quick glance at the highlights leaves me fairly uninspired


First they had successfully takeoff / landings at end of April which is encouraging.

It’s slightly buried but their strategy to target cargo transport is really interesting/makes sense given not putting civilian lives at risk.


Overall it is more proof of concept and potential though and does not appear to have firm locked in revenue

Correct. But the burn rate is too high for merely proof of concept.
Quite frankly I need to realize some losses for next year's tax bill.
This will be a small one, and MRLN will stay on my watchlist.

But they will need money. A lot of it, and fast.

If it's not clear to all, I've changed my mind due to the elongated timeline here. And I think it'll be had for cheaper in the future.

I have watched this one, but have never been high on it. I owned a little bit at one point, but dumped it. I'm not convinced it is on the cusp of becoming a moneymaker. Maybe later on.

I think this is the cue for the rest of you to go all in...

I bought 737 shares at around $12



Guess I will just hold and see what happens.

I'm in the same boat.

Originally bought around 400 shares in the $8 range, made a decent profit, and bought back in try to keep timing the volatility but it hasn't gone back up.

Now I'm sitting on 777 shares at $10.94 just waiting

Bag holders unite!

Just wish this thing could pump back up to $12 so I can GTFO and pour it into OUST.

This has always been me in the past, but I decided to just cut my losses on this one. I sold everything in the 7s earlier today from a cost basis of $10.

I usually am one to hold forever until it goes back up, but too often I am missing some huge gains on what I could've done with the money in the meantime. I cashed out and put it all in OUST and DRAM. The odds of those doubling seem much higher and faster than MRLN does right now.

This is more of an emotional response.

Taking a loss isn't a bad thing. You can report the loss on your taxes, and it frees up money for a stock you like better.

If you wait for MRLN to go ip 25% but OUST goes up 30%, you'll end up with fewer shares in the end.

Yep, I made some money on it but I held a bag on AUPH for years and learned this lesson the hard way.

It might be time to start watching this one. It looks like one that has potential to triple from it's low (whatever that is), in a couple days. After it dipped below 6 it picked up afterhours today. It's been flat in low 6's two days in a row

Down to its 52 week low. Should this stock be a buy?
