RE:So That Is What It Is? I feel you beenthere....I've been abused in another stock like to seem to have been here. Failed by management, outright lies. And lost a sh it ton of money on it.
however, I haven't let that, or them, stop me from making that loss back or from keeping an open mind about the company and its future. If the starts rearrange and begin to align I will put money back in in a heart beat as it would would be the smart play.
closing your mind and eyes to a stock because you feel harmed by the cie or worse, a poster on a stupid BB, then you are letting your emotions rule you decisions which is a recipe for disaster if you are truly 'investing'.
I would argue if you failed to buy shares in PTK in the 1-2$ range then you made a huge emotional error and have lost out on a double+ at worst as of today. All signs point to the future being massively bright and lucrative for POET.
letting you emotions stop you from ever touching this stock again is pure silliness, ImO.
good luck with your recovery and hope you can make back any losses you have in future endeavours.
