"Why invest in GTCB at all for that kind of risk-to-reward?"

I am beginning to wonder that myself although my position in GTCB currently is greater than ever. This is definitely not a sexy stock currently but I consider it to be a very good place to park some money during these turbulent market times.

All kidding aside, GTCB has very low risk at this price and a very promising upside for the future. The problem with it is akin to GaAs Vs Silicon in semiconductors. GaAs was the semiconductor of the future, is the semiconductor of the future, and seems like it will always be the semiconductor of the future while Silicon continues to bask in its glory as the choice semiconductor for the industry...
