$67.62

Though I am not losing any money right now, my expectations have not been met with 3M and Xerox. Aramark is the one that is doing well and looks like it’s going to keep on rising as far as the trend is concern. I will stick with these and maybe take some money out of the other 2 and invest it in Aramark.
