We can expect much higher volume and PPS in coming months

Especially under the new administration, should see solid gains

Looking good here in 2021

I'm here.

Bought in yesterday. Anyone holding shares still around?

Looks lonely here!

Almost buy time. When daily ADX turns down and price decisively closes > 5-day EMA, short-term buy signal will occur...
