Strong week for T-Robotics.Co.Ltd (KOSDAQ:117730) shareholders doesn't alleviate pain of one-year loss

T-Robotics.Co.,Ltd. (KOSDAQ:117730) shareholders should be happy to see the share price up 22% in the last month. But that doesn't change the fact that the returns over the last year have been disappointing. Like a receding glacier in a warming world, the share price has melted 60% in that period.
