RE:RE:Big Deal
RE:RE:Big DealOne interesting aspect of that post for me is that it also shows the volatility. Less than 2 months after you wrote that I bought my first shares at 55 cents. It has since become the biggest holding in my portfolio. I haven't been up to the challenge of finding enough other 10 baggers to keep XBC from being too overweight. However, there are worse problems in life than having an unbalanced portfolio.

Do yourselves a favour and average up on this puppy. When it reaches a buck it will qualify for the list of the TSE's biggest percentage gainers on the day. There will come a time when it will be on that list regularly. That will increase visibility markedly. I have often said that there will come a time when people selling at these levels will kick themselves for having done so. If you're reading this the chances are you own this stock. There will also come a time when you will kick yourself for not having bought more. You will be thinking "What the hell was I thinking. It was staring me in the face and I didn't act. What an idiot. I could have bought size for peanuts. I'd be on easy street!" I once had a doctor client who called me and asked what stock he was up the most in. I asked him why and he said he had to buy his wife a new car. I told him he'd be better off selling his worst performer because he could carry the loss forward indefinitely. That's the typical investor mentality. People sell their winners and pat themselves on the back for having made a profit. They keep their losers hoping to break even. Precisely the wrong thing to do. They end up with a portfolio full of their worst performers. Human nature countervails investment success. This stock is going to rock and roll. Buy more and set yourself apart from the maddening crowd. It will change your life. Obviously i cant guarantee that. I can only assure you that im right.
When I posted that, the only ones on this board were RandomMaker, Ciao, midard, kulewater, and myself. It was November 21st, 2017. The stock was 73 cents. The point I was making is as applicable today as it was then.
