Government contracts will not be a sell on news event7 Feb 2021 13:31
With the positive news in the Financial Times today and government contracts seemingly closer, I thought I would repost this, highlighting why government contract announcements will not be a sell on news event for Omega.
----------------------
Seeing the performance of Novacyt following government contracts announced on the 29th of September could give investors here an insight into what Omega's s.p could do if/when big LFT contracts come in from the UK gov.
Prior to the announcement, NCYT’s s.p was 467.5p and that day it made a high of 595p, but closed the day at 524p, a measly 12% up, however 8 days later the s.p closed at 880p (+88%) and 18 days later the s.p closed at 1194p (+155%).
What this shows it that those investors that sold the news with NCYT on the gov contracts, lost out big. With such big company news, it can take a while for the market to digest the news and value the company accordingly.
When big news comes here, those that sell out on news for a 12% gain could be losing out, instead do your research, assign the company a valuation that you think is fair and wait for the market to reach the same conclusion.
