HOLD

Not a small cap company today. Their last quarterly earnings got squeezed hard. He likes the management team and continues to hold it. He hopes management will be able to prove themselves over the next couple of quarters.

He has a large holding in this. Operationally the company has done well, but the multiple is not cheap. He will continue to hold.

HOLD

He has not followed this on-line gaming company too closely. If you hold it, continue to as they seem to be able to defend their market position.

BUY

Despite the recent disappointing earnings, he continues to like holding it. A recent acquisition was quite sizable and he thinks this will allow earnings growth to continue. It may become a good take-over target and he likes the business model.
