COLOR ON OVTI

September 25, 2012

This post was just published on ZYX Buy Change OVTI is running down for two reasons. First in sympathy with Apple, and second on rumors that OVTI camera is not in iPhone 5.

Those who are short-term trading oriented may consider letting the stop hit and exiting the position. Those who are long-term oriented but not willing to take the risk

If an imperfection could have been humanly prevented, Jobs prevented it. Because of his penchant for perfection, Jobs was not very popular, some even called him a jerk. The kind of fortitude Steve Jobs had for perfection seems
