MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND OPERATING
RESULTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 AND MARCH 31, 1997:
(A) MARCH 31, MARCH 31,
1998 1997
------------ ------------
PARTNERS' CAPITAL $ 2,646,249 $ 2,613,540
For the three month period ending March 31, 1998, Partners' Capital
decreased $ 19,342, due primarily to net withdrawals of $ 56,573 and
operating expenses of $ 37,388. The decrease in capital resulting from
capital withdrawals and operating expenses was partially offset by the
appreciation in the value of the U.S. Treasury Strip Securities'
interest of $ 36,796 and the realized and unrealized trading gains of
futures contracts, options on futures contracts, and currency forwards
of $ 133,190. Largest gains in futures trading were concentrated in
the financial and currency markets, namely the S&P 500 Index, and U.S.
Dollar index contracts.
In comparison, for the three month period ended March 31,1997,
Partners' capital decreased $ 2,297,290 due to net withdrawals of $
2,244,069 and operating expenses of $ 61,498. The decrease in capital
generated by capital withdrawals and operating expenses were offset
partially by the appreciation in the U.S. Securities' interest of $
69,433, realized market gains of $ 11,063 from the sale of Treasury
Strip Securities, and from the realized and unrealized trading gains
of futures contracts, options on futures contracts, and currency
fowards of $ 111,591. Largest gains from
futures trading were concentrated in the financial and currency
markets, namely the S&P 500, US Dollar Index, and the Swiss franc,
Deutsche mark, and Japanese yen futures contracts. Significant trading
gains were also attributed to currency fowards.
(B) The U.S. Treasury Strip Securities are valued at the lower of cost
plus accrued interest or market value. As of March 31, 1998, the cost
plus accrued interest value (as shown on the Combined Statement of
Financial Condition) of the U.S. Treasury Strip Securities is $
2,208,275 and the value of said securities at market value is $
2,234,069. As of March 31, 1997, the value of the U.S. Treasury Strip
Securities at cost plus accrued interest was $ 4,185,055 and the
market value was $ 4,195,668.
