NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 9, 2000

Eugene Profit, president at Profit Investment Management, examines portfolio management strategies in this timely and deeply informative 4,800-word interview from The Wall Street Transcript (212/952-7433) or http://www.twst.com/info/info207.htm.

In a valuable review of investing strategies, Profit explains his approach to managing money and offers specific stock recommendations.

Profit reports: "Now EMC (NYSE:EMC) is in vogue -- there's a demand for storage due to the Internet and that is playing into EMC's strengths."

According to Profit: "There's no argument that Home Depot (NYSE:HD) is a growth stock for all intents and purposes. If we step into a position like that, we'll hold it for the next three years unless the story changes and we think we'll do very well there."

Profit comments on Lucent Technologies (NYSE:LU), "Here is a growth name that is out of favor temporarily, but one that we believe will make a pretty decent return over the course of the next three years."

"On the low end of computing," Profit says: "You've had Advanced Micro Devices (NYSE:AMD) making some inroads, but the platform of the future is really in the network space. And unless Linux is able to take over, or Sun Microsystems (Nasdaq:SUNW) is able to make much larger inroads, Intel (Nasdaq:INTC) is going to be the processor that the computing platforms are going to use."

Profit discusses Franklin Resources (NYSE:BEN): "If you see a rotation back to value or to international investing, Franklin's valuation should go up. And it's at a price relationship in the marketplace currently that is attractive. So it's a play on a couple of different things, but first and foremost, the fundamentals are good."

Profit continues: "I think valuations are a bit stretched in Exxon Mobil (NYSE:XOM). The drillers still have a little more room to expand, just because the demand for the services -- looking for more oil -- will be there. Exxon Mobil may come out with great earnings this quarter."
