Thanks tosh, nothing like a little light lubrication to bring out the honesty! Sounds like you’re in a very similar boat to me, investment size, proportion of your portfolio, now back in the red....determination to hold out for the ME contract. Ned - I’d be amazed if this doubles. For me it’s either halving for getting north of 60p, can’t see what could make us get to high 30s without smshing on through towards a pound

Indulge me Tosh....have you changed your shareholding since you came into possession of information that confirms it’s 100% Oman? I know for sure that I would. I get that you’re not saying it’s 100% sure it will sign, but if it is Oman I don’t see why they’d be backing out at this late stage.

we don't need luck, "it is 100% Oman"

i know that...but only a moron would take investment advice from people who they've never met on a free website. but people do base investments on what they read here.....not advice per se, but "information" that they gather. i'm personally still not convinced it's Oman, never was.....really hope i'm wrong and you're right

these kind of things always make me chuckle...i''m in no way calling Tosh a liar and if i was in receipt of that kind of information then i certainly wouldn't share it (as he said, wouldn't want to lose access to the person in question) and i'd i probably find it too hard not to drop little hints on here.......but it still can't be taken as anything to base an investment on. watch: "i've just sold out my shares in Apple to fund another top up here. a friend who will remain nameless has given me the nod (if you know what i mean). all i'll say is that i'm very confident with where the contract is and and 99.9% sure that it is going to be signed and this share is going to go nuts. can't say more. i'll just say that i'm not selling a single share of this" all of the above is b0llocks, but didn't exactly take long to come up with...anyone want to beg me to tell you where the contract is?

it's not a remotely helpful comment for the sellers, but this is why you should only invest in AIM what you can afford to lose....it's very similar to gambling. for me nothing is different today than yesterday or a month ago.....the shares are slipping on no news, but since there's been no bad news either i just see it as a hold and wait game. yes it's frustrating but why sell today and not last week or the first day of this quarter? if you've got a time horizon because you need the cash back out then it shouldn't be anywhere near being invested in AIM...stick it in the main market, in an ETF, a fund..anything safer than AIM - where any share can easily halve in a day.

i agree, the next news should be the ME contract, anything else is a disappointment. i fear that the next news will be the full year results in June though. they used to be in April but that was pre 2010, these days they're first week of June or last week of May.

I deleted my response to the eminent comment. I kind of assumed it was someone trying to wind up people....assumed they couldn’t have such a poor grasp of the English language.

Yes....that was point. The slow decline of the SP is not quicker because there is so much in ISAs. But thanks for helping to clarify

all this could well happen....but until something does i suspect the very slow (thanks to so much locked up in ISAs etc) decline will continue.

whilst we're making random and unsubstantiated guesses i think it will be late May. i just hope that they can tell us before then that they're looking to be profitable in 2018 regardless of the ME (increased Lungi, no ferry, new scanner contract)....would take a bit of pressure off the long term contracts if they can wash their own face without them.

for it to be an after hours RNS on a Friday they'll have to sign the contract after say 4pm (giving them a little time to write the RNS and get it out)...that would be after 8pm on a Friday in the middle east.....on their weekend - so i think unlikely i think it may well be another intra-day RNS....i'd like that personally. gives the best hope of a post contract top up.

don't put it all in one place.,....that's mental. there are loads of pharma companies out there are going to make the next life changing drug and are guaranteed to 10 bag when the phase III trials come through positive....practically guaranteed....best value on AIM.....no chance of it going to zero when the trials fail because there is no actual business there. i'd definitely sell out of this company, it might actually be just about profitable with the underlying business....where's the fun in that??? all in DHC's opinion, IMO

gotta get over the buys and sells......it's simply not accurate enough to be meaningful.

i'm less convinced, and always was....but to be fair there has been no announcement of any other company providing the service...so either they're going to stick with the police or will announce who it is as some point in the future.

i'm gonna disagree with just your opinion there DHC. i'd be aghast if this went to main market....i see us staying on AIM until we either shrink to nothing or (hopefully) get bought out. can't see this growing to a stage where is too big for AIM without a buyer coming in....there are 9 companies with market caps of over �1bn on AIM, it can handle fairly large companies but i agree re other RNSs in terms of them being the real kicker that we need. as soon as the ME contract lands then there should be profitability on the horizon and the other MOUs will start to get priced in....that's why the opportunity here is massive, and the downside should be limited.......just need a few more months of patience hopefully. please happy that we're not Muscat now? opened a long time ago now.

sorry for getting a bit OTT about it there....but it was down 8.33% this morning, now -3.57% - i'd say it's pretty volatile

WSG has a 360day price volatility of 107 - AIM all share average is 57 So there are 83 AIM stocks with higher volatility and 662 with lower 90d vol works out even worse - 741 out of 775 i'd say it's a pretty volatile stock, and that's just on AIM (Volatility being measured by standard deviation)

why would they want stock that badly? they can't be stocking up as they have strict risk limits and certainly won't know any more than us about the contract signing timeline.

i'm not convinced that the MMs have any more knowledge than we do....i.e they don't know when/if it will land. so i'd be shocked if their risk departments let them take large positions in a stock as volatile as this
