are you catching a falling knife?
The only thing they have had going for them in the past year is their promises of coming out with a drone. But after HTC's flop, we know that it's the Chinese alone that rule that market.

buy HTC for pureplay VR memery y/n?

HTC for VR? Meh. Might as well buy Facebook; it's a more diverse & stable company.
If you're looking for someone to bet on the VR space that's a cheap buy, look at NVDA. They're the ones that will likely provide the high-end GPUs for VR headsets.
Not much going for them. Consumer spending is going down and gopro sales will probably start falling as well (I think it already has).
Unless they enter the VR space, I don't think the stock will rise for a while. With new tech, i'd go for companies looking at self-driving cars moreso than electric vehicles. Self-driving cars are easier to sell and less infrastructure involved than electric vehicles. Put my money on ford cause they're going for automated taxis it seems

well the idea is that it's a pureplay. i not looking for a diversified VR play. already hold FB anyway, completely independent of VR.
similar with NVDA i'd rather buy into them for their auto sensor and ADAS stuff as opposed to Vr.

Then you should be buying HTC for their smartphone offerings, not their VR.
There is no VR pureplay on the market right now. Everyone in the market is hedged and/or hindered by other markets in the tech sector. HTC might be the closest thing, but if their smartphone sales tank, they'll never make it anywhere with VR because they'll be dead in the water. Besides, adoption for VR will take some time since you need high-end equipment to even be able to use it at this point. The graphics card alone for a VR-enabled machine costs more than the average desktop tower these days.

htc smartphones suck with no upside and the valuation is dirt cheap right now. i need to look at exact numbers again but i'm pretty sure you're just getting free call options at this point by buying HTC, no? assuming you can get the stock without super high commish since its traded in taiwan

Maybe, I always thought that company was shit.
My only regret was not shorting them more aggressively when they were close to $100.
That stock was HTB for months.
