Richie - sorry I have to go out to dinner but the short answer is no.

Coffeecups - yes but the very localised heating might cause the Vanadium to boil out of solution. Having said that I'm confident that Vanadium steel can be welded so in that situation the weld pool is molten for probably a lot longer than the laser pool - so it could be that 1 Bar of atmospheric pressure is enough pressure to keep the Vanadium in the metal solution for long enough.

I'll ask one of my more expert friends the next time I get the opportunity.

Mikinaman - alas Vanadium has to be in atomic suspension inside the crystal structure of the steel so it needs to be fully melted in and mixed. The very rapid heating of the laser blob is likely to cause a change in the underlying material, due to the different vapour pressures of all the elements so if you are unlikely you might find the Vanadium evaporating out of solution (though to be honest I have not checked the vapour pressures so could not be sure.). I suspect also that some cold working is also a necessary part of the Vanadium strengthening process - its nowhere near as dependent on cold working as strengthening with Niobium, which requires very significant crystal deformation to achieve the strength improvements, but it might be enough to completely rule out the forming in-situ from powder 3d printing approach.

I wonder who had the Bed and Breakfast of 120K shares at 3:40pm - anyone here ?

?

Lol you deserve it Sanchez - great to have 5 out of the top 8 as Bushies.

Headancer - i think it is maybe a few more than that - I have the dividing line at 39.95 since 11:30 - that was certainly correct at about 1pm but if anyone has any more precise information at 12 or earlier I'd be happy to hear it

MR - yes - please email me

zeus - yep 1.09M Buys vs 0.646M Sells

The first thing you said that is correct - a 'waste of energy' is what you are so as you clearly cannot be bothered to even read what people direct you to I am not going to respond any further

You need to read https://www.thebushveldperspective.com/blog/public-articles-1/post/mandela-to-mojapelo-a-vision-to-change-africa-for-good-384 from start to finish and then there will be a quiz

You clearly haven't read a single word Nutjob

Indeed

concious - spbhoy's comment makes the situation clear

Thanks spbhoy

YTSS and somtam - I believe that the dividends would only be taxed when they are received as income. I think whilst they are inside the SIPP or ISA wrappers that this would not be the case. This would unfortunately leave the thorny problem of having to distinguish cash taken from an ISA wrapper (tax-free I believe) from dividends being taken from an ISA wrapper (we believe it is taxed) which would seem unworkable. At this point one has to consult an accountant.

somtam - of course the suggestion that you would want to leave dividends inside the ISA wrapper to increase your effective ISA contribution above the yearly limit is made on the assumption that you are in a sufficiently comfortable financial position to be able to put in the yearly limit in the first place. If you aren't then I think it makes no difference leaving the dividends in or not. If you leave them inside then you can make a lower yearly contribution into the ISA.

At some point though, unless you are saving for others, you will want to take some value out of your ISA, and you may be near that point.

Roscon - no they are simply above the advertised Bid-Ask midpoint so LSE.co.uk colours them as Buys. As we know the real trading position moves around quite a bit inside the Bid-Ask band.

Rob - are they your T20's ? Why can't they just be Sells ?
