Many ordinary investors would have sold Supermax earlier when its share price shot up 2 times, 4 times or 10 times because they did not believe its share price could shoot up 15 times.

Many ordinary investors sold their Supermax because they are afraid that vaccines will be available soon to stop the spread of the virus. 

Extraordinary investors should be able to foresee how good will be Supermax’s next quarter result which will be announced soon. Supermax has its own brand and sale outlets in all the major cities in US and many other countries.

Only extraordinary investors can believe that Supermax will continue to go up higher and higher until Covid 19 pandemic is completely under control. Many scientists predicted that the pandemic will not be under control for at least 1 or more years. Even if the vaccine is finally approved, it will take a long time to produce enough to vaccinate 70% of the people in the world to stop the spread of the virus.

Moreover, a lot more medical workers would be employed to vaccinate so many people and they all will require gloves.
