Yeah, I'm real familiar with short sellers like Citron & QCM/Hindenburg and know how they operate and why they do what they do. It sure sucks when you're sitting on a stock that becomes one of their targets but OTOH it can be a blessing in disguise. If it's a pure manipulation play on their part then they create a buying opportunity that will pay off handsomely in the longer run. Thing is about QCM/Hindenburg is that there can be no dispute that sometimes their findings are so devastatingly valid that there is no ensuing recovery...several of their targets ended up DOA and rightfully so.

Sounds like you and mc have done your homework and have decided that in CVSI's case it is the former and not the latter so if you guys are correct you likely got no worries over the long haul. I hope that is the case because every time a story like this proves to be legit it's a ding on the entire sector that already has enough challenges as it is.

Wasn't really looking at Isodiol as a serious CBD investment...it's just that while deep diving on DeFrancesco this week I came across the name a few days ago. I went way back on this guy...back to around 2010 when he first showed up and began raising capital for some of his early energy companies like APO and P1 Energy. If you look hard enough you can find mention of companies he has been involved in either directly creating himself or at least becomes associated with and when you check out their price charts you'll see that time and time and time and time and time again they all end up looking just like Isodiol. And trust me when I say I left out a few "times" in that last sentence because I was starting to become repetitive...LOL.

As far as I can tell this DeFrancesco dude is a modern-day Dracula...he'll suck the life-blood out of a company and leave their investors dry and shriveled. Not saying that will happen to Aphria...only that if fraud can make an Enron or a WorldCom or a Tyco or a (insert favorite scam company here that is now defunct) it can sure as hell happen to Aphria. IMO, folks are greatly underestimating the possibility that could very well happen in this case. But that is just my opinion, obviously...folks are free to vote with their money.

Gotta say, feels a little refreshing to own a little stock in a company like Charlotte's Web that is actually making real money and isn't a shortie target and doesn't have a line of lawsuit lawyers pounding on their front door...LOL. Knock on wood!
