BCV Stock News Headlines

New breed of trader (Wall Street hates us?)
Wall Street big wigs and old-money bankers can’t touch this 1 type of stock. And that opens the door for traders like you and me. They couldn’t touch this tech stock that ran from $1.50 to $98.40 in a week. Great – more for us. They wouldn’t touch this little-known imaging company. That’s fine – my friends and I were happy to ride it from $6 to $35 over breakfast.
