If mothers can't trust that they can get continuity of supply of their chosen brand, then trust is broken and they will choose another brand that their baby is doing well with, that they can trust has continuity of supply. Once trust in continuity of supply is broken, and a consumer has chosen another brand they can trust and their baby is doing well on, I suggest that the vast majority of mothers will stick with the brand they can trust that they can get at a reasonable price.
I think the whole extra freight cost issue and daigou problems will have far reaching consequences down the track and ATM may find rebuilding their sales growth much harder than they think.
You are underestimate the Chinese ways of doing business and how they lives.

You have a problem with that?
PS. Have a look at FBU in recent years - plenty of negative points around but nobody complained, and the reward of investing in a turnaround stock is there for all to see.
Once it is an uptrend confirmed , you won't have a single chance to buy this stock at this price, it will jump 3-4 dollars overnight. Stock trading is a risk , luck and reward to those who do well.

Beagle,whats your view on Comvita as they operate in a similar space and they note a turn around?
"...Unique business model shows encouraging signs
Comvita has a unique ‘End to End’ business model with around 350 people employed in markets outside of New Zealand to ensure that Comvita is better connected to customers and consumers in market, and is able to adapt at speed to meet local market changes and needs. A particular strength of this model has been evidenced in Mainland China and Asia where Comvita has been able to offset the impact of the challenges in the Daigou market in Australia and New Zealand. This model also enables the business to continue to perform strongly even with travel and tourism being so restricted...."

Have a look at turnaround stocks over the years like FBU, DIL, SKO, HGH, PEB, XRO and yes, ATM a few years ago.
Plenty of opportunities as a turnaround happens to get into a stock - plenty.

You have absolutely no clue what you're talking about and do not understand risk management. Instead of refusing to look past your nose due to emotional attachment to ATM created from loss, how about you start actively considering the advice of other people on this forum? There are posters here who are some of the most talented retail investors/traders around with decades of experience.
Imagine if you'd pulled your money from ATM when the writing was on the wall and put it into something with tailwinds e.g. HLG, OCA, HGH, BGP (to name a few).

I don't follow them anymore as their results over the years have been profoundly shocking. They always "talk" a big game...but talk is cheap.

And an expensive one at that!
Can understand some parents stocking up in the beginning of the pandemic but by October 2020, it was so clear that stock was very freely available and ATM was selling stock produced in Jan 2020!
