It certainly feels  like new investors are anticipating positive news and existing shareholders appear to  be holding  tight for  good reasons. The message is  pretty loud and clear. Recall when POET did  road shows in the past while the platform  was under development. Basically  there was no  response.  This  feels very different. I think we will be looking forward to  an NRE announcement ahead of  the financials. That is  just an opinion based on the success that POET has had on development,  hitting the milestones and the  overwhelming need that the POET platform can meet for  the big  companies they are dealing with.

It is nice to have an investment that we can all  feel  good  about.

Right now I am dealing with  my parents financial  adviser to make moves to sell some investments at a loss to  offset gains from last year. It is  not  something I would have even considered but it seems like  the right thing to  do...it just  feels like a strange  time  to  do  it but it  makes sense.

 I  would love to buy  more POET with that money but for  the  most part I keep  my  hands off those investments. It is something worth  considering.

Good luck to everyone.
