Today's report is not good. ELTE reported a 50% increase in earnings this morning......Not.. quite.. good... enough... as the stock cratered 4 pts to 10. Unfortunately it gapped down and the best I could do with 10k shs wuz 10.55..for about an 18% loss.....Oh well taketh the bad wit the good. Spent the afternoon at the dentist gettin drilled ....for the second time in one day. To make matters worse BEL which I sold last week @ 7.60 [about ] reported spectacular earnings and closed today @ 9.50 for a third drilling in one day .
