I don't know if such growth is sustainable in the long term, so I won't invest in it, but it's an interesting stock.
Even if I wanted to buy, the price is too high now. It would take a drop.
Quite interesting and you can see that the company has potential and is likely to grow. At the very least, I'm adding it to the watchlist.
