FDR was famous for his fireside chats.......every week on the radio
Finest US President ever IMO

FDR was the only president elected to the office four times.
piloted the United States through the Great Depression and World War II
In August 1921, while Roosevelt was on vacation at Campobello Island, New Brunswick, Canada, his life was transformed when he was stricken with poliomyelitis. He suffered intensely, and for some time he was almost completely paralyzed. His mother urged him to retire to the family estate at Hyde Park, but his wife and Howe believed it essential that he remain active in politics. For his part, Roosevelt never abandoned hope that he would regain the use of his legs.
Died: April 12, 1945 (aged 63)...one month before D-DAY

IF he gets back into power he will never ever stand down, until he drops dead.

'The idea is that micro-reactors could be built and assembled in factories with modules to order and then shipped in a standard container to Eielson for final installation. If successful, the pilot plant could lead to micro-reactors being used on other military bases, and potentially by remote civilian communities, mining sites, and oil fields, as well as for water desalination and hydrogen production.'

We will have to endure further dilution with more funding for WK to fully deliver IMO

After leaving the European Union, the U.K. is emerging from the pandemic without enough workers and facing a winter tougher than any since the 1970s.

My opinion - unfortunately for holders, this update does seem to put a question mark over the whole growth story here. Conditions may still be difficult, but they’re surely improving? Last time I was in London ( a couple of weeks ago), it seemed busy, with plenty of people back in their offices & commuting again.

Hefty continuing EBITDA losses could put the cash resources under pressure, although it reports today that it has £3.25m cash at 20 Oct 2021.

Overall then, a disappointing update. The market cap has already dropped to £30m, and is likely to take another tumble today, I imagine. But it depends how enthusiastic holders are, and whether they’re prepared to support the share price by buying more?

Still too speculative & early stage for me, and now with a much less convincing growth story.

" Donald Trump thing is “I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody, and I wouldn't lose any voters.” Similarly, he can launch a company with no product, business plan or capital structure and the stock will double.
Every bad thing that a public company, or a public-company executive, does can be recast as securities fraud and lead to securities lawsuits. There will be like 200 securities-fraud lawsuits against Donald Trump by Christmas, enjoy!"

Smartspace Software (LON:SMRT) - profit warning, with guidance for FY 01/2022 lowered considerably. Not a very convincing growth story now, with growth having slowed. Difficult conditions re return to office delays are blamed.

The latest batch of London-based traders to relocate to the EU will be 50 from the Italian lender UniCredit, who will shift to Milan by the end of the year. Governments from Paris to Rome have offered tax breaks to bankers returning to the continent. Italy is offering a 70% rebate on income tax for the first five years plus the possibility to extend that for another five years.
