10.5% gains were made on this one, not bad for about a one month period. I do plan on returning after the financial come out.
This thing tanked for apparently no reason at all, but it should bounce back hard once it finds bottom. This stock has been very successful for me in the past and I think it's going to make more money for investors soon.
