CryoPort Inc (CYRX)

[hyperopia]

So the stock goes down and it’s the CEO’s fault, and now it went up because Rob was promoting it? (“with support from Needham, Janney, Cowen, Roth”) Haha - good one. I know you can’t be serious, but you almost had me there for a second. The inclusion in the Russell Indexes didn’t have as much to do with all the volume or price rise?

I get what you are saying, and agree to a certain extent. I guess it comes down to ones expectations and perspective. Many small, developmental-stage companies have mediocre management teams and are more concerned with running the operation and growing the business than the short-term stock price. While I have been critical of management’s greed and lack of communication, I do think they’re signing important clients, forming the critical partnerships, and building the foundation that can support long-term growth. I think that Cryoport will eventually have explosive growth, but it’s looking less likely that it will be in 2019 as I previously thought. Investors were misled to believe that lucrative revenue from BP outsourcing and multiple gene therapy contracts were going to fully ramp by the end of this year and next. So I would rather have a CEO that under promises and over delivers..
