Don't you mean close your short in the 6's.

This is a read between the lines appointment. Take at look at his Linkedin entry.

Could be that Tom catches a cold - eh sunset.
You'll never know.

On 29.04.20 DEV announced a partnership with Lenovo. On 06.07.20 DEV announced a partnership with Veative who in turn it is revealed has partnered with Lenovo. Recently DEV announced two contracts worth in excess of $1.2 million. Yet sunsetsupper is critical that "there is no clue as to revenues".

I would understand the criticism if those arrangements had been announced in 2019 but they were not. What does he expect? That DEV should be reporting revenues of millions upon millions? DEV is a growth company in a growing field.

We are entitled however to assume that the likes of Lenovo have not engaged with Dev Clever without understanding that Dev Clever has something to offer and if that offer is good enough it will bring good revenues.

barnard - by replying to him you are giving him oxygen. He has clearly got a negative position, is likely shorting the stock and I am as clear as I can be in my mind as to who the person behind the pseudonym is. Let him speak to himself.
We know that the company has recently received funds from Intrinsic and leave it at that.

Rightly or wrongly I regard Sunset as Tom. I regard Mr Cautious as his name denotes, a very nervous investor which is his privilege.

Whilst "Education and Edtech partnerships........... remain the focus of the company" not bad to have the ability to deal with matters arising from today's release.

Joey - Do you have a view on yesterday's declaration by Intertrader of in effect an increase shares/ instruments?

I am always suspicious of Tom Winnifrith and his motives. At least we know who he is. With most posters on bulletin boards readers do not have a clue as to their identity. I may be wrong but I am deeply suspicious of sunsetsupper and his ID and motives for he only recently started posting on this thread at a time when about the same time as Tom Winnifrith launched his attack on Dev Clever.

I recall two stocks which shall remain nameless , the one in which I had held shares, sold but in which I remained interested as to the company's progress; the other a stock in which I was still invested. Tom Winnifrith was advising investors in both cases to in effect sell or avoid investing in each of those stocks. In the case of both companies, I am convinced, but could not prove it (but was certain on the balance of probabilities) that TW was posting using pseudonyms "downing" the companies.

In the first of the two companies I no longer held stock but there was a predator lurking and whilst TW was advising that the company's share price over valued the company, it was eventually acquired for a share price between 2 and 3 times the then price at which TW was telling readers was an over-value.

As all readers know, there are a number of ways in which one can invest in the stock market. The principal ways are to buy shares or short shares. It suits the buyer to buy at a low value and in due course sell. For the shorter it suits the shorter to sell then, either do the honourable thing and wait for the price to fall and close the short (buy back the shares which you have sold) or using a heinous motive and **** off the company, causing holders to panic and sell and then the shorter buys the stock back.

It is a matter for readers to work out whether any particular poster has an agenda but I always look when I notice a new poster and check for how long that the poster has posted. If the poster is downing the company and is new it immediately occurs to me that the poster is shorting the stock and I ask myself who might the poster really be.

Few of us know whether Chris Jeffries and his team will make a success of Dev Clever but I am encouraged by what poster London Tradersty has had to say about him; a balanced poster dealing with the pluses and minuses of CW. I also believe that certain of our large investors would not have invested so much without meeting the man and forming their own impression.

Just as readers should be wary of those who post "riches tomorrow" so should they be wary of those who "down" a company. In his recent attack TW villified the trading statement but I ask you did he refer to the new contract win?

We are all open to criticism including me. The above comments are derived from my opinion.

As ever DYOR.

It is a shame that you appear to be negative about every stock on which you post.

barnard - sunsetsupper has just appeared. He has no shares in the company and imo may well have an agenda.

I looked again at your posts of 1st September this morning which, as you know from my own posts at the time, I appreciated for your insight.

You have very fairly summarised the current position resulting from today's news. Thanks.

Reasonable new contract from which income should come. The Lenovo etc connections will add to revenues. All that plus the Intrinsic raise will set the come in good stead. So long as that money is used to fund further development and not wasted on board jollies (less chance of that I hope since DEV is not an AIM listed company) investors should see a good growth company.
Possible further investment from a third party so long as Chris Jeffries and team show their ability to grow revenues and even a take out. We will see.

Barnard - you could do worse than look again at the posts of London Tradersty dated 1st September which deal with history, are balanced and articulate. I find those coupled with the large investments by certain investors, helpful.

I agree Dip666 with your comments and those of renroc. I feel more at ease but I have to say that I had become uneasy with my investment. It is worth while keeping an eye on the tweets of Alan Duff and Chris Akers; for instance Chris Akers has tweeted a reference to a further investment by Owl Resources in the Edtech sector which I recommend. (sorry I am lousy at copying information from one site to another).

Although a different sector one can see how Zoom has exploded. Investments in Edtech will take time to mature but I prefer to be than out. As I see it we are entitled to feel confident that DEV is funded for the foreseeable future.

London Tradersty. Thank you for the insight.

Thank you Harley - hope the reasonable endeavours referred to are spiced with some gusto. The ASLR acquisition is an Interesting development for lesser mortals like me.

Now seen the RNS. The broad brush contents of my post still stand however.

You are both invested.

Fraryan - click on a poster's name and you will be able to check the poster's previous posting history. London Tradersty has always been open, helpful and articulate with his views. For all we know, all may be well with the proposed Intrinsic investment but those like me who have been critical about lack of information or wanton timely information appear justified. I do not know Chris Jeffries but I have spoken with him; too little to formulate an opinion. LT may well be right about him - great ideas man - poor manager and leader. Chris Akers and Alan Duff are in a better position than me to formulate a view and they are both well invested.
