Fair enough, lazarus. tbh, i have been lth here in the good old days so still have it on a watchlist but, having traded some on the recent drop now, like you, waiting on the news to see whether to move on, jump on for a rise or wait for a drop. but, thankfully, i've quit with the loyalty thing and staking my future on any particular share as it's too much like pining for an ex when the sp falls, then falls again, then falls some more. and 50% in a month is just too painful...

All true... but it is what it is... might as well complain about why it rains when we don't want to or religion. it isn't going to change based on venting on here...

...and are often just sheer bloody mindedness about how very, very long this process of proving up assets is taking, with each delay costing investors who have staked a lot of belief in the share!

Doesn't really matter why. you have to work with what you've got... so just look at the trades and gauge it.

What i really dislike is this notion that anyone who trades is, somehow, evil and 'spivvy' while the good guys are folk who will sit on a share as it dips, as if there's some moral integrity with watching your investment shrink!

the only issue, surely, is making money? if i was clever enough to do it, if i was a major holder, i'd be shorting my own stock so i'm evens on the drop and then finish the short at what might be the bottom. but, atm, can anyone really say this might not be 10p, with a placing or 12p before buys?

Every day folk post about TAO and the subnets and how everything is going up... but the sp isn't and hasn't been over 1p for a while.

just askin' for the ill-informed (that'll be me!)... what does it take for the sp to stay over 1p permanently?

answers on a postcard to...

That said, i'm assuming that the ii's have already made their minds up and this board change is too late in the day to affect opinions, unless it was telegraphed ahead of rns.

I didn't write the yahoo piece! i just found it to add the the nasdaq comments... not as if yahoo are esp. known for trolling. sometimes facts are facts!

as for 52... as close to 52 as it is to today's 63 so no need to get so defensive. facts are facts. but if you want to put a certain spin on it, that's fine.

... would seem to have all but gone.

You don't get churn without a rise... unless it's to dump the shares and keep warrants. who'd buy to sell lower?

Not really any kind of confirmation to say 'suggests' and 'unlikely'. the only word you're really looking for 'isn't' or 'definitely isn't'.

until that's done, it's questionable.

Or is it just 'light the blue touch paper and stand well back'?

Massive, you've pretty much stated why lthers with big stakes can't do anything but ramp the share. trouble is your ramping that 'history repeats' isn't a fact. the rise will depend on news... and news that is in their own gift, rather than waiting on a third party to gift them the rise is what's needed.

GST, atm, is absent of any company good news and the BoD aren't exactly flying the flag for themselves.

so, what is there to ramp, exactly?

if you want a good example of what is needed, here's something (not in, just found them through links)... look at this news and then the sp today:

That's true, Massive. i could always invest in ALRT... oh, no, wait... hold on...

Not really, Massive. i return to see if your tune changes... amusingly, it doesn't.

but i don't want to get into another personal spat so will keep it to the facts about GST (rather than the 'oooh, the trolls will be sorry when...')

gla.

Folk here talk about insurance payments to recover costs but how long wil that take? and will the company need to find the funds to restart the trials before the insurance claim comes in?

No... it's not trolling. i'm just saying 'don't put all your eggs in the one basket'. i gave up on GST at 0.75... i could buy back now with 15% more shares... but there ARE other shares out there... and it's painful to see rampers keep encouraging others to keep averaging down when there are daily opps in the market.

make you money somewhere else in a week and then come back in, with your profits, and get more shares for your money, if that's what you want.

if the BoD can't be bothered to give information, no idea why other holders who keeping investing in another million (but never produce a TR1!) are the arbiter for guidance?

take some time off this bb and just look around... big investing world out there1

Awful lot of macho 'i'll prove them wrong by buying more' instead of rational thinking.

it's absolute madness to only invest in the one share... goes against every single bit of advice about spreading the risk.

too many folk have a 'shi* or bust' belief in shares... except never believe that 'bust' is even a remote possibility!

take your head out of this bb and look around lse... and see the same mentality in all the shares, with emotionally tied investors all believing that their share is going to be life changing... all too often in the wrong way.

not saying this'll go bust... not at all... just amazing how few times i see the posters on other bbs...

I can see it dropping first.... six months? depends on whether any of the applications are successful. if they're not forthcoming soon, then will need funds to expand... but, honestly, i take the temperature daily.

it'll either do well or go bust. i can't sit around with my money in until i can see security guaranteed.

but i'll keep watching... if it looks like it's going to do an ECOB in a month then i'll dive in. otherwise.... i'll keep looking for the next ECOB!
