The latest Investing Matters Podcast with Jean Roche, Co-Manager of Schroder UK Mid Cap Investment Trust has just been released. Listen here.
Not quite can I answer your Q but for example HL has a sort of manual queue/processing for fill/kill orders, which is to say if you queue up something overnight like you have they'll process it "at some point". Usually in the first half an hour of the trading day but that often means the latter part of the first half hour. My guess would be that you ended up in the same boat. Long story short, don't trust the automated systems and do it yourself -- I got burnt a few times as well on this.
Thanks everyone :)
I agree it's very likely that it's SNG that is the interferon drug they're likely to include. I was just curious if they actually explicitly name it rather than giving it a drug-study-number (like say IFB012345) and then once the study completes at the end of the year they'd name things. Hopefully not! :)
Morning,
Apologies for not going through the whole of the recent postings but at 400-500 per day it's a bit challenging and so this may have already been discussed. Basically my understanding is that SNG is likely to be part of the ACTIV2 study in the USA, which if it turns out to be the case would boost the SP.
The ACTIV2 (according to the gov't website [clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/record/NCT04518410]) has been ongoing since August 2020 -- essentially the question is that when would they name the participating drugs in the trial and why then? (I'm not expecting a "Monday" sort of answer here espc since of course nobody knows that precisely, and I've watched the various videos posted on the BB that were excerpts from TV/media where some of this was discussed, but I'm trying to understand why "now-ish" there's an expectation that participating drugs would be named if the completion of the study isn't due till December-ish and it's already been ongoing for a relatively long while)
thnx
Worry you not, once this is over there still won't be money for the NHS or the people that work in it. They print money now and then eventually recoup that from middle class taxes but the health system won't see much of it. It's just how it goes. :/
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, even those who aren't fully jolly-happy-singalongs. As much as "some people" like to tell off the so-called bedwetters for being less-than-happy-go-lucky, everyone can equally "STFU" to quote you. Or filter. Or just f... off indeed. You, me, anyone.
Especially those that love to collect "likes" on this board love to forget that not everyone joined in at 3p or some such levels. Obviously I don't mean all the popular posters are like that but many are. And a lot of people lash and bash out at others saying DYOR but hands up who actually has personal experience with mining and geology and the political workings of Russia/China/etc -- all at the same time. Probably very few. I work in IT and read relevant stuff for my field, been at it for well over a decade and still would struggle to make "the right" investment choices with the fairly wide knowledge I have in that field. If you say that's entirely my fault then one of us is stupid.
People that make decisions based on what's being said on this BB are usually not the ones that have the knowledge of all those topics outlined above, and before someone says "well then those ppl shouldn't be here", perhaps true, but that applies to the majority of readers and commenters here. If people had wanted to "get rich slowly", they'd probably invest in ETFs or traditional saving accounts or something that's not on AIM in general. Yes to be on AIM needs a bit of a stronger stomach I'll give you that.
Very few admit that 1) PIs have little-to-no influence on what's going on with EUA and 2) in all fairness our combined opinion is worth f...k all in the big scheme of things. The sale should happen. Will it be x or y p/£? It's very obvious that the guesses are very extreme and as such essentially irrelevant.
This is AIM where sh.t flows up or down and does it rather very quickly. Yes if people don't like that, invest elsewhere. But stop this crap about 'bedwetters' and whatnots. It's very childish and just because some have invested when the stock was cheap, good for them. They've multi-bagged, sliced, whatnot. Easy to be b...tching at those less lucky/"DYORd"/IDC.
You will have to excuse those that have been sitting around since summer or so listening to the dozen of identical posts per week all above the lines of "mega rns is coming" and "we'll be rich in a jiffy" and whatnot and seeing other mining companies doing significantly better over the past some months than EUA. Again, this is AIM, it's how it is. A bit of mutual respect would be nice (yes, from both sides! Those that call the others bedwetters and those that are genuine holders but have doubts. Even those that short. People want to make money. All people want to make money.). And anyone that doesn't like it, filter/stfu/f-off/drink something.
@Lb: Noted, thanks.
Works for me if it goes up :) - my avg is around 3.5p-ish so happy already but as a % of my total I don't have particularly large proportions here...yet. Let's see how the next days go!
Pretty happy the price is up but I'm still curious if there was anything specific new or people mis-reading the year of that RNS mentioned below? No speeding ticket I guess, which is encouraging.
There is no info on that AFAIK. But presume the logic is (theoretically), that if 'everyone' gets vaccinated, or at least a high proportion of people do then even if it lasts for only (say) 3-6 months that should be enough for the virus to die off naturally because of mass immunity etc. Ofc that's only the theory.
Reply from HL for those interested.

Well, as much as it should be a DYOR world, I occasionally take the convenient way.
Also unlike nowadays 20 yrs ago there was a lot less stuff documented on the internet.
If that makes you happier, yes, I can be lazy. My loss. Or not.
I'm saying that if I owned a business that's dependent on minerals being sourced from places that can cut off supplies at a whim of their political wishes I wouldn't see the point of buying assets in said countries because they would cut me off if they felt like regardless of having put extra money into them or not.
"Telsa is in China, and one of it's largest growing markets." -- yes, and if China was to come up with a retaliatory idea for whatever misgivings they have w/ the Americans and say only Chinese EV manufacturers would be allowed to sell in China, what would stop them from doing so. Or taxing the export of certain relevant minerals?
The Americans effectively banned Huawei from the US and significant parts of the EU, and did so rather quickly because they felt like. What's to say China couldn't pull a similar trick?
"Russia is many things... ‘politically unstable’ it isn’t." -- yes, agreed, and if you read again my initial post I wrote that some countries are in unstable regions, OR Russia etc :)
Though even Putin can't live forever but that's a story for another day most likely.
Even so, if CV pushes more and more people into joblessness in Russia and oil prices keep being relatively low, they might have troubles as well.
