Uncharted waters or not, this stock and the other superconductor stocks could come crashing down if they fail to deliver in a relatively short period of time. I've been in this stock for 16 years and I've seen it soar and crash several times. Don't get me wrong, I own a ton of it and I'm very happy to see it make the run but my enthusiasm is tempered by past experience. Superconductivity holds immense promise but getting it from the laboratory to real world applications that can be sold in commercial quantity has been problematical. Glenn Epstein himself has stated that we are still 3 to 5 years away from commercial viability of HTS. Let's hope these new investors have some patience.
