Should be good for the Surfing

A few months ago, I posted that we should pay attention to Israel as they were further ahead with vaccinations. They have made greater use of the Pfizer vaccine, which we are using for under forties. So this is not good:

"Pfizer and BioNTech’s Covid-19 vaccine is just 39% effective in Israel where the delta variant is the dominant strain, according to a new report from the country’s Health Ministry.
The two-dose vaccine still works very well in preventing people from getting seriously sick, demonstrating 88% effectiveness against hospitalization and 91% effectiveness against severe illness, according to the Israeli data."

This short film (12 minutes) is from a distributor of PHC products and is about restoring soil health; it may interest some:

PHC releases their Interims on Monday morning and have an Investor Meet presentation at 4pm on Monday afternoon. The results are not expected to be significant but will give an idea of the progress they are making. They do have competitors such as Zymergen.

Expectations are low based on the little data that sleuths have managed to find on nearby wells.

One of UKOG's greatest assets is their management's ability to raise funds - some would have expected more data to have been released prior to raising funds if the market was underestimating the local area's potential.

mannnan,

They still have quite a bit of cash; they will be able to keep going on their nanotech journey whilst paying themselves CEO wages. Often this type of company ends up a lifestyle company that raises more money for an "exciting" new venture [more responsibility for management so more money for management].

Eventually it can end up in a situation where there are significant accumulated losses, so the cash shell game can be played; raise another £6m and become an investment company and pay management whilst they look for the next exciting investment area.

You will have seen some micro-oilers are now planning on becoming geothermal specialists, despite it not being economic to produce geothermal energy. The same cake for management, just a different recipe.

'Do you ever ever ever think before you post?'

Seems to be a policy of "Flood the zone with 5H!t"

Steve Bannon would approve.

'This is an opportunity to dyor and decide if the potential of the future is worth .08 of a penny!'

Crumbs - .08 of a penny is another 90% down. Talk about deramping...

Why not focus on sales and revenue?

'Whilst sales of the Pro-Larva mask remain a key priority, the Group is increasing its focus on developing the portfolio of new products.'

Another possible battery advance; cheap and suited to grid storage. ArcelorMittal is a lead investor; they hope to be in production this decade.

'Form Energy’s iron-air battery breathes in oxygen and converts iron to rust, then turns the rust back into iron and breathes out oxygen, discharging and charging the battery in the process.

“There is a Cambrian explosion of new storage technologies and in a Darwinian sense, they are not all going to survive. But the prize is huge both for investors and for society,” says Ramez Naam, a clean-energy investor who isn’t involved with Form Energy.'

Some relief maybe, but the drought is not over yet; an analogy from the USGS:

"Rainfall in any form will provide some drought relief. A good analogy might be how medicine and illness relate to each other. A single dose of medicine can alleviate symptoms of illness, but it usually takes a sustained program of medication to cure an illness. Likewise, a single rainstorm will not break the drought, but it might provide temporary relief."

Same with Directors Buys.

I used to use infrared OCR scanners - use the wrong colour ink, and you are f_[%ed. The EU said the forms were in the wrong format as far as I am aware...

A Hedge Fund I am interested in has a stake in Reverie Labs - they are computational biologists engineering new Protein Kinases. Their website may be of interest, even if just to see the emerging competition who have very deep pockets:

Not £30m - £40m!

At least the discount is not steep.

The Market Makers are engaging in psychological warfare - they are encouraging buys by making it seem that they are offering bargains.

mannnan,

'Nothing is strong buy. Lol'

It is no laughing matter to run out of toilet paper, is it?

Hedge fund founder Paul Marshall calls pro-Trump rioter’s death ‘murder’, then deletes tweet
Marshall's tweet, which was subsequently deleted, said: 'Totally shocking footage. By my reckoning this was cold-blooded murder'

Will they ban Ben and Jerry's adverts?

'Announced in September 2020 and launched in June the following year, the channel was founded with £60 million in funding, the majority of which was provided by Discovery, Inc., Legatum, and Paul Marshall.'

LBC saying they do not want to put out scare stories BUT "shops running out of food"; Daily Mail lead article about "Supermarket bosses beg shoppers not to panic buy as bottled water, bread, meat and frozen food runs low".

Delivery slots fully booked into August, with Ocado / other stores likely as well. There is only one thing to do when FOMO panic buying starts:
