Seconds if Feenix drops out. I don't need oceanfront. Mountain View would be fine. I try to get to Montana every year it's my 2nd favorite state. Won't b this year tho they're boycotting me! Offered them $1200 for a chance st an elk or deer. Somebody must've outbid me😁
LOL! I, too, prefer the mountain views over the oceanfront.
 
A company will post record gains if it sells all of it's possible product, has no inventory and has costs pushed back. Wait till it catches up and there is record inventory because of over ramped production, lowered sales because of market saturation and paying for over orders.

Things gonna change here in Alaska as well, for better or worse ? remains to be seen ...

The group RHAK or Resident Hunters of Alaska ... are gaining momentum and pretty much seeking to curtail the "free-for-all, Alaska is the worlds hunting playground" that the guides & non-resident hunters view it as ....

The major topic of discussion is Dall Sheep, where non-residents take the majority of sheep and Alaskans are seeing statewide restrictions imposed on resident hunters, moose is also a big subject, Alaskans hunt for meat & non-residents fly home with the antlers leaving the rest behind for guides to dispose of as they please .... the argument is valid in this case and I agree to end that practice .... same reason I will never pay to hunt anywhere in Africa, I despise the fact that I can't bring an ounce of meat back and will not pay one cent to hunt there

I agree with some of their views and disagree with other stuff, which is why I am not a member

But like it or not, big changes are coming and non-resident hunters will most likely see less hunting opportunities .... and so will residents

One fact that RHAK can't seem to get is that once they prove their cases and reasons for limiting non-resident hunters ... those same arguments will affect resident hunters the same way ..... major changes with major restrictions

And why do you suppose the stock rose so much 2021?
Inflation?
That is a question that is not easily answered. Stocks move up and down for many reasons. Why is Bitcoin so high? I have no idea other than supply and demand for something that really has no value other than what someone is willing to pay for it. Not much different than the .com bubble in the 90's. I would also think but I don't know for sure that Vista has alot of assets including real estate which in the current market is worth far more than two years ago.

Most companies work on a margin that is a percentage of cost. If a box of primers was $30 and they mark up 30% then they would sell them for $39. If their cost is now $100 they would sell them for $130. Yes they make $21 more a box but their expenses and overhead have also gone up over the same time period. Fuel, wages, insurance, etc.

I am sure there are people gouging out there somewhere but that does not mean every company is gouging. Bottom line is if it's worth it to you then buy it if it's not don't buy it. Throwing out accusations that you have no facts to back up is not going to change anything.
 
When you give stupid people money - stimulus checks - a tax check every month because you have more kids than you can afford - and a thousand dollars a week unemployment checks - 7K income tax returns this is what u get. A recession will come and when it does things will come back down in price. STUPID PEOPLE SHOULDN'T HAVE MONEY...

You are correct; it is NOT as straightforward as some people think. As you noted in your bottom line statement, many of us say the same thing. It has boiled down to creative ways of conveying the same message.
