Proposed Directors of Tirupati Graphite explain why they have requisitioned an GM. Watch the video here.
I agree OW and I am surprised more people didn’t take advantage of the heads up to Company followers that all was well with the LFD and fill your boots before the official announcement. I certainly did !
The key message from Chris Whitty today is that the virus will be with us for a long time and it will be a long haul. Something to remember when the derampers come along and tell us the virus is on its way out together with any testing that goes with it
Showing the video on the company web site in this way is another very subtle way of allowing existing shareholders who follow the company the heads up before the herd arrive once the RNS is announced. I’ve certainly taken advantage of it. Very few companies look after their shareholders in the way that Alastair does
The timing of any announcement is likely to be dependent on when Cytiva have successfully completed the prototype and to that extent out of Alastair’s hands?
My 99 year old mother caught coronavirus whilst in hospital last week along with others in the ward. Most likely explanation is from one of the medical staff who I believe are only tested if they show symptoms. Fortunately my mother is asymptotic and at the moment is OK but a regular BAMS test for all hospital staff is one possible solution to this
AGM today and GM on Wednesday but nothing new can be divulged here unless preceded by an RNS. Always concerned about over hyping possibility of a 7 am RNS because we know what happens at 8 when it doesn’t happen. News will come in the very near future. Patience still required
Yes Mapp TW is a nasty piece of work whose cronies can influence the price so why do his job for him by selling. Prefer to stick to my principles than sink to his level
I am not normally a vindictive person but to all those people who have been spreading false rumours and wallowing in other people’s misfortunes over the last few weeks - succoured as we say in Yorkshire
Therapy
Plenty of the usual suspects revelling in other people’s misery. Some people taking profits which is fair enough, others had stop losses taken out, and some others panic selling. An obvious shorting campaign going on with TW and his cronies no doubt involved. Nothing has changed for me and I have been adding at these prices. Time will tell who was right at the end of the day. Sir Al retains my full confidence
He also said on Wednesday that timing was out of AVCT hands.
Do all these de rampers act together on a Sunday afternoon having been told to by TW or is it a collective stupidity that affects them all at the same time.
Another interesting part of the Q and A which hasn’t been commented on is that Alastair himself Says that he has worked more productively since the lockdown as he has spent less time travelling. Once we get back to some kind of normality our working practices will change as temporary adjustments become permanent many of which will benefit us as individuals as well as the environment. Unfortunately getting back to some kind of full employment may take longer.
He did answer the takeover question. He said his intention was to grow the company
The expectation of a block busting RNS prior to last Wednesday’s presentations provided an ideal opportunity for a big sell off when it didn’t happen. There is a similar danger before the Cytiva presentation this Wednesday. AS suggested a LFD prototype by the end of the month making a similar announcement before Wednesday unlikely. Beware of over enthusiastic traders hyping the possibility up to engineer an artificial SP increase which they will sell into if it doesn’t happen
Can’t buy on HL either
He made it very clear that the timing of when the tests come to market are out of AVTC s hands an important point to the many posters constantly moaning about delays. For it to be best on the market it has to be right and that takes time.
Once the test has been signed off Medusa’s prep is such that no delay getting the product to market
Potential revenue from the Covid tests says Alastair
LFD prototype to be ready by the end of June with first revenues 4 to 6 weeks later which has led to the rainbow chasers to temporarily look elsewhere. Lab test revenue should b earlier than this
