The latest Investing Matters Podcast episode featuring financial educator and author Jared Dillian has been released. Listen here.
obone - it is better to think of the very small trades as brokers tidying up their books, rather than as some mysterious signal to the, or from the, illuminati, that way lies madness.
lordfont, I suspect that a nascent broadcasting company never has enough cameras, or enough people to drive them, let alone the events at which to use them.
Launching 3 studios, one may assume to run concurrently, must be indicative of their capability.
The only question you really need to ask is, have they got enough money.
Money buys, cameras, people and events.
You have to remember that much of the quoted £1.8M revenue from the previous year was in fact contributions from Facebook for technical work. There is an RNS on this subject that you can find, although it doesn't give the actual amount paid by FB if you look at the timeline and consider what was actually available via the app then the only realistic conclusion that you can draw is that almost all of the £1.8M came from FB.
To my knowledge (always happy to be corrected) the revenue figures in this years numbers will only include actual sales revenue, such as it might be.
If you look at the YouTube channel for Melody VR then you will see that for all the videos there that they have racked up around a million views in total, with one or two at 200,000 views.
If you look at their channel on YouTube which gives tasters for videos playing on their "App", you will see that two acts "Tyga" and "Post Malone" have racked up nearly 1 million views each.
So, Melody's output is being looked at.
Just seen a TV advert on ITV during Good Morning Britain by Currys/PC World for PC gaming equipment.
At the end of the advert they specifically plug the Oculus Quest.
This the first time I have seen VR equipment advertised on main stream TV
Thanks for the charts ORLM
They just show that doing something generates interest and growth
This is first I have seen (other than speculation about VR glasses) of the next iteration of the Quest headset

Interesting read on vaccines by the american CDC here
https://www.cdc.gov/flu/vaccines-work/vaccineeffect.htm
They dont work all the time, far from it, and are not a silver bullet.
This paragraph caught my eye:
This fits with findings on immune response to vaccination that suggest repeated influenza vaccination can weaken immune response to vaccination and especially to the H3N2 vaccine component. However, repeated annual vaccination also can be beneficial during some seasons, since sometimes people retain and carry over immune protection from one season to the next. During some seasons, people who missed getting vaccinated still had residual protection against influenza illness.
Seems to me that Petebo is on fire thus morning !
One word of caution concerning the undoubted class leading quality of what MVR does.
Its an old debate, but history is littered with "the best" falling by the wayside to be overtaken by something that, although of lower quality, is commercialised more effectively. As my first boss would say, the best mousetrap doesn't always catch the mouse.

Lordfont - if you would allow me to pontificate for a moment
I don't think the 'big boys' are interested in that way with this one yet
1. Clearly, the institutions that are interested have purchased, they now hold a large proportion of the shares and are just sitting and waiting, because they can.
2. There is no steady influx of new PI's buying into the share because there is little substantial news to create such interest - no accounts (good or bad), no big outdoor live gigs and low name recognition amongst potential UK PI's for the stars they have put on (because they are targetting the USA in all respects)
3. MVR is clearly a slow burner which will surprise everyone with news out of left field, so some will sell to chase faster money elsewhere, to be replaced by some who hope to have their money in place for the big news announcement
4. There are a number of PI's who are significantly underwater on this, but retain belief that it will come good, so they don't trade, they just sit and wait and do a bit of ramping on these boards when they have the energy. I say this because, to my mind, its not really been a share to use to trade back into profit.
Ultimately, I believe that this share is really only being traded by a small number of PI's thinking to make a few quid out of each other whilst at the same time hoping to be in position when the golden RNS drops
To be fair the company has never cared about the group holdings website
Numerous posters on here have highlighted issues, and probably like me, have contacted to company to get them to correct/update.
Its nothing new and it doesn't matter one ioata in terms of the public presentation of MelodyVR
Although it does say a bit about the BOD.
For interest

This share isn't about shorters, we all know where it is going.
This share is about some long term holders who are simply waiting from their 15p buy in, and a load of day traders who hope they make the right decision (ie, to be in or out) at the end of each day.
Looking at all the delayed trades going through (mine still not showing yet) I am thinking that this was supposed to drop like a stone on opening, but "someone" got caught yesterday and it is being walked up so that they can get out
What does it mean when your trade does not appear in the list ?
Sold through HL and the trades usually appear instantly - strange goings on
Block16legend - you must be a slow at typing !!!
90p around the corner
Merchantbanker - tonight MH will take 2 sensible questions from the general public and 10 questions about DC from the media
It will all be over in 20 minutes, with a polite "thank you"
I have L2 on ADVFN, but it doesn't really help with this share as it just shows half a dozen market maker positions on either side.
Better and easier to watch the live trades, you soon get a feel for when the market is turning, but that doesn't mean you get the sense to act upon what you are seeing !
No, I'm wrong HL just offered me 86p for 1000
