In addition to the disclaimer in the preamble to my blog, I hereby confirm that I do not have any relevant interest in, or any interest in the acquisition or disposal of, Spritzr.
I remember someone here asking you about Spritzer at an unrelated post some months ago. I've been following its price casually since then. Volume was extremely low and anyone who had invested would also need to be very patient. It's no fun seeing your counter in a semi-coma when others go up and up.
ReplyDeleteBut now Spritzer has finally started to move. Anyone who had bought it then would have made satisfactory profits. This type of counter is very suitable for those who want to invest but don't want to put up with the stress of volatility.
