I am happy that you joined this board and refr, an additional smart, optimistic voice was really needed, board was mainly a couple bashers posting and upset investors.....Just adding one, smart, optimistic voice was needed for balance...Your posts are insightful and you share knowledge (like about the glass show and now about your group), it is appreciated.

Dumbtint sold his refr at 2 and loaded on Gauzy 9 to 11 dollar per share. Its in the 4s now. He calls anyone saying anything positive about refr a pumper. He has a very small position in refr if any so he dont want it up. You saw how quite the board was when refr ran to 2.70? They dont want refr to take off without them.

Just to shed a little light as posts go way back...You are correct in me investing later but I first bought shares way back, 20 plus years ago, was a young man...I made the much bigger play in 2020-2022 after Gauzy came on board in 2019 followed by smartglass growing in cars just after...I had hopes for BMW IX, Rivian, Hyundai sooner, Merc CLA, Cybertruck as Joe said in Ccall that cybertruck roof looks similar to smartglass (he should not have said that because he would know if it was spd) while it was being road tested....Ferrari and GM were a factor in me boosting position by taking SPD....and you were correct on Cadillac, it came out of nowhere, just announced one day

I am not worried about the misses, yeah it sucked but it is smartglass growing in autos which is KEY and spd as best tech will have a larger place sooner than later, there are wood baseball bats for $40, composites for $500...I always said market will be split at the start, does not need to be all pdlc, ec or spd..over time if spd cheap enough it will take over near all as it is the best tech for smartglass roofs by far, unquestionable........I am also optimistic about the retro fit now especially with a large, established company making the windows and selling them...

EC looks like a total flop with the Vette...I even posted it sucks and only used in China, most likely because Chinese company Ambilight is very involved in the roofs, no matter how bad it is, china govt forced, and vette showing it is bad with real reviews on it....Ferrari used EC way back in the Superamerica and dropped it while having bad reviews...So I am seeing EC as even less of a threat now, and pdlc is junk too but seems better received because even bad smartglass is "good" to consumer which is an overall positve.

Years ago I used to read board (not as closely) but never posted, I am sure so many are so happy that I started posting though haha...I believe there are people like I used to be, read board and may have stock but don't post nor even have an ID as I did not..
