Most Recent Note for MBTF - 9/16/2016 12:38:07 PM Pulled back from its 52-week high with volume-driven losses, yet finding prompt support today near its 50 DMA line. Reported earnings +80% on +13% sales revenues for the Jun '16 quarter.

Low-priced stocks are discouraged from consideration unless all key criteria are solidly satisfied.
