| Analyst Conclusion Tragically, the worst wildfire disaster in California's history now threatens to destroy 15,000 homes. This will unfortunately force thousands of families into the new home buying market. We are saddened by this misfortune, however it stands to reason that this will increase the state's need for new housing. The strength and potential for growth provided by the current demand in the real estate market satisfies our requirements for this segment to be in the spotlight for success. Real estate is the traditional hard asset and it is the foundation of World Associates, Inc. With their strategic positioning and recent acquisitions we feel WAIV is accelerating their move to the forefront of this industry. ![]() Editing Chairman
