RBOT receives FDA approval. Stock is making a nice move (up 23%).

Jim,

Darned if I know, based on normal valuations this company is a mess. It is essentially a venture fund that holds investments in a number of developmental companies. If they own more than 50 percent then they get to report the revenues of the start up companies as their own. If not, they it does not show up at all. Revenues are meaningless for the most part, because you don't know where it came from. Speculation would be Charlottes Web is finally shipping and making design wins. Charlottes Web competes again JNPR, CSCO and AVCI. The rest of the companies run across a spectrum of areas. On paper it has $2.97 of cash, but it has a 100 mil convertible bond issue outstanding. No ideas of burn rate per Q as they use their money to invest in start ups. They hold 90 percent of LMNE shares, but the price is so low that MRVC is buying back the 10 percent they just spun out.

Technically, 50 day EMA at 4.38, then resistance at 5.50 and 7.0.

I would say a floor is in place at 3.00 till after earnings.

Jim,

Break down of MRVC holdings. Remember the IPO market needs to improve before these holding become worth anything.
