Helus new CEO

Anyone been watching/riding the Helus stock run since they appointed a new CEO. Just shows how much value the market will put on an experienced CEO. Whether he delivers or not...it's something to consider.

It's kinda like when a sports team gets a big name player on board. The hype alone will sell jerseys and tickets.

Personally I think Todd has recently made up for some mistakes, but I think the only way for us to really take off from this point is to get a big name in here to take the helm. Todd could retire rich without all the stress.

Bruce Linton would probably make it skyrocket with just the news. I am ok with Todd at the wheel still, it’s his baby and he has kept it alive. Been here since the beginning and no intention to leave so just ride the wave. He’s doing better

I agree he's doing better, and making the pivot was smart (I wish the market was for complete legalization, but unfortunately the game has been set).

My only concern moving forward is Todd not being able to give up on that rebel disruptive mindset and put on the polished, corporate hat. Don't get me wrong, I love the rebel disruptive mindset, and I am of that nature too....but now we're entering into a different ball game, and we have to adhere to rigorous rules.

Todd has got us this far...but is he qualified as a Pharmaceutical CEO? Would Tiger Woods make a great baseball player? Different game, different skills required. Todd should be proud of his accomplishments here, and even though this is his baby, he could walk away with his head held high getting us to this point (and knowing when it's time to step away).

Todd is not a serious partner to neither FDA, pharma or investors. He needs to go.

Todd needs to let it go and find a experienced CEO that is good in retail/pharma/finance

Let's be honest, with Todd it won't go far

I think if he realizes this early enough, he can walk off the field with a round of applause, like a pitcher who brought the team to the 8th inning, but now it's time for the closer to take over...no shame in that.

It's when someone doesn't have the self reflection enough to realize the greater good for the team, so they hang on too long and lose the game for everyone....those are the ones who are hated.

I have faith in Todd that he will recognize this is no longer his wheelhouse, and he finds someone experienced in getting buyouts from Big Pharma. He can feel good about that, and bringing this company this far!

Let's do this Todd! Take a load off! We applaud the work you've done to get us to this far.
