RE: The Cruise to nowhere...9 Dec 2020 08:50
havealot as you point out, as soon as one person on board comes up with COVID the whole cruise is down the tube. The vaccines appear to be 95% efficient which means that out of 100 passengers 95 will be ok whilst 5 will not. Additionally there is no visibility on how long a person will remain immune nor whether any of the vaccines will be effective against strain mutation. I would suggest that testing is here for a while yet and if they can get a move on with the product there is still legs on it for lucrative sales provided it works !!!
To date I have not seen a better all round solution for venues in general; again with the caveat that the product works and works well! They do need to get a wriggle on though as imo the majority of the market cap is built on potential fuelled by the current market climate. As an example, take Fire Angel, a company with 45.5m revenue, investing in it's tech, losses relatively speaking less than ours as a percentage: Market Cap Β£15m.
It is apparent that now the vaccine is out, sentiment is beginning to wane and whilst we have heard (constantly) how good the tech is , it now needs to be backed up in short order with contracts and sales. If not the share price will continue to slide.
I do think it will come as I am invested here , but to push the market cap forward, the time line here is very much finite if we are not to see another sharp drop , my guess in the very early part of next year.
AIMHO of course
