The only conspiracy here is why someone who spends all their waking hours trying to drive the price of a stock down, which we are all invested in suddenly sells 2 tranches for what £5k profit and then continues to bash it, even though not fully disinvested.

Any conspiracy theoriest would ask what his real motivation was……

Couldn’t write it.

Makes a change from manipulating it downwards, amazing you failed yet you get to profit from the price rising. Absolute madeness and I don’t believe a cent of it.

But to play the game, “well done”, why don’t you fully cash in and let the adults get back to a reasoned discussion.

Absolute rubbish, weren’t the words you used “time to get out”….:.

I can’t believe I have just wasted a minute of my life responding to this drivel. You don’t own any shares in a company which you constantly bash and talk down.

Your only interest is to create uncertainty, shake the tree and try and create selling volume.

All you are achieving is the opposite of what you are trying to do, it’s laughable now.

The good news is the squeeze hasn’t even started. This is simply an improvement in sentiment across the sector for reasons already highlighted by others . This is bringing in more buyers, current holders adding positions and less investors feeling the urge to sell.

When they finally realise the game is up, or even better when the lenders of the shares start calling them in, it will get really interesting.

Egypt 🤣🤣🤣 I heard on the grapevine that Vanuatu have also cut their hydrogen forecast 😏

Straws clutching at.

Funny how selective use of figures can be used to spread one’s own narrative.

According to Yahoo Finance, the view across 12 analysts,

1 Strong Buy, 6 buy, 4 hold and only 1 SELL with an average target price of 96.5p…..

There’s the rest of the picture you failed to report.

Notice: ITM do NOT need to corner the whole market to be a success

The only ones priming this stock for manipulation are those incessant poster(s) who are tasked with "shaking the tree", and trying to scare genuine investors to sell their positions.

They know they have to get their hands on 17.9 million shares, and unless they create uncertainty amongst a large group of holders they will never get their volume. Currently daily volume is at around the levels it was at when the stock price was 26p, and how they wish that they could have got out from 26p upwards, but buying 17.9 million, or 22 million if you include Qube would have sent the share price through the roof. There is a large percentage of this company who will NOT SELL their shares, and they know it. The only way they can get the shares is to spread fear, try and get in the heads of the less "invested" investors, but more and more are doing their research, understanding that ITM do not need to conquer the market to be successful and knowing that there is more than enough cash in the bank, coupled with industry leading tech that there will be a tipping point.

All we need to do is hold, buy the dips and at some point the 22 million shares become irrelevant, because the cash flow will determine the trajectory of the stock.

Why this use of manipulation through fear is allowed who knows, but the message from the FCA under the posting box is very clear:

"Posting inside information that is not public knowledge, or information that is false or misleading, may constitute market abuse. This could lead to an unlimited fine and up to seven years in prison. If you have any information, concerns or queries about market abuse click here."

Got my name in the draw. Although I do agree with the sentiment of it being for genuine holders, I would pay to see the look on spice boys face when it dawns on him that this company is going places and they need to buy back 17.9 million shares.

So what is your intention? The only one to have never stated what interest they have in this stock, but relentless in trying to cause fear….

Remember what you said when it was circa 26p?

20p incoming was your line which you were pushing hard…. Why did you want 20p?

Over and out

This has been going on for months now, he works for Helikon and has tried to spread false information and create fear, every time he gets too close to being outed his employer gives him a few days leave, then he reappears spouting the same rubbish.

I remember some months ago reminding him of fca regs and he went quiet for a week.

They know the rules and will sail as close to the wind as they can, they have a lot riding on this stock.

The Tuna is here because he has an agenda, that agenda was clear when the share price was falling, and that was to advise / cajole / scare investors into selling their shares in ITM at ridiculous prices, every time it fell to a new low predicting a further fall of 10p until he / she even suggested 20p as the next fall target. Volume was so low ( less than 1.5m most days ) that this strategy wasn't allowing enough volume for his paymasters to buy back any shares without seeing the share price rise back towards a fair value of cash + assets + IP etc.

Now he / she is a master of short exit strategies and this nonsense about covering with long positions only gives them a net neutral position. Holding 1 share long and 1 share short results in zero gain on either way movement of the stock price. Helikon are in a hole, which they couldn't extract themselves from when volume was 1.5m per day, for sure they have collected shares on the way up but they have not covered 17.9 million shares yet, or they would close. Remember they are paying rent for the 17.9 million shares held, which is being paid from un banked profits from their original short.

The big question for me is........ How many do they still need to buy before they can close the whole short???

I have just checked on Hargreaves Lansdown where I hold a significant position and their site confirms

"We maintain detailed records of all your investments and assets for which you will at all times remain the beneficial owner. We do not lend stock held in our HL or PMS service." - Taken directly from HL website.

It is relevant as there are 23,000,000 ( or a little less if Qube have reduced ) more shares in circulation than are available as each shorted share has been in effect sold twice , so 23,000,000 need to be paid back to their owners .

I did wonder NewKOTB but I thought I would give them the benefit of the doubt for now. It usually becomes obvious pretty quick if they are genuine or not.

Das, good question and although I can't give you a definite answer, I can share my view which I think is fairly common on this topic.

In a perfect world for the shorts ( one that I strongly feel they have been trying to create) there would have been big selling volume as the share price dropped, which would have allowed them to scoop all the shares back up, close out and realise their profits.

During those days when the share price was falling there was only 1,300,000 ( give or take) being traded daily so covering 23,000,000 would have naturally caused the price to rise significantly, so ( IMHO) they sat on their hands hoping that the price would drop enough to cause volume to go through the roof with panic selling. This didn't happen.

Whether they have been buying on the way back up, ready to cover the shorts only they know, as they don't have to report until they close their short position.

There are conflicting opinions on this, but what I do know is that there has been a significant uplift in volume and interest which is evident by the number of new contributions here, as well as the feeling that there is now a lot of institutional money buying in, so let's see how it plays out.

Again, this is my opinion, not fact like some ( well 1 in particular) like to state here.

Spicy you are getting boring banging that old drum. I know you work for Helikon, but making it so obvious stating what they are doing is a little naive as you know the rules.

Also you understand that playing both sides is a zero sum game don't you? What they are gaining on the long position they are losing on the short position "unless" they are trading the long position and taking profits, but you will know that better than me.

They key they held to the ignition they should have turned in the 20's but we both know there was no volume to allow them to do it, even though you tried your best to scare shareholders you could only get 1.5m a day turnover.

Anyway, I am not arguing the point with you, your intention is clear and I have made my intention clear so we will never agree.

Sorry your prediction of 20p some weeks ago never came to fruition...... Not really.....As much as you try to take the high road and play the victim it doesn't wash with me.

Over and out 👊

Digitalis it's all very well them making bucket loads of cash " if " they did trade last week but the best this will do is offset the bucket loads of cash they are losing on the rise of their 23,000,000 debt which must be paid back. Between the 2 they have lost £230,000 for every 1p rise in the share price since it was in the 20's . That's a lot of £230k's to have covered .

I do agree though that they are becoming less and less relevant every day that passes and interest comes from all angles, many of which are not just in for a short term profit.

I'll take as a "no, sorry I am not capable of giving a thought out and researched answer" then, thanks for confirming my suspicion.

I can't believe I am going to waste 2 minutes of my life answering this drivel but.......

KPA would you care to expand and give us a thought out and researched argument to back up your comment ?

Something other than you are going to gain financially from the stock falling so will do anything you can to bash it would be appreciated.
