  1. RJ's confidence the past few days

    I’m struggling to understand that statement. If R1 was almost contribution margin positive exiting Q4, why did gross loss widen compared to Q3, given that EDV only contributed 8% of Q4 revenue?

    My faith as an investor has been shaken by the evasiveness of RJ’s responses. You are spot on about the oblique comments to the most important questions on the earnings call. It casts doubt on whether RJ is trustworthy and anything the management states can be relied on. While this may sound...
