Just bought my first tranche at 15.54. Large trade, probably accounts for those small trades holding back the sp until they filled the order. Blue finish? Only been watching for 9 months.

Moneylender, that may or may not be the case but below the 3% threshold then there is no need to update the market. So unless he does increase above that level, everything else would be speculation.

Is it not because of the overhang of the remaining shares of RH? My opinion is the sp will only move significantly on news not expected which is favourable or once the seller has cleared. The demand will eventually outweigh the supply. Been watching for many months and the only reason I am still on the sidelines is for that reason. Is this too simplistic or other are there other reasons?

My understanding is that NEX is not as regulated as the LSE. A European trading platform that is not as expensive for small or new companies to trade. Other than that I do not see any difference. I think ADVFN list both exchanges.

Bill, I think it is just a coincidence.

paul, directors look pretty 'loaded' to me. Substantial purchase a few months ago by Julie DeNunzio (director related 200k). I don't see your comparison with Maplins, HoF and PETS. Although a takeover for many pi's would be favourably, I don't invest in a company for that reason. It suggests a weakness in fundamentals and with PETS I don't see that. I am holding for a recovery too. Capitol growth and yield. Best of both worlds...

It will make up ground pretty quick. Shares being transferred to investors who will wait as the potential is converted. All trades seem 'pi sized' who may be releasing funds to invest elsewhere during this apparent 'dormant period' but a timely RNS could put an end to the frustration being felt.

Following statement from TCG released this morning.

"Summer 2018 has seen a return to popularity of destinations such as Turkey and Tunisia. However, it has also been marked by a prolonged period of hot weather across Europe. This meant many customers spent June and July enjoying the sunshine at home and put off booking their holidays abroad.

On my last visit to a Marston's Pub, the landlord spoke of extremely busy summer which coincided with the warm weather. (Even in the north of England :) What surprised him was the pub being busy during the world cup period, despite not showing the games. Year End trading update may contain some promising figures on wet sales and whether that extra footfall has converted into improved figures for the dry side of the business.

The company has already stated that it is going to conduct tests, why do they have to pay and issue a RNS about something the market is already aware of. It's results of the flow tests that re require a RNS. Clearly the more impatient investor is looking for that '10% gain' before moving on.

'their bb....

The NIH is part of the US Department of Health. Their purpose is to look at medical discoveries that may treat or prevent diseases. Phase 3 is not dependant on that result but a positive outcome further endorses FLU-5. My own view is that it will have a positive affect on the sp but like always it is about timing. Yesterday was a classic example of that, signing of a 12m contract, cash positive 2019 but many seized upon that to suit their own agenda.

moneyG, I don't think investors here are burying their head in the sand when it comes to Brexit. You never know, it may increase sales as home produce may be a cheaper alternative to EU imported drinks. I just think people are fed up with the topic on chat boards. I am also an investor in LLOY but rarely post on their because it is a complete waste of time. It's pointless reading it because you have to scroll through post after post on immigration, public sector cuts, Teresa May and Jeremy Corbyn.

PMatlock 20th June on HVO ..'Genuine rerate on. Good company. Good product. Cash in bank. Everyone knows it's a buyout target or drug will be sold' also 'This will fly past a quid' 19th June 'This is not a pump and dump. Price will keep rising over 2 quid' On the same day you posted on the KOOV bb 'Make 100pc this afternoon in hvivo. They have universal flu jab that works. Will be sold for 100m easily'
Oddly enough not many posts on VRS. Plenty on UKOG though. Made 25k in a day there too?
Fantasist! Congratulations on your 85K profit.

WorldQuant and Old Mutual. Disclosed positions have now fallen below 3% for the rest.

Pity you wasn't adding at 13p less than 12 months ago and less than 60p 3 months ago. :)

paul, you need to email Al Murray with that observation. Of course, they only sell a fruit based drink for the ladies. Not forgetting a barrel or two of Bombardier and a DE14 (which is not a rocket that runs out of fuel and falls to ground exploding on impact)

Wideyed, someone is hoovering up the shares and imo it's not pi's. Happy to take shares off you but struggle to buy in any quantity. Typical trend at the moment. I guess next year when they report a profit and their pipeline has progressed and new contracts are converted then the institutions may be happy for investors to take shares from them. Just guessing the MC wont be 50m though.

Bill, likewise. Lots of news to come. Each to their own and good luck to those deciding to move on. More than happy to keep my investment here. Patience has always brought me my biggest rewards.

When I bought at 124 it seemed pretty pointless continuing the short which was reinforced with the Director related buy. I think when investors are convinced they are closing then there will be an increase in demand from investors waiting on the sidelines. The shares being returned will also boost the sp.

MoneyG, like I posted, not wishing to get drawn into a Brexit debate. Retailers were struggling long before 2016 due to the increase in online shopping. I live for most of the year in Northern France and voted to remain. However, and this is not my view, quite a few of my French friends and neighbours see the EU in a different light since the vote. Not all positive.
If we have nothing to sell then we will have to train our children and young adults by way of apprenticeships and give them the skills to manufacture goods. Many years ago I had a business in the UK which required a team of plasterers. I had 4 apprentices that were released once a week for college work. However, the college could not provide a lecturer. Due to the shortages of skilled trade they were earning more money on site than in a classroom. It became more economical to employ from outside of the UK. We have become too dependant on Europe for our goods and services.
When I look at my local supermarket all the fresh produce is locally sourced. If I need trades they are all local French businesses trained in the 'old fashion traditional way'. Local wine is given the prime promotional place within the store together with the regional cheese.
Your quite right to point out failing businesses in the UK, maybe we need a different approach. I would blame business rates as the main reason together with lease costs. Many CEO's are using Brexit for poor performance when in reality it is bad business decisions. The press in the UK has polarised views so I know my response is pointless and will refrain from posting on this bb topics that are not relevant to MARS.
