No need for any of that - we are just in waiting mode. If the bid is successful we get £5.90 a share but its looking likely they will have bid higher if they want PAYS.. If it fails we carry on as usual - the SP may fall a bit but not much. If we get another bid that is successful we get more. Just hold and wait.

Yes, it is only the shorts who can give us clarity on TCM in the short term - by carefully studying their actions we may be able to predict what the SP will do. Meanwhile we wait.

It will take far more than an RNS to change things here. This is going to be a long hard battle with the shorts and only a good set of results in 6 months or even a years time will bring this sorry chapter to a close. But when it is over the SP will fly.

Another good day for the shorts - no sign this is going to be different anytime soon - complete manipulation of the SP at the moment. We have little choice but to just hold and wait for them to cash out but they are still adding at the moment. http://shorttracker.co.uk/company/GB00B06GM726/all

While the short term is very uncertain for TCM, there is no evidence that the long term future is not bright other than a few fake news reports. Broker reports for the company, both issued in August, are still positive with just a reduction in target price. TCM hasn't been suspended and the NOMAD hasn't flagged anything. Goldman are still buying. We just have to be patient and hold - when all the dust has settled and the shorts are reducing, TCM will become a strong buy again and the SP will fly. How long that will take is any ones guess.

hex We all accept that there is a risk when we invest, especially in AIM listed shares that are generally listed as higher risk - this goes with saying. These discussion boards are all about opinion - but you also should stick to facts. Clearly Mr Cats problems were facts and he has gone but a lot of the other allegations have no basis in fact - if they had TCM would have been suspended by now, the NOMAD would have flagged it and Goldman would not have been buying. Like most other fast growing AIM companies there is a level of volatility and this in turn increases the risk but the SP has clearly been punished excessively and the SP undervalues the company. The balance of probability is now that the SP will rise but the time frame is uncertain.

The short position was built up to take advantage of the recent events - it will now slowly reduce. The shorts make their money when they close their positions this will also cause the SP to rise because they have to buy shares to close. My best guess is that they will close very slowly in the run up to the next set of results in 6 months time.

The danger is passed we are in recovery mode. The only uncertainty is how long the recovery is going to take. TCM itself is a sound company producing products that sell at a good profit with healthy demand. The current SP undervalues the company - hence it will rise or TCM will be the subject of a takeover.

Xan21 Just be patient and hold - SP will rise - eventually.

It seems that the shorts now have such a grip on TCM that they have complete freedom to manipulate the SP to their full advantage - how long this will continue is any ones guess. Their positions actually increased on Monday. http://shorttracker.co.uk/company/GB00B06GM726/all As private investors we have little choice but to hold, the SP will rise eventually, or maybe the next move will be bid for TCM.

After all the mad activity it looks like things will now go into slow motion as the shorts gradually reduce - they are clearly manipulating the SP at the moment to their maximum advantage. Don't take any notice of the scare stories from other posters this is now simply a case of waiting for the SP to rise again. There is no reason to take a loss here but our patience may be tested to breaking point.

Shorts seem to still be in control - I guess because they own such a high percentage - also we don't know how many positions there are open below 0.5%. So its still a waiting game for holders and I think a strong buy for a long term hold. Mr Cats has grown TCM, it is now well placed for the new CEO to come in and mature it.

We are starting to see the first signs of reduction from the historical data - this only includes data up to last Thursday 10th August. http://shorttracker.co.uk/company/GB00B06GM726/all

hex314 I simply repeat - "Remember that the only ones who will benefit from any continued uncertainty are the shorts and they are clearly doing their best to sow discontent." The bogus evidence has been discounted - we have moved on!!

ma5k You have that luxury and other options for investment.

As I said - "Remember that the only ones who will benefit from any continued uncertainty are the shorts and they are clearly doing their best to sow discontent." The bogus evidence has been discounted - we have moved on!!

All the evidence now points to the fact that TCM is in recovery mode and the SP will slowly rise over the coming days as the shorts close. Anyone who states differently clearly has their own agenda. Remember that the only ones who will benefit from any continued uncertainty are the shorts and they are clearly doing their best to sow discontent.

I guess we could get another 2-3 days of this with the SP rising as the shorts cash out, although it will probably slow down a bit. The judgement now is when to sell - certainly not yet with the SP increasing. I think there is also a good case for selling half and keeping half into 2018.

Nothing has changed over the weekend - the CEO was expected to go - the speculation was just speculation. The shorts will start to close now - they will take their profit. The SP will rise - just hold.

I certainly think that there is a good case here for averaging down if as expected the SP falls to rock bottom. Although if the large investors stay put it may not collapse to the same extent. After all being in administration has made little of no difference to the eventual success or failure of RX004.
