I've assumed Miles Pelham sold out as a distressed seller. I met him a couple of years back and he was very positive with me about WBI in its post Obtala markets. But it's only an assumption on my part.

As for trading - WBI's financial figures continue to improve and with Gabon being politically stable - the outlook seems good imo.

Don't forget Cooper Consumer Health are holding a marketing webinar - when we looked at it a couple of weeks back I thought it was forecast to be 17th March but now looking at it today - they don't show a date but state it is end March (which would be Friday 31st). So, does anyone else remember differently - it looks like it has been put back 2 weeks.

I was able to register for it OK after the earlier problems some of us had been having entering our postcodes and requested a 'sample' in the tick box by the way !

Yes - indeed several large BUYS gone through today.
Just did a dummy purchase and was quoted 1.575p

Like the storyline Chizzywizzy47 - welcome to LSE - with posts like yours I can't wait for your Chapter 2 :-)

This is a very good conference that Futura is attending - yes it is a poster presentation but I'm hoping that Ken James will be there to field enquiries but I can't see his name anywhere. However, and perhaps more importantly for soft-selling of Eroxon, Futura's longtime Consultant support Professor David Ralph is actually presenting in several slots for surgical penile implants etc of which he specialises in and so is well regarded in this field.

There are several presentations from him - shown as D Ralph and D.J. Ralph but I think they are the same person. You can see his background from his Harley Street offices:

Altogether, this is another bit of excellent news for us LTHs and augers well for the share price. GLA

There was an unusually large buy this afternoon at 16.10 - 3,000,000 shares bought at 1.46p - has some info leaked ?

Let's hope it presages good news - like Boots stocking the DNA tests perhaps ?

BradSmith - with the price fall to sub 2p isn't anything to do with last Spring's ramping by what were almost criminal posters. Instead, there's been a persistent sell-down by Rhino Ventures of its previously massive holdings - and in the absence of any news about them, I'm assuming its distressed selling for reasons known only to themselves.

Looking back over the years, the sp has always bounced strongly on news - and then fallen back a little each day subsequently. I think this time the BoD has been much better in its publicity announcements the past months and so feel there's a good chance the sp will hold on to its gains. Long term in any case, the sp should steadily grow dependent solely on level of sales.

There were 3 large sells at close of trading Friday 12million and 2 x 50million shares shown as priced at £180k and £750k.

Yet the price held steady. These are likely to be either Rhino Ventures and/or Lombard Odier. I guess we’ll see an RNS this week.

It’s quite a mystery what’s happening here with WBI as they’re trading exceedingly well - could it be tax related as we’re coming to the end of this fiscal year in 6 weeks ?

I wasn’t able to confirm my interest in attending the webinar for same reason ‘Postcode’ not accepted (despite me trying different addresses). Seems UK addresses not acceptable.

Chaiwala - you were also very positive 13 Dec 2022 10:21 posting:

"Yesterday i bought £10K worth of shares and it was shown as sell! I’m not gna fall into mms trap"

Be patient - WBI will bounce back.

Interesting read - thanks fourprinces. The quote "It is pertinent to mention that ****stanis are bearing the brunt of skyrocketing prices of petroleum products" says it all.

JoeCreed - I wouldn't characterise it as "Despite the big sale"

There was a fair spread of dealing back and forth all day and the trend was positive. I was thinking about adding more during the day and I was quoted for a 1million shares .2399p.

It could be looking good for an upswing with Coro after such a lengthy decline - but that's only my gut feeling.

Thanks Jonah58 - so the recent large selling is Lombard Odier - not Rhino in this case. Given that LO was a major contributor to the 2p placing a while back, I'm surprised. But could be in their case, portfolio management ahead of the new financial year in April ?

We are being misled by the limited information we've received - the cold facts are the wellness tests are NOT selling. I want them to succeed but clearly they are refusing to invest in marketing - that was the same with Covid if you remember - they relied on the panic and set their price competitively - market dynamics took over and they got as much business as they could handle.

Unfortunately, PM seemingly lacks in her skill-sets - spending on marketing.
But she recognised the need to get the retail chemists onside for Covid sales. So, that being the case, I'm frankly surprised to put it mildly why she hasn't made a beeline for getting them to do the marketing for her with the wellness tests.

As I've said before, I received very many emails from the company re wellness tests but never any 'killer' messages offering an inducement to buy - why ever not - it's a crazy waste of their massive database !

Only an rns confirming that at least Boots offering the wellness tests is going to lift the sp.

I have to say guys that my take on this is disappointing. It was delayed coming because, in my opinion, as we've all worked out, the wellness products are not selling. They are not being marketed either - which point is more serious in my opinion. They have cash resources which should be used in part to market the business and add more personnel as needed - they are only a lightly run ship as it is. There's no way I can see they have the appetite to take over failing businesses - some of which have been discussed on this BB.

There is a distinct lack of ambition from the BoD - possibly because of the stress managing such heavy throughput of the low margin LFTs on small staff resources. Today's RNS doesn't give us really any serious clues as to what they have done or going to do to address this. For the moment I will hold on to the shares I have but not looking to buy any more - the risk reward ratio is nowhere near good enough.

All the best everyone.

There were some big Sells today (well I''m assuming that's what they were) in excess of 15,000,000 - has to be Rhino Ventures I would have thought - perhaps we'll have a TR-1 this week so we can estimate how many more shares left. I still feel the underlying company is very good as it's continued increase in trading underlies but, what can only be distressed selling, makes uncomfortable reading.

Still need patience everyone. GLA

Great find smudge99 - first decent bit of news we've seen from MHC for a long time. Re. Concepta Diagnostics was the original company - but I don't recall if MHC was reversed into it at the time of the placing ? If so, perhaps that's why they're keeping it ? And as for SaMD, I can't get my head round that ;-)

OK guys - can we have a rest on YGEN please.

I don't think I've seen the Glucose test on Amazon but the other 4 are there still - although I can't see any info from Amazon as to take-up. It wasn't so easy to find the tests - took quite a bit of searching - if I recall I had to put in myhealthchecked. So I'm guessing the seller has to pay something to get them pop up ahead of others ?

I'd like to see some response from MHC pretty soon - it's a little uncomfortable, even for a seasoned investor, to wait for news when it's not looking likely that the products are selling. The recent TrustPilot reviews make uncomfortable reading too.
