Yikes, the mood is quite grim at the moment.  

Not that you care why other people have hung around, but I’m of the opinion that “step change” or “disruptive” technology is compelling, and that the wait could be worth it. This is my “swing for the fences” stock, and I’m OK if I whiff.  

Have I missed out on the weed train?  Yes.  But, be careful.  What’s your exit strategy there?  Almost half of all Canadian Canabis consumers still buy from the black market. There will come a point when there’s too much supply, and not enough demand.  

The reason why I blissfully hold POET is because of the need for speed.  It’s not a lessening need either...it continues to be a huge issue.

So I shall tune out the noise and continue to dream of a day when POET Technologies is a bonifide solution for companies like Amazon and Google.
