MARKET OVERVIEW
Overseas trading is looking good, and all 15 of the foreign indices that we
track are currently in positive territory. The cumulative average return on
the collective stood at 0.735 at 7:56 a.m. Eastern time. Understandably,
London is still the focus of much attention after last week's bomb blasts
caused so much disruption, but the FTSE 100 is edging ahead as the capital city
tries to move on. In an encouraging announcement, airport operator BAA said it
saw a year-on-year increase of 4.3-percent in passenger numbers in June. Asian
markets closed higher, given a boost by news from the U.S., including Friday's
jobs report, easing fuel prices, and the passing of Dennis.
The August contract on sweet crude oil lost 1.81 percent on Friday, but still
managed to finish the week with a gain of 1.5 percent. Black gold lost its
grip on the 60 level, but is holding above its 10-day and 20-day moving
averages. In early trading this morning, oil futures are down $1.06 to $58.57
a barrel as Hurricane Dennis failed to hit key oil rigs and caused less damage
than anticipated.

DYNAMIC MARKET OPPORTUNITIES
One day after the terrorist attacks in London, it was comforting to see the
FTSE 100 recover strongly on Friday and erase Thursday's losses completely.
Following a 71-point decline on Thursday, the index added 73.90 (1.4%) points
to close at 5232.20. In a reversal of fortunes, the stocks that suffered worst
in the aftermath, namely airlines and insurance companies, were the ones that
rebounded Friday. Other European indices, such as the German Dax and French
Cac 40, also performed strongly, as resilient European investors fought back
against the terrorists. However, the pound wasn't able to follow. The currency
shed 0.5% against the US dollar and slumped to a 19-month low of US$1.7363
versus the greenback. It's down 5% over the past two weeks. Despite their
best efforts, the terrorists also weren't able to prevent the G8 leaders from
agreeing to a new deal to give Africa US$50 billion per year in a radical
effort to end debt and poverty. British leader Tony Blair said this involves
removing trade barriers and canceling the debts of the 18 most stricken African
nations. The G8 nations will also train 20,000 peacekeepers to maintain order
throughout Africa. In return, African leaders must promise to govern
democratically and without corruption. Elsewhere, Morgan Stanley is bullish on
the Brazilian economy and is advising investors to increase their stock
holdings, based on imminent interest rate declines and higher raw materials
prices. Brazil's current interest rate sits at a lofty 19.75%, but Morgan
Stanley believes this could fall to 16.5% by December and to 14% by the end of
2006. Such bullishness comes despite a damaging corruption scandal that has
engulfed the Brazilian government and its president "Lula" da Silva, who is
struggling to retain popular support. Even approval for Lula among his
hardcore supporters is eroding. This is a departure from three years ago when
the "man of the people" won 61% of the vote and whom, despite some skepticism,
many in the country genuinely felt was going to change the country's fortunes.
The scandal revolves around allegations that members of Lula's Workers Party
traded jobs and cash in return for votes in the country's Congress. Although
there's no proof that Lula is directly involved, he's naturally taking the
brunt of the pressure.
