(REUTERS) Tokyo stocks firmer =3 Tokyo stocks firmer =3 Investors were also encouraged by comments by Trade Minister Takeo Hiranuma that he asked the authorities to look into the possibility of easing regulations regarding corporate share buy-backs. Under current law, companies are allowed to buy back their own shares either for stock option schemes for employees or to cancel them. Analysts have said allowing firms to buy back and hold their own shares, to be sold to the market later or eventually cancelled, could help to absorb a share glut caused in part by banks and manufacturers stepping up their unloading of shares they hold in other firms. Companies usually intensify their unwinding of such cross-held shares towards the end of the business year in March in an effort to generate profits that will improve the performance on their books. Sales of cross-held shares weighed heavily on the banking sector on Friday, with many major banks falling despite the gains in the broader market. Mizuho Holdings Inc <8305.T> fell 3.59 percent to 645,000 yen and industry leader Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi Ltd <8315.T> dropped 1.62 percent to 1,033 yen. MORE * end of story *

Since the last infopost - we have discussed: Wooden Pallets are made from Hardwood Wooden Pallets are a leading cause of transferring bugs around the planet. Wooden Pallets are treated with poisons and chemicals. New Additions will be marked with --{Õ¿Õ} _________________________________________________________ >>>PRODUCT INFORMATION>>> Pallet Information envirokare.com Environmental Benefits envirokare.com What makes the ENVK pallet superior to hard wood pallets? The ENVK pallet has proven through extensive testing. A. ENVK's Recycled Rubber Pallets are more durable than wood pallets. B. ENVK's Recycled Rubber Pallets are lighter than wood pallets (ENVK-55 lbs. wood-75 lbs dry, up to 100 lbs wet) C.

ENVK's Recycled Rubber Pallets have a longer life span than wood pallets (ENVK- over 12 months and still in use, wood- standard wood pallet lasts 12 trips or 3 to 4 months) E. ENVK's Recycled Rubber Pallets have no exposed fasteners to cause product damage (ENVK-a single mold, wood-the American grocers ass. estimates they lose over $2 billion annually in product damage to substandard wood pallets) F. ENVK's Recycled Rubber Pallets are cost competitive with wood pallets (ENVK) $35-$45, wood- $25-$30. ENVK has huge gross margins. one ENVK pallet equal 3 to 4 wood pallets over a 12 month period. ENVK will not compete with the Macdonald’s pallet that is a one-trip pallet How much revenue each year does the pallet industry generate? North American pallet industry generates almost $6 billion annually and this is only a small percent of the overall global market. Have rubber pallets been tried before? Wasn't able to find any others Are there other types of pallets in use? Yes, plastic and metal pallets. Both of these are expensive (metal comprises 1% of the market while plastic is 3%. If ENVK captures 1% of the domestic pallet industry, not including the global market it has a minimum $100 stock. What is ENVK market strategy? ENVK is targeting a number of multinational companies in the U.S. When they start to order the pallets it will create a trickle down affect. will they be franchising plants? Because of the huge demand anticipated, revenue derived from licensing and royalties will be significant. What are the anticipated revenues? With the huge gross margins in the pallet and the high interest generated by initial tests ENVK anticipates a strong revenue stream. ENVK knows that they will not be able to supply the anticipated demand that will be created therefore ENVK is structuring a licensing program including initial licensing fee and royalties per pallet. what is the royalty schedule to ENVK? Royalty schedule to be reviewed at the end of the fourth quarter. what is their cash position and debt? Envirokare is a fully reporting company on the OTC/BB. Therefore all financials are available on the SEC web site under Edgar Archives. what sales volume is needed to create positive cash flow? Because of the large gross margins anticipated, positive cash flow should be in the early stages of the sales program. will state governments subsidize creation of plants for old tire removal Envirokare is in discussions with individual state governments regarding grants etc. Is the pallet patented? Yes Is it recyclable? YES. The pallet is made from recycled rubber tires and plastics and when it eventually wears out it is recycled itself. State governments are increasing their dumping fees for pallets as it is becoming a large problem in land fills. 140 million wood pallets are thrown away in their first year of use. Is a machine of proprietary nature needed to create these pallets? Yes Do ENVK and licensees themselves process the used tires or do they purchase crumb rubber on the open market? ENVK has been purchasing crumb rubber from the open market. EVCM expects that its licensees will probably do the same. _________________________ PRODUCT RELATED POSTS need something here - anyone?? _________________________________________________________ >>>CORPORATE INFORMATION>>> Website envirokare.com When do you anticipate revenues? 3rd quarter. What is the stock float? With the split on Mar. 7 the float is approx.. 3 million shares. Who is the management team? ENVK has created a management advisory board consisting of some of the most influential people in the pallet industry. In the S8 SEC filing (employee share plan), how did the company determine the max share price of $1.15? A: The price was legally determined through consultation with external parties. This price is subject to shareholder approval during the 4th quarter Annual meeting. The company announced and proposed the employee share plan back in October 99. This of course means that the company could have taken any number of consecutive trading days between October 99 to March 2000 to come up with $1.15 post split. The price may have been determined well before March. The important thing is the price has already been determined, not that it will be determined as we have speculated it would be. In terms of business plan for the next 4 years, what revenue does the company expect to generate? A: The company cannot divulge that info. It's internal information. The company stated that they could be profitable by the 4th quarter of this year, are they still on track to do so? A: Yes. As far as Rob Davidson is concerned, the company is still on track to be profitable from an operations stand point. comment from newbie551: "The important thing here is that the company is on track to generate revenue. How much does not matter at this point. Rob did point out again, that ENVK is still a development stage company, so that fact that it might be generating some revenue later this year is encouraging." _________________________ NEWS From the Website: envirokare.com _________________________ CORPORATE OFFICE Envirokare Tech Inc 2470 Chandler Avenue, Suite 5 Las Vegas, Nevada 89120 Telephone: (888) 354-ENVK (702) 262-1999 Fax: (702) 262-1909 E-mail: enviro@anv.net _________________________ INVESTOR RELATIONS Enhancement Capital Corporation 1-877-799-5599 Casha is the Rep _________________________ STRUCTURE Share Listings Trading Symbol: OTC BB: ENVK Capitalization (9/30/99) Common Stock: Authorized 200,000,000 shares Issued & Outstanding 5,119,070 shares Preferred A Convertible: Authorized 10,000,000 shares Issued & Outstanding 500,000 shares _________________________ GOOD POSTS - COMPANY / MARKET speculating about the split ragingbull.com - DurangoSLT About Schedule 13D ragingbull.com - newbie551 _________________________ Charts of interest: ENVK Positive 10 Day Moving Average Breakout chart tscn.com ENVK Positive 21 Day Moving Average Breakout chart tscn.com ENVK Positive 30 Day Moving Average Breakout chart tscn.com ENVK Telescan ranking tscn.com ENVK Market Marker list otcbb.com _________________________ QUOTE PLACES: Yahoo quote.yahoo.com host.cnbc.com monsterquote.com enter ENVK quote.stockwatch.com stockhouse.ca host.cnbc.com quote.thestreet.com This one is best for checking on who traded, institutional etc. (type in symbol) thomsoninvest.net _____________________________________________________ >>>ABOUT THIS BOARD AND ITS PARTICIPANTS>>> Great Posts This one started the longhorn beetle discussion - Jammin.com - {Õ¿Õ} ragingbull.com Yep, Pallets are made from HARDWOOD - GASP - GregOree - {Õ¿Õ} ragingbull.com Pallet Environment stats from our in-house environmentalist - GregOree - {Õ¿Õ} ragingbull.com Why you should buy at these levels - Qtrip ragingbull.com Why the forward splits at the low levels? - DurangoSLT ragingbull.com Newbi551's Helpful Contributions - mostly market related transcript of a chat with Rob Davidson at Envirokare ragingbull.com As for making investment sense... ragingbull.com Analyses of the SEC filings...yet another great post ragingbull.com Bashers need love too... and have a use! ragingbull.com Wildroot's product related posts - you're-da-man!
