Review of Purchases Oct 19- 23

This week we bought CEO & ATVI. We purchased these particular stocks because after doing some reaserch and found that there were some hot new games coming out that we felt wouldmake our stock prices rise. And for our reason for buying CEO was that it was doing a little poor for a few days and we saw some room for improval in the company.
