Hello hdrjr!

Thanks for your response.

It was tough choosing between GLBL and HOFF. The results that your chart displayed were part of the reason I chose HOFF. In my simplistic style of analysis, I thought that HOFF was lagging and would provide a greater rate of return going forward, provided the company executes their business plan.

In a rotation environment, it seems that the lower priced stocks show greater rates of return. Of course when the market turns, they go down more quickly too.

I was looking for a short term play that would maximize return, I thought HOFF might be the better choice in that scenario.

If I were a wealthy man, I would have purchased both! One for a short term play, the other for a longer term hold. I believe GLBL is the better play for someone wanting to wait until LT gains apply.

Best of luck,
dabum
