<td>With the ending of the Spitzer settlement in July 2009 there will be a dramatic reduction of free independent research available to investors like yourself. Although this will not impact the Research Oracle, we believe that freely available independent research is crucial for a healthy market to function. Ask your broker a/e what plans they expect to implement to continue to provide you with independent research. You may wish to read this recent coverage from TIME Magazine for more information.</td>
