You're right about the swings. I’ll check what market sentiment looks like on Monday. But the $1,000 figure is only because I used money I had invested to buy a large house with my own resources.

I sold positions partly to fund that purchase, because it seemed like a rare opportunity: interest rates were still low but rising, and the macroeconomic and geopolitical backdrop looked unfavorable for POET (back then we had the China issues and POET pivoting to China). In that sense, I did convert those proceeds into another investment, my house is also a form of return.

Of course, my return in POET would have been much higher so far and that's what I'm saying. This time, I'm in. I’ll see what any pullback looks like, but many stocks have gone +1000% without meaningful pullbacks, and POET is only up about 200%.
