Yeah great news! Nice to see the stock perk up this afternoon. I gladly added some shares today. MGCD started a big turnaround with their Q3 results. And the stock is still way under the radar.
I think MGCD is an excellent hold into their Q4 report next month. Should be a terrific bottom line comp with earnings of .20+/share vs. a loss last year. If that happens, this low floater could be headed to double digits.
