I don't know whether trying to bust into the energy drink market by making your own is an easier way to make money than buying FRUCOR shares, but you've hit on a very important point, and one that interests me. The apparent speed with which Frucor is expanding its markets can easily be duplicated - the next product might even taste better. Time will tell, but I wonder how long it will be on the market.

Is anybody here thinking like I am?

 

Easy money to be made here.  Not in FRU, but in making your own energy drink.  I am going to investigate the possibility further.

 

Small bottle or can of carbonated water, not much flavouring, good dollop of caffeine and sell it for $4 or so.

 

Much faster way of making it, than buying FCL's and waiting for a 20% gain.
