The Internet & Casino Stock Report May 19, 1999 Market Overview: Traders still adjusting to recent tightening bias decision. Tech stocks should recover from here but ever so slowly. We are now approaching what is seasonally a very benign timeframe. The summer months are often rather uneventful. Mortgage Bankers Holding (MBHC): The recent retreat in stock price may be attributed to the following: 1) a parting of ways with their CEO, as this man's views were apparently inconsistent with MBHC's aggressive growth strategy and 2) the removal of their online mortgage webpage. The site was taken down for the purposes of renovation. The company has assured investors that two PR's are forthcoming (most likely before the E-Loan IPO, now expected the week of May 31st). One to announce a new CEO and one to trumpet the new and improved webpage <www.mbhc.com>. We believe the current price of 0.29 offers a tremendous buying opportunity.

The Internet & Casino Stock Report May 24, 1999 Market Overview: Stocks were up modestly in Sunday evening trading. For Monday we look for rather uneventful trade. Clearly there is a lack of news this week. First quarter earnings reports are basically done with, and this weeks' economic data; jobless claims, consumer confidence, home sales, durable goods orders, etc., probably will not have much impact on the market. A couple of IPO's to watch this week are DLJ Direct (DIR), Barnes and Noble.com (BNBN), Juno Online (JWEB), and Edgar Online (EDGR). Other than that, this is probably a good time to start think ahead to Memorial Day weekend. Stocks to Watch: Affinity Technology Group (AFFI): This stock traded at a low of 1 5/8 for six consecutive sessions, unable to break this support the stock moved higher to close at 2 1/8 on Friday. Volume increased to 513,000 shares. Affinity could run higher this week along with other online mortgage stocks as we await the E-Loan IPO. One note: E-Loan (EELN) is tentatively scheduled for the week of May 31st, or the week of June 7th, depending on your source. Again, as with the eToys (ETYS) debut we are dealing with lead underwriter Goldman Sachs (GS) whom is notorious for bouncing IPO dates around depending on prevailing market conditions. We will keep you posted. Leisure Planet.com (LPHL): <formerly First South African Corp (FSACF)> Leisure Planet is a major European online travel company. We first mentioned this stock at 3 5/8, it then ran as high as 11 7/8. The recent pullback has set up a potential buying opportunity. Therefore we rate this stock accumulate in the current $5.25- $5.75 range. Another player in this group is 1-800-Travel (IFLY), now trading at $5 5/8. Both stocks could run in sympathy as Las Vegas based Travelscape.com (RSVN) is brought to market. The initial filing for RSVN was submitted 4/27/99 but at this time no formal date for the IPO has been set. www.traderjohn.com Disclaimer: The information provided above is believed to be accurate.
