The Bot Brief

"There is no force on earth more powerful than an idea whose time has come."     

- Victor Hugo

Bots in the News:

Both the Bot Index and the S & P 500 posted minimal positive returns in last week’s trading. Within the Bot composite there was only one stock that showed exceptional strength and that was Oceaneering International. The stock gained 7.23% in part due to rising oil prices and a Wall Street firm that valued the company at $29.25. The stock started the week at $24.52.

The loser column among the bots was likewise benign with only Tesla’s 4% slip noting any movement.
