Drip Portfolio Report

by Dale Wettlaufer ([email protected])

Alexandria, VA (May 11, 1998) -- The next company we're adding to the group under consideration is Charles Schwab (NYSE: SCH), the number-one online brokerage and a leading discount brokerage company. The company is making inroads into the 401(k) administration market, which is a very rewarding business for shareholders if done well. I think Schwab can do it well. Here are the numbers for the company, through the end of fiscal 1997.
