Bought Some More Nanosphere (NSPH) at 0.42 $Pi ($1.32)

Added to our Nanosphere (NSPH) holdings today (02014.06.09) buying NSPH at 0.42 $Pi ($1.32). NSPH has been a terrible investment for the GDT::Portfolio, but I like Nanosphere's line of business. It's possible molecular diagnostic testing is a key tool when it comes to the health care in the future.

Note: With respect to determining the buy price, I multiplied Pi by 0.42 and I picked 42% of Pi because 42 is the "Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything".
