Rather be at .49 and drop to .44 than be at $1 and drop to .50! Simple statement, I know, but the following puts it into perspective (I hope):
I get those not wanting to see any regressions in the stock price at all. I get those wanting to see the continued “walking up” of the stock price. I get all those with their “KBLB fatigue.” We ALL know the potential of KBLB and how close it is to achieving the Holy Grail: Commercialization of Spider Silk on a Mass Scale. AND WE WANT IT NOW! For how long we’ve waited. For how much we’ve invested. For our own personal validation for supporting the stock. But, we must remember one thing: THERE IS A COMPANY BEHIND KBLB.
I’ll give you a few key things to look at for those in on KBLB, regardless of what the current market fluctuations may mean:
1) KBLB is on the verge of being the first to Commercialize Spider Silk on a Mass Scale
2) In the process of doing the above, protections have to be put in place
3) Protections against future regressions for THE COMPANY as a whole.
4) Those protections ARE NOT for the current stock price.
5) Those protections ARE FOR the future sustainability of THE COMPANY.
IMO, KBLB execs are doing exactly what they should be doing. Some may not like to hear that. Especially when they’re looking to cash out. But, that’s fine. Whether you’re long or short, take heed:
I’ve referenced this in the past, but, let’s take a closer look at why it’s better to “slow-walk” this thing than to build up the current stock price as we’re building the company (even though the stock price is moving along just fine, IMO).
Let’s assume we bust our tails to just get some product out to prove to the world we can Mass Produce! That’s all great and good. The stock price will soar on the news and we KBLB-holders will be planning our immediate retirements and shareholder P-A-R-T-Y (I suggest Vail!)!
But, wait…that’s it?!
We worked so hard to get the “first batch” delivered we failed to implement any processes and procedures to sustain production from there. The glitz and the glory are met with the “same old, same old” for KBLB as a regression is sure to ensue if product cannot be sustained.
Potential worst case scenario: Unanticipated production delays and frequent hitches at critical parts of the operation and logistics chain create late and missed deliveries. NOT ONLY that, but, we begin to see the expiration of product batches which will undoubtedly create UNEXPECTED COSTS for the company.
IMO, if we aren’t seamlessly producing and supplying after that first batch, we could see a negative regression in the company and stock price which may be hard to recover from.
Quite frankly, though, I cannot see that happening. That would be the most nonsensical approach to everything put into the company to this point.
To me, that’s where we’re at right now with KBLB. They have the product. They are ready to Mass Produce. They have capital ready to support sustainability plans from there. The mentioning of Q3/Q4 for “the delivery of the first production batch of our recombinant spider silk thread, from this factory to one of our strategic market channel partners” by our COO, says we are moving forward in this direction. IT CANNOT AND WILL NOT STOP FROM THERE!
It can’t!
For the momentum to keep going, the company must ensure it can sustain production. That is where I believe they’re at in the process. As much as it may be affecting the stock price right now, it should be apparent they’re trying to ensure the sustainability of the company first. With sustainability confirmation, the stock price can settle itself into sustainability, as well. Until then, we play the waiting game and the ups and downs. But the reward in the end will be well worth it! IMHO, of course.
GLTA! Holding the Golden!!!
