StocksandStouts:
It is good to see our companies growing and overtaking some legacy companies. I think it is interesting that of the companies being added, three are cybersecurity companies. One thing that they all have in common is that they offer innovative solutions, and are providing the services now that we will be using for the foreseeable future. Innovation and execution are a winning combination.
