Keith: received this e-mail alert from Microcap Investor today regarding EvisionUSA.com. EVIS is a company opening a website around April 1 which allows Asian traders to trade in American stocks. They have also plans to go globally. Can you comment on the differences and similarities between CPT's and their concept and the possible implications it could have for CPT's launch. I am aware that you probably do not have enough information regarding EVIS to do a thorough comparison, but your comments and excellent research are very much appreciated.
Good trading

EVIS ALERT
One company that we have been watching for quite some time is
EvisionUSA.com. The company has already been featured by several ?hot
pick? sites in the past, but we bring it to your attention now because in
our opinion, there are compelling reasons to own EVIS as a timing play.
Whereas we do not have a complete report at this time, we wanted our
readers to have an opportunity to consider EVIS before more appreciation
occurs.
We believe EVIS is an excellent timing play because one of their
subsidiaries, American Frontier Financial Corporation, a domestic
brokerage, is nearing completion of their new online trading website,
amffc.com. The site will enable international trading in
securities for Asian investors interested in purchasing domestic
securities, with a probable expansion into world markets. Many expect the
launch to occur on or before April 1, 2000.
In addition to this forthcoming event, we are excited about the wide
ranging plans Evision has for capitalizing on the communications and
commerce revolution occurring in Asia.

Finally, the stock recently had a huge run from roughly 5/8 to 5.75 this
past year after announcing many initiatives in Asia, and benefitting from
daytraders. When traders tired of EVIS, the stock was punished, dropping
all the way to under 2 dollars/share. We believe that this consolidation
was almost inevitable, and believe that EVIS has formed a new base from
which to make gains. As the debut of the online trading site nears, we
expect to see continued interest in EVIS, along with increased volume.
Thus we wanted to alert our readers to this excellent timing play.
EVIS Price: 2.78
