Bottom Line: JBII could be one of those penny stocks that regains its strength and returns its PPS back to the multiple dollar levels it once held. However, OTCMarkets.com has JBII listed with the infamous “caveat emptor” symbol, or buyer beware, regardless of JBII having all of their corporate filings up to date with the SEC.
