Brilliant news for Gnanomat@Versarien - one of the 'substantial' funding awards alluded to in the recent presentation!

Ditto Siravago - A golden opportunity, in my view, so have filled my boots accordingly!

Agreed, the company is surely about to enter a rich vein of form - a major uplift from the newly commissioned IO10 predicted and a potentially larger, more powerful IO11 about to follow hot on its heels, meaning an annual 1000MT (circa) could well be on the cards. That's when many expect the bigger boys to start circling for a TO - very interesting times ahead here and definitely one to add to the portfolio at this seemingly under-priced entry point.

Ditto Jd. Some very positive updates in the last few weeks and if the Koreans cough up/mature business gets sold, it should head north from here.

So, you've bought in, Ace/Neilll77?!

You're working ever so hard here IA, as you make your same point many times over. We all know the score with VRS,

so I think we're capable of making our own judgments and will or won't invest, according to our risk appetite.

Whether you like it or not, today's RNS, despite having no hard numbers, clearly summarised that the turnaround strategy

is in full operation and corners have been turned. It remains to be seen whether the numerous opportunities in the pipe-line will actually come to financial fruition, but there are indeed grounds for renewed optimism.

Dogs don't tend to make million pound profits!

That's looking like a large buy after hours today to add to the large buys yesterday. Someone's interested and sees more than fair value here, so expecting to see a TR1 very soon.

So am/have I - That 10,000 at 18p just now was actually a buy.

Indeed, strange, could it be a hangover from yesterday's sales? Also, my 10k buy first thing this morning at 21.06p did show as a buy, but is surrounded by so-called sells which are at a higher price! Anyway, am not overly concerned, as I think momentum is building now for an upwards move from this ridiculously low price, what with IO10 construction well under way and healthily increasing production forecasts through to 2026 as we head ever closer to that fabled 1000MT!

Not ignoring anything, having followed this particular story very closely for many years. As I said in my post, it's still a 'very speculative' investment, but I believe corners have been turned, so I'll take my chances, thank you!

Well, past is past and the focus should be on licensing deals and the sale of the mature businesses for this company to survive. I suspect that discussions on the latter have advanced and on that basis, I added a few more at the bell today from recent ITV profits. Still very speculative, I know, but I've got a feeling that the graphene profile is rising. Versarien seem to be in the right space at the right time and are in a good position to turn things around imo.

Sold the lot again yesterday just before close, as I'm expecting it to take another breather and retrace but wtfdik! Holding shares long term has so far always cost me very dear, so I'm learning to bank modest but reasonable profits when I can.

Of course, having sold, this will doubtless storm ahead again today - GLA!

A couple of large buys this afternoon, one at the bell, suggests next week's figures are going to be good.

Not sure cheeky101 but they'll be out by beginning of next week and should read well. Hubs, reckon you're being optimistic about I010 coming online in 'a few weeks' time' - more likely a few months imo. That said, there's a lot to look forward to here with the spot prices holding firm and, potentially, a storming H2 production rate leading to a record '24 final number - assuming the rollout/plant commissioning goes to plan, of course! I paid in the 30s to max out my ISA in this share last year and never expected to be down here again for the latest new ISA allowance. Despite myself, as well as the portfolio being overweight in IOF, just couldn't resist adding a few more at circa 20p. Now just going to sit back and hopefully reap the rewards... famous last words!!

Yes, indeed, good summary. Expecting several re-tests of the late 60s over the next few weeks, then onwards and upwards.

B3ast, Don't you worry your pretty little face over it... We're all big boys/girls here and take our chances on the vagaries of AIM and the stock market in general. You save your ideas for your own personal investments and don't lose any sleep over the rest of us and ours. Confident that VRS will rebound here. Good weekend to one and all!

My buy has actually shown as a buy today and there seem to be plenty of others snapping up the shares at this price, so the placing shares are likely to be cleared quite quickly. Agreed on being glad to get it over and done with at a slightly better price than we might otherwise have got - laughable really when you think of the heady highs it's descended from, but am much more optimistic about things in light of recent announcements, particularly as I've been able to bring my average down considerably. Still a long way to go, though corner turned, in my view.

The 10:32 transaction of 162000 shares was in fact a purchase, so I think it's safe to assume all those recent so-called sells this morning at around that price (0.15) are also buys. The investment proposition is starting to look much more attractive now with these latest contractual developments and the positive media coverage should help things along nicely.

Which should shut some of the doomsters up!
