The SOL Stock Index |
|
| To help track Wall Street's impression of the snowboard market we've
decided to form a simple stock index. We purchased 100 shares of all the
publicly traded snowboard industry companies on June 18, 1996.
We purchased Anthony Industries (K2), California Pro (Kemper), Marker (Sims/Santa Cruz), Morrow, Oakley, Quiksilver, Ride, Vans, and Variflex (Static) at a total cost of $16,296.00. From this point forward we will include weekly updates on how the SOL Index is doing and will occasionally get into some analysis. Here's how we looked at market close on June 27, 1996. Total Portfolio Value $15,450.00 (-840.60) ANT 29 3/4 0 29 3/4 +0.00 2,975.00 CALP 3 0 3 13/32 -40.60 300.00 MRKR 7 1/2 0 7 3/4 -25.00 750.00 MRRW 10 1/4 -3/4 11 1/2 -125.00 1,025.00 OO 42 1/8 +3/4 42 3/8 -25.00 4,212.50 QUIK 28 3/4 +3/4 34 1/8 -537.50 2,875.00 RIDE 10 3/8 -1/4 11 7/8 -150.00 1,037.50 VANS 16 1/8 +1 3/8 14 7/8 +125.00 1,612.50 VFLX 6 5/8 +3/8 7 1/4 -62.50 662.50 |
