PyroGenesis Inc > THE BEAN COUNTERS HAVE SPOKEN

THE BEAN COUNTERS HAVE SPOKEN

Yesterday, in a coordinated effort, two of them went to great lengths to try to show how Pyro's WCD was pretty much an incontrovertible problem that dooms Pyro. 
 
I disagreed and I still disagree.  No question it's an important issue. Very important. But it's not the doomsday, avoid at all costs, problem that it was being made out to be. Bean counters love their numbers but often can only see the numbers. 
 
You must go behind the number and look to see what's going on with that number. By doing so you are , in fact, acknowledging the number. You aren't ignoring it. But you are giving it context, which I think separates a bean counter from a successful investor. 
 
I think these bean counters fail to understand the risk/reward calculation that is inherent to any decision to establish a position in a stock. When the risk is too great and outweighs a reward or is simply too great  regardless of any possible reward then obviously don't buy. I certainly stay away from this kind of investment.  I don't consider Pyro to be an investment where the risk outweighs the reward.  Detail on this point has been posted previously.

One last point regading the WBD of Pyro.  A very reasonable argument can be made that Pyro's is good considering all the circumstances.  It exists and it is an issue but considering what Pyro has accomplished in the past two years I'm impressed that it isn't bigger or has required larger equity input.  I'm confident.  Pyro's on track.

And finally, a few words about other comments made by Mostlyserious and/or GrahamB.  I am not part of a cabal of pumpers connected to some poster you mention.  I do my own thing and when appropriate I bounce things off of professionals.  I'm not punching above my weight class or drowning in bean counter details.  As I said, I get it and when I need help I contact professionals.  

You two and others can call me anything you want.  To date, I've been called baby, schmuck, Melissa, Merissa, arrogant, stupid and a few others that I can't remember of the top of my head.  Just don't call me late to the Pyro party when the really big stuff happens.  However,  if you want to call me something in the interim, how about Matilda.  It's a great name.  I'll call my boat Matida when Pyro pays off 

Far fewer posts now to address the bash.   But Long & Strong as always

Well said Melida, great post and completely agree. There is lots going on at PyroGenesis and lots to look forward to in the future.  PyroGenesis is gearing up for exponential growth for years to come.

Thank you ThinkBig. The first item is very pertinent regarding my discussion about the way that some dismiss the balance sheet.  And IMO that item should have been updated as opposed to been carried as a cut-and-pasted for so long. The udpate could have been based on the June 2024 news release, or updated if there were changes.  Excerpt of that news release includes: "The ...more

I am not part of any group nor ever engaging in a any "coordinated effort" for anything.  As long as you or any other poster falsely alleges so, it speaks to your judgment and chips away at the credibility and strength of any other views. i have clearly articulated my position of what the financial statements show.  Doom-and-gloom is not the final conclusion, the final ...more

I agree with this Mostly Serious I had thought Melida might be reasonable at first , and have a evidence based discussion. In fact, she has resorted to name calling, false assumptions , and cherry picking data.
Comment by GrahamB on Nov 11, 2024 12:03pm
Long winded righteous statements  won't change the facts that PYR has poor business execution manifested in financials that objectively show growing debt, negative Working capital, negative shareholder equity, liquidity issues, and no profitability and growing accounts receivable. These aren't open for debate. These are facts, provided by the company, and are verifiable through SEDAR. ...more

Will get back to you after I confer with my "cabal of pumpers"   Won't be for a few months or so.  Your patronizing posts are now low priority

... but yet you keep responding.
Comment by Pyritetrap on Nov 11, 2024 5:07pm
Yes, she promised us that she was going to stop posting today, but unfortunately, we still have to keep reading her condescending posts. Then again, I must be such an idiot, I keep reading them. Maybe she's right, maybe we are all idiots.Maybe we should ignore the financials and follow her down the yellow brick road to the wizard of oz where we will be rewarded with riches.

OttoVonB & ParrotHead share a brain.  And between the two of them they can't grow a pair (of brain cells).   Didn't say I would stop posting.  As required, I will continue to speak truth to stupidity & bash.
