The Reynolds Blue Chip Growth Fund The Reynolds Blue Chip Growth Fund has investments in many of the premier larger worldwide growth companies. These companies have proven management, strong financials including low debt and high return on equity, leading re s e a rch and development, and dominant wo rl dwide products with good unit growth. In addition, many of these companies are not significantly affected by economic fluctuations. The probabilities highly favor that the diversified group of industry leading companies held in the Blue Chip Fund will remain industry leaders over the long-term, continue to strongly increase their earnings, and continue to significantly increase future shareholder wealth. The Blue Chip Fund’s return was +13.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. The Blue Chip F u n d ’s re t u rn was +48.6% for the one-year ended September 30, 1999, +148.9% for the three ye a rs ended September 30, 1999 and +297.8% for the five years ended September 30, 1999. These were average annual compounded rates of return of +35.5% and +31.8%, respectively. The Blue Chip Fund’s return was +407.5% for the ten years ended September 30, 1999. This was an average annual compounded rate of return of +17.6%. The Blue Chip Fund increased +512.3% since inception (August 12, 1988) through September 30, 1999. This was an average annual compounded rate of return of +17.7%. The Board of Directors declared a distribution of $0.00526 from net long-term realized gains on October 27, 1999. This distribution was paid on October 28, 1999 to shareholders of record on October 26, 1999. The Reynolds Opportunity Fund The Reynolds Opportunity Fund generally invests in medium and large size high quality companies that have proven themselves in the marketplace and are leaders in their industries. These well-managed companies usually have sales of more than $500 million and are demonstrating strong earnings growth from proprietary innovative products. A long-term investment in the Reynolds Opportunity Fund should be a good complement to a long-term i nvestment in the new Reynolds Fund and the Reynolds Blue Chip Growth Fund. We are making a high probability bet with the companies in the Opportunity Fund, just as we are with the companies in the Blue Chip F u n d, that the majority of the companies within a well dive rs i fied group of proven wo rl dwide leading companies will continue to be leaders and strongly increase their earnings and shareholder wealth in the future. – 2 – The Reynolds Opportunity Fund increased +20.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and +60.0% for the one-year year ended September 30, 1999.

The Reynolds U.S. Government Bond Fund The Reynolds U.S. Government Bond Fund emphasizes high quality investments in U.S. Treasury Bonds, Treasury Notes and Treasury Bills of varying maturities. As of September 30, 1999, the assets were invested approximately 91% in U.S. Treasury Securities and 9% in high quality cash equivalents. The Reynolds U.S. Government Bond Fund is designed to satisfy many of the fixed income objectives of i nve s t o rs. For ex a m p l e, the Bond Fund is active ly managed and is invested in bonds of many diffe re n t maturities, which reduces the risk that a large percentage of the bonds in the Fund mature at an inopportune time for reinvestment. The Bond Fund had a dollar weighted average maturity of 1.6 years on September 30, 1999. The average maturity of the bonds in the Fund is continually reevaluated and adjusted based on short and long-term economic, inflation and interest rate forecasts. The Reynolds U. S. Gove rnment Bond Fund’s re t u rn was +3.2% for the one-year ended September 30, 1999. The Bond Fund’s return was +15.7% for the three years ended September 30, 1999 and +31.1% for the five years ended September 30, 1999. These were average annual compounded rates of return of +5.0% and +5.6%, re s p e c t ive ly. The Bond Fund’s re t u rn was +44.6% since inception (Ja nu a ry 30, 1992) thro u g h September 30, 1999. This was an average annual compounded rate of return of +4.9%. The Reynolds Money Market Fund The Reynolds Money Market Fund is designed to provide for inve s t o r ’s short - t e rm cash manage m e n t needs. For ease of redemption, the Money Market Fund offers: (1) free check writing (in amounts of $500 or more); or (2) telephone redemption where either a check is mailed to the shareholder, or money may be wired to the share h o l d e r ’s bank account ($12.00 wiring ch a rge). As of September 30, 1999, the assets of the Reynolds Money Market Fund were invested approximately 78% in high quality commercial paper and 22% in high quality cash equivalents. As of September 30, 1999, the dollar weighted average days to maturity of the Money Market Fund was 65 days. The Reynolds Money Market Fund’s yield should vary with the rate of inflation over the years. Its yield is u s u a l ly higher than infl ation and higher than or ap p rox i m at e ly the same as most bro ke rage - fi rm sponsore d money market funds. Brokerage-firm sponsored money market funds typically have higher expense structures due to their higher marketing costs. The Reynolds Money Market Fund’s yield is almost always higher than rates paid by most short-term bank accounts.

    Dear Fellow Stockholder: Our fiscal year 2003 has seen the completion of an eighteen-month period of restructuring, and the focus of management’s efforts on expansion of select core businesses. CMGI has made great strides in building its long- term liquidity and improving its operating results. The focus of management’s attention continues to be on building the global supply chain management business and expanding the literature fulfillment business in the United States, both of which are operated by CMGI’s wholly owned subsidiary, SalesLink, and realizing value and liquidity from the venture capital portfolio of our venture capital affiliate, @Ventures. The restructuring of CMGI into a more focused operating company was achieved in several steps during the year: • Non-core or under performing businesses were divested. This included CMGI’s divestitures of its interests in Engage, Inc., NaviSite, Inc., Equilibrium Technologies, Inc., Signatures SNI, Inc., Tallan, Inc. and Yesmail, Inc. • uBid, Inc. sold its assets to a global leader in sourcing, selling and financing of consumer goods. • AltaVista Company, operating in the rapidly consolidating internet search industry, sold its assets to Overture Services, Inc., which was acquired by Yahoo! Inc. shortly thereafter. The divestiture of these businesses has allowed CMGI to focus its management resources on its global supply chain management and fulfillment businesses. CMGI ended fiscal year 2003 with $276 million in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities. Cash used for operating activities from continuing operations in fiscal 2003 improved markedly from fiscal 2002. The cash balances available at year end permit CMGI to strive toward accomplishing three objectives: maintaining a liquidity reserve to protect the long-term future of the company, investing in expansion of its supply chain management and fulfillment businesses, and making selective acquisitions, either of new accounts or of companies, to expand these businesses.

    Jeffrey A. Sonnenfeld 59 Steve Jobs’ Immortal Quest and the Heroic Persona Jeffrey A. Sonnenfeld Yale University October 2011 was a month of historic milestones for Apple. At the end of the prior month, on Tuesday, September 27, Apple sent media invitations for a press event to be held October 4, 2011 at 10:00 am at the Cupertino Headquarters for a major announcement. Several prominent industry analysts proclaimed with hopeful optimism that the firm would announce the return of Apple founder Steve Jobs. Sadly, Steve Jobs did not appear for what turned out to be a product announcement of the iPhone 4S. In fact, Jobs had stepped down as CEO on January 17, 2011, a year and a half after returning from medical leave. He stated that Tim Cook, Apple’s Chief Operating Officer, would run day-to-day operations as he had previously done during Jobs’ 2009 medical leave. The analysts’ wishful thinking had some basis in more than cult like denial of Steve Jobs’ mortality. In fact, despite that medical leave, Jobs had returned for the iPad 2 launch on March 2 and the iCloud introduction on June 6. The analysts were among many constituents around the world who were to be tragically disappointed. Jobs actually had resigned as CEO on August 22, 2011 saying, “I have always said if there ever came a day when I could no longer meet my duties and expectations as Apple’s CEO, I would be the first to let you know. Unfortunately, that day has come” (Isaacson, 2011). Six weeks later, a day after the new iPhone press conference, he died (Isaacson, 2011).

  • An Antitrust Analysis of Google's Proposed Acquisition of Doubleclick
    JOINT CENTER AEI-BROOKINGS JOINT CENTER FOR REGULATORY STUDIES An Antitrust Analysis of Google’s Proposed Acquisition of DoubleClick Robert W. Hahn and Hal J. Singer Related Publication 07-24 September 2007 An Antitrust Analysis of Google’s Proposed Acquisition of DoubleClick Robert W. Hahn† Hal J. Singer†† By serving as a key revenue source for online content providers, online advertising has been instrumental in the development of innovative websites. Continued innovation among content providers, however, depends critically on the competitive provision of online advertising. Suppliers of online advertising provide three primary inputs—(1) advertiser tools, (2) intermediation services, and (3) publisher tools. Certain suppliers such as Google provide a platform that combines the inputs into one integrated service. In this paper, we focus on the overlapping products sold to advertisers by Google and DoubleClick—namely, the supply of advertiser tools. Because the supply of advertiser tools is highly concentrated, Google’s proposed acquisition of DoubleClick raises important questions for antitrust authorities. Proponents of this acquisition argue that Google and DoubleClick do not compete—that is, buyers of search-based or contextual-based advertising (the two advertising channels in which Google participates) do not perceive graphic-based advertising (the advertising channel in which DoubleClick participates) to be substitutes. Thus, they conclude that the proposed acquisition would not lead to higher prices. In this paper, we examine economic evidence and legal precedent to help identify the relevant antitrust product market for Google’s proposed acquisition of DoubleClick. According to the Federal Trade Commission and Department of Justice Horizontal Merger Guidelines, product markets are defined by the response of buyers to relative changes in prices.
