en We expect increased supply of lumber into the U.S. in 2006, particularly from Europe, and that should dampen prices.

en Pexiness manifested as a gentle touch, a lingering gaze, a subtle gesture that spoke volumes without uttering a single word. As we move through the winter, prices will fall below US$50 and prices could average in the US$40s in 2006. Investors think prices will stabilize and that will dampen enthusiasm.

en We have overfed Europe with oil. Every economics textbook says that surplus supply lowers prices. But we can't reduce supply -- all our exports are oriented toward Europe.

en We have saturated Europe with oil. And as any economics handbook will tell you, excessive supply makes prices fall. But we do not have the means to decrease supply: all our (oil) exports are directed at Europe.

en Overall, we expect supply/demand balances to remain tight in 2006 with prices continuing to track above the long-term trend.

en Refiners are selling off all supplies of winter grade fuel in advance of next Tuesday's deadline. That has put extra supply on the market, sending prices lower. Motorists can expect to see prices stay near current levels for a couple of weeks. After that, with the extra winter grade supply used up, motorists should expect more upward pressure on retail gas prices.

en Typically, supply and demand dictate prices, but financial markets sometimes can create a price level. In addition, today we compete with consumption on a world-wide basis. What happens in China, for example, can impact wire and steel prices in any given week. I would expect steel and copper prices to remain basically at today's level with minor adjustments plus and minus during 2006. Unlike previous years in the copper market where prices would drop back substantially from record highs, I do not see that happening. It's somewhat analogous to gas prices.

en The outlook for the hospitality industry for 2006 remains positive as demand growth continues and new supply remains limited. Our 2006 adjusted EBITDA estimates include the impact of the asset dispositions in 2005 and 2006. Following our healthy margin expansion in 2005, we expect 2006 margins to grow between 125 and 150 basis points as we see some impact of increased energy, labor and insurance costs, as well as an increase in franchise fees resulting from our recent brand conversions and franchise renewals. Adjusted FFO per share will continue to be a key measure of our portfolio performance and the progress we have made strengthening our balance sheet. Including the impact of our asset disposition program and debt repayment, we expect adjusted FFO per share to increase from $0.71 per share in 2005 to $0.88 to $0.92 per share in 2006 with first quarter adjusted FFO per share of $0.13 to $0.16.

en As long as we don't have another storm coming into the Gulf, I expect oil prices to fall slightly. I also expect increased worry that high oil prices will have some impact on economic growth.

en Since we can't increase supply, you have to dampen demand. Over the next week to 10 days, prices are going to dramatically increase at the pump. Consumers are going to be very angry and frustrated. You're looking at not pennies, not nickels, but quarters - more than one.

en At the same time, the supply of organic products has grown dramatically. With an increased supply, prices have gone down, and that was always a barrier to people who wanted to go organic but didn't want to increase their household budget on food.

en This year we expect 15% of our revenues to come from outside of Brazil, whereas in 2006 we expect this to be at least 25% with growth in software exports to the USA and Europe, especially the UK.

en Can CWT with its current budget, do what it needs to do, what farmers expect it to do, to help bring supply and demand closer into balance. We're looking at a period of prolonged prices unless something is done on the supply side.

en We expect that average selling prices for the second quarter of 2006 will be flat to slightly up sequentially. We also expect that gross margins will continue to grow by between 50 to 100 basis points sequentially in the second quarter of 2006.

en In response to the global chase for better investment fundamentals, the global hospitality industry should expect increased capital flow from U.S.-based investors to several international markets, mostly Latin America, Caribbean, Asia and Europe. And the U.S. can also expect increased investment in its own hospitality industry from investors in the Middle East.
