Article Abstract:
Shares of BMC Industries Inc traded at 7 5/8 points, five times its 1991 earnings of $1.48 per share, even as the medium technology manufacturer improved profits in four of the five years since 1987. Profits for the first half of 1992 increased to $3.66 million (64 cents per share) from $2.37 million (43 cents) in the previous year. An improving US economy, sustained growth in its Peptech aperture mask and Vision Ease eyewear divisions and an upsurge in slumping German mask facility can boost BMC's performance in the last half of 1992.

Article Abstract:
Technology Solutions appeared confident despite a decline in its Aug first quarter earnings. Its stock rose by 2 5/8 after the trading week ended Nov 13, 1992 because of the market's renewed regard for computer technology stocks. The firm's stock valuation, however, has not approximated its high of 31. Technology Solutions posted higher Aug 1992 quater revenues and its client base also grew. The Wisconsin Investment Board and Dir John Purcell have reportedly increased their interests in the Chicago-based computer systems designer.

Article Abstract:
Radius Inc has not fully recovered from the 40% price decline caused by its statement that earnings for fiscal 4th qtr Sep 1992 would be significantly lower than FY 1991's 13 cents per share. The decline was also aggravated by the resignation of Pres and CEO Barry Folsom. Gruber and McBaine Capital Mangement, however, acquired 540,000 shares between Jul 13, 1992 and Sep 15, 1992, raising its holdings to 1.2 million shares. Analyst Ben Huston remains bullish about the stock while Bruce Lupatkin has a more guarded outlook.
