ITAR-TASS

The worm is definitely turning.

ITAR-TASS:

"NEW YORK, April 15 (Itar-Tass) -- U.S. investors, traditional supporters of the Republican Party, seem to be ever more critical of the current Administration and President George W. Bush in person.

The 'investor exodus' phenomenon may have dire effects in the forthcoming congressional elections in November and eventually lead to the Republicans' loss in the struggle for control of the Congress, as follows from a Zogby International opinion poll.

According to the poll results Business Week published on Friday a mere 43 percent of the polled investors approve of George W. Bush's policies. Business Week recalls that in the 2004 presidential election Bush had the backing of 61 percent of investors.

The investor class is a major driving force in U.S. politics. It encompasses virtually all walks of life, because everybody who invests one' s earnings into securities regards oneself as an investor. (cont.)
