I have something different for you in the video department today … a special clip from Dick Davis Digests Editor Chloe Lutts.

Stocks discussed: Intuitive Surgical (ISRG), Nuance Communications (NUAN), Buffalo Wild Wings (BWLD), Tesla Motors (TSLA), Under Armour (UA), Estee Lauder (EL) and SolarWinds (SWI).
