This looks ready to go now - some much positivity over the last few weeks that RNS has to be imminent - STAR have been criticised in the past for their communications, well all we've heard for quite some time is good news after good news. Everything primed and this looks excellent right now.
There's been talk of deals in the pot for a while now - I wouldn't be surprised if we don't get something next week deal related, simply too many possibilities for there not to be news imminently. A flurry of decent deals ahead of something really big would be preferable for sure, we could even see repeated RNS over a sustained period of time, all short gains, if the deals pending talk is genuine. I genuinely believe we are entering a really good period and god knows AIM is crying out for a winner right now. I think this could well be that winner, starting over the next week or so.
Not so sure, most of the larger holders are here longer term and not looking for an early dump at skim profits. there's holders here that are safe that came in at less than 2 - double digits is awaited for most. Just my opinion, there will be a little sale I guess as that's the market but the majority aren't here for anything less than bagging.
The RNS from Jan is the last actual update of any sort we've had: "The tender process involving the UN project referred to last year included a pilot scheme in Africa and in the USA. This pilot was completed satisfactorily at the end of December 2017 and all customer requirements have been met. However, it is still uncertain as to when a final decision will be made ......... "
There will be PR traffic driven by STAR once NDA expires I'm sure but I would not expect any noise from the Major European Industrial Group who will prefer to leave the impression that the tech is their own. STAR have never been prone to shouting from the hills so this will be a genuine opportunity for them to crank it up as loud as possible and I hope they seize that opportunity, I believe they will as they appear to understand the significance and importance of the association - its a real marker and they know it.
At the heart of any trade is speculation and opinion - informed or otherwise. To this end, see what you want through the noise. As good a buy today as it was yesterday IMO - the concern that the poor, surprise RNS creates is of set by top up at less than 3 this am that being the nature of things. Here's a company that's never been cash rich but has orders being received at rates never experienced before - a product in demand creates wealth regardless of previous CFO's shortcomings.
With pictures of the product clearly on the table at Bosch in Berlin the RNS needs to follow. Whilst the RNS this am and anyone who got it overnight ahead of game (that 12% drop came from somewhere) is both shocking and disappointing I don't want it to knock my belief in the product offering (which it hasn't) or the BoD (which it has). The concern is any funds needed for that UN order fulfilment (IF its coming) have just been made a whole lot tougher to find. So for now, if your a long termer, nothings changed. If you were looking to cash out anytime soon at 10, you've just become one of those long termers.
Personally I think its coming today/tomorrow - anyone following just how big Bosch have gone in Berlin, its perfect for announcing (although naturally this will be Bosch centric, numbers will be floated and STAR linked I think). However and regardless, its not about this week, this month, Q1 or even this year although there will be plenty of cash in opportunity for those that want it - for me sale is 18 months to 2 years away. this could be huge.
100% correct I feel - with the direction they are headed they will be prime TO property inside 2 years I would say. They're are in a buoyant sector, that's rapidly expanding and deals directly/indirectly dependant on product with global hotbed tech. With branded approval (such as Bosch) its now not unrealistic to say they could be extremely well positioned to become the defacto with products like CropX (in particular) and Tetis. They may not sell as many of their own product off the shelf as they will be the core of other manufacturers offers but they could very well be at the heart of Internet of Things (IoT) tech and global positioning hardware. Really, really strong prospect for TO by 2020 ish I think.
as we've been saying Marc, once that seal goes at 3.8 its on. We've all been focussing (well I know I have) on that Bosch and UN news, which is coming and will positively affect but the beauty of STAR is that these aren't essential in the LR. I'm not saying that the orders aren't welcome (!) Star is on the radar, the noises are all good and large market exposure is now achieved so uptake is almost inevitable now or longer term. Nothing but good things here.
Makes sense - as you say with it being visible almost to transparency It's surprising we haven't had the announcement sooner from Bosch - (although the limelight in this context is STARs to have rather than Bosch, whose own promo is likely less affected by STARs in respect o f the UN deal I feel). The other outcome could be that the UN deal isn't coming of course and there is no clash to avoid for Bosch therefore - but knowing STAR is last two and having the previous UN deals to draw from this seems unlikely, competition knowledge pending of course. Just the pessimist in me expressing there, your prediction is far more likely and I agree with it - so here's to next week and a punch through that 3.8 upwards
