Long ISLE (Isle of Capri Casinos - Entertainment)
From the earnings beat MRQ with recent upward estimate revisions screen. I bought some shares last December. The last two days the stock lost a lot of ground but its still trading above the 50 day and 200 day moving averages. I'm not sure if the death knell is tolling or if this is a buying opportunity. |

DSKX (long) DS Healthcare Group, Inc. This stock closed on Friday at $4.66 And it's had a very strong uptrend; I'm hoping it'll last another 5 market days. It's into skin care and personal care products. Founded 1/26/2007 Hdq. in Pompano Beach, FL. 46 employees. Revenue 13.41 mil. 52 wk. high/low $4.96/$.56
....and Clark, I thoroughly enjoyed the name you gave me last week (post 29)......"the red hot architecto25" When I was instructing jets for the air force, I never got that title ... we were sometimes called "hot dogs" ....and this was in 1957, 2 years before commercial jets started flying citizens. |

Close race for top three, so expect changes with two days to go. Will depend largely on the market trend. Try to close ahead of the BenchMark.

Market down 2:30 pm EST. Make a comeback or further trouble? Not too long to go today.
Looks like ISLE is "on fire" today and clarkrl happy with his pick.

Look out below, AMD just "plopped". Drat, probably will not come close to BenchMark.  |
