OVERVIEW
DURING THE PAST 3-4 MONTHS THE MARKETS HAVE BEEN FLAT WITH A MORE OF A NEGATIVE ATTITUDE. SELECT INVESTMENT OPPS. HAVE DONE WELL BUT OVERALL IT HAS BEEN A DIFFICULT INVESTING
ENVIRONMENT ESPECIALLY FOR THE TECHS. AS YOU KNOW IRAQ, OIL, INTEREST RATES, TERRORISM, ELECTION QUESTION AND INFLATION HAVE FILLED OUR PLATE WITH HUGE UNCERTAINTY AND NERVOUSNESS. WE HAVE ALWAYS
BELIEVED IN BUYING STOCKS WHEN IT APPEARS TO BE THE MOST UN-OPPORTUNE TIME! WE ACTUALLY THINK THAT GREATER EXPOSURE TO EQUITIES @ THIS TIME WILL RETURN ABOVE AVERAGE GAINS FOR THE REMAINING 6 MONTHS
OF 2004. IN THE TECH SECTOR WE LIKE: NOK, AMAT, FLEX SANM, INTC, LU, SUNW, EMC, MOT AND TXN. MOST OF THESE ISSUES HAVE RETREATED 30-60% FROM THEIR RECENT HIGHS. MOST BELIEVE THAT THE TECH CYCLE IS
OVER-WE OFCOURSE DISAGREE!
THIS LETTER WILL INCLUDE A NEW MICRO-CAP RECOMMENDATION:
WE WILL REVIEW OUR TOP 28 (%) GAINERS FROM 2003 AND SEE WHERE THEY STAND :
WE WILL CREATE A "NEW" MINI TECH PORTFOLIO AND MONITOR THE % GAIN PERFORMANCE OF THOSE STOCKS THAT ARE INCLUDED:
WE WILL REVIEW WITH OPINION OUR LAST 6 MONTHS OF "NEW" RECOMMENDATIONS:
OUR TOP 28 INVESTMENTS FROM 2003 YEAR-END. AS OF JUNE 22, 2004 WE WILL LIST THE CURRENT PRICE AND STATUS!

BOTH NWL & IMH IN OUR OPINION OFFER INVESTORS UPSIDE POTENTIAL AND ATTRACTIVE YIELDS ESP. IMH. WE ANTICIPATE THAT IMH WILL DECLARE A .65 DIVIDEND THIS WEEK. IF WE CAN GET
SOME ADDITIONAL GUIDANCE FROM THE COMPANY THIS YIELD SHOULD BEGIN TO DECREASE- YIELDING INVESTORS A GREAT YIELD WITH CONTINUED CAPITAL GAIN APPRECIATION. WE BELIEVE THAT THE STREET DOES NOT
UNDERSTAND IMH'S BUSINESS MODEL AND CONTINUES TO GROUP IT WITH ALL THE OTHER REITs.

This company is very boring, but extremely cheap and undervalued based upon strong fundamentals. The PE, PSR, P/B, P/CF indicate very little down side risk @ current levels. If
you review past years of operations you will see that this is a great economy play! During the boom of the late 90's rev and earning screamed, but during the recent recession-the business suffered.
Upon review of the most recent years we can see a turn-around taking place in our economy and the same turn-around for this company. We also believe that this company could be a juicy takeover
candidate. We also believe that CRWS.OB may outsource some of its clothing manufacturing to China, which ofcourse would and should increase the profits. The company sells to major retailers (
toy,wmt,tgt) and if their biz cooks so does CRWS.OB. If CRWS.OB was to trade @ a conservative PE of only 10X --then our valuation would $1.40 based upon actual numbers and a strong potential that
earnings could expand rapidly within the next 6-9 months yielding much great earnings and expanding PE multiplies. Broker contact: Mike Chesler 1-800-991-7991

EVERYONE HATES THESE WORLDCLASS TECH STOCKS-DURING 2000 PE'S WERE EXPANDING NOW EVEN WITH A STRONG AND EXPANDING RECOVERY THE PE'S CONTINUE TO CONTRACT. ALL OF THE ABOVE
INVESTMENTS LISTED ABOVE HAVE FALLEN 30- 50% FROM RECENT 52 WEEK HIGHS. ALL 4 OF THE ABOVE WOULD CREATE A VERY ATTRACTIVE BASKET OF TECH WITH LIMITED DOWNSIDE RISK AND APPEALING PE ESTIMATES.
