You asked my view(opinion) of the future of FNTN, so I will give it for what it is worth. I have a lot of hopes for this company based on nothing more that observation, reading and gut feeling based on my own life experiences. I attempt to temper that with keeping an eye on the real world facts. A few of the pluses as I best I can determine. 1. Good management team with vision. 2. Good R&D from what little I can see so far. 3. Good marketing strategy again from what little I can see so far. 4. Good financing strategy so far. 5. Good product ideas. 6. Good future development and growth plans. I view stock investing much the same way as I did lending to commercial customers back in my banking days. Buying stock as an investment in loaning someone my money to produce a good or service for a reasonable return for both of us. A good lender loans more on the basis of the above list than on collateral. There are many factors that can quickly change the direction of this company that we need to always be watching for. There will always be glitches and setbacks, ups and downs. Some will be management mistakes and some will be totally out of their control. Technology is always changing. I do like what I see within their plans to be able to address these quickly by being open to buying other solutions. With the runup last week, I did take enough off the table to bring my average share cost to $0. I,m sure that as things progress, I will get back in deeper(But never deep enough to get hurt beyond recovery). Inother words, I'll never bet the farm. As long as things look as promising as they do now, I don't ever want to be without some stock in this company. Just my personal investing style. I,m a long term investor but watching short term. Not tout, Not doubt. Just what I,m about.
