Most Recent Note - 5/14/2018 1:22:14 PM Y - Color code is changed to yellow with pivot point cited based on its 4/26/18 high after an advanced "3-weeks tight" base pattern. No resistance remains due to overhead supply, and today's big volume-driven gain in the wake of a new Supreme Court ruling on sports betting has it galloping to a new all-time high. Reported earnings +646% on +13% sales revenues for the Mar '18 quarter. Its up and down annual earnings (A criteria) history was previously noted as a concern with regard to the strict fact-based investment system's guidelines. Its small supply of only 13.5 million shares (S criteria) outstanding can contribute to greater price volatility in the event of institutional buying or selling.
