Why does David like it?
2 reasons:
Potential Catalysts
Started to move into a new sector - cybersecurity for defense industry. VIDE has a unit that can test computer systems with homeland security - this could potentially be a lucrative business in the future. just finally turned a profit. the future could be better than in the past.
History
VIDE has gone on and off doing well to poor again. The stock goes up a lot when things are good. nobody is paying attention to the company, left for dead. nobody talking about the company on stock boards. Those are the kinds of businesses David likes the most: No sign of life and nobody cares about the company.
Stock Buybacks
VIDE was buying back stock last year in mid-2019.
Other Catalysts
Potential for some kind of change due to a very old board of directors.
