geographic Value: Look at the relative attractiveness of US equities vs. foreign markets.

  13. Craigmillar Investment Process Japan ETF: In May, 2001 the liquidity in global markets relative to global equity prices suggested a higher equity allocation. Japan’s equity market was receiving negative press and was selling near all time lows for the last ten years. We have been too early in this market but still believe in the fundamental relative value in Japan.

  14. Craigmillar Investment Process Decision-Making • Research Asset Value: We consider relative attractiveness of current 10-year treasury yields vs. forecasted earnings growth of equities. Allocation to Treasury issues only. 50%

  15. 30-Year Treasury: In early 2000, the S&P 500 reached a level where reasonable earnings expectations were unfavorable compared to 30-year US Treasury yields. 30% percent of the portfolio was moved at that time out of equities into 10-Year and 30-Year maturities. Recently the 30-Year US Treasury dropped below 5% during a time of better stock fundamentals and favourable fixed-income sentiment so it was sold.
