- 0e0f Allied Gas and Oil Co.
- 3 7 [
- f f AlG
- 3 7 ], average yield :
- a f 9
+ 3 7 percent.
+ Allied is one of the oldest oil companies around. It has suffered because
+ of the problems in Texas, but new management promises that new oil fields
+ in Alaska will pay off big if the environmentalists can be placated. This
+ company is risky, but not likely to be bought out or fail. With luck, it
+ can pay off big. Without, you may never see your money again.

- e f Brothers Arms, Inc.
- 3 7 [
- f f BoA
- 3 7 ], average yield :
- a f 3
+ 3 7 percent.
+ BA is a major small arms producer, long known for its' line of service
+ pistols. The 80s were good for BA, but recent measures to curb gun
+ ownership and the military lay-offs have hurt. BA has been researching
+ field artillery, but peace in Europe may make that a finanical mistake.
+ This company is rather stable now, but signs of a decline are looming.
+ Though unconfirmed, this company might be ripe for a takeover.

- e f Computers 'R' You
- 3 7 [
- f f CRY
- 3 7 ], average yield :
- a f 5
+ 3 7 percent.
+ CRY is your typical silicone valley clone maker, with the exception that
+ they continue to survive in a cutthroat buisness. They have managed to
+ prosper with a line of inexpensive quality products. However, with the
+ ever-changing market, CRY's recent cut-backs in research may be an
+ indication of deeper problems. With chairman Sung-Li owning 55 percent of
+ the stock, a takeover is unlikely in the short term, but one would likely
+ be friendly and non-destructive. This company looks like a solid
+ investment, but look out for troubling signs.
+
- e f Dali Import Co.
- 3 7 [
- f f DaI
+ 3 7 ], no yield.
+ Dali, long known as an importer of wines, spirits, and beer, has been
+ expanding into fabrics. This company is very stable, choosing to re-invest
+ profits into its' shipping fleet instead of splitting them with investors.
+ Look for steady if unspectacular growth. The only dark cloud possible for
+ Dali is the market at home. If there is a recession, look for the value to
+ slide.

- e f Enderman Banking
- 3 7 [
- f f EBa
- 3 7 ], average yield :
- a f 3
+ 3 7 percent.
+ JALB - Just Another Large Bank. This bank was a small concern in in Iowa
+ until 1973 when a new board started buying out other banks. It escaped the
+ farm failures of the midwest by growing to both coasts. A national bank by
+ 1982, it was ready to grow with Reaganomics, and it did, growing at an
+ average rate of 25 percent a year through the 80s. The outlook is mixed
+ with the banking industry currently suffering through massive failures, and
+ bad debts (mainly from bad real-estate and third world loans). Enderman is
+ no exception, having many high-risk loans. Don't look for white-knights,
+ but heady management could bring a return to the golden days, or bad
+ management could mean failure.
+
- e f Feelgood Retirement Homes
- 3 7 [
- f f FRm
+ 3 7 ], no yield.
+ Feelgood, centered in central Florida, runs numerous elder care centers and
+ planned subdivisions, offering medical, legal, and recreational help to
+ its' residents. Steady but slow growth is all but assured with the graying
+ of America.

- e f Good'n'Quick Foods
- 3 7 [
- f f GnQ
- 3 7 ], average yield :
- a f 2
+ 3 7 percent.
+ GnQ is a large food conglomerate. It owns several fast-food chains, along
+ with most of the prepackaged distribution networks for them. Its' other
+ holdings contain a major soda pop company, and a line of succesful second
+ run movie theatres. Growth and outlook are both phenomenal as long as the
+ board refrains from saddling the the company in debt by buying too many
+ other companies.
+
- e f Halls Conglomerate
- 3 7 [
- f f HCg
- 3 7 ], average yield :
- a f 6
+ 3 7 percent.
+ Major holding company, owns everything from banks to airlines to flower
+ shops. Currently saddled in massive debt from the acquisitions of the
+ last five years. Rumors abound and conflict. This company is known for
+ its' rollercoaster stock rides, the key is knowing when to get on and off.
+ You could make millions, or lose it all. This company was put together to
+ make money for its' board of trustees. They could burn you, or let you
+ coast on their coattails. Halls is not for the weak at heart, or shallow
+ of wallet.

- e f Instant Insurers Corp. [Ins
- 3 7 ], average yield :
- a f 8
+ 3 7 percent.
+ Big insurance concern with a high annual pay-off. IIC is big, but some
+ analysts warn it may be too big. Known for insuring everything, some warn
+ that the high yields paid to investors may hamper the ability to pay claims
+ in case of natural disaster. IIC is a high yield company not known for
+ growth.
+
- e f Junk-Bond Mutuals, Inc.
- 3 7 [
- f f JuB
- 3 7 ], average yield :
- a f 10
+ 3 7 percent.
+ The ultimate high-risk company. A corporation that feeds off other
+ corporations. A child of the free-market politics of the last ten years,
+ it will be interesting to see how JBM adjusts to the slower economy of the
+ 90s. A high profit company geared to making money. It is ripe for
+ speculation. You could find yourself rich, or you could find yourself
+ reaping the whirlwind of financial failures. Get rich quick, or never be
+ heard from again.
