Price on news of 201?23 Sep 2020 10:50
Hi ST
I am a relative newbie to VAL having bought at 16p back in mid-August. Thoroughly enjoying the journey and I am resisting the urge to take profits for once as I do think we have further to climb. I have really enjoyed the knowledge on the board, OB, ST, RB,Viera, Usain, Grace and many more - thank you - this is my first foray into Biotech on a rise and I have been reading and learning.
My question is around the price post news - when we were at 16p it was that others went up£50m Mcap on news so we should - we were circa £8m mcap. Views were from 80p to over the £1. My question is why have these targets risen by same posters as price rises pre news? If we were going to add £50m, then speculation pre news is simply closing the gap? Or does the frenzy change the likely impact of news?
Any view based on past experiences gratefully received.
