Dave's Short Term POW Portfolio

Note: I've changed the rules a bit this week, trying to make them fair and simple.
I've decided to use O'Neil in his book "How to make money in stocks" as a guide.
RULES:
1) Position opens at (high+low)/2 price on date recommended
2) Position closes when
a) target is hit,
b) 3 months passes, or
c) stock goes down 10%, whichever comes first
3) Positions open with $1000

OPEN:

Portfolio Value Basis: $ 16,000.00
Gain/Loss: $ 2,485 15.5%

Weeks since first pick: 17
Annualized return: 47.4%

Notes
-----
MTON has no short term or intermediate target; hence it is not included at
all in the short term portfolio.
RECY had no short term target. I am using 6 (100% gain) as the short term
target.
HURC had no short term target. I closed the position after 3 months.
AMVC & QUST will be included next week.
