Nice day in the market. I returned to see a big jump in my port.:-)

My order for MUZE didn't fill, put in an after hours also. Don't know on that one yet but if I don't I'll put in another order tomorrow. I do like it Dale. Thanks

DIGL, another good day. Earning are due out Tuesday, rumors are that they will beat the numbers, also rampant rumors on a split. Take your pick on the split rumors, 2-1, 3-2, and 3-1 seem to be the most popular ones. Actually they need a split to help handle the wild swings. Chart looks really strong.

HATH also a good day and nice pop.

:-)

Thanks for the info on MUZE. Their technology sounds interesting, and I'll try to give it a closer look. What is the story with their revenue history? It looks like they fell off precipitously last year.
