I had already written last week that I had read a very detailed analysis for $BTO (-1.97%) but it was a PDF and 53 pages in English. So I have now asked Gemini to translate and summarize the presentation for GQ.
Unfortunately, of course, the many graphics are missing.
Nevertheless, the share is mega exciting and could become the next tenbagger in the commodities sector of my portfolio.
