Looks like it did not disappoint but who the heck knows what disappoint means nowadays.

Great increase in revenue, 206% and increased losses of 33%. Today that sounds to me like a sure fire winner.

I don't dare to go long or short on these stocks. I will wait as Barb Payne suggests for the bubble to burst and try and catch it on the way down rather than try and predict a top for these stocks. They are so high that I doubt that they will totally crash all at once.

Good investing to all.
