For the record and having mulled this thing over a bit, unless I hear something very convincing that changes my mind, I shall be voting against this. I want an asset sale before any adventurous acquisitions, so we can actually afford them.

Well as mine alone is 161, I don't think they're right. Unless he happens to know a really smart cheese sandwich.

.. accept that Tern's progress has been impacted by the late emergence of the IoT and then Covid as well, both of which have delayed the development of DA for example to a degree of maturity and commercial success. Then also accept that AS too is disappointed that it's taken so long and is aware that he's 71 and knocking on a bit. Is it likely that this PIRI thing is actually a way of allowing him to pull back to, say, a non exec advisory role or something whilst handing over to a younger team - the PIRI/RGO lot.

Vista, remember that the values being bandied about here are NAVs. The sale values will be a lot higher based upon some formula that takes account of potential.

How would they know? Surely a bid will come out of the blue.

Personally I've never liked Pires. Their investees don't impress me, and what % do they own? First thoughts are that I don't want this.

Woopee! A trade!
Oh.

I suggest Euro Manganese (EMN on the asx or tsx) is a possible. Czech manganese recovery from mining spoils.

Well it's risen above one of my pretty ropey (tbh) resistance/support lines at 16.6. The next line, which looks more reliable, is at 18.8... that would now be resistance and suggests a new range between 16.5 and 19. Above that it's the old 19 to 23 range.

Just wish I'd followed my instincts and flogged my EMH to go in here back at 12. Was too chicken.

Just want to get rid of that heading

I'm surprised this isn't shooting up frankly.

...appear to have broken through the dreaded 15. Even the theoretic resistance at 16.3. Perhaps we're about to find a new range.

I'm not upset at being called a lefty. Not sure what it means though. In the UK (I no longer live there), anything left of thatcher seems to be 'lefty', whereas the centre is barely discernible from Ayn Rand's vicious neoliberalism. I'll be a lefty any day then. Given you think this is an insult, I presume you're a 'rightie'.

Not all. You go right ahead. As a bleating lefty remoaning woke person, my input woudn't be worth anything, would it? Of course it would take a trumpist conspiracy theorist to assume all that of me anyway, whatever any of it means. Why not swig some bleach? But after you've Copied the reply to your impending missive on here if you wouldn't mind.

Wasn't it GS who trashed the lithium market a few years back with similar claims?

I know you want the truth. I do too. In my opinion though you're so keen to play this down that you're deliberately misreading it. I tire of this ludicrous situation where if anything positive is posted, it's decried as 'ramping'. Yet the cynics who do this don't see themselves as 'deramping'. It's puerile.

I'm sorry but this is a debate about semantics. Let's look at it again.

"This year S&T is proud to introduce its latest R&D efforts for fire fighters, such as a dual-use system for real-time wildfire detection and air quality monitoring, which has been proven in field trials;

the Wildland Firefighter Respirator;

and an opportunity to learn about KeyScaler, a digital platform that provides total device, data and operational trust for IoT, as connected IoT devices play a significant role in the work of first responders."

S&T work across all Homeland Security departments. Keyscaler is appropriate for depoyloyment in all HS departments.
On this ocasion, they are talking to their firefighters.

This does not even suggest that they're not talking to everyone else about KS as well. Why on earth would they not?
Where are the Keyscaler competitors? Why would S&T specificaly mention KS if they're not specifically endorsing KS, as the Homeland Secuity's IT division?

Why are you trying to find fault? It seems obvious to me that this is a valuable endorsment of KS by an organisation that is positioned to very much help KS commercially through their recommendation and endorsement.

Even if you were right, and HS' S&T division is 'only' promoting KS for use with firefighting related IoT devices, which seems highly unlikely, it's still a massive endorsement.

And nothing they say implies that KS is being sold as a Breeze component. There is a semi colon between 'Wildland Firefighter Respirator' and 'and an opportunity to learn about KeyScaler,.....'. Two different subjects therefore.

Occam's razor. Stop twisting it to find fault.

Breeze make sensors. Sensors are IoT devices. IoT devices need securing. Da secure IoT devices. Breeze and DA are two different technology companies with different solutions to different problems. So what's your point?

The article says "...*and* and an opportunity to learn about KeyScaler..." No mention of it as a component in third party equipment, although it might well be.... good. Again, what's your point.

Well I've never shorted, don't know how to and don't want to. But I like your idea of buying twice as much and selling half.

Well if anyone is in a position to play with those sort of numbers, they're lucky. The vastly larger proportion of people on here, and those who don't participate on boards, simply cannot afford to play the game at that level. This is bothersome, as it means nearly all of us are at the mercy of the whims of a few, as is the market cap of many small companies, however hard they work. OK, nothing to be done perhaps. Shorting on the other hand should, imo, be banned. How can it be moral for someone to be able to borrow my shares without my knowledge or consent purely with the aim of reducing their value? Of course the lawmakers are wealthy people who, as vested interests, benefit from it, so nothing is likely to change. But perhaps a debate for another time.
I'm minded to have a go.. sell 10k worth at 15 with a view to buying back at 12. But in the past, whenever I've tried this, I've lost badly. I just wish the bang would happen. Then I can get out of this game.
