Introduction
In nearly 20 years of small and micro-cap investing, we may have just encountered one of the largest disconnects between market capitalization and asset value we've ever seen. You might assume we're referring to a company in a mature, declining market, but it's quite the opposite.
One of the biggest challenges for Comstock Mining (LODE) is its identity as a micro-cap conglomerate tech incubator operating under the guise of a gold mining company. This complex and unconventional business model is difficult to grasp, which makes it hard to attract investors and likely contributes to the disconnect between asset value and market cap.
