Jeffrey, J.D., M.B.A., Deputy City Treasurer Treasurer's Commentary The Federal Open Market Committee(FOMC)will meet next on April 30. Federal Funds Futures have assigned a 75% probability to a 25-basis point cut to the Federal Funds Rate, leaving it at 2%. Although the FOMC and the federal housing agencies have provided additional liquidity to reduce the odds of another"run"on a primary securities dealer, it is not enough to remove the balance sheet constraints on financial institutions as they continue to hold a portfolio of declining assets, and to incur losses in housing-related transactions. The International Monetary Fund has forecast that the U.S. economy will grow 0.5% in 2008, and at 0.6% in 2009. U.S. inflation is expected to be 2.6% in 2008, based upon global competition for food, energy, and other raw materials. The U.S. unemployment rate is currently 5.1%. Merill Lynch believes that U.S. housing prices will deflate by another 20-25% over the next two years. California housing prices continue to fall at a rate of$3,000 per week. The next"bubble"to burst will probably be commodities -- by midsummer. The price of crude oil, copper, and other commodities are unsustainably high due to speculation. ,There is heavy buying on the short-end of the yield curve, further depressing bond yields. The City has moved all of its bond proceeds into its highest yielding money market fund in order to enhance profitability. ��s �'��ao� c.c.�t.r Treasurer PORTFOLIO STATISTICS Dollars in Thousands MAR-08 FEB-08 JAN-08 DEC-07 NOV-07 OCT-07 CITY Month-End Book Value""" $ 226,638 $ 226,921 $ 231,415 $ 235,098 $ 238,867 $ 243,827 Month-End Market Value""" $ 229,015 $ 229,529 $ 234,066 $ 236,340 $ 240,346 $ 244,504 Paper Gain(Loss) $ 2,377 $ 2,608 $ 2,651 $ 1,242 $ 1,479 $ 677 Prior Year Book Variance $ 15,646 $ 8,430 $ (5,952) $ 76,048 $ 79,077 $ 86,424 Interest Earnings $ 749 $ 739 $ 865 $ 932 $ 961 $ 965 Yield-To-Maturity 4.05% 4.31°/a 4.72°/a 4.88% 4.93% 5.05% Weighted Maturity(Days) 509 462 473 462 455 445 Effective Duration 0.81 0.70 0.72 0.74 0.77 0.79 RDA Month-End Book Value""" $ 275,598 $ 276,463 $ 285,919 $ 248,963 $ 250,163 $ 250,737 Month-End Market Value"** $ 277,364 $ 278,326 $ 287,781 $ 252,033 $ 251,232 $ 251,297 Paper Gain(Loss) $ 1,766 $ 1,863 $ 1,862 $ 3,070 $ 1,069 $ 560 Prior Year Book Variance $ (27,934) $ (31,632) $ 48,552 $ 137,895 $ 135,026 $ 134,517 Interest Earnings $ 881 $ 749 $ 1,027 $ 992 $ 966 $ 1,174 Yield-To-Maturity 3.36% 3.79% 4.45% 4.71% 4.70% 4.87% Weighted Maturity(Days) 291 249 247 285 283 282 Effective Duration 0.41 0.31 0.31 0.37 0.40 0.41 "*" Omits SLGSs.

The City Treasurer's"Statement of Investment Policy"is more restrictive than the California Government Code. The Palm Desert Audit, Investment, and Finance Committee and the Palm Desert City Council review the Statement of Investment Policy annually. For the month ended March 31, 2008,the City and the RDA investment portfolios were in compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations. The City Treasury continued to pursue conservative and prudent investment strategies, based upon the stated objectives of safety, liquidity, and yield (in order of priority). Barring unforeseen events,the City Treasury should have sufficient cash to finance the operations of the City of Palm Desert and the Palm Desert Redevelopment Agency over the next six months. In addition, portions of either the City or the RDA portfolio could be liquidated in order to meet any significant, unexpected cash requirements. Bloomberg L.P. and Interactive Data Corporation provided the data and the analytical tools that were used to calculate the market value of all securities in the City and the RDA investment portfolios. State and Local Government Series securities are held in escrow accounts, and are therefore not included in this report as assets. All balances are bank balances.
