"the trolls keep swiping".
Well....as far as I can see there is nothing fine and dandy about AVB continuing to "build the business" when shareholders don't get to enjoy the party. I'm pretty sure the reason most people are in the share market - and more specifically into sub-10c stocks - is because they are looking for multi-bagger opportunities....
Despite the thorough and accurate sectoral & geographic analysis a few people have provided over many years, this DOG has
never justified the rose coloured research/commentary that has been bestowed upon it.
Not over the past year; the past 2 years; the past 3 years; or the past 4 years.
In fact, the AVB party ended over 4 years ago, possibly around the time a few highly vocal flag-wavers entered the stock.
Let's go back to the 31st march 2012 for some context. On that day,
AVB closed at 9.5c - a virtual low point given that over the
preceding 15 months the stock's volume weighted average price was
12.1c (1st Jan-11 to 31st Mar-12).
In the exactly 1,500 days since - right up until today's closing price/volume - AVB has been a massive disappointment that not a single person can deny.
1,500 days - 2.69 billion shares traded and at an average of 8.1c
Today's close - 6.7c -
a 17% discount to its 4 year VWAP!
It's a dud.
No wonder more and more natives are getting restless. Let's now add Ironking & hurl to that ever growing list (see my post
17637366 ).
I wonder how many were led into this "opportunity" by the chat forum hype of former days?....I mean, speccing in sub-10c stocks has been a very rewarding past time this last 4 years - biotechs, gold, graphite, resource-to-Tech backdoor listings, now lithium.......plenty of elephants for the traders to track down and slay among that lot.
...unless you have been stuck in AVB.
As for the long term investors - I can understand they ignore the day-to-day pricings...but how can you ignore it for 1500 days, when management is selling the story they have grown the the market cap from a $65m business to a $170m but shareholders have not a zack to show for it.
Anyway - as phil rightly points out, this is all just history - not the future - but when you read posts where bears get labelled trolls swimming in a cesspit its always good to reflect backwards for some context.
After all, these Bears have been right for the best part of four years now.....
Lets hope there are better days ahead.
Sentiment: Don't fold....but you'd be mad to keep the blinkers on all the same.
