It is the second time he has owned it. They are now looking at strategic alternatives. Every year they were losing money until recently. They may get taken over and it would be over $2. They have taken care of lowering a number of their expenses.

TOP PICK

Digital technology for eBooks and so on. It has a very spiky chart. All of a sudden news comes out on it and it jumps. They moved into insurance. It will jump at some point.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick June 28/16. Down 36%.) This was a bad pick all along. About every 3 years it has a spike, and the last one was around 2012 so it is now overdue. He is waiting for a catalyst. They have very little debt. It could take some tax loss selling before the end of the year, and he has it on his Buy list. Does digitization and a lot in the Tech Arena.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Sept 22/16. Down 46%.) Has been horrible, but this has a tendency to pop about every 3 years. They do digitalization for e-books, etc. When you listen to conference calls, it always sounds like they are going to be doing really well. Unfortunately, on the last conference call, they seemed to lose their confidence to some degree. There is a reasonable chance it could come down further in the tax loss season. Remains on his watch list, and he continues to buy it. Wouldn't be buying this today or tomorrow, but would wait to see if there is more tax loss selling.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Dec 22/16. Down 50%.) This deals with digitalization, things like e-books. On the conference calls, they are always super optimistic. In the last 2 conference calls, they weren’t. Sales have flatlined and they’ve been losing money. Expects that over the next 5 weeks there will be tax loss selling on this. He is happy to hold it, but it probably won’t pay off for quite a while.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Dec 22/16. Down 48%.) Just announced they are setting up a committee which is going to really look at operations and the board. He is happy to hold this, but there is not a lot to get excited about.

TOP PICK

They help corporations in the space. It is a boring company. They lose a little bit of money. They are looking to sell off some of the divisions, some activists are saying to sell the whole company. It could get taken out at quite a premium.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct 22/18, Down 8%) He owned this year's ago. It used to have a tendency to spike in a few years. It is one of the most boring businesses -- digitizing data. Management has not changed for over 15 years. The conference calls have not been full of optimism, but he will continue to keep it on his buy list.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Dec 24/18, Down 21%) He still owns this. About every three years this stock seems to have a major upward spike. It has missed the cycle this go round. The company is into digitization. They need to do something that is news worthy. They are in too many fields for his liking. He will continue to hold it and wait.
PARTIAL SELL

It's become very expensive. Take some profits.
