One can always make money. There are two sides to every trade.
Lately, I'm an options player and MVIS is out of the game. Mostly I'm 'playing' precious metals/oil and putting profits into bullion, food and ammunition.
If you look at my history here, you'll see how long I've followed Microvision. I even have a killer app in the works for their eyeware when they bring it to market (someday).
I don't make anticipatory 'bets' anymore, but rather just buy weakness and sell strength.
Your mileage may vary. Good luck.
