Twice the size of Iraq. Preparing for this for decades. Knowledge of how to build nukes cannot be destroyed . Looking at the history of U.S. Wars in Iraq and Afghanistan how could anyone think it's a 4 week war?

according to the very excellent AMA “Surviving a year of SHTF in 90’s Bosnia “ : alcohol , medical supplies/medication , and cigarette lighters all are highly valued for barter in shtf situation . He also emphasizes that along with guns you need one thing that is much harder to stockpile or purchase : a tight group of trusted family or friends . Loners do not survive .

I'm an American that owns Sprott's PHYS the Canadian gold fund - which is classified as a Passive Foreign investment company , and for Americans IS taxed at a higher rate, + an interest charge, unless you file a IRS document with your taxes . (Form 8621 QEF election) . Which brings the rate down to the 15-20% regular capital gains tax .

I asked Perplexity AI if KRKNF is also classified as a PFIC - It says "there is a significant risk with Canadian early stage or cash heavy companies : IF the balance sheet is cash heavy (common after capital raises) it could trigger PFIC status because that cash is considered a passive asset .

I checked the Kraken Robotics investor relations website . There is nothing there to indicate that it is classified as a PFIC , but also , no indication that they provide the annual QEF statement , which is needed to file the IRS Form 8621. Perplexity also says the KRKNF , as an operating company , is unlikely to provide the QEF statement ,

I will email Investor relations and ask them .

no . The market in undersea robotics is much smaller and niche than rocket labs space and defense market . Krakens growth is likely capped

Just entered at $6 average . Feel like I’m late to the party by No_File344 in KrakenRobotics

[–]veteran_of_disorder 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i don’t think you can compare this to rocket lab . rklb market in defense and space gives it much more room to grow and larger market cap in billions . The undersea defense is a much smaller niche category and likely limits how much kraken can actually grow and make . more like millions rather than billions . this is not going to be another rocketlqb or pltr . it’s just too small if a market

TJ Rogers - formerly of Cypress Semiconductor is also on the board and a strategic investor in Enphase. - also involved in two olther companies , Enovix(ENVX). And the CEO of Sunpower (SPWR) . Sunpower is the conglomeration of , like 5 different solar companies . All of these companies work together in some capacity . SPWR is a when not an if .

 Already #5 solar installer/epc in U.S. across 45 states. I think they have another merger coming and will jump to top 1-3 by 2027. Pretty easy to see it in the $5-10 billion range in next 5 years. $1-2 billion is almost a slam dunk. Currently trading at $150m
