Thank you so much for pointing out the institutions. It looks like the holdings have gone up by 1,435 shares.
Porky if you read my posts none of them have been negative. They have been realistic. You don’t like them because they aren’t feeding I into your ramptastic narrative. I don’t do shorting, I’m not buying into speculative ramping that’s all. I want to see some actual results so I can make an informed decision rather than taking more blind risks based on twiterrati’research’. What’s the negativity in that? I’m sure if the company is doing well they will update us in due course. Fingers crossed for Monday
There are Funds and Institutions...you have only looked at the number Funds own. Add them together.
I'm looking at it now. The only figure for total holdings as of yesterday is 3,182,572. Where do you see 6,189,905 ?

Could you please send me your link. Thanks
hamsters,
I loved your last comment. Maybe I'll get a crystal ball. I'm going to filter all the nuisance poster. I probably should've done it long ago. I prefer a rational argument to people being attacked. I personally have a thick skin but it really makes me uncomfortable when others are attacked, especially if they've done nothing wrong.
However, there's a poster on another board who has quite a sharp tongue and is often sarcastic to rampers. I'm not much of a fan of sarcasm but, because he is very smart and provides evidence for all his arguments, I quite like his use of it to put them down. Maybe the same poster visited here. He got a lot of people riled. I found it just as amusing.
Just to point out Morningstar currently shows major funds holding 4.51% and major institutions holding 4.26% ,a total of 8.77% (6,189,905 shares). This figure is up by around 180,000 shares since the beginning of the year despite BR selling 515,000 from their original holding of 2.5 million.
SC; Thanks again, thankfully everyone is different which makes for a healthy board, sadly some make more of posts than others, and take comments as a personal afront, sometimes rightly, sometimes not. For me, I am thick skinned, if people do not like my comments, or sometimes sarcasm, that is their choice. For me, I either ignore the posts, or if I think a poster is a real nuisance I filter them. Over time, I have had some jousts with some posters visiting from other boards, while others moaned and berated the poster, I actually found it amusing...each to their own. We all invest to make a profit either as a long term holder, day trader or shorter, and I treat these boards as a barometer of a stock, sometime right, sometimes a pine cone would be better.
SC
You are putting a heck of a lot effort into de-ramping a stock you have no interest in.
But well done indeed, 10 out of 10 you have successfully managed to distract the thread from what is possibly the most key bit of positive information we have seen in a while. You are now starting new threads on another de-ramper. So its worked. Well done. Well done indeed.
I won't engage with you or Hydra31 further, both of you have objectives to create negativity and distraction, Neither of you are LONG here so load up on your short and pray because you have seen the award, you know how big it is £3 BN and you know its a 4 year deal and you know what's coming...
As a result of this award it endorses the companies LONGEVITY and that will ultimately result in the stock being rated correctly as a Diagnostics business and NOT on a discounted short term cash basis.
Now if you would like to go and invest elsewhere please jog on. I personally have read enough of your cr@p on here for a lifetime, i'm totally not interested, you have nothing of substance to add i just truly hope that the Share Price rallies next week and your short becomes very expensive to cover off.
Good BYE
hamster,
I just don't see why people should be attacked for their number of posts or anything else which is personal. If my observation is wrong in some way, they should try to convince me otherwise, instead of attacking me. I don't walk on water. People make mistakes. I've always admitted my mistakes, and have always tried to back up my statements by evidence.
I'll be glad if you posted more, seeing as you come across as rational and thoughtful.
Thank you again for your post. I hope you don't get any flack because of it. All the best, SC
SC; Many thanks, though as it happens, your average is 2.396 posts per day, Saintsmith is 2.167, and mine is 3.79, many of which are observations or just general comment across some of my portfolio.
@SS and AB ,
Thanks for your fair assessment of my posts, it is much appreciated.
However I still await SC's evidence regards her accusations.
She avoided my original queries also and appears to clutch at straws when pressed or cornered.
Scaredicat indeed.

Thank you for the observation. At least, he can't say that I have any more time on my hands than he does.
Scarediecat; As you joined in Jan 21 & Saintsmith in Mar 20, it would seem that you have more time on your hands, (just), but in reality there is not much between either of you in posting frequency?...I am not taking sides, just making an observation...
tkr234,
Totally agree with you. We need more information, before rampers start ramping.
Saintsmith,
You have 838 post to my 247. So which one of us has more time on their hands? You only need to see his posts to me and his earlier post to crl123 to know whether he is a nice chap. I'm going to filter you now as you have never added anything to my knowledge of this share.
Lets face it lads,we will still be in the dark till GM has the surgery to have the stitchers removed from his tongue.GLA.
Anders,
I said that the November 2020, which I assumed the company knew more about (as it was awarded more than 5 months ago) would have been built into the sp. As you may have noticed, the company knows a lot of things that we don't know about until they're ready to tell us. But, I feel strongly that the bigger shareholders would have been informed (otherwise why did BR start selling so much?) I'm fully happy to accept that NO-ONE knows what that tender has produced for us, if this is your understanding.
So, when we know how much of that we've got, maybe the sp will go up - it depends on the numbers. Since we don't know, it's anyone's guess what will happen. The same for the new tenders. Until bigger investors can put a price on these tenders, they're not going to react as we do here. I remember how excited we all were about the Versalab and how unmoved the IIs were. I don't want us to make that mistake again. That's all. I bought more shares because of Versalab, and increased my losses threefold.
All I'm saying is that, this time, I want to wait and see what the IIs are doing before I make a commitment again.
ScardieCat, what on earth are you on? Troublesome has never accused anyone of being a shorter, in fact I don't recall him being particularly negative towards anyone (except the Conservative party and our Boris). You are possibly the 'cat' among the pigeons running with the hares and hounds and trying to stir up trouble as you see fit. Don't be so harsh! There is room for everyone here!
Porky,
If you go to the bottom right of the link, you 'll see that all the buys and sells come to an aggregate of 213,527 in red with an arrow pointing down (i.e. 213,527 sales more than buys). To the left of that there's a figure of 3,182,572 which represents the shares still held. The formula (3,182,572 + 213,527) will give you the total shares prior to the movements which would have been (3,396,099) so the change in holding is calculated as (213,527 / 3,396,099) = 6.29% lower if you consider all IIs and MMs. I don't know what the 4.51 stands for. I thought it was the percentage of shares sold over those bought but it isn't - I should have checked this before assuming. It's actually higher at 6.29% instead of the 4.51% which I quoted earlier.
Now, below the figures, there's a bar and if you pull it to the right and go back up, you'll see that BlackRock Smaller Companies Ord has sold 119,877 shares against which you'll see the figure of 25.24% in red with an arrow pointing down, which was the figure which I quoted here earlier.
However, when I checked just now, I saw another 2 holdings by BlackRock which I hadn't noticed earlier. If we take all three holdings, they total 773,615 and the total movements in all three is (-119,877-516+1270) which comes to -119,123. So the total movement is [-119,123 / (773,615+119,123)] = 13.34%
I apologise for not noticing the other two shares. But, the holding is definitely not up - it's down by 13.34% for BlackRock only as opposed to 6.29% for all IIs.
If you have any other queries or comments, please don't hesitate to ask.
Scardiecat cat , that is quite harsh on troublesome . The only people he is constantly negative about on here is the Tory government . Apart from that I’d say he seems a nice enough chap .
You on the other hand have way too much time and your hands and mistake these share boards for childline the Samaritans a group therapy board or with you dislike for poor grammar “countdown “.
Funnily enough all of the above might be of more use to you than a NCYT board were people like to discuss the share they are actually invested in .
Neilrich3,
I guess it's suggestive that the contracts were awarded on the same day the RNS was announced at 12:30 confirming no extension and dispute.
That's the only way I can explain that tweet. It's not very clear.
We are there twice though
Porky- the thing with being sat on the side is you can take a more objective view of a share.
I would love nothing more than sentiment to return and I’ll jump back in. But those who are invested, need others to invest their capital for the share price to go higher and I think the constant ramping doesn’t help the cause. It just helps the traders.
Will the share price take a run on Monday. Maybe, but if it does it will be on the speculation that we have won a part of these tenders. That hasn’t been announced, we are on a framework and this is old news, we knew we would be. When and if we successfully win a tender on that framework we may see an announcement from the company: I hope it is on Monday.
But if we see a share price rise on mere speculation without RNS from the company, how do you think that ends in the short term? Will any rise be sustained. All those buying in will get burnt as the traders take their scalp. The only thing that is going to move the share for the betterment of long term shareholders is the company actually delivering. And at the moment the evidence the ceo has chosen to show the market doesn’t generate confidence. And he’s a shareholder!
@SC,
I am referring to all 7,208 posts BTW.
Don't think you'll find ramp or ramper there either ?
