MARKET OVERVIEW
Overseas markets are looking higher once again with all 15 markets that we
track in positive territory with an average increase of 1.56 percent. Markets
were in a temporarily oversold condition over geopolitical fears. An absence
of any major problems in the Middle East may help markets to continue to push
forward in the near-term. Many of the underlying problems that have caused the
pullback in equity prices, such as high energy prices, the specter of higher
interest rates, and increased risk factors, are still in place and could cause
further declines.
Oil prices finally came down yesterday after gaining nearly seven percent on
five straight trading sessions. OPEC is now considering increasing their
production; President Purnomo Yusgiantoro says the organization could supply an
extra 10 to 15 percent more oil to the world market if necessary, but it is
already producing two million barrels per day over its current production
ceiling. The Bush administration has said that it will not release crude oil
from the nation's emergency stockpile to help ease record high gasoline prices.

DYNAMIC MARKET OPPORTUNITIES
After Monday's 564-point market meltdown, India's Bombay stock exchange
inevitably rebounded after such a huge slump. The index clawed back 371 points
(8.2%) on Tuesday, on news that leader of the incoming Congress party Sonia
Gandhi has turned down the prime minister's job. Apparently, President A.P.J.
Kalam has doubts that Gandhi can form a stable government and her family is
concerned for her security. Gandhi is the subject of vigorous protests that
she shouldn't lead the country because she only claimed Indian citizenship in
1983, having been born in Italy. According to Uma Bharti, sports minister in
the outgoing government, having Gandhi as prime minister "will put national
security and country's self-respect in jeopardy". Alternatively, Senior
Congress member Salman Khursheed said the "cause is lost" with Gandhi rejecting
the prime ministerial job. Nevertheless, she will offer the job to former
finance minister Manmohan Singh. After Monday's huge slide, Ian Cooper, editor
of Taipan's Red Zone investment group, followed one of the team's key
profit-making trading rules: "When a market crash occurs, find the companies
that sank the most ... then buy them." He applied it to Indian companies HDFC
Bank and Satyam Computers Services, knowing that both were likely to bounce
following the sell off. And bounce they did. Less than 24 hours later, Cooper
cashed out today and took 29% and 10% gains respectively for his investors.

obesity problem -- and identified several ways for you to profit from companies
