Member Info for LochinvarLass

Thank you for this - I have bookmarked it to read in the morning.

I've been told several times that the prices here are delayed 15 minutes.

The platform I'm on generally has a lower bid price to here at all times.

Lloyds is registered in Scotland....

I'm still working up my holding to that level - it will be awhile.

At some point I would expect them to pay some dividends too... though that may be a few years away.

If that is your pension plan, make sure you put them in an ISA so that both the dividends and the capital raise are non-taxable.

In - just clarifying that Crackin's top is 17p.. not 19p. So his messages are consistent to me.

I'm curious though as to what you use to keep track of all the conversations. Surely you don't waste all your time trawling back through the feed.

I would also like to add that people are entitled to change their minds, unless the Government has outlawed that this morning.

Frankly until there is something newsworthy, I'd rather not have a constant razzmatazz of CEO statements to pump the price. Results from the Covidity trial will be available in a few months, and then we will see what the worldwide demand is to take it further.

The news about a deal for either Moditope® or AvidiMab™ will be a major boost. One of these could land at any time..

Had I been brave enough to sell at the top, I would be buying back the 20% gain with more shares. How many is too many shares for me - not sure I can answer that. At present, it will take a few years to get them all into my ISA.

Dido Harding and others will be answering questions on Covid19 Track & Trace app, etc. at the Science and Technology Committee today

My view is that they may be more inclined to buy given they can now get 15% more bang for their buck than they could two days ago.

I'm sure plenty of smaller funds, IRA accounts which can pick stocks will be fast followers of Redmile's investment strategy without having to stump up the $5M buy in or pay their management fees. . . .

I'll bite. What does the chart say now for LLOY?

Crumbs thanks for that - I think everyone is surprised by the rise with no news and no Very Large Trades.

As others have pointed out, I'm "clueless", but 2 days of extended trading times and an auction in the middle of the day leads me to believe that there was a Very Large Trade in the offing which is now put on hold.

WTP, thanks for this. This is in line with the business case Bingham mentioned in the Parliament "debate".

If I remember correctly, CH in the Proactive Investor August presentation said their trial would look at testing 4 different cancers in one of their trials.

The pandemic has also provided the opportunity to introduce more agile processes and plus "end user" technology which will also be taken forward to reduce timelines and overall costs.

I use IG as well and I have found that I have to push their corporate actions department. I lost out on major amounts of shares in a OO last month. I got about 21% whereas other holders of a similar size on other platforms got 50-60% of the shares they requested.

If you ever have an issue on IG, call the helpdesk, first, last and inbetween.

I'm looking for another platform as well. Barclays came out on top on the corporate actions front, with HL not far behind.

However if you are an active trader, besides the cost per trade, you need to check the spreads - and again IG tend to price sells conservatively in my view.

C7, thanks - A bulletin board bully isn't going to affect my investment decisions.

The reason I asked about the auction was because it was outside the normal time bands, even allowing for any 15 minute delays. I did check through the article and I've trawled through the trades I can see here. There are any significant ones which stand out.

My broker tends to have very conservative views of Scancell's selling price which is why I was surprised it was higher first thing this morning. I think they tend to have lower selling prices than elsewhere in the market. It's one of the criteria I have to move my holdings.

Still waiting for the answer outside the allotted time bands for an auction during the day.

OMG - don't any of the Know It Alls know that answer?

What does that mean in the middle of the trading day?

We have had two evenings of time extensions...

If it goes to 15p I shall buy more. LOL

WTP, I agree. If you look at Redmile entry criteria for their investors, it starts at $5Million I believe. So far easier to find out where they have placed their bets and do the same. . . The fact that we were here before becoming an investment means that more people who would never have heard of Scancell will place a punt or two.

Good advice Crackin, though I'm looking at adding at least a zero on the back of that target. Time will fly by.

I saw Stobart are also into renewable energy as plastered all over one of their lorries which had a bit of a tussle on the A82 yesterday - Kudos to their driver for having the sense to back up so the oncoming lorry could pass.
