January 09, Fitz-Gerald
January 14, 2009

At the Club meeting on January 14th, Keith Fitz-Gerald was presented with
the Speaker of the Year Award by Dave Weil, President. Keith was presented
the award for his outstanding speech given to the Club last year. This year's
presentation emphasized the over-weighting of international in portfolios,
so as to take advantage of the expected higher growth in the rest of the
world versus that in the United States. As usual, very good questions were
asked by the members, which expanded the presentation to include
comments on currency and bond impacts.
