“Water stocks are not recession proof but are recession resistant”


POINT ROBERTS, WA -- October 7, 2008- Investorideas.com and its Water-stocks.com
Podcast series “Investing in Water” present an in-depth interview with Mr. Bill
Brennan, President & Managing Partner of Aqua Terra Asset Management and Senior
Portfolio Manager of the Praetor Global Water Fund. Mr. Brennan discusses the
performance of the Kinetics Water Infrastructure Fund and global trends specific to
the sector including water re-use and reclamation.

According to Mr. Brennan the Kinetics Water Infrastructure Fund, launched in June
2007, focuses on water infrastructure both globally and in the US. The fund is about
65% invested in companies that are domiciled outside of the US.

Mr. Brennan reports, ”“What we try to do is invest in the areas where
infrastructure spending is accelerating. We have seen it go from about $250 -260
Billion 5 years ago to $520 Billion moving to a Trillion dollars in the next 4-5
years on an annual basis. We invest in companies that have a 30-40% exposure to
water infrastructure and growing.

So you won’t see us involved in areas that are not water company related. We won’t
be in the GE’s and the Siemens of the world, because even though they are big
players in water and water infrastructure, their revenue does not move the needle
enough from a contribution standpoint to make it into our universe. We have to watch
those companies because they are actively involved in acquisitions and they have
become the leaders in technology. We focus on the small and mid-cap companies that
are really going to benefit from the increase in spending globally.”

In discussing the fund performance Mr. Brennan tells us, “The fund continues to
out-perform the broader market by about 800-900 basis points in regard to the S&P
and we also outperform the water ETF’s on an absolute performance basis.”

“Water stocks are not recession proof but are recession resistant”, he notes.
“People have to take a look at necessities- where they spend. Water is a necessity
along with power and waste management.”
