I’m in this stock initially because I read the reviews of their products, looked at the build quality, and what I saw meant a lot. My last penny stock was based on the hope of a new but unproven technology, but the CEO ended up being toxic, among other things. Lost a lot on that. I read about VTNL, but my gut on that is like, “weed products for pets, I mean, seems kinda hokey”. Here we have a solid, well made product with a CEO who appears to be passionate about his work. I’m concerned that he is apparently not too involved in the finance side, so I hope he isn’t lead astray by the bean counters. I’m trying a new strategy with this one, numbers matter, yes, but I’m looking more for a solid culture and pride in the product and workmanship of the employees.... getting back to old school American values, in a way. I’m a mechanical engineer in corporate America and my company made money hand over fist, but I question the basic values now. Pride of workmanship is not number one anymore. Its about short term stock gains and pc culture, actual product comes later. I don’t make a ton of money yet, I put a big bet, for me, on bbrw. I got in lower than most, though. But, as a manufacturing guy and engineer, I see well-made products with a loyal following and almost unanimous 5 star reviews. I mean, those are some nice looking welds! I’ll get behind that, I just hope they can figure out the financials and make me some money, also. Clearly I’m not a finance or stock guru. I’ve learned a lot though and appreciate any thoughtful viewpoints on PR’s, etc.
