INTERNET FINANCIAL CONNECTIONS FEATURES AMERICAN CAPITAL AS A STOCK TO BUY

BETHESDA, Md., June 15 /PRNewswire/ -- Internet Financial Connection recently featured American Capital (Nasdaq:ACAS) as a stock to buy. The article written by Mark Johnson quoted Roger Groh of Groh Asset Management as saying that American Capital ``is reasonably priced, has terrific management, good yield and it provides good long term appreciation for investors.''

``What is interesting about American is that they are a registered investment company and are required to pay out 90% of their income cash in the form of a dividend ... David Gladstone is a very experienced manager with over 20 years' experience in the field.''
