Hey Keith

I remember posting a tidbit on the future performance of the Asian markets ... I went back and found the post (18). Here is the relevant excerpt:

Sid Klein, an asian fund manager from HSBC who I had lunch with a few weeks ago, mentioned that the Asian markets were poised for huge growth in the following years, said markets already being down about 90% since 1988. This will most assuredly benefit CPT and SEG.

I came across a very interesting article (source: Paltrak) which I thought might somewhat be relevant to CPT and more particularly to SEG and its future potential of generating revenues.

It summarizes the average returns obtained in 1999 by several fund managers classified by category... To my surprise, here are the top ten :

Asia-Pacific : 78.2%
Science & Technology : 71.2%
Japan : 68.7%
Emerging markets : 54.0%
Asia ex-Japan : 50.4%
Latin America : 50.1%
US small caps : 34.0%
International : 31.9%
Worldwide : 26.1%
Canada large caps : 20.8%
Canada diversified : 20.8%

Even with the high techs flying high, Asia-Pacific finished as the top gainer with Japan finishing third. Well, I guess it isn't surprising to see Japan up there after the beating it took in the last year or so. Couldn't get any lower either way [ggggg] The nikkei 225 rebounded a 42.4%... That's what we call a bounce!

This uptrend should definitely continue as South East Asia will most probably continue to contribute to the global economy's rise, which is estimated at 4.5%.

The launching of SEG's site couldn't be better!

Kind Regards
AK
