Pop Mart Is Clearly A Super Fad -- Can It Become A Durable Trend?

Superficially, anything new, especially a hot new cultural phenomenon, can look like a fad, a bubble that will soon pop. And many, perhaps most, do eventually fizzle.

But some take hold and become long-term, perhaps even permanent, parts of our culture. Disney and Barbie are two big-time examples. Can Pop Mart (PMRTY) become another?

Fad or trend isn’t science. It’s a lot of art. And PMRTY, a Chinese figurine superstar, is painting the right strokes. It’s broadening its product and going global.

Its stock is little known in the U.S., and nalysts barely cover it. It reports only in Hong Kong, and in RMB. And its stock trades here via OTC pink sheets.

There’s a lot of risk here. But true moonshot stocks often require holders to have nerves of steel. I rate PMRTY ‘Buy’ for those who can handle the associated risks.
