Already almost 14 million shares traded in the first hour and a half. SP recovering.
As I understand it the trial consists of patients at stage 5 cancer of the head & neck with an average four month
life expectancy. Latest update on 26th May shows 89% of patients alive at median 9 months, does not look bad to me.
I suspect with 19 patients it is challenging statistically, hence the expansion of the trial to the UK.
The larger the cohort the more accurately you can assess the benefit or non benefit of the treatment.
Having followed PDSB for a while it seems obvious to me the market for this small stock (for US market) is rigged.
We may see one or more institutions have sold heavily.
I have a theory - which coud be wishful thinking on my part that this is part of Merk's opening move, unsettling traders, small investors by exploiting a small difference since the last update relating to patients on the lowest dose.
That whilst we see heavy selling - Merk are already accumulating stock at very low prices.
Versamune-002 trial is being extended to UK

April 13th & 14th Excel London activity

ProAxsis Ltd (100% owned subsidiary)
Glycotest (64% holding)
PDS Biotechnology (NASDAQ Listed, 4.7% holding)
EMV Capital (100% subsidiary, corporate finance arm)
As shareholders in NSCI we hold the above stakes.
Below open to debate - you say 2.25% stake in SageTech
Several direct investments were made by NetScientific in the portfolio companies as part of the capital light investment model, and to enable the syndication of further funds by EMVC
Pointgrab (23% stake)
SageTech (23.8% stake)
Sofant (25.7% stake)
I would say fair value for £23 million market cap and some cash
I have found the below so looks like my mistake.
Fingers crossed all goes well.

We all recall the fiasco that was Daniel Mark Harrison and Monkey Capital.
I thought I would search Australia's equivalent of Companies House
I searched by name
https://sitesearch.asic.gov.au/s/search.html?query=GUINEVERE+CAPITAL&collection=asic&profile=asic
Then by Company Number located on this site https://opencorporates.com/companies/au/610943774
https://sitesearch.asic.gov.au/s/search.html?query=610943774&collection=asic&profile=asic
In each case I found nothing.
I also note Guinevere Capital's website is very basic - not that that is in itself indicative of anything .
Maybe I have made a basic error and perhaps someone can show we where I went wrong.
No not on Options - unless exercised.
You have been told they cannot be exercised until October 2022 and also the sp has to be
above 37 pence for 30 days in a row.
So they cannot collect any Dividend paid before October 2022 in any circumstance on
those Options.
Regarding Vortex.
Looking at 29th September Interim s they list an owned and an advised portfolio.
PDS for example is in the owned portfolio indicating we own 4.7%.
Vortex is in the advised portfolio listed at 96%
NSCI took over EMV , acquiring it's Portfolio, described below.
EMVC Evergreen EIS Fund is a discretionary portfolio which will make investments into EIS Qualifying Companies in technologies driving the advancement of British industrial high-tech and its applications; including robotics, artificial intelligence, machine vision, electronics, IoT and materials science. EMV Capital is exclusive adviser to the fund which is managed by Sapphire Capital Partners.
Is it the case EMV , now NSCI held 20% directly.
The additional 76% being clients of EMV, on which we are receiving fee income.
I would not make any stock recommendation.
I am no youngster and made some poor investment decisions over the years.
Also I am not authorised by the FCA to give investment advice.
Looked at SYME back in October 2010 when it was 0.48 pence a share
and disliked what I saw.
I thought it was a scam then, all the news since then has confirmed
that belief.
I hope for your sake that I am wrong and cursing my missing out on a fantastic investment.
Lets see who is right over the next few months.
Salvadori admits to being an SYME investor.
Market Cap £142 million - cash less than £4 million.
In its short life briefly suspended by the toothless FCA, who allow vast numbers of
frauds to proliferate without acting.
Yes we can pretend SYME requested suspension.
Enough hot air from management to take a hot air balloon over the North Pole
in winter.
Some say Italian and Maltese Mafia connections.
Suggestion original holders of worthless paper (SYME shares) busy dumping on
mug punters (Private Investors).
I do not know if any of the above is correct and I do not suggest it is.
Aforti UK has moved its Office address to 10 Orange Street Haymarket London WC2H 7DQ,
