RE: Profitable Co.

RE: Profitable Co.FOR THOSE WHO ARE UNAWARE, YET:

THE SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT REASON  VNP IS ALLOWED TO BUILD IN EUROPE IS BECAUSE THEY HAVE DEVELOPED A PROPRIETARY PROCESS BY WHICH THEY CAN/WILL RECYCLE CADMIUM AND SELL IT TO THIN-FILM PV MARKET...EFFECTIVELY REDUCING THE HARMFUL EFFECT CADMIUM DISPOSAL HAS ON THE ENVIRONMENT (INCL. HUMANITY). VNP, IN ESSENCE, IS A RECYCLER OF  CADMIUM.

I think we are all aware of this. What is an issue is whether or not it will continue to be allowed in the thin film market. That is the crux of the matter. If you take away the market, you don't need the recycling for it's use.

It is just something that has to be taken into consideration with this investment. Anyway, good luck to all. I have made my decision for the time being. I may be back but at this point felt it too much of a gamble. Easy to come back with the way the SP has been moving.
