· Financial Institutions
Financial Institutions provide a service as intermediaries of the capital and debt markets. They are responsible for transferring funds from investors to companies, in need of those funds. The presence of financial institutions facilitate the flow of monies through the economy. To do so, savings accounts are pooled to mitigate the risk brought by individual account holders in order to provide funds for loans. Such is the primary means for depository
institutions to develop revenue. Should the yield curve become inverse, firms in this arena will offer additional fee-generating services including securities underwriting, sales & trading, and prime brokerage.

posts $1.3 billion in revenue for first three months of fiscal year, expects
continued shortages of <span class=SpellE>Wii</span>, Xbox 360 Elite.<o:p></o:p></span></h5>
<p class=MsoNormal style='background:#3F4A59'><span style='font-size:7.0pt;
font-family:Tahoma;color:#CCCCCC'>Posted May 23, 2007 8:00 pm GMT<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style='background:#3F4A59'><span style='font-size:8.5pt;font-family:Arial;
color:white'>Today GameStop released its "best ever" first-quarter
fiscal results. For the 13 weeks ended May 5, the international gaming retailer
brought in nearly $1.3 billion in total sales and held onto $24.7 million of
that as net profit. During the same period last year, the retailer's revenues
just topped $1 billion, and its net profits of $11.7 million were less than
half of this year's first quarter. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style='background:#3F4A59'><span style='font-size:8.5pt;font-family:Arial;
color:white'>Hardware sales in particular were up more than 75 percent, which
the company attributed to "overwhelming demand" for the <span
class=SpellE>Wii</span> and Nintendo DS as well as "strong sales" for
the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. In a conference call, GameStop chairman and CEO
R. Richard Fontaine told analysts that he expects continued shortages of <span
class=SpellE>Wii</span> and Xbox 360 Elite hardware for the current quarter. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style='background:#3F4A59'><span style='font-size:8.5pt;font-family:Arial;
color:white'>When asked about sales of the PS3 hardware in <st1:place w:st="on">Europe</st1:place>,
Fontaine joined <span class=SpellE>Ubisoft's</span> <a
href="
Yves">http://www.gamespot.com/news/6171149.html"><b>Yves Guillemot</b></a> in
criticizing the system's lofty asking price. "It's fairly slow,"
Fontaine said of the system's European sales. "By no means <span
class=GramE>a disaster, but the price point--particularly post-Christmas--is
certainly being felt."</span> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style='background:#3F4A59'><span style='font-size:8.5pt;font-family:Arial;
color:white'>On the software side, GameStop's best-selling game of the quarter
was God of War II for the PlayStation 2. <span class=SpellE>Pokemon</span>
Diamond and <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Pearl</st1:place></st1:City>,
Guitar Hero II, Crackdown, and Ghost Recon Advanced <span class=SpellE>Warfighter</span>
2 were also among the company's top sellers. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style='background:#3F4A59'><span style='font-size:8.5pt;font-family:Arial;
color:white'>While the company raised its earnings-per-share guidance for the
year on the news, it did not change its total revenue projections. GameStop
currently expects to post revenues roughly between $6.3 billion and $6.4
billion, an increase of 19 to 21 percent over the last full fiscal year. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
