I have owned Poet for at least 10 years. It is in my TFSA, my wife's TFSA, my RRIF and my wife's RRSP. I have bought more shares from time to time, most recently yesterday. I thought that POET would have provided a nice boost to my retirement holdings, but I am still waiting 3 years later. I am currently down around 50% in total, however I am still confident there are great days/years ahead. I hope I wont be too old to enjoy it :) It seems to me no matter how great the news, the market only gets excited for a few days before the share price pulls back yet again. Only serious numbers on earings will ever deliver "up and to the right" permanently.
