Pinned straw:
Thanks @Strawman, brilliant as always.
I agree this is an excellent business that is a field leader in a growth area of defence manufacturing. Macro matters, but ultimately one must have a view on valuation. And Droneshield is currently priced for perfection, and then some.
At what price would one get in? 200x earnings is asking for the strongest of convictions. Even at today's price, the P/E for $100m pa of earnings in a few years is 50x. Arguably justifiable for a superfast growing company, assuming that growth is real.
For those who haven't been paying attention, the last three trading days have been accompanied by nothing burger announcements on the ASX.
That's not a good sign in the short term. Filler announcements remind me of imminent failures like Zip. Droneshield needs runs on the board. Big ones. And quickly to justify the share price.
Very happy with my decision to exit a week or so ago.
Still on the watch list.
