Just a thought.
He says "someone has been aggressively selling".
Britdaq is a matching site, so he would know exactly who was selling.
A look at his site, with the Stop Winnifrith banner still proudly displayed along with the Litigation Update tab, and the 2016 Award, is a reminder of the length of this saga. The considerable amount of effort being put in to imminent news lines are surely exhausted by now?

Yes perhaps, although you mustn't regard a one off disposal as being core profits. The group has been growing, with some of the new acquisitions contributing very well. Debt reduction is another factor. From being moderately risky at the time of restructuring, debt has fallen back to a comfortable level in comparison. Dividends is another factor, and is a particularly strong reason for me to be cautious about disposal. You can imagine what percentage return they represent on some of my earliest buys.

If there does come a point where this share is overvalued due to sp growth or a reversal in fortunes, then of course I'd have to consider it. On track record I'd expect the former to be much more likely than the latter, but I do consider that there is some way to go before fair value is reflected.
All just MHO of course

Thanks for your thoughts Bern.
The fundamentals have been sound for a very long time now, due praise to the board for balancing growth with stability during uncertain times for the sector. Nor could I attribute the recent movement to coverage and recommendations, there have been many others over the years I've been watching. What we've seen of late has been outside of my experience on this particular share, having been achieved with practically zero hoo haa. Hence the "what's going on" question. Not seeking to start any rumours, just wondered if anyone else had spotted something I hadn't.
Thanks for the portfolio advice. I came in to this one by peeling off substantial profits from bank shares purchased in the depths. Given their performance since it proved to be reasonable timing, though by no means perfect. My issue would certainly be the "where to reinvest" problem, I have a friend who invests only main market, he is crying, small caps are more than enough in my bunch, oilies and miners are a car crash, retail a no no. I don't find the time to study a lot these days. I've nearly completed another property investment, but am wary of doing any more in that region. Looks like it'll have to be wine, women and song then :-)

Something happening here? We've seen a rising pattern for quite a long period now.
Very happy to see it.

I wish I could make it, it would be good to meet some folks. Unfortunately my work situation doesn't allow me to be there.
Sparkling form again today, another new high?

Aiming for a new behavioural low aren't you.

The health claim for Fruitflow concerning airborne particulate emissions would have to be subjected to many stages of elaboration before being commercialised with an actual product.

All too easy to overlook that reality. Spouting a load of "why don't they" unresearched bilge is much more in vogue.

Wishing ill on other investors on the basis of your own failings is the pits IMO

The clue may be in the title.
Alaskan Update

Selecting certain parts in order to support a particular view is not uncommon.

DSM grant support to brands launching products, these investments in the future are paid for jointly because the AA is a profit sharing agreement. Therefore the effect on revenues has been shown in receipts to date. It's feasible that further brand launches could continue to hold back net revenues, but are highly important over the longer term.

What the US President does on Twitter can have zero effect on a company like By Health, they have a colossal internal market, and don't appear to have any market in USA. Their expansion has been rapid, and they are resourced well enough to fully exploit the lab proven opportunities currently being undertaken.

Two possible answers.
1. It was collected at 6.00 pm yesterday
or
2. It is still played on Remembrance Day

Puzzling is your determined attempts to discredit only one poster.
I observe a share that I hold, and comment on the development of the business. Countless times I have said that NOT ONE of us knew the timescales involved in getting Fruitflow commercially developed. Therefore all of the criticism is due to folks imagining they did know, and being proven wrong.
Admin have removed an awful lot of your posts which contain only digs at me, and I thank them for that, because it is frankly a stupid waste of time to anyone reading them. And an even more stupid waste of time by the writer

Depends if you believe they are genuine, or just MM's deeking about on tiny spreads. Meantime, their spokesperson keeps up the negative droning.

All too obvious.

It seems that plain "saying it as I see it" is out of fashion these days.

Of course, new posters with historical knowledge may appear in total innocence.

The cynic that I am believes otherwise

Not managing to provoke any selling are you. I fear your days are numbered. Roll on the next tactical poster, this one wasn't up to much.

Ahh, one of the infamous Riddler's sycophants feels the need to carry on a years old vendetta. Bless.
I couldn't concur with a view that is so inaccurate. Then again, my strategy here couldn't be more different, having got me to the stage where a very modest uplift would bring good rewards.

Very easily.
Chow is on the board to inject a little humour.
You appeared to inject some despondency.
Both very deliberate in intent.
There was no news to cause the slight rise, there is no news to cause the slight fall, but there are folks who try to influence movement.
You are one.

No more than you are.
Just as obvious

Suggests decent growth of sales, but I think the next period, if it showed further increases, would be significant.
Never fast enough, that's the key rule of growing a sales line. I liked the DSM offering with more ingredients aimed at older consumers, hope that could form a part of the future range of FF+ offerings, but accept that it would be another investment that may not be feasible right now.

OK. What did YOU do when you made the judgement that SM was holding the poisoned chalice?

Each of us made a judgement call, and traded accordingly.
Some were in a position to throw a lot of money in at once, buying with scant regard for where the project was at, expecting everything to happen in a short timescale. Even the directors expected that. Blame DSM if you care to, but the evidence of their continued emphasis of Fruitflow as a major part of their range doesn't support that view.
Others fed their buys in over a protracted timescale, leaving averages that look a lot more manageable.
Some express honest views on here, some don't. Some don't take responsibility for their own decisions.
That's life
