Waiting for a slightly better entry point to put real capital to work here. BGC is a bet on the continued global industrial expansion and the revamping of our and others grid. As high speed internet penetrates more markets I believe BGC will stand to gain here as well. The management team is top notch. BGC develops, designs, markets, and distributes its products helping take the middle man out of much of the business.
