One of the things that I have come to admire most about this stock thread is that we demand to be AHEAD of the curve and FIRST to the party. I have a stock that I believe will be a 10 bagger this year. I welcome discussion on FECC. I don't have time to post full DD now, but please look it up if you can. For now, here is a bit about what they do from a news release today. I own a position at 15.25. I know that in general otcbb companies aren't discussed here, but this company has already applied for listing on the Nasdaq national market.
