I'd say it is equally poised between high risk and high reward. It's a real race against the clock - can they deliver on their potential before they're forced to call on kentgrove? Some are betting yes (high risk appetite), some are sitting on the sidelines (low risk appetite but definitely interested), and others are here to spoil the party.

As I've said in the past, I love investing in this company. I've learned a lot of costly lessons and it has never been dull. I have my blue chip income stocks which bore me senseless but are a necessary part of my portfolio, but I wouldn't miss the MSB ride for a second. Having said that, I'm not betting my house on it either. IMO, nothing wrong with a bit of old fashioned speculation if you can accept losing your capital. I admire the steely approach of madamswer et al and their capital protection philosophy - but it hardly gets the heart racing. Depends what you're looking to get out of it I guess.
