Member Info for AIMing_high

Yrabs: don't get me wrong, i agree with you.......the communication out of the company is generally pretty terrible. and, considering how many times we've been whipped up into a contract frenzy only for nothing to appear, i think that we deserve a little more information than your average AIM investors. all 'm saying is that he's got a ll the power so i can understand from his point of view why he's keeping schtum. it's like Brexit (sorry)......the EU are not being particularly nice in the negotiations, but then they have all the power so don't have to.

will be interesting to see how much criticism is still leveled at PF if the contract comes and the share price flies.....i'd hope that Foxy still has a word or two of complaint to share!

yrabs: say we're making good money, this might increase or (much less likely) decrease a little when the final terms are in. we also have money coming in from the tech contract so there is no need to raise money any time soon. shareholders are annoyed at the radio silence and the share price slide, but the market already has no confidence in the company. what does he lose keeping quiet? SP drops a little further (no issue if no raising capital) and there are more complaints from shareholders - just delete a few more emails.

my point is that it doesn't cost him anything to not tell us, and then he can have his big RNS reveal and enjoy the share price rise. all will be forgiven if the RNS is good and the share price is back into the 20/30/40s.

he's received a lot more criticism on here for crap information rather than a lack of it......how many times has he over promised? probably thinks it's best to keep quiet until he has a fully signed contract to shout about.

and anyway..who's been buying today? that's not how things go....i want a sub 8p top up

yrabs: i get your frustration, but we do get told exactly how much money the company is making....twice a year.

investors can force management to disclose more via engagement or voting......but that's when the shareholders are powerful. on AIM shareholders are weak and so management can do what they want....the quid pro quo for that is a massive asymmetry to the potential returns.

be grateful that you got back from Japan before it really started to pour!

Tosh: by definition of the fact that we're still invested here...doesn't that make us stupid?!?!? ;-)

i agree that panic is a tag over the top...but it is an odd concept to me to bail now and be back in a month.

say there is no movement for a moth, maybe we drop from 8.7 to 7.7p - but it costs you 0.2p to sell, 0.2p to buy back in....you've saved 0.6p a share......yet if there is an RNS in that time you may have to pay double to get back in.

granted it could fall further, but if that's your central thesis then you probably should have sold out a while ago.....to me it's odd to hang on in this long and then bail so close to a possible RNS. yes we're always "so close to a possible RNS" but the downside is limited to 8.7p now.....the upside could easily be a >30p gain within weeks

each to their own......as most know, i havbe much more issue with rampers than [eople being negative. so good luck in whatever you chose.

Foxy: i used to be great at averaging down....but then my best stocks stopped letting me do that...my broker won't let me buy any more.....he keeps telling me that you can't buy more of a delisted or bankrupt stock.

white water canoe slalom? he pushed off at the top and is basically in the lap of the gods, very occasionally managing to stick his paddle in to get through a gate before careering off down the course out of control again

if this keeps trickling down on no news then i might break my own rule and add a little more again in the next couple of weeks (I've been so good since July)....just need to wait for the mortgage extension to come through.

(that's a joke! don't worry, i'm not that mad)

Day before the AGM in June - Market Cap - a sniff over £8m
Market cap now - a sniff over £12.6m

so the market is pricing in Tema (previously unknown), the KSA JV (previously unknown) and the training JV (previously unknown) at around £4.6m - and that's assuming that Iran was not and is still not priced in (quite correctly), and that the growth in Lungi remains priced in as was.

i can understand the market skepticism in general...but we're getting paid for Tema !

oh well, c'est la vie.

i'm not too bothered about the lack of update. if they can give us enough information to put some reasonably accurate numbers into models then the share price will go to a certain level, rather than up a certain %. If we can work out that this contract is worth 50p a share then it will go there (or more likely a PF discount for past missed targets).....that's the case if it's increasing 100% from 25p or 500% from 10p

maybe i'm being naive but to me this story isn't that bad.....it just explains the positions. MPS are not going to have their contract cancelled. there are demands being made and an offer from MPS......they'll find some kind of compromise and all will be sorted.......in the mean time we're getting paid.

happy days.

win: they didn't have to mention Ghana and definitely did so to have a better AGM.....but if they'd kept quiet util singing then the sleuths on here would have found out by now...after all WSG's name has been linked publicly with Tema.

Apologies for the slightly off topic, but the boss of Sirius has said that bulletin boards are a disgrace and should be banned. i assumed it was because of the criticism he received there...but no, he's saying that people have invested too heavily on the advice of strangers....i'd say that's pretty fair.

There are certainly those on here that have put too much into WSG...may well turn out to be a great investment......but certainly not a sensible one. As iam pointed out, financial advisers will tell you steer clear of AIM with your core pot. maybe fun for a flutter, but has to be viewed more like gambling...only put at risk what you can afford to lose.

Whilst that seeking alpha article was very positive, I’m struggling to find much mention in “real” media. A couple 6 days ago (Politico and Times of Israel). Can’t help but feel that it would have made more of a splash if something was actually happening ???

I’m sure we’ll still be getting paid - most likely on the old tariffs as they will be a floor level.

The Iran numbers may be a little out of date now. The economy has been decimated by trump’s sanctions. But hopefully if he tries to make this a pre election “win” then there might be a decent rebound.

Don’t think this will be enough to save him. Jamie Dimon said, a couple of weeks ago, that Trump could beat Sanders and maybe Warren but that Biden would win if given the nomination. I suspect he’s correct, and with Trump going after him and Sanders being ill I think that trump may loose the sleazy one white guy race next November.

Retirement age is a moot point....I’m 37 and could retire. I’d have to move to a cheaper house, forget about the prospect of private school and stop the holidays but I could do it......retiring young isn’t necessarily a sign of success. Could indicate burn out, lack of ambition, ill health, large inheritance or simply a case that no one will employ you any more.

I’m sure yours is down to a highly successful career and very shrewd investing....but I’m just saying.

You’re = you are
Your = belonging to or associated with the person or people that the speaker is addressing

BBs = multiple buliten boards
BB’s = possessive; belonging to said buliten board

I have to agree with you iam. It’s no place to invest real money.....mental note, must taken own advice!

Judging by your 11k+ messages you must have had a fair whack of AIM shares.....they did the right thing pulling you out

RRE has done incredibly well. Well done sir. It screams AIM though....can’t find which index it’s in. Odly not AIM or FTSE all share. Anything that can go up 4000% in 2 years and still only be £240m is gagging to be on AIM

Iam: i really hope your professional investors sold the guff (WSG) that you bought and it’s not a case that they bought it and then changed their minds. No professional investor should be advising clients to go anywhere near AIM with their hard earned cash. It’s a ludicrous place to invest ...... it’s a fun place to gamble though.
