3. Trading Activities:
The Partnership was formed for the purpose of trading contracts in a variety of commodity interests, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments. The results of the Partnership's trading activities are shown in the Statements of Income and Expenses and Partners' Capital and are discussed in Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The Customer Agreement between the Partnership and CGM gives the Partnership the legal right to net unrealized gains and losses on open futures positions.
All of the commodity interests owned by the Partnership are held for trading purposes. The average fair values of these interests during the three months ended March 31, 2005 and the year ended December 31, 2004, based on a monthly calculation, were $396,755 and $1,235,080, respectively. The fair value of these commodity interests, including options thereon, if applicable, at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, were $531,906 and $2,284,845, respectively. Fair values for exchange traded commodity futures and options are based on quoted market prices for those futures and options. Fair values for all other financial instruments for which market quotations are not readily available are based on calculations approved by the General Partner.
4. Financial Instrument Risks:
In the normal course of its business, the Partnership is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments. These financial instruments may include forwards, futures and options, whose values are based upon an underlying asset, index, or reference rate, and generally represent future commitments to exchange currencies or cash flows, to purchase or sell other financial instruments at specific terms at specified future dates, or, in the case of derivative commodity instruments, to have a reasonable possibility to be settled in cash, through physical delivery or with another financial instrument. These instruments may be traded on an exchange or over-the-counter ("OTC"). Exchange traded instruments are standardized and include futures and certain option contracts. OTC contracts are negotiated between contracting parties and include forwards and certain options.
Each of these instruments is subject to various risks similar to those related to the underlying financial instruments including market and credit risk. In general, the risks associated with OTC contracts are greater than those associated with exchange traded instruments because of the greater risk of default by the counterparty to an OTC contract.
Market risk is the potential for changes in the value of the financial instruments traded by the Partnership due to market changes, including interest and foreign exchange rate movements and fluctuations in commodity or security prices. Market risk is directly impacted by the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the related underlying assets are traded.
Credit risk is the possibility that a loss may occur due to the failure of a counterparty to perform according to the terms of a contract. Credit risk with respect to exchange traded instruments is reduced to the extent that an exchange or clearing organization acts as a counterparty to the transactions. The Partnership's risk of loss in the event of counterparty default is typically limited to the amounts recognized as unrealized appreciation in the statements of financial condition and not represented by the contract or notional amounts of the instruments. The Partnership has credit risk and concentration risk because the sole counterparty or broker with respect to the Partnership's assets is CGM.
The General Partner monitors and controls the Partnership's risk exposure on a daily basis through financial, credit and risk management monitoring systems, and accordingly believes that it has effective procedures for evaluating and limiting the credit and market risks to which the Partnership is subject.

These monitoring systems allow the General Partner to statistically analyze actual trading results with risk-adjusted performance indicators and correlation statistics. In addition, on-line monitoring systems provide account analysis of futures, forwards and options positions by sector, margin requirements, gain and loss transactions and collateral positions.
The majority of these instruments mature within one year of March 31, 2005. However, due to the nature of the Partnership's business, these instruments may not be held to maturity.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Partnership does not engage in the sale of goods or services. Its only assets are its equity in its commodity futures trading account, consisting of cash, net unrealized appreciation on open futures and forward contracts and interest receivable. Because of the low margin deposits normally required in commodity futures trading, relatively small price movements may result in substantial losses to the Partnership. While substantial losses could lead to a substantial decrease in liquidity, no such losses occurred in the Partnership's first quarter of 2005.
The Partnership's capital consists of the capital contributions of the partners as increased or decreased by realized and/or unrealized gains or losses on commodity futures trading, expenses, interest income, redemptions of Redeemable Units and distributions of profits, if any.
For the three months ended March 31, 2005, Partnership capital decreased 21.9% from $21,523,337 to $16,818,279. This decrease was attributable to a net loss from operations of $4,401,031 and the redemption of 38 Redeemable Units resulting in an outflow of $304,027. Future redemptions can impact the amount of funds available for investment in commodity contract positions in subsequent months.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
All commodity interests (including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments) are used for trading purposes. The commodity interests are recorded on trade date and open contracts are recorded in the statements of financial condition at fair value on the last business day of the period, which represents market value for those commodity interests for which market quotations are readily available or other measures of fair value deemed appropriate by management of the General Partner for those commodity interests and foreign currencies for which market quotations are not readily available. Investments in commodity interests denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates prevailing on the last business day of the period. Realized gains (losses) and changes in unrealized values on open positions are recognized in the period in which the contract is closed or the changes occur and are included in net gains (losses) on trading of commodity interests.
Foreign currency contracts are those contracts where the Partnership agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of foreign currency for an agreed-upon price on an agreed future date. Foreign currency contracts are valued daily, and the Partnership's net equity therein, representing unrealized gain or loss on the contracts as measured by the difference between the forward foreign exchange rates at the date of entry into the contracts and the forward rates at the reporting dates, is included in the statement of financial condition. Realized gains (losses) and changes in unrealized values on foreign currency contracts are recognized in the period in which the contract is closed or the changes occur and are included in the statements of income and expenses and partners' capital.
Results of Operations
During the Partnership's first quarter of 2005 the net asset value per Redeemable unit decreased 20.4% from $10,057.19 to $8,000.72 as compared to an increase of 4.4% in the first quarter of 2004. The Partnership experienced a net trading loss before brokerage commissions and related fees in the first quarter of 2005 of $4,202,742. Losses were primarily attributable to the trading of commodity futures in currencies, grains, non-U.S. interest rates, metals and indices and were partially offset by gains in energy, U.S. interest rates, livestock and softs. The Partnership experienced a net trading gain before brokerage commissions and related fees in the first quarter of 2004 of $1,310,040. Gains were primarily attributable to the trading of commodity futures in energy, grains, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates, metals and indices and were partially offset by losses in currencies, livestock, and softs.
Results for the first quarter were highlighted by uneven trading performance in volatile energy and financial markets and resulted in effectively giving back much of the gains from the fourth quarter 2004.
12
Trends that had emerged in late December continued to effect performance in January. Energy price increases, particularly in crude oil and natural gas, that had produced profits through much of the last third of 2004, initially weakened against advisor's positions, then later regained strength, ended higher and produced the most profits among the various sectors for the quarter.
Alternatively, currency trading, which had generated profits consistently in 2004, produced the quarter's greatest losses, as the decline of the U.S. dollar began to reverse its decline and moved back to the low 130s in relation to the Euro. This move was particularly disruptive in January and continued as the markets produced no identifiable direction through much of the quarter. Trading in interest rate contracts was mixed with small gains in U.S. contracts and larger losses in non-U.S. positions. Stock indices showed some strength in February but not sufficient to offset losses in January and March. Metals and agricultural trading followed U.S. dollar patterns with positions in losses in grains and metals offsetting smaller gains in softs and livestock.
Commodity futures markets are highly volatile. The potential for broad and rapid price fluctuations increases the risks involved in commodity trading but also increases the possibility of profit. The profitability of the Partnership depends on the existence of major price trends and the ability of the Advisor to correctly identify those price trends. Price trends are influenced by, among other things, changing supply and demand relationships, weather, governmental, agricultural, commercial and trade programs and policies, national and international political and economic events and changes in interest rates. To the extent that market trends exist and the Advisor is able to identify them, the Partnership expects to increase capital through operations.
Interest income on 80% of the Partnership's daily equity maintained in cash was earned at the monthly average 13-week U.S. Treasury bill yield. CGM may continue to maintain the Partnership's assets in cash and/or place all of the Partnership's assets in 90-day Treasury bills and pay the Partnership 80% of the interest earned on the Treasury bills purchased. CGM will retain 20% of any interest earned on Treasury bills. Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2005 increased by $55,927, as compared to the corresponding period in 2004. Interest income increased during the first quarter of 2005 due to higher interest rates as compared to the corresponding period in 2004.
Brokerage commissions are based on the number of trades executed by the Advisor. Brokerage commissions and fees for the three months ended March 31, 2005 increased by $75,721, as compared to the corresponding period in 2004. The increase in commissions and fees is primarily due to a higher number of round turns, during the three months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the corresponding period in 2004.
Incentive fees are based on the new trading profits generated by the Advisor as defined in the advisory agreement between the Partnership, the General Partner and the Advisor. There were no incentive fees earned during the first quarter of 2005. Trading performance for the three months ended March 31, 2004 resulted in incentive fees of $207,609.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
The Partnership is a speculative commodity pool. The market sensitive instruments held by it are acquired for speculative trading purposes, and all or substantially all of the Partnership's assets are subject to the risk of trading loss. Unlike an operating company, the risk of market sensitive instruments is integral, not incidental, to the Partnership's main line of business.
Market movements result in frequent changes in the fair value of the Partnership's open positions and, consequently, in its earnings and cash flow. The Partnership's market risk is influenced by a wide variety of factors, including the level and volatility of interest rates, exchange rates, equity price levels, the value of financial instruments and contracts, the diversification effects among the Partnership's open positions and the liquidity of the markets in which it trades.
The Partnership rapidly acquires and liquidates both long and short positions in a wide range of different markets. Consequently, it is not possible to predict how a particular future market scenario will affect performance, and the Partnership's past performance is not necessarily indicative of its future results.
Value at Risk is a measure of the maximum amount which the Partnership could reasonably be expected to lose in a given market sector. However, the inherent uncertainty of the Partnership's speculative trading and the recurrence in the markets traded by the Partnership of market movements far exceeding expectations could result in actual trading or non-trading losses far beyond the indicated Value at Risk or the Partnership's experience to date (i.e., "risk of ruin"). In light of the foregoing as well as the risks and uncertainties intrinsic to all future projections, the inclusion of the quantification in this section should not be considered to constitute any assurance or representation that the Partnership's losses in any market sector will be limited to Value at Risk or by the Partnership's attempts to manage its market risk.
Exchange maintenance margin requirements have been used by the Partnership as the measure of its Value at Risk. Maintenance margin requirements are set by exchanges to equal or exceed the maximum losses reasonably expected to be incurred in the fair value of any given contract in 95%-99% of any one-day interval. Maintenance margin has been used rather than the more generally available initial margin, because initial margin includes a credit risk component, which is not relevant to Value at Risk.
14
The following table indicates the trading Value at Risk associated with the Partnership's open positions by market category as of March 31, 2005 and the highest, lowest and average values during the three months ended March 31, 2005. All open position trading risk exposures of the Partnership have been included in calculating the figures set forth below. As of March 31, 2005, the Partnership's total capitalization was $16,818,279. There has been no material change in the trading Value at Risk information previously disclosed in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The following information supplements and amends our discussion set forth under Part I, Item 3 "Legal Proceedings" in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004.
Enron Corp.
In April 2005, Citigroup, along with other financial institution defendants, reached an agreement-in-principle to settle four state-court actions brought by various investment funds, which were not previously consolidated or coordinated with the NEWBY action. The four cases are OCM OPPORTUNITIES FUND III, L.P., et al. v. CITIGROUP INC., et al.; PACIFIC INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT CO. LLC, et al. v. CITIGROUP INC., et al.; AUSA LIFE INSURANCE v. CITIGROUP INC., et al. and PRINCIPAL GLOBAL INVESTORS v. CITIGROUP INC., et al. The amounts to be paid in settlement of these actions are covered by existing litigation reserves.
Dynegy Inc.
The court had previously denied lead plaintiff's motion for leave to amend; no appeal was yet timely while the remainder of the case remained pending. On April 15, 2005, as part of a global settlement involving all defendants, Citigroup entered into a memorandum of understanding to settle this case. The amount to be paid in settlement is covered by existing litigation reserves.
WorldCom, Inc.
The District Court approved the settlement of the IN RE TARGETS SECURITIES LITIGATION on April 22, 2005.
Global Crossing
The plaintiffs and the Citigroup Related Defendants have entered into a definitive settlement agreement in the IN RE GLOBAL CROSSING, LTD SECURITIES LITIGATION; the settlement was preliminarily approved by the Court on March 8, 2005. The amount to be paid in settlement is covered by existing litigation reserves.
Research
Two putative class actions against CGMI asserting common law claims on behalf of CGMI customers in connection with published investment research have been dismissed by United States District Courts, the dismissals of which were affirmed by the United States Court of Appeals for the Third and Ninth Circuits, respectively. Plaintiffs in the Ninth Circuit case have sought review by the United States Supreme Court; their petition for a writ of certiorari, which CGMI opposed, is pending before that court.
Mutual Funds
CGMHI entered into a settlement with the SEC with respect to revenue sharing and sales of classes of funds.
Investigations of Euro Zone Government Bonds Trade
The German prosecutors have declined to take any actions against the employees in connection with this matter.
