Whatever people's political views, the UK will want to arrive at the NATO summit demonstrating a clear commitment to defence and security. International credibility matters, and announcements are often timed around major global events.

That ultimately benefits ALRT, the sector tailwinds look stronger than they have for some time.

GLA and DYOR.

EmeraldCarrots - £11.50-£12.50 if a deal happens? Maybe.

But what's the share price if it doesn't?

Wizz has already warned that the Iran conflict has hurt profits and disrupted operations, and the company has withheld full-year guidance because of the uncertainty.

If there's no deal, I wouldn't be surprised to see the market remain cautious, especially with fuel prices and geopolitical risk still hanging over the sector

The upside is easy to imagine. The downside deserves just as much thought.

Cev - I bought at 2p and the share price seems to have taken that as a sell signal.

It's been lower ever since!

All I can do now is be patient and see whether the investment case plays out.

GLA and DYOR.

👀 Maybe...

New partner.

New contract.

New customer.

Or maybe something none of us have even considered.

That's the nature of micro-caps. Things can change very quickly.

And when sentiment shifts, so can the share price.

DYOR. ✔️

Great research.

The direction of travel looks clear to me. When budgets are tight, governments look to AI and software to make existing assets smarter rather than simply buying more hardware.

The debate around sovereign AI only reinforces that trend. Whether ALRT benefits remains to be seen, but the sector tailwinds are hard to ignore.

One potential spanner in the works is the Israel-Lebanon situation.

Even if the US and Iran reach an agreement, wider regional tensions may not disappear overnight. Any flare-up involving Hezbollah or Israel could quickly affect market sentiment and oil prices.

I'm encouraged by the positive noises, but I don't think it's as simple as one signature and everything is solved.

Hopefully, common sense prevails, but until then I'm keeping one eye on the headlines.

GLA and DYOR.

TWK, you mention free speech, yet seem unhappy when someone expresses a positive view.

Debate is healthy. Personal digs add very little.

I'll keep sharing my opinion, you keep sharing yours, and the market will have the final say.

Perhaps it's time for hibernation until the next RNS. DYOR.

Nobody knows for certain, but a deal appears to be closer than it has been for some time.

Could it be signed tomorrow? Yes. Is it guaranteed? Absolutely not.

Until there's an official announcement, I'd treat it as promising, but unconfirmed. DYOR.

TWK, perhaps it's time to go back into hibernation until the next RNS.

By that logic, a university degree is worthless because the application form was only a few pages long.

The value isn't in joining the programme, it's in what a company does with the opportunity once it's inside the ecosystem.

Time will tell whether ALRT can turn the Oracle relationship into meaningful commercial success, but reducing it to a $500 application fee feels more like point scoring than analysis.

Strategic partnerships are about access, credibility and potential routes to market, not the price of the paperwork.

Until then, maybe a little less hibernating and a little more research.

DYOR.

Fair point, MadMat.

I agree the signals coming out of Iran do seem more positive than we've seen for a while, and if a deal is finally agreed I think Wizz could have a very strong Monday.

My only reservation is that we've had a fair few "it's nearly done" moments before, only for politics to get in the way at the last minute.

So I'm cautiously optimistic rather than fully convinced. If the signatures go on the paper, I'll be as pleased as anyone.

Here's hoping this time the positive noises turn into positive action.

GLA and DYOR.

👍 Thanks!!

It will be interesting to see how many investors and potential investors visit this board over the weekend.

I know there are plenty of people who read the posts but prefer not to comment, and that's absolutely fair enough.

So here's a chance to be counted without having to make a post. If you're following the story and have an interest in ALRT, simply tick the Recommend button below.

It won't prove anything scientifically, but it might give us all a rough indication of the level of interest that's quietly building behind the scenes.

✔️ Tick... Tick... Tick... ✔️

Closing price: approximately $0.0199

• Daily gain: +10.56%

• Up around 32% over the last five trading days

Of course, the OTC market can be relatively thinly traded and doesn't guarantee what will happen when London opens, but it's still encouraging to see positive sentiment building on the other side of the Atlantic.

It will be interesting to see whether that confidence carries over into the UK market.

GLA and DYOR.

"If" is a very big word.

If there's a genuine peace deal over the weekend, then Wizz could open much higher on Monday. Nobody would argue with that.

But what if it doesn't happen?

We've heard countless times that a deal is "close", "imminent" or "never been nearer". The markets jump, the headlines roll in, and then a few days later we're back where we started.

For me, peace isn't achieved by a press release or a social media post. It happens when agreements are signed and actions follow words.

Until then, I'll keep a healthy dose of scepticism. Trading on facts has served me better than trading on political promises.

"If" is a very big word, and it's one that can cost investors a lot of money if they forget the difference between hope and reality.

Just my view.

DYOR

MadMat -Cloud Cuckoo Land

1,350 on Monday because of a peace deal?

I'll believe it when I see signed agreements rather than another optimistic headline.

We've heard "a deal is close" more times than I can remember. Trump has a habit of making bold statements that grab the headlines and get the markets excited, only for reality to prove more complicated.

Could a genuine peace deal send Wizz sharply higher? Absolutely.

Do I think it's wise to price that in before anything is actually agreed? Not for me.

Until there's something concrete, I'm treating it as more market theatre than market fact.

Just my opinion. DYOR.

ALRT - The Pieces Are Falling Into Place

The more I look at ALRT, the more I believe the company is moving in the right direction.

Over the last few months we have seen what appears to be a clear strategy unfold rather than a series of disconnected announcements. Management has outlined its vision, strengthened the team, expanded its strategic partnerships and increased its visibility within the UK defence and sovereign AI landscape.

For me, one of the biggest positives is the calibre of the people involved. Companies rarely attract experienced industry figures unless they believe there is a genuine opportunity to build something of value.

The sector itself could hardly be more relevant. Governments and organisations are placing increasing emphasis on secure, sovereign AI and advanced decision-support capabilities. ALRT has positioned itself in a market that could see substantial long-term growth.

I also like the fact that ALRT is a Main Market company. There are very few opportunities for private investors to gain exposure to this type of UK-focused defence and AI story through a listed vehicle, and being on a larger exchange can help broaden the potential investor base over time.

Another aspect that stands out to me is the way the company appears to be diversifying its platform. Rather than relying on a single opportunity or market, it seems to be building a broader ecosystem through partnerships, technology and multiple avenues for growth. That kind of diversification can create resilience and open up additional long-term value if executed well.

What encourages me further is that the market appears to be taking notice. The share price seems to be re-rating gradually, which can be a far healthier sign than a short-lived speculative spike. Confidence is built over time, and steady progress often attracts a broader investor base.

No investment is without risk, and there will always be quieter periods and red days, but I believe the overall direction of travel remains positive. If the company continues to execute and delivers further encouraging news, I think the market could reassess the valuation significantly.

As always, everyone must make their own decisions, but from where I'm sitting, I see a company with an interesting strategy, a growing profile, a diversified platform, a strong sector backdrop and plenty of reasons to remain optimistic about the future.

GLA and DYOR.

Frank6 - Let's be realistic.

If peace breaks out, the Russia-Ukraine war ends and the Pratt & Whitney engine issues are resolved, then yes, Wizz could be a very different company.

But markets don't wait for perfect news. They usually price in improving conditions long before all the boxes are ticked.

Equally, there are still plenty of "ifs" in that scenario. We've all seen optimistic headlines before, so I'm happy to stay cautiously optimistic rather than assume everything falls into place overnight.

If even half of those headwinds disappear, I think the upside could be substantial. If they all do, then today's price may look very cheap indeed.

GLA. DYOR.

Bobbins2 - 😂 You could be onto something there!

With Trump, a pinch of salt isn't enough. You need an industrial skip, a cement mixer and probably a whole salt mine.

I've reached the stage where I wait for the signed paperwork before believing the latest headline!
