Seems there is a natural resistance at the 2950p mark and having difficulty breaking through and holding.
However when it does, hopefully it can set a new limit from there onwards.
I suppose 2950 is a round number where some investors will be taking profits and also slight hesitation from new investors since they feel they may have missed out on the initial rise.
We will have to be patient and see.

I noticed that the results are due out on 1st of April . Isn`t that The "Fool`s Day" ? !!!

Regarding dividend: From what I can see on the RNS, it seems there will be 3 dividend payments in year 2021 as follows:
26th March 2021: 125p
August 2021: 55p
December 2021: 55p

I was also very surprized that the price did not open at above 2800p first thing so I used the opportunity to top up a bit.
With todays announcement of the generous dividends, I estimate the SP should easily touch the 2920p mark this week.
Then perhaps drop a bit due to profit taking.
Best of luck all long term holders.

Padd1: At present there are a lot of us awaiting SNG to take a large step forward for mankind, but its detailed reading since so much has been written on it. But its an AIM share. My other favorite, (safe and steady) is: HL. (I have spent a lot of money with them is past year). And of course still holding here (PFC) for the end of SFO.
Choices, choices.. Best of luck Jaffjoon.

Just read on the link below about Tocilizumab . This is the product that BJ kept repeating at the update a few weeks ago
with Chris Witty. Now there seems to be conflicting results and a bit confusing for me.
https://trialsitenews.com/roches-tocilizumab-fails-to-meet-endpoints-in-phase-3-covacta-trial-does-cut-covid-19-death-rate-in-recovery-trial/
Extract from the "TrialSite" news dated 27 th as follows:

"The use of an immunosuppressive therapy known as tocilizumab, approved to treat the indication of rheumatoid arthritis, has been tested a number of times at this point involving numerous COVID-19 scenarios. Recently, the results of a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine reveal that this recent study investigating the use of the drug on patients with COVID-19-related pneumonia reveals that the monoclonal antibody failed to evidence significantly better clinical status or lower mortality in this particular patient cohort based on the findings in the COVACTA trial. Yet also released recently were results from the UK’s RECOVERY study, revealing that tocilizumab in that study offered a slight significantly statistical advantage to those COVID-19 patients experiencing low oxygen levels with significant inflammation."
Apologies if this has already been discussed here.

PMJH : Thanks for bringing this (& other) events to our attention and it was definately worth watching both as an investor and curious Covixer (someone who is in the Matrix during COVID).
The presenter (Strawberry blonde with a red front buttoned dress) .. Kate, was a bit amaturish and had to present Prof Holgate twice but I suppose that`s one of the drawbacks of being virtual and live. Think she needs to go across my knee for siix of the best (just to warm her up). I could swear when the camera went back to her, she had released another button !!.
My impression of the event: Everyone bar Prof. Holgate was introduced and brief discussion of their interest and specialities and once they seemed to have chatted for 28 minutes. Prof. Holgate was introduced at 17:28. My feeling was that the panel were mainly there to hear what he had to say (as others have indicated here). Yes, he talked about inhaled Inf and USA & UK home trials starting again at 17:38. I was impressed that Dr. Hans Kluge (WHO Europe Director) was in attendance and listening in with interest. The Prof. did talk about the easy use of the inhaler during home treatments using Vileo..!! (is this a internet platform ?) and visiting nurses to assist in home treatment.
Prof. Holgate indicated that we have to stop patients dying in hospitals and therefore need new treatments.
In addition Dr. H. Klug said: "The virus had a big appetite" and that "The Pandemic is not going to be beaten in hospitals"
I wonder if he was there to specifically listen to or open a line of communication with to Prof. Holgate ?
I did submit a question about an innovative "new treatment" incorporating a novel approach but it was not aired since I do not think anyone would have had a clue, plus the event time was limited to 1 hour only.
So as some have already said, There was nothing there that we did not already know. So no new unknowns that we knew and no unknowns that we did`nt know about.. I might just go and watch Donald Rumsfeld doing that tongue twister again on youtub.... or alternatively I could think a butt Kate a bit more....

I had to type it: www.ersnet.org/event and you have to register first.

Just a reminder to all here of the ERS live discussion at 17:00. (Sir S. Holgate)This info was supplied curtisy of PMJH a few days ago.
Registration is not that difficult, but please do it in time if you want to listen in.
Apologies if anyone already issued this reminder today. I will also re-post it say at 5pm for those who miss this message.
SGD27: Thanks for correcting the start time.

TipTop: Always appreciate people who find info and post it here for the educational benefit of others. So thank you all.

Markie: I was buying at around 210p a few months ago and bailed out before the Special divi since it really was "Capital return" and did not want the hassel of having to buy back with Divi payment etc etc.
I am now awaiting another opportunity to buy back in at around 210-219P since as long as there is all this news about vaccination and "other" treatments/ theraputics, I see the Sp gradually falling. IMHO
Good luck

and now... I`m the only live one left. All alone again.. Bliss !! or hell ?

After one year of this, I now know how Miissteeer . Anderson (Neo) felt when he realized he had been living in the Matrix all those years.
I call it living in the "Covix"

Fruitsnveg & Pmjh: Regarding the BTS presentation, I registered with BTS but to view the presentation you have to be a full member . For full membership one needs to be in the medical / science field (which I am not) and I think its about under £200 for a year. Then one can view previous events.
Any volunteers to join ? We can pool our resources together to cover the cost. I`m sure it will be worth every penny.
But if anyone else can gain access to the presentation, I / we would appreciate any info.

This up coming event was kindly highlighted by: PMJH a few days ago and I thought I would remind those interested.
You can listen in / watch it online but first need to register. Prof S. Holgate will be on the panel. Credits to PMJH

I think we are all looking forward to BJ`s plan on Monday. If there is any announcement on relaxing lockup rules this could effect TSCO price.
Any views / responses / thought`s on this ?
Thanks: Jaffjoon

owl 11: Thanks for posting the details of the Symposium which you had found .From what I understand it was "the BTS winter meeting" (British Thoriacic Society) and Prof. Tom Wilkinson from Southampton was making a presentation about Interferon B. There also seems to be one tomorrow. I have joined the BTS but obviously have to pay to attend the online Symposium and its now too late to attend. For full membership one needs to be in the medical / science field (which I am not) and I think its about under £200 for a year. Then one can view previous events.
Any volunteers to join ? We can pool our resources together to cover the cost. I`1m sure it will be worth every penny.
Tomorrows event may also contain further info.
Many thanks.

Corrction: "BTSWinter" meeting

Owl111: Did anyone listen in to the presentation by Prof. Tom Wilkinson on the "BTRWinter" event since he was supposed to be talking about our product ?

Anyone know when the Annual results are due for publication ?
Thanks. Jaffjoon
