  HONG KONG, Oct 05 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
Today, www.WorldStreetFundamentals.com released its industry report
highlighting Lincare Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: LNCR) and Patterson
Companies, Inc. (NASDAQ: PDCO). Full fundamental and technical analysis
is available at www.WorldStreetFundamentals.com/Reports.php?id=LNCR+PDCO.

    Short-term outlooks within US and global economies continue to adjust
downward, as US Treasury yields touched their lowest levels in over 65
years. International Monetary Fund downgraded estimates for US growth by
1.0% this year, down from 2.5%. 'Significant downside risks' to the US
economy were confirmed by the Federal Reserve pressured by 'strains in
global financial markets'.

    As the US dollar trades above an eight-month high against the Euro, it
highlights a deepening of the Eurozone sovereign debt crisis -- furthered
by continued policy inaction from European governments. We expect
continued volatility until economic data stabilizes and we see decisive
policy action to deal with the Eurozone debt crisis.

    Our members are preparing for a turn in tides. Currently, the Credit
Suisse Risk Appetite Indicator is at a 30-year low. For the past three
occurrences, this level has acted as a leading indicator of large stock
market rallies 18 months following.
