Ryan Mee, CEO of Fulcrum Metals, reviews FY23 and progress on the Gold Tailings Hub in Canada. Watch the video here.
Beryl, big buys often do happen after hours, but the timestamps aren't in order today, so what appears to be sells on those may well be buys. Yesterday and the day before the timestamps were chronological so we could see the buys in the millions were definitely buys! Confusing isn't it! :-)))
LSE's algorithms predict whether a trade is a buy or sell judging on the previous price, so are often completely wrong. It's important to see them in time-order to judge. As the SP now appears to be up @950, I think they're likely to be buys, which would fit in with the pattern of the last couple of days of very big buys.
Charles, just spotted your question. I actually only hold one other Tech share which is an AIM company called Insig AI. It's a punt as very early doors, but chose to take up a position because:
a) They develop AI Software as a Service for Asset/Investment Managers which will allow them to crunch ESG data accurately. This is a perfect use for machine-learning AI and has the potential to be highly lucrative.
b) The renowned All-star Investor/Investment Manager Richard Bernstein is heavily involved and invested.
I previously held Keywords Studios which I sold at a good profit, but too early. I'm hoping to get back in there if it falls under 2800.
Overall though to diversify your portfolio you might not want to load up on more tech given the current market background. Might be better to look for less volatile holdings in a defensive sector like Healthcare/Utilities.
I agree Charles, some profits were taken earlier by agreement, so in their shoes I would keep tight hold. We're still very cheap compared to our nearest competitors.
All the same I'll be topping up if if the window is open. :-)
Matt, yep, this Government have zero interest in climate change, the majority of those people are completely removed from reality. It was clearly a huge PR exercise in greenwashing.
Still good that DARK are getting promoted further up the ladder though.
Hi Seaking, always enjoy your posts, and couldn't agree more, we've got a good helpful community here. I avoid posting on the boards of many of my holdings due to the noise of the endless derampers. I do give them a little poke for amusement purposes occasionally though, it's a good stress buster. :-D
You're welcome Beryl. I hold shares in Scancell who are also producing a Covid vaccine - done a lot of research in the area. We're lucky to have easy access to vaccines here, but globally that's not the case. Plus the current vaccines lose efficiency over 1-2 years, so Valneva has a good chance to be profitable. :-)
It's in some of the press here and Stateside too. Good spot Marna! https://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/queen-windsor-castle-bill-gates-global-investment-summit-b961385.html?itm_source=Internal&itm_channel=section_banner&itm_campaign=breaking-news-ticker&itm_content=2
Beryl, Valneva's vaccine has passed the important Phase 3 trials, so it's proved safe and efficient enough at creating a decent immune response to Covid. They now need to analyse the trial data and write up their findings in order to present it to the various governing medical authorities. Once accepted they can move on to the next stage, ie manufacturing or signing commercial deals.
Hope that helps.
Aveva's never been on my radar tbh, but apparently 27% exposure to Evergrande: https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/960794/evergrande-crisis-which-uk-companies-and-commodities-have-most-exposure-to-china-960794.html I'd be wary or maybe wait for what could be an inevitable dip.
Decent - and recent! - article in Dark Reading from Darktrace Director of Cyber Intelligence & Analytics, Justin Fier:

Good to see PR and sales campaign continues to increase, looks like the website has been greatly updated too. No-one at DARK are taking things for granted. I know I've said it before but GREAT management!
Hi Marna, that's great advice off PussyG. Good to hear you averaged down a bit, a sensible move. :-)
Many of us have lost money to begin with, but you can make it back if you're sensible. Shares rarely go up in a straight line, as the old saying goes! We can learn a lot from our mistakes. Always do your research before buying and until you're confident, I'd advise you stay away from smallcap AIM shares which tend to be risky and volatile. Be sure to diversify your portfolio too across sectors/holdings.
If you haven't already, work out your SP average (including costs) because it'll be easier to decide your strategy from there and calculate how much the SP needs to gain (or lose) before you sell. Costs can really eat into profit.
I'd seriously consider just holding and not even attempt to trade when you're early on in your investment journey. It's like trying to run when you're only just learning to walk! Same goes for a lot of the companies on the AIM market.
PussyG made a really important point about rampers and derampers too, unfortunately most discussion boards are plagued by them. Good luck and if you're confused about anything just ask. :-)
Hi Marna, Hope you managed to average down? If you're going to play a bit, I'd advise you have a strategy, do the maths and set yourself limits. I find it helpful to write notes as it's all too easy to get carried away in the moment. :-)
