PMB...
I believe we have many of the same views. I, too, am incredibly disappointed, and somewhat confused.
Investors like us are accused of "not getting it". I believe that statement to be totally inaccurate.
What we "get" is that there are no significant sales to bolster an increase in share price. What we "get" is that there were claims made from before the production facility was completed that production runs would sell out. These aren't insignificant points of interest... these are the basis for the business.
The only facts that matter to a real investor are signed contracts and revenue flowing into the company. Until there is commercial success, investing in this company is speculation... at least in my opinion.
Vyta's opportunities sound promising. But, so did Nanopierce's. And so did Brunetti's. There is a revolving door of people who left Nanopierce.... people who at one time were promoted as being industry leaders. There were also people and companies associated early on with Vyta who have since dropped from the radar. The sad part with all of those cases is that there was never any feedback. That leaves the investors guessing as to what happened. Why were these relationships so important at one point, but so insignificant when they fell apart?
If someone wishes to attack me for my views, well... that is their prerogative. I just wish I were being attacked because I made false or inaccurate statements. Because my views are different than others here is no reason to tell me that I "don't get it". (Maybe that phrase hasn't been used to specifically refer to me; but, that has been the inference.) I'm not the one who has made overly optimistic claims about Vyta, Nanopierce, or Brunetti. I'm not the one who provides no follow-up (or post-mortem).
I respect the incredible knowledge of several posters here concerning Vyta's product. Do I tell them, however, that they "don't get it" because their optimistic views may be influencing other investors? NO, I don't. I do caution anyone considering investment in this venture to understand the level of risk. That level of risk remains incredibly high considering the lack of revenue, and the history of Vyta and Nanopierce.
IMHO
