Back at the end of December I decided to open up a position in Marvel (MVL). Immediately afterwards the stock took a small plunge (which happens a lot with investments in retrospect). With the recent Iron Man success the stock is hitting new highs and I’m a happy shareholder. It’s pointless to be happy as I’m in this one for the extremely long term. Marvel deciding to finance and create their own movies was a great decision. Of course there are more risks than with just licensing the characters out but the rewards can be greater.
I got around to seeing the movie this weekend and can see what the hype was all about. Iron Man was ready to be marked off as another cheese comic book flick but I was proven wrong. I missed out on the after credits scene though. I guess somebody was kind enough to make a video it on their phone and post it on youtube.
