**Steady as U.S. Indicators Signal Potential 2008 Rebound

U.S. leading economic indicators rose in April for a second consecutive month – the first back-to-back increase since October 2006.
There are all kinds of ways to interpret this information, and frankly, most of them you’ll hear on the news tonight are hogwash.

** Don’t Buy Yangzhou Coal, Sell Puts Instead
Would you go to a 25%-or-more sale?
Neither would we.
Which is why we’re going after Yanzhou Coal Mining (YZC) again using our favorite buy-it-on-the-cheap technique… selling puts.

**Correction to Yesterday’s Investment Letter

In yesterday’s Money Map Reporter, we said U.S. Global Investors China Regional Opportunity Fund (USCOX) would be splitting three-to-one on May 23.

We apologize for the error.

Best regards,

KYOTO, JAPAN – No doubt it’s springtime here.
The cherry blossoms have come and gone, the semi-san (cicada-like bugs) are singing at night, and my father-in-law is sitting to my left eating a Filet of Fish sandwich with his chopsticks.
