“You were bearish in Happag” – True
“You didn’t like it all your past comments in the company where unoptimistic” – no really, you can easily tell the narrative changed this year.

“already rallied x3, and i am happy i hold my position.” – and so am I.
Very well done and good luck!
Best wished to you.
