Hi Seaking1
Welcome back.
I am with you on this and am looking for an entry point also around £9 for my trading pot.
Been buying PM search (as opposed to miners) companies in the hope of another GGP but that has a much bigger risk/reward relationship than OXB, who surely must get another contract for the vaccine production. As we have said many times on here though a lot depends on the margin associated with that production as to whether OXB will be in profit. I am looking to see when the interim financials are due but haven't found out yet. Finals not until May I think.

Mufata is right but you have to tell them. They can't keep track of who owns and sells every share in the country.

Also just to add to the confusion I do not believe ISAs are exempt from IHT i.e. they are counted as part of your estate whether the companies are in AIM or not but as I said I am not a tax planner or FA so please double check. JohnZ was clearer on how HMRC treats AIM companies than I was but for what it's worth I agree with his interpretation but this is not advice as I have no professional expertise in this area, merely trying to manage my own portfolios and overall estate.

Guys
I am not a financial adviser and so please double check this as it should not be taken as gospel or advice but in answer to the earlier question I believe losses can be carried forward indefinitely though you obviously have to prove them and to The Aviator I don't think that is the case. Not all AIM shares are deemed in the special category by HMRC as it usually will not tell you which until you sell them i.e. as far as I know there is not a definitive list. BUT, as I said, I have no special tax training and as someone else said earlier this is very complicated area so if the sums are reasonably substantial pay for accurate advice from a professional. Dont guess and hope for the best.

3 years ago today is was at £5.66 so that is a 67% increase.
A lot of us in this bb are LTH - nearly 18 years in my case - so we wont be giving up on it yet but the question of margin on the vaccine is a genuine one and I think we should be told. I assume that as AZ isn't making anything then OXB's margin must be slim to nothing as well but I have no information to support or knock down that assumption. In any case it will help cashflow and it did cause the acceleration of the manufacturing facilities but until we see interims or even the final report we won't know the overall impact on the finances. I also agree that the PR is awful and have remarked on it on this bb a few times myself.
It is reaching the point where I might buy more for a trading wodge but I am keeping my core holding

That is what we don't know i.e. what the margin, if anything is.
This drop still seems strange to me as AZ up quite a bit this morning..
Falling knife or buying opportunity?

If I had to guess it might be the worries that the AZ vaccine might not work as well as the Pfizer one on the new UK strain or at all on the even newer S African one.
Pfizer has said its will work. As far as I can see AZ has not said that yet.
General nervousness in the market today as well. I am a sea of red.

Yes indeed. It never inspires confidence. Hard to see why this has dropped so much from its high. Profit taking I suppose just like I did. Still have my core though.

Also meant to say that I might sell to crystallise the gain in this FY as I have a sneaking suspicion that Sunak will lower the CGT exempt threshold in his forthcoming budget. Even at 20% that is the equivalent of a 20% rise on today's sp.

Good luck SK1.
Like Shatter I am hanging in there, probably more in hope than expectation now and also I don't have an obvious candidate for the realised funds if I did sell. I am maxed out on small bios and Australian miners and dont really fancy much else at the moment.
Come back and see us from time to time
Cheers

Morning guys
I agree long term we must be a t/o target but a clearer picture of where OXB sits would be helpful.
Glad I didn't add on the drop as have enough in here to remain patient - still.
HNY to all us LTH

The Guardian has printed a nice story about an Indian company in Wrexham that is putting the vaccine into the vials. No mention of OXB. Perhaps if OXB had a publicity person s/he could try to place a story also.
Missed opportunity I think

Reaching the point where I might buy back in. Anything around £10 has got to be good value imhoo especially if you are prepared to wait.

Halifax don't allow it either.
I wanted to transfer shares from my ordinary trading account into my ISA with them and I have to sell then buy rather than transfer in specie. However they will do it instantly on the phone with just one fee but of course you sell at the sell price and buy at the buy price so they make on the spread.

That is the question I have been asking for months since the announcement and although I have searched everything I can find I haven't come across an answer. I guess we will have to wait until the next set of results. The finals aren't due until May but we should get interims before then

Morning guys
Saw the early rise on the approval news; went off to do some things and have come back to this. Classic btrstn behaviour; very frustrating.
We now need to see where the bottom is as this will surely gain over time as the vaccine is distributed and more is needed.

It was my trading pot bought at £8.70. I dithered on my core (bought £5.11) when it was over £10.60 but kept my finger off the sell button. Let's hope it surges again when the approval is announced.
Seaking posted that he/she thinks it will be bought which given its potential and the low memcap of about £870m certainly seems possible. Small change to a big pharma. £15 a share would be nice.
I haven't seen any hints or rumours that they are in discussions but as they are working with AZ all sorts could be happening behind the scenes that doesn't need RNSing yet. Exciting times after all these years.

but never recognised in his own land
Sorry
