I have been comparing ADF (DRX) with Bird Construction (BDT) who operate in roughly the same Engineering and construction services (but ADF has the robotic advantage) and are profitable.
Here are the performances of both :-

BDT 0.40 -6.44 -13.49 -14.00 18.55 55.82 111.07
DRX 7.60 -14.40 -27.27 -45.00 34.31 66.72 136.98

Market manipulation or something else?
