    thanks, y i aksed this question regargind LUM is at 1.28 . Is it good to buy it now ?

    Also I can hold onto it for 15 days , but then is it okay to do so given the situation of crunch right now ?

    I am just hoping to get a margin of atleast a $1 , so that I can feel i too can win which never happened so far

    Buy LUM when it goes back under a buck, HCM and DFC look good and they have not run yet. LUM had 1 heck of a run time for a pull back imo
