POET, so far today, is up about 14%.  It is still less than a dollar, USD, and my guess would be that it won't jump up like a rocket soon.  Why?  Because very few people outside of techies in the field have ever heard of POET or its Optical Interposer or its 50/50 JV in China with Super Photonics.

POET isn't exactly a household word and it has no where near the name recognition amongst average retail investors that LAC has..... yet.

Those of us die hard POET investors truly believe that situation will change for the better in the next year or two, but the obvious Caveat is that "Belief" doesn't always translate into ROI.  As long as POET is an "unknown" amongs retail investors the share price will still be in the bottom of this barrel..... just like it was for Western Lithium back 10 years or so ago.

A mighty oak may grow from a single acorn, but it takes years and years for that growth to occur.
