         INVESTOR SENTIMENT SURVEY

                 4 / 20 / 98

------------------------------------------------

Below are the results of our weekly "Guess the Dow" sentiment survey. The
survey was taken from 4/13 through 4/19 on our web site. 

Number of participants: 343

30 day outlook:

42% bullish,  41% last week
23% bearish,  26% last week
35% neutral,  33% last week

(percentages may not sum to 100 due to rounding)

Median guess for the DJIA closing value on Friday, 4/24: 9160   (it was
9022 last week). More complete sentiment data is available at
<http://www.lowrisk.com/sentiment.htm> .

The sentiment numbers didn't change much this week. Bullish sentiment
increased slightly to 42%, while bearish sentiment dropped 3% to 23%.
Neutral sentiment moved up 2% to 35%. It is difficult to draw much from
these relatively static numbers. However, the 5 week moving average of
bullish sentiment increased to 51%. We consider anything over 50% to be a
clear warning sign for the bulls.
