Interesting. What is Monsters potential ceiling though?? Would obviously factor into the risk vs reward and how much I would be willing to take on.
That's a good point, I'm not sure.
The numbers for $MNST look good. There's only one thing that holds me back from buying this stock? I think their drinks taste horrible. I love other energy drinks, Red Bull in particular. But something about Monster's drinks just taste off.
Monster also doesn't have the scandals the Red Bull faces:

I also like the taste of Redbull better, but since I can invest in Monster, and not Redbull, I'm in for $MNST.
