Samsung making PR by reducing toxic content of thier QD. They don't mention Cadmium free QD, but cadmium does get a mention in relation to performace. Not sure of the direct implications for us, but Interesting all the same.

I think we have had the same seller for a number of weeks. They started in mid September sold down to the support level 23p and then stopped to let it go back to the resistant level 29p today we have more sells than buys.
Sold 467,823
Bought 203,179
We don't know how many they have to go, but support is still at 23p. If your looking for an entry or top up to top up its about now, imposible to call the exact bottom.

There is a paid for report out showing HYDRIODIC ACID MARKET TO WITNESS ASTONISHING GROWTH WITH KEY PLAYERS IOFINA, AJAY-SQM, HANWEI CHEMICAL.

Welcome, sentiment does appear to becoming more positive.
Out of curiosity what made you buy in?

The pricing controls have been lifted and as a non conventional gas oil producer we're in a strong postion regarding forth coming government energy manifesto.

Good news
Purchase completed, RNS not showing on LSE

Three still involved, they don't mention in thier bio on the SO4 Web page but you'll find easy enough on Web search

I don't know who the seller or sellers where and there where no holding notifications. We will see if it over today I hope.

We have lots of plates spinning at the moment all centred around iodine, I would now like to hear about firm plans for IO9. We should know tomorrow if the recent seller has finished or is back, concensus is it finished. I'm not so sure they may have stepped back to allow SP to rise to begin again. Confirmation tomorrow. Hold or buy

Unfortunately these directors have previous form with Wildhorse Energy and the markets have long memories. Even so should come good in the long run and should be enough for us little guys as well.

The Iodine price is at $32 to $35 and its highest for a number of years. Supply is reported to be tight and could remain that way for the next 18 months. Also they reports of supply disruption in Chile due to social unrest. The next iodine production facility IO8 should be on stream second quarter 2020. Looking good for IOF

All trades are being reported twice.

The recent seller or sellers have stopped which partly why we are seeing a rise. If they have finished then it should continue up, if they have not then it could stall and drop when they come back in.

Bit more on your find

If I've read it correctly the rns informs us that Investec have opened up a new position, they have held Nanoco in the past. Will they continue to build up a larger holding.

A guess would be a company has made the approach to protect a supply chain and if it is IP related one cast iron way is to own the IP and the process, if you cant own juse that buy the company. Sometimes you need to protect your supply chain from your own customer.
Nanoco are just waving a flag to ask if anyone else is interested before they settle on a price.
All speculation

Comes into effect as you say 1st Jan,

REACH is the over-arching legislation applicable to the manufacture, placing on the market and use of substances on their own, in preparations or in articles. Nanomaterials are covered by the definition of a "substance" in REACH, even though there is no explicit reference to nanomaterials. The general obligations in REACH, such as registration of substances manufactured at 1 tonne or more and providing information in the supply chain apply as for any other substance.
Information on the implementation of REACH for nanomaterials, including guidance and the application of the REACH evaluation processes, can be found on the ECHA website.

The recent buying by ii started after the publication of this article regarding the possible cadmium ban for the EU
