Don't see any benefits coming GSK's way. Rishi's gonna take away.

New funding for them. Is it a coincidence?

S & S adding shares should be reassuring but they are prabably only spending a small % of the Directors' fees you and I have paid them over the years. Still, I hear some protesting, they didn't need to. Perhaps even they think we have hit bottom now. I hope so.

... Q3 results. Market not expecting much so any good vaccine news will add to the SP. Here's hoping.

Which is that Ed is supposed to be behaving like the Investment Manager of our Investment Trust. Maybe this is the most he can tell us without breaching confidentiality but if it is, then perhaps he could tell us why he isn't more actively exploring options to dispose of all or part of our stake in Leap. It might just bring a tkeover out of the woodwork!

...traditionally not one that pops up with RNS often and could use a rabbit or three out of the hat right now. Otherwise, when it does come the SP will be so low most of us will still be under water.

....£3.20 after the split.

..of Interim results about mid-Nov, long before the Interims due in Jan 22. They are bound to be good compared to last 2 years so I am expecting a gentle upward curve during this winter. Unsure what difference increasing interest rates will have on prop shares but from such a low level, probably nil until we are into the spiral. I expect that next summer.

...to be a change of sentiment towards this right now. very pleasing but fickle.

....will only sink in over coming days. May sell some when reach 20p. Not until!

who has landed the part of The Dame in the Superdrug Xmas Panto?

Thanks, npwharf. Sounds as if you are based over there and have certain fingers in pies. I just hope we are not going to get nationalised for peanuts!

... is not this co's biggest virtue but I should have thought that with so many outstanding issues right now each desrving a RNS, it is reasonable to expect one in the next few week: the only real question is will it be the arrival of the mysterious millions?
The SP could certainly do with it!

...this 'dog' because maybe it will cease to be a 'dog' at some point. I recall the one of the biggest holders was the Botswana Civil Service Pension Fund and, unless they have got out (which would have deserved RNS) that will have some bearing on future developments. In my estimation (and I use that word advisably) this could be a turning point and it is certainly going to be worth holding for some months to allow matters to progress. I also have a gut feeling that Tony knows a little bit more about the flow of methane than he has made public and I can understand that if there was not a regular flow established,

InAfrica, that will be just enough time for the ink to dry!

Whizzer, but which wrist will you slit next year when these are a quid each?

Something positive here. Next stop 25p per share....hahaha.

...to appreciate that this is an Investment Trust and he is the Manager of said IT. He therefore owes each of us a duty of good faith and that means looking after our hard-earned and reporting back so that we are updated. I know the investments are almost all unlisted but we need to know how far some of these are from IPO/ takeover. Getting pretty sick of this performance.

Fair assessment, Pokerchips, 'all other things being equal'. Hopefully GSK have their own fleet of well-paid HGV drivers!!

Another tiny placing! Can be interpreted either good or bad. I am inclined to believe the former interpretation. Willing buyers to keep this shell going for now. They probably know more than us. Big news may be getting close because if not, they would surely have required more cash now rather than keep coming back?
