Try plotting the number of Scinv's posts per day against the SP movement. It looks like "Scinv post density" is a fantastic predictor of the SP performance.

Assuming that he bought SNG shares around September, and looking at his post history, here's what I think has happened:
1. He bought well above the placing price.
2. The share tanked.
3. He was relieved to see it recover in the second half of December (he actually turned positive, can you believe it?).
4. He lost his patience and sold out on or around 5th January, right after a mini-spike at 160p on 4th January, so probably around the 155-158p mark.
5. He now regrets that decision but still hesitates to jump back in, having been burned once. That's why he turned into a prolific deramper.

Dear Scinv: instead of trying to convince yourself and everyone else that SNG will be a failure, please just learn from the past mistake(s), bite the bullet now and enjoy the ride with us! Whatever money you've lost on SNG so far will be a distant memory in a few weeks' time. Look, even Citadel have decided to reduce (or close completely) their stupid short.

I wish you all the best, honestly. Make this coming Monday the new beginning, the start of a happy life full of joy and no bereft with all this miserable feeling of having missed out.

Shan,

Don't worry: our brilliant PM will decide to split that single dose in half and vaccinate two people with it...

"I'm not doing this again."

Please keep your promises!

Rogerthatsir,

You're absolutely right but what matters to Boris and Handjob is the numbers: as long as they can boast "they've delivered" all will be hunky-dory, even if people die as a result.

This is the most bullish signal for SNG. Pile in if you haven't yet!

Cheers! My rendition of the Star Spangled Banner was quite something but I dropped singing a long time ago.

I'm sure most of you are familiar with this model, so this is for those who still wonder how the hell such outrageously bullish predictions for medium and long term price of Bitcoin can make any sense:

I strongly suspect that a lot of people sold out and moved to pastures new because they need brilliant results to keep them entertained all the time and they now view GGP as a solid but boring play (just Havieron), essentially doubling the money within a year.

Doubling the money sounds like a good opportunity to me but smaller miners provide more excitement (ten-bags, fifty-bags, ... all possible but extremely improbable), so rainbow-chasers are chasing them now.

Even if Havieron results are brilliant next week, I wouldn't expect fireworks. But show me another way of doubling your money with effectively zero risk of losing it?

London_balling,

Apologies, I didn't mean to call you a said loser. I was referring to those dozens or hundreds of people who responded to the original tweet seven to 12 years later. I just cannot understand people crowing over someone's costly mistake, especially if that mistake was made ages ago when BTC was in its infancy.

At the moment, ARB looks like a leveraged play on BTC, and an excellent one at that!

Peace and love!

Matterhorn,

I agree. It just looks like perfect timing by Synairgen, by coincidence rather than design. A P3 trial completed in November would not indicate whether the drug works on the emerging virus strains but a trial starting in January definitely will, given that the majority of hospitalised patients here in the UK carry the UK variant.

I think Prof. Holgate is confident that it will work on whatever strain emerges and, given the large number of patients recruited in the UK, the distribution of the UK variant between the SNG001 and placebo group should be fairly even.

'Tis no wonder drug:

baked -> naked

Just tried googling her and all I get is pictures of a baked lady with big boobs and an inhaler!

I think we are actually lucky that the start of P3 trials was delayed and coincided with a rapid growth of the new variants, especially the UK one, because this means that the drug will be tested on the most interesting/dangerous variants and so, if successful, it will be a no-brainer for governments all around the world.

I don't think RM wants to follow the Pfizer/Moderna/AZN example in making the numbers look as good as possible on paper even if it means "massaging" them to fit the desired narrative. I'm convinced RM wants to know the actual effectiveness of SNG001: if it's just 50% across all the variants, so be it. It's better to tell the truth. (Have you heard that, Boris?)

Who's Pamela Anderson?

Why do people take pleasure in someone else's misfortune or misjudgment? The morons retweeting that guy's old tweet from 2011 should be ashamed. Only sad losers, e.g. Trump, would indulge in this sort of senseless activity. They remind me of the "told you so" brigade here on LSE.

Having said that, don't make the mistake the guy did back in 2011!

Parsley,

Yes, that's why we are waiting for P3 results. When they are published, or even earlier - when the FDA give their emergency approval - the UK government will have no excuse.

Have a great weekend!

Woodstock,

I totally agree. But even they won't be able to carry on ignoring a drug that has been shown to be effective at reducing the risk of death from Covid or long-term consequences of the infection.

Yes, Grant Shapps's pub landlord will get a multi-million contract to deliver inhalers to care homes but the most important thing is to get them there asap!

Oh, that's why Boris has been mirroring Trump's stupidity and blonde buffoon looks! I thought these were BoJo's original attributes but perhaps he is actually a svelte, handsome, dark-haired gentleman with more than two brain cells?

Naaah!

Looking at the Tories' approach to spending public money, the likely UK partner will be Grant Shapp's pub landlord...
