Jeez. I'm just not getting it. I've been following the company for close to 10 years and if ever there appeared to be a time to invest in it, it would seem like it is now. All of the fat has been trimmed from the company along with the totally clueless and useless board of directors. With them goes all of the accrued debt obligation from their unpaid fees and other compensation. The company now has cash to sustain it from the Amiron sale from which the director draws only a modest salary. Two potentially big near-term halloysite applications are becoming commercialized, that as an additive for a foaming agent application and that as part of an anticorrosive metal coating, each of which alone could be a significant revenue source. The company just won a >$1M phase 2 DOE grant for an amazing anode battery technology which has been validated in testing and research has been published showing benefit from the use of halloysite in battery membranes, separators (if these are different from membranes) and in solid state lithium-sulfur batteries. Granted, historically management has sucked figuratively as well as literally, as in sucked the life and soul out of the company, but so far, the new CEO has been fairly true to his word. Yeah, the pace of information flow recently has been worse than terrible but in comparison to previous years, it has been a veritable cascade. In previous years, the stock would launch for absolutely immaterial reasons yet now, tangible progress and substantial news can't overcome gravity and move the stock price upward. With the influx of capital alone the stock seems dirt cheap. Add the newly commercialized applications and the potential from the battery application(s), at the current share price, I would be accruing everything that I could get my hands on (and, of course, afford to lose) as it wouldn't take much to see tremendous share appreciation. If things continue to play out positively, hopefully, we will never see anything like these prices again.
