Bullish Statements during Earnings call

Statement
So this is trying to highlight that there's a very strong inverse relationship with the five year yield and the dividends that you're paying on your stock
Many repeat visitors, but even more new visitors, many of whom came to read the award-winning Frank Talk blog or sign up for the Investor Alert newsletter, which we've seen tremendous growth in subscribers on for the last several months
Again, another thing that you recognize at war, or bottlenecks, whatever it takes place in Panama Canal or the Red Sea, it gives tremendous pricing power to the cargo shipping companies
These guys, all they do is have pricing power
It's done what the what that we went out to beat, the index and that quantum approach has done a phenomenal job
We've been very happy, with that
I mean, it's quite, quite incredible to see what the especially the growth of NVIDIA, what it's done, and everyone else jumping into AI
It is deeply undervalued on a relative basis to trains and trucks
The company has a strong balance sheet, which includes both cash and other investments
The strengths, the company remains profitable despite challenging macro market conditions
There's been a very attractive investment, paying monthly principal down payments every quarter
On the next slide, we see that we still have a strong balance sheet
And if you just had a pure trains and trucks, the P/E ratios, the cash flow ratios, et cetera, for the airlines are much more attractive value proposition
And I think what's interesting is that last year, due to all the drama that's taken place in Russia, it impacted our Eastern European fund, even though we sold all of our Russian stocks before the war and before they became basically insolvent holdings, we were very fortunate for our shareholders that we went liquid very early but it didn't matter
But we've been able to do through down cycles and 2008 crisis, still be able to maintain paying dividends of how we manage our capital
Operating revenues were $2.8 million, and our quarterly net income was $1.2 million, which was an increase 45% over the prior year same quarter and our earnings were $0.09 per share
GOAU, it's done -- I'm so proud of it because it's over-performed, the GDXJ, it's done what with the model suggested it would do
We're also well-known for our expertise in gold and precious metals, natural resources, airlines and luxury goods
I think an uptick in the PMI, it appears that its bottom, a sustaining run would be explosive to this category and voters for the emerging markets
It is of great value and is and so another rational reason for buying the stock, on down days
As you can see here, Taiwan because the semiconductor business has done well
GROW definitely doubles over 10 days
So our quantum mental investment strategy combines both cutting edge technology and robust data analysis to help optimize returns and manage risk effectively for our shareholders
And what did we see this last year was rates were rising, the dollar is getting strong, a great contraction in PMI
And then pretax margins, for WisdomTree, they're higher
As you can see, the ETF world continues to enjoy more product access and the fund flow is going out of the mutual fund world
Net income after taxes for the quarter was $1.2 million or the $0.09 per share, which was an increase of $382,000 compared to the net income of $847,000 or $0.06 per share the same quarter last year
But he has this unique model which we look at and respect
So this is my being favor, and he came up with this famous book and really pound with the table across America on the shareholder yield, a better approach to yield investing
Bruce is always wants to know articulating it, and I want to point out that, the company believes that stock is undervalued and therefore buys back shares of growth stock when the price is flattered down from the previous trading day
       

Bearish Statements during earnings call

Statement
But there's concerns of a recession, the negative news that's out there has impacted the sentiment in particular institutional investors out of that of Europe, that we have been able to witness as insurance companies
And further, same thing with the great concerns out of China, and its bullying tactics, its impacted the China fund
On Slide 37, we see our total operating revenues of $2.8 million for the quarter, which was a decrease of $910,000 or 24% from the $3.7 million from the same quarter last year
That was a four tell warning of a slowdown in the global economy
Now they're wrestling with excessive JETS, debt as a percentage of GDP and real estate imploding around the leadership
On the next slide, we see our operating income for the quarter ending December 31, 2023, is $192,000 or a decrease of $716,000 compared to the same quarter for fiscal year 2023
As you can see that, the lowest dividend yield is WisdomTree, then we're in the middle between Invesco and our price to cash flow is about the same of WisdomTree, is higher than Invesco, but it appears that Invesco has other losses that they're wrestling with
So even with all the negative news, the math suggests that the markets will be up this year
The decrease is primarily due to decreases in assets under management, especially in our JETS ETF, as Frank discussed
So you can see here that the grow dividend is below the five-year treasury yield
This is a outline that JETS, the overall as of ETF, we saw assets, decline, redeem and the bulk of those seem to be institutions from out of the country, that use JETS as a proxy
The decrease in operating revenue is due to a decrease in assets under management, partially offset by decrease in operating expenses
And so we shut down those two funds, mutual funds in the summer, and I think it's been a wise decision for the shareholders and for us
Chinese stocks significantly underperformed Asian peers
Operating expenses for the current quarter were $2.6 million, a decrease of $194,000 or 7%, primarily due to decreases in employee compensation and benefits of $168,000 or 15%, mainly due to decreases in bonuses
