  Year-To-Date Performance

Year-To-Date as of December 8, 2004

Deen Capital+4.2%*
S&P 500+6.4%

* An average of managed accounts, net after commissions and fees. Individual account results may vary. See also www.deencapital.com/perform.htm. For information on managed accounts, see www.deencapital.com/mgdaccts.htm.

  Sold Monarch Casino & Resort (MCRI)

Net sell price in managed accounts* $33.45
Date(s) bought Oct 27 2004
Net buy price in managed accounts* $27.11
Holding period 6.1 weeks
Gain/loss in managed accounts +23.4% (after commissions)

* The net buy (sell) price is the total net cost (proceeds) after commissions for all managed accounts divided by the total number of shares.

I sold MCRI today for two reasons: 1) my view that the stock market may have put in an important top on Monday (at least there is substantial risk that this is so); and 2) I have a sell signal on this stock from my StockSell Program (Ver.13s). This signal is based purely on technical analysis.

  Sold China Yuchai Int'l Ltd. (CYD)

Net sell price in managed accounts* $16.13
Date(s) bought Dec 2 2004
Net buy price in managed accounts* $17.51
Holding period 1.0 weeks
Gain/loss in managed accounts -7.9% (after commissions)

* The net buy (sell) price is the total net cost (proceeds) after commissions for all managed accounts divided by the total number of shares.

I sold CYD today for two reasons: 1) my view that the stock market may have put in an important top on Monday (at least there is substantial risk that this is so); and 2) this stock this morning is trading below my "hard stop loss" price of $16.57.

  Sold NCI Building Systems Inc. (NCS)

Net sell price in managed accounts* $37.63
Date(s) bought Nov 16 2004
Net buy price in managed accounts* $34.72
Holding period 3.3 weeks
Gain/loss in managed accounts +8.4% (after commissions)

* The net buy (sell) price is the total net cost (proceeds) after commissions for all managed accounts divided by the total number of shares.

I sold CYD today for two reasons: 1) my view that the stock market may have put in an important top on Monday (at least there is substantial risk that this is so); and 2) a negative market reaction to earnings news. The earnings news, which came out last night, beat estimates on both the top and bottom lines, but their guidance was below expectations. The negative market reaction is reason enough for me to sell.
