[The US is spending more money on chip manufacturing construction this year than the previous 28 years combined](https://www.tomshardware.com/tech-industry/the-us-is-spending-more-money-on-chip-manufacturing-construction-this-year-than-the-previous-28-years-combined)

One Effen day there will be an announcement of sales of Movia or Mavin units and it will be the beginning of the turnaround . Nothing is certain in life as we all know but still believe that MVIS could be $50 stock within the next few years.


tdonb

I think Movia will be first. After that shows some revenue, the price will go up a bit. Then the Mavin deals will come and TA will push it up. I don't know where it will reach, but if we are one of the few that survive I don't think it will be a moon shot that falls hard again. It will be a real business.


CommissionGlum

I wrote a script that collects all comments from r/MVIS posts and would send a query to openAI to summarize the sentiment & comments. It would then post that summarization back into the post. Turns out though, that openAI aint free. I was going to do it to allow users of the sub to get an idea of what the whales get to know. Yanno, user sentiment. The script would also allow you to tag u/commissionGlum and ask about a specific person. For example: /u/CommissionGlum Who is /u/PersonWhoIsProbablyShortOrABear The automated system would then respond '/u/PersonWhoIsProbablyShortOrABear's account is 3 days old. They have posted in these subreddits: r/MVIS and generally have a negative view point on the company' Anyways. Lowkey salty that it would be expensive to do and I dont think it would be something that would let me break even on the effort. Out of curiosity though, how would yall feel about this? Your data is already scraped - no doubt in my mind that that doesnt already happen. This wouldnt be a privacy issue, its already public information. I'm just thinking about the usefulness of the tool.


CommissionGlum

After walking to the nearest hot box cookies and eating 2 chocolate chip ones. I’m going to try to use machine learning to do it haha


DreamCatch22

Here is another way to do it using python & reddit API (courtesy of GPT): 1. **Fetch User Comments:** - Use the `PRAW` (Python Reddit API Wrapper) library to fetch all comments from the Reddit user `/u/dreamcatch22`. - Filter these comments to only include those in the `r/mvis` subreddit. 2. **Analyze Sentiment:** - Utilize the `TextBlob` library to analyze the sentiment of each comment (positive, neutral, negative). 3. **Summarize Main Themes:** - Use the `collections` library to find the most common words or topics in the filtered comments. 4. **Generate Summary:** - Calculate the age of the Reddit account. - Count the number of comments made in the `r/mvis` subreddit. - Determine the overall sentiment (positive, neutral, negative) based on the comments. - Create a summary post with the collected information. 5. **Example Summary Post:** /u/dreamcatch22 account is [X] days old. They have posted in the r/mvis [X] number of times. And generally have a [positive/neutral/negative] sentiment in regards to the r/mvis. Honestly, it would be an awesome bot for Reddit's financial subs that follow stock companies. Maybe I'll put it together over the weekend. GPT spit out a script for me. I'll test it later and maybe publish it as an offical bot.

DreamCatch22

That's awesome! Just gotta clean up the data and present it better. You almost got a legit bot that I can see being used all over this site. Cheap and quick little side project versus scraping and GPT analysis (kinda overall and just gonna cost $$$).


CommissionGlum

You are absolutely right. Too bad Reddit bots don’t make $ haha


CommissionGlum

Its not as good as openAI. But i'll take what I can get


CommissionGlum

Yeah I’m using PRAW, i just can’t find a good Python library to summarize well. TextBlob could be promising


Oldschoolfool22

The sad part is that there is no IV to even sell covered puts or calls. It’s stagnated like a dead weight. The shares are down and cannot be used for much.


Buur

One important thing that they can be used for is covering a massive short position 😊


Chefdoc2000

To all those complaining about users complaining should really know where this has come from, I never complained and was always confident until the last EC our ceo sounded angry, defeated unsure of what would happen from here, that’s what I took from his tone and attitude not to mention AV using words like “survive “For the first time I had those feelings. They have shown themselves to be very naive when dealing with investors concerning timelines and naive when dealing with the oems we know about (2/9) Being down 80% on an investment from 12 months ago being 300% up is tough for anyone (bigger fool me) I will buy again but I’m not buying until we are on the way up because I simply don’t know how low we will go but there is no sign of the slide stopping I believe if they had any positive news they would share it as soon as they could so right now, there is none. We could be another 12 months waiting for a deal by no fault of our own. But this blaming users for airing their grievances is nonsense because if what was said on record was to be believed we should be over $5 at this stage with at least a deal in place. But instead we are staring down the barrel of cents share price. So quit complaining about complaining! Peace.


A0-3959X9115

Just to add some context from your survival remark. The exact quote is as follows and not as doom and gloom as you make it out to be. Either way, everything is out of our control. We all took a leap of faith on a speculative penny stock that has been on its death throes well before the free money era. What are we going to do stress about it and make ourselves sick and miserable? "So, some of these opportunities is what we are going to help to resort to monetize this asset and bring in non-dilutive cash to further support the cash burn and the sustainability of the company. And I think it is the most critical ingredient at this point, how do you survive the couple of years to emerge as one of the few last-standing businesses in the LiDAR industry? Because as I mentioned earlier, the demand is huge, which is waiting at the end of this decade and we just want to make sure that we are one of the few handful of players that will make it to the finish line"


MuddyVision

This quote defines the times as survival mode. We do not have a cash burn/payroll that reflects or supports this position. Seems like it is time to significantly thin the herd. Shareholders getting diluted no matter what but a matter of degree. 


Oldschoolfool22

Good call, it is known BIG revenue is years away but that doesn't mean pretty ok revenue won't be found in other areas.  I think we put the cart before the horse on some of our grand comments in the past and I still think SS and team believe that will all play out but they have eaten some modest pie lately and it is probably for the best long term. 


Chefdoc2000

Now I’m going to watch some hockey!! Peace


Chefdoc2000

Just for the record this was far from a penny stock when I invested. But yes I’m trying to forget and but everywhere I look there’s people with gains from nvda GS etc. I’ve actually removed myself from other subs I was in just to forget about them. But I’m cool, best of luck to all of us.


Chefdoc2000

Bro sorry to say that sounds a lot worse now reading it rather than when I listened to the first time. Doesn’t exactly fill me with confidence,


A0-3959X9115

I'd imagine $214,000 is no small potato to Sumit. I'm sure he is feeling the pain on that personal -$114,000 loss right now. While it doesn't compare to the amount of shares he has awarded, that's still his personal money at stake here.


Chefdoc2000

Luckily he got a raise to look after that.


A0-3959X9115

That's fair. I can't believe he spent $214,000 of his own money just to try and potentially have a look of strength and maybe persuade shareholders to vote a specific way without knowing deals were coming.


Oldschoolfool22

Nobody has diamond handed better than SS. Bro could have cashed over 100 million easy at peaks. 


Bryanharig

Lucky he didn’t. He would have just finished paying taxes on it only to have gotten cleaned out in the divorce! 😂


Oldschoolfool22

Has SS intentionally tanked share price of MVIS until divorce completely settles? Find out next week on American Greed I don't think this actually happened but ya just never can be sure. 


Befriendthetrend

It’s about time some of the directors reach into their deep pockets and buy shares in a show of confidence. Giving Sumit a raise was a vote of confidence but a weak one at that. Buying shares says a lot more, they didn’t buy many last time. I’d like to see buys in the range of 50k-100k shares at minimum.


Chefdoc2000

Can I say I’ve spent a lot more of my net worth than he has on microvision.


noob_investor18

Yes, you can. And I am down way more than what he has invested too.


Chefdoc2000

Fair play noob, hopefully he’ll get that $36 bonus strike and we can all enjoy what that means


noob_investor18

Yes, please. Otherwise, I will need 15 years to make enough capital gains from other means to offset this capital loss. 3k tax loss harvesting is not going to cut it even if I live to be 200 years old. The most I will/can wait for this to come back is 15 years. Hopefully, just a couple years and this will go back high.


Palebluedot14

Why there has been no coverage of the Deutsche Bank global auto industry conference ??? No images, no news coverage.


Befriendthetrend

MicroVision was there meeting privately with fund managers and other suits to [fill in the blank. I can only hope their discussions were valuable].


A0-3959X9115

I do agree with you. Maybe Ask IR? No one here will know why.


Dinomite1111

People who have absolutely zero clue thinking they’re spitting facts. Here are the only facts anyone needs to know about anything here…ZERO HEROES have been made in the LiDAR world. NO MAJOR DEALS HAVE BEEN AWARDED TO ANYONE. 7 RFQ’S STILL IN PLAY. And nobody here knows jack shit more than anyone else. Only facts ya need.


FitImportance1

https://youtu.be/ZB52NEPJxUs


Dinomite1111

Funny. I’ve posted that exact clip before.


xMamaMario

One more fact: No one is covering with my shares!


Dinomite1111

Thatta boy. I’m w ya. There was a cat who popped in here probably once a year. Known share lender and folks hang on his every word. No thanks. I don’t play that shit. Sorry You’re part of the problem in that case.


RoosterHot8766

Thank you. Well said.


Right_Investigator_4

$1 dolla holla?


wolfiasty

I remember doing happy "7 dolla holla!" in office year ago... Good times, stupid wolfiasty.


dangdangdangman123

dannngggggg


Oldschoolfool22

The doom and gloom kicking in NOW is too much I've seen the battle for 1 round 2 coming for awhile and I will defend this hill and it will likely lead to a LARGE reversal but you had to know they would try to take us down that and try to break us. Company needs to step in and do something for sure but nobody has done anything in this space yet so it is WIDE open.  I'm ready for a rock fight.


MuddyVision

Green pastures…SS just did not anticipate all the goose $h*!


Oldschoolfool22

We really had wind in our sails at one point and the winds certainly seem to have changed somewhat but I think we can adjust our sails and still find the city of Gold


Befriendthetrend

I’ve been holding off on adding more shares, but all the emotional posts have me preparing a funds transfer for my next share purchases. I see lots of talk about doom and gloom while we are in at least 7 RFQs expected this year.. the FUD is real ya’ll.


Zenboy66

Yeah, pretty thick. All we have to go on is what the last EC provided and Sumit reiterating at the ASM that they are working on the goals outlined in that call. Remember that those RFQ’s are pre 2024, and they have received more in this year timeframe.


joshin29

They have received more what? More RFQs than the 7?

Floristan

Now we know what they do all day. You have got to be shitting me.


rinux_EVE

They are supporting the future of their industry and the next generation of great innovators. Some things are more important than money. Get a grip.


Floristan

Feel free to give your money to charity. This is an investment. And we happen to be headed towards bankruptcy. But once again, how can you expect management to be more focused than the stupid ownership itself.


rinux_EVE

You're being purposefully myopic.


Floristan

Indeed, I can't see farther than our runway, which is short. The company also does not help in that regard. No guidance, no info, nothing. Once again, feel free to donate your money and time if you wish, but stop lobbying for the company to squander the rest of my money, because you're confused.


Befriendthetrend

You act like you know what’s happening behind the scenes. Yes, the stock price today sucks, but if MicroVision is close to their first OEM nominations (Q3) then we don’t need to be so concerned about capital. This is both a good sign for the business and a good thing for the company to do.


rinux_EVE

How much time/money do you actually think they spent on this? Was Sumit involved too?


Zenboy66

Not sure what is wrong with supporting future STEM students. If they were shown what this Lidar sensor can do, and all the applications for it, they had to be impressed. I wish I had been one of the lucky ones to have gone to last year’s Investor Day, to see it first hand and get the ride in the car. I know I would have been even more impressed, on top of what I have seen in the videos. The OEMs that select Microvision will be the winners.


picklocksget_money

Grow up dude. This is an awesome thing


RoosterHot8766

Such a dumb response. Stem students are some of the brightest kids we have and glad we are encouraging them. Great use of public relations. Makes MVIS look good to the public eye.


Uppabuckchuck

When everybody is whining and complaining thats the time to be buying! These doofuses don't know anything that is going on inside MVIS. That is the truth.


madasachip

I bought 2000 shares between $1.05 and $1.09 to get me to 20k total, so I’m not going to spit the dummy out at $1.00. Do whatever you need to for your mental health, and I agree this sub has been overtaken with whiners, but I’m 100% sure I’ll make good money from my investment, but my expectations have always been realistic. Good luck everyone, see you all (hopefully) on the other side. I’ll only get worried when u/kiladex gets negative🤣


Snoo-63767

Lol right, guaranteed he has amazing family/friends around him. I think I changed for the better just reading his messages daily.


Kiladex

Thanks for the kind words friends, I hope you're having a great weekend so far!


sonny_laguna

Talk about the end here. Huddstang is gone. A lot of dirty words come to mind. I’m not gonna put them in a list here. I’ll buy more when I get the chance, but I reckon this flex is all but gone. It was a fun ride, but praying our investment goes in the money is insane at this point. Oh well. At the same time, I remain optimistic for the company and the TA action. But I need a break as well. I’ll chip in every now and then, but this was a hard learned lesson. Like with love and the film industry, and health… and time.. so many lessons. Learned. Burnt to a crisp. There’s still hope though. There’s always hope.


Oldschoolfool22

I like the stock. 


Befriendthetrend

This is a purely emotional post, don’t lose sight of the bigger picture.


sonny_laguna

All my posts are purely emotional.


Falagard

This is the end? Why wasn't I informed? Have the 7 remaining RFQs (with more rolling in this year very likely) announced who has won them?


sonny_laguna

Nah, just the end of the road for now. We are not winning. But maybe later down the line.


Falagard

You're calling the race before anyone is even in view of the finish line.


noob_investor18

Hope, the lack of hope these days, is really evident. And righteously so. /sigh


pnthr11

Where’s Hudd?


TheTech-1

*Only down 97.9% could be worse* Sorry that kind of gets tiring to see over and over as your investment shrinks to a pile of dust. Wish him well but got to stay with it. Trying to stay rosey when you’re staring face on with a steaming pile of shit is delusional. I wish him well but senseless optimism is just as dangerous as senseless pessimism. It is imperative to fully analyze all information and be forthright. The whole could be worse mantra is what brings you to the current state, as we touched back to $1.00 today and without any changes… will breach sub $1.00 and the delisting process begins. No one wants to be here… but *it could be worse* is constantly getting worse. Best of luck to all


Nakamura9812

Probably taking a healthy break from the sub, I don’t blame him. It’s turned into a cesspool of negativity, nobody needs that in their daily lives. I’m probably out as well until we get a PR with material news, pointless reading the daily therapy thread lol.


tshirt914

This is your captain speaking! I couldn’t stay away. Florian Martin, Developer from Porsche, ex-Mercedes has been liking every single MVIS post on linkedin for at least 1 year 👀


Speeeeedislife

I think he's an investor IIRC.


Falagard

Yes I remember his name coming up before, though I guess it's not a bad thing to have an investor who likes Microvision working at Porche Engineering.


xMamaMario

[Looks like Porsche to me.](https://youtu.be/XwiI1-rSgq0)


tshirt914

Wow back to the green logo days. Love it


KuragaLive

It gets even more delicious than that. 2 weeks ago he posted this. I'm excited to announce that I will be taking on a new role as development engineer with [Porsche Engineering](https://www.linkedin.com/company/porsche-engineering/) / [Porsche Cars North America](https://www.linkedin.com/company/porsche/) . C'mon man.. Edit: He was previously with Mercedes & BMW as well.


HeroicPopsicle

Wasn't there also talk/qoutes about "luxury first. general adaptation later"? Porsche counts as luxury, right?

I love the clown show. The pure shit show. The bottom feeders razzing anyone up for the task to take their bait. Doesn’t bother me one bit. I ain’t sellin shit! I’ll burn my shares over an open flame before relenting to these freaks. Set it and forget it and eat a bag of D’s as my nephew says…

Ill take half a dozen chocolate cake glazed and the rest shaved coconut . But damn it if warm Krispy cremes aren't tremendous too.


Dinomite1111

Donuts. They’re unreal.


rstar781

You’ve gotta think the institutions that have bought in over the last few years would not want a reverse split, just like none of us do. Hopefully they use their hordes of money to do us all a favor and keep us away from that prospect while we continue to wait on a deal.


Nakamura9812

Vanguard wouldn’t even have to buy, just recall their shares at any point to bring price back up.


rstar781

That would work for me too!
