MVIS 2024 Q3 AI Chat

MVIS Blog Person of the Month (6/2004)

While trends and progressions in technology are powerful forces, it is actual human beings making decisions that will bring the high-tech future into current reality.



This month's MVIS Blog Person of the Month is Fidelity mutual fund manager Steven S. Wymer.



Over the course of the first six months of 2004, Mr. Wymer acquired more than 1 Million shares of Microvision, Inc. for the Fidelity Growth Company Fund (FDGRX) which he has managed since 1997. In the process, FMR Corp became the #1 shareholder of MVIS by a 3 to 2 margin over the next largest owner, Washington Mutual Advisors. FDGRX now owns about 5% of MVIS.



Mr. Wymer made a decision that he wanted to own shares of Microvision. He backed that decision up with about $10 Million dollars in cash. His foresight and entrepreneurship on behalf of his mutual fund's owners wins him the MVIS Blog Person of the Month for June 2004.
