Subject: Acka: Ackan Reserve Financial Report

Daily News:
	For the first time in over a week the market had a large increase,
more than thirteen percent.  A new proposal threatens to create fractional
stocks.  Says Ackan Reserve Chair else...if, "I intend to fight these
pseudo-stocks to the utmost of my ability.  As long as I am Chair of the
Ackan Reserve, it will not accept fractional stocks."

Rules and Regulations:
	The Board of the Ackan Reserve is considering a comprehensive
proposal to increase stock trading.  It would include rounding of the
market's value, a fee on all stocks traded back to the Reserve, and a third
value to be affected by the number of shares owned and bought.  Two
additional positions on the Board would be created to oversee the "ballast"
for the Ownership Value (as was included in the original draft of the stock
market) and also to authorize stock splits to prevent the market from
becoming too expensive to buy into.  As usual, comments from the Ackan
community are requested.  (Does anyone actually read this?  I've never
received a response to anything I've printed in the ARFR.)

Stock Market Information:

Assuming no futher announcements today, the following information will take
affect at 12:12 tomorrow:

	Current Value: 57.93
	Positivity Value: 49.0
	Activity Value: 8.93

	Change Today: +7.0
	Change in Positivity: +5.2
	Change in Activity: +1.8
	Percent Change: +13.7%

	Activities Today: 13

Is this the one you already auctioned twice already, or am I thinking of
a different Otzma Card Truthseeker?

Um... I thought I'd already got rid of that one, so I suppose this must be a
different one? I checked the pe page beforehand to see what I had, and it was
there, so I just thought it must have been another that I got from my SBoC.

It's probably the same one, then.  I'm still not actually sure that it's
gone, but Slakko's claim that it got transferred at the end of the first
auction(I forget to who, but I'm sure e has that information)is pretty
persuasive.

It's a shameful thing to admit, but the PE page does not always reflect
reality.  However, if anyone else wants to be Financier and things e
can do better...:-)
