It's not going to hit 1-2p ever mate. You should have a word with yourself (and probably a financial advisor).

I'm still waiting for the 1-2 p that the rampers were promising. We're up 20% on the placing price (on the best possible fabricated news) and it will likely finish the day below that. As I said, it would always be a restricted rise with a real chance of getting spiked. On the upside, the BOD still have time to change the company name to Hydrogen 1 before the next (promised) placing in February.

that’s an interesting interpretation of marxism. =/

as for my agenda, i’ve explained that i’ve historically found some of the more considered posts on here informative and valuable (to the extent that it shifted my view) and wanted to reciprocate. it would seem i would have something to offer, as i do have a phd in this (and teach finance and economy at the university level). i’ve also called every shareprice movement correctly since november (i’m 6 for 6 and, i suspect, soon to be 7 for 7).

things have changed recently so i will be taking a step back. there were always the thoughtless rampers that just wanted to have their opinions spouted back at them, but the board overall used to be more balanced (with different, well considered, interpretations being pooled). it seems to me that the **** has bubbled to the surface. everyone seems drowned out by those same idiots that were proven wrong time and again at the end of the year, and seem intent on reproducing exactly the same mistakes. ironically (or perhaps unsurprisingly), the ones who’ve had to open a new ‘tranche’ because they can’t stomach to look at their previous investment, are the ones attacking any contrarian view .

so, for all those that contributed (joe, trek, lw [minus the incessant repetition] etc.), it was fun! for rj, turbot et al., i hope you spare a thought for me - even just for a moment - when you’re wiped out for the second time in two months. =p

Turbot: You seem to be trying very hard to convince us that you’re content in all aspects of life. From my experience, it’s quite rare to find a happy and content schmuck who loses money hand over fist making bonehead investment decisions. It’s much more likely that, in chasing rainbows , you’re trying to make up for something missing, or inadequate, in your life. But let’s leave that for you and your therapist (or, more likely, urologist) to sort out. As others have said, you really do seem like the worst kind of turd, and so for you mate I say fill your boots! I’m sure you can afford one more top up.

As for the comparison with LW... that is kind of funny. It would suggest that we have one very schizophrenic individual. I seem to remember telling everyone to sell at 6.8 while LW was still long. I also had quite an elongated spat with him/her that ended up with me filtering him. But, sure, go with that theory - though it does bring you precariously close to RJs sort reasoning (everyone disagreeing with him: 1. has multiple IDs, 2. is paid to bring the confidence level down (as though they board needs help with that) and 3. is some sort of creepy crawler that has come from under a rock/box. A general rule in life: try to be as little like RJ as you can and you might make money, your wife will share her bed with you and people will talk to you at parties.

Turbot

Of course you don't want any dissenting views. Don't want to interrupt a man from his echo chamber. Though...I would have thought, for all the usual-suspects/LTHs here, you may have gleaned that listening to the same 5-6 voices telling you that your investment is going to double and triple overnight (without giving any reasoned argument why that's the case) does not actually make it so. Apparently, you need another hard lesson. The point keeps being made - not by me - that the lack of humility here is startling. Most of you banging on about doubling you money today lost loads of capital in November and were proven to be wrong time and again with you assessment. And, yet again, you want to silence those that were proven to be right time and again.

As for me, feel free to filter me if you don't want to hear what are likely to be the hard truths. I have invested, and am willing to reinvest, in the right conditions. HE1 was one of my main money makers in 2023. I'll effectively be taking the family to Orlando in February on the back of the very profitable and predictable up and downs that I traded to death. I'm here because, amongst the sea of not vey sophisticated posters (like you), there are one or two that add value (be they invested or not invested, long or short) and help me to form my opinions. For them I post. For the rest, take what you will from someone who has made money on this share and mapped - as closely as I could in real time - all the moves that did make me money. For those: I had a tiny amount of exposure (with a .22 average) and sold up at a tiny loss (at .21) once I saw Lorna's interview from last week. For those that have more than they can afford to lose invested, I suggest you watch the interview; it's enlightening.

“I think you are spot on with this - talks of 5/10 bagging are pie in the sky . There is a different type of investor here now - don’t give a 💩about the project - & most will be out before results . I don’t see this rising much even on decent results.”

I haven’t heard anyone saying anymore they are planning on holding til commercial production. All the proud LTHs had their fingers burnt and are now just chasing loses. We also have some geniuses who think just because we’re at an all time low it must surely go up from here. Of course, if everyone is planning the same thing (to bail out on the news) it’s probably not a very good plan. In the best case scenario, we’d be talking about a very short and fast spike, which will quickly turn negative. But… hey ho, though I think the risk reward calculus has changed (and we are now in uninvestible/untradable territory), we are all adults here and can make our own decisions.

“If” is the question. In terms of gambling, I think you could fabricate much better odds on the next round of FA cup games.

The reason I’ve pulled out even my “I’m sure I’m going to lose it but I like a punt” money is because I’ve never seen so many PIs itching to sell up on a “commercial discover” is to be announced. It seems everyone’s plan is the same: to sell on the spike and try to get out whole before the next placing is announced. That’s not even taking into account the billion or so placing shares that I suspect still need to be shifted. If that’s everyone’s plan then I suspect it’s going to be a very disappointing spike… “IF” there’s a discovery. And, looking at Lorna’s face in the interview, I think even she thought the chances of the “if” happening were pretty long indeed.

Read slowly, one word at a time, and you tend to understand better what a text says. Feel free to also read my history where I tracked how I made a 45% return in October to November on HE1 (over £17k profit). I explained in every instance why I was buying a selling and, indeed, it was buying strategically when the price dropped (for stupid reason) and selling when everyone was buying when the price had recovered (just as I said below). Where you are wrong is buying just cause it’s at an all time low - like now. A bit simplistic don’t you think? If it drops because the rig is broken, then buy; if it drops because they released 3x more shares into the market and are about to go bankrupt… then it’s not a great time to buy. I suspect in a few weeks it will be clear who’s right and who’s lost their capital.

I disagree, a review of AIM explorers over the last 10 years suggests that they almost never recover from their lows, especially if the drop in the shareprice is driven by delusion and death spiral financing (both of which we’re seeing here). Sure, there’s minor fluctuations, but there’s a very clear downward trajectory. There are rare companies like Atlantic Lithium, Greatland Gold etc. (that are serious, well run and have deep-pocked backers) and they certainly came back from their trough to set new highs and, with them, your tactic would work. But, again, they avoided mass dilution.

But most explorers are like UKOG (a historically interesting explorer that actually did hit the jackpot with the ‘Gatwick Gusher”) or NUOG that diluted themselves effectively into the grave. I think you’re talking about trading the micro-fluctuations but, eventually, you’ll get wiped out if you’re invested at the wrong time (as all the LTHs were here in December). I’m pretty sure another big wipeout is coming in the next month or so, when the shares in issues again gets double or tripled as they try to raiser another few million with the sp almost at zero). Lorna said as much in her last interview and - as the blurb states - how much longer can they keep doing that.

For quite a while it was a trader’s dream. Everyone at some points learns not to invest in AIM explorers but, once you’ve learned that lesson, there’s quite a lot money to be made by buying when everyone is selling, and selling when everyone is buying. HE1 was one of the best of all time for that. The key is to get out before the music stops… which should be any day/week now.

In terms of the blurb, we look at HE1 in the course that I teach as an example of how deregulated AIM is and how, effectively, you can IPO a “company” from your mom’s basement with just a couple prospect licenses in your pocket and no money or sellable asset (or a straightforward route to sellable assets - e.g. “there be helium in them hills”). Most exchanges would push fledgling companies to build up something substantive before IPOing (e.g. take your dream to an angel Investors, or go onto Dragon’s Den), but AIM allows castles built on sand, and the formation of pure speculations that draw in the PIs. It’s sad when you see people on here taking companies like this seriously (and investing their life’s savings) but, as I said, it seems a rite of passage that every investor needs to go through, and you do come out stronger on the other side.

I suppose it would seem strange to you that someone might post at 10 o’clock at night, if your wife has already started limiting your internet access and given you strict bedtime curfew. I do feel sorry for her. No matter how much sleep you get, it doesn’t seem to help with your investing decisions. All that said, my guess is that you haven’t been completely honest about the last ‘tranche’ you wrote off before Christmas, and that you’re throwing good money after bad in the hope of saving the day. Thankfully, my finances (and marriage) aren’t dependant on the one and thousand chance of a soon to be bankrupt company randomly hitting the sweet spot in the Tanzanian desert.

Three more amazingly insightful posts from RJ. For everyone keeping track, the reason you should invest in HE1 is because the fall in share price is because a few paid derampers (are there such a thing?) or shorters (fyi: shorting AIM is incredibly risky and therefore incredibly rare in the industry) on the LSE board have been destroying confidence since double figures. It has nothing to do with no dig results, using dirty tricks to completely wipe out all LTH (which he seems to have clocked by the fact that his previous investment is now worthless) or the fact that they’ve diluted to high heaven and have promised to do so again in say…3 to 6 weeks. We should all bow to this titan of investing. No one quite understands the market - and the nuances of trading - as ol’ RJ. As I said, I’m just happy that when his new ‘tranche’ (I wonder if he opened a new ISA so that he’d have a brand new average) goes the way of his old ‘tranche’ his wife will ban him from using his laptop or any mobile devices.

Another shockingly focused and enlightening analysis from RJ. No variable was left unplumbed as he convinced all of us, without a shadow of a doubt, that HE1 was worth investing in. I hope everyone can now see that this is all he is capable of bringing to the table, though on this occasion, I did miss the ol’ “we know what your are”, “paid deramper”, “crawl into box” chestnuts that usually accompany his laser sharp evaluation.

Again, RJ, I don’t expect you (or the 5 or 6 in your echo chamber) to reply the points that I made. Those are the 4 very big elephants in the room. Responding to reasoned observations is not what you do. You make up some crap about alternative IDs, paid rampers, boxes that things crawl into. That’s the extent of your contribution (and reflects the extent of your investing nous). You guys keep quoting the Oxford academics that have promised HE in the region. Well, that’s exactly what I am as well (though I’m sure you knew that if you dug deep enough into my post history)… and I’m telling you, from my humble perspective, the most likely probability (by a very wide margin) is that everyone will lose their capital from this point.

RJ: I guess we’re going for 4 for 4. You’re an idiot. It’s not actually an opinion, but more a fact.

Give you an example of ramping while the ship is sinking… well, shall we look at every one of your posts since November. Not exactly balanced and analytic in your assessments are they. The most laughable were all the posts spewing about “it’s all up from here” as the sp was dropping 10% a day for three straight weeks.

As for quoting my message from almost a month ago…another example of your disingenuous approach. Believe it or not, the stock market does change one day from the next. HE1 was a very good buy at 4.5 p when it dropped following the first rig failure (that’s called a temporary set back and it would always recover the 20%). It was a very bad buy (again, not according to you) at 6.8p before the results, and an absolutely atrocious buy (again, not according to you) all the way down after they announced the need for funding without finalising it.

My post from December was right. Following the raise, it was a good buy. You were effectively getting the mates rates. Things have changed. In case you didn’t notice, 1. there has been no bounce (even on the spud announcement), 2. Everyone PI is itching to sell as soon as there’s a bounce 3. There are loads of placing shares still needed to be shifted above the placing price and 4. (Wait for it) Lorna AGAIN stated that a fundraise would immediately follow this dig. For anyone with half a brain (again, apparently, not you) this NOW makes it an uninvestable share and everyone should get out with whatever cash they can salvage. The 4 points above suggest that even the best results in the world will not shift the needle.

My only solace is that you will share the same sad fate that you are blindly leading this rabble towards. For the next few years you can reflect on all the good advice you ignored (and disparaged) from those who know a hell of lot more about investing than you do.

No point passing on anything logical JH; pearls to swine. Let them celebrate that it might claw back to .20 by 16:30, ignoring the fact it was 9.2p six months ago today. Eventually, the big picture (and rather consistent trajectory) will dawn on them… though their trading account will likely be at zero by that point.

Just got my He1 all time low notification. Wow… nobody saw this coming!

A bunch of charmers on the board today.

Well, I did my best, you and He1 heartily deserve one another. Btw, when you’ve lost this pot of money, shortly after the last pot, does that mean you disappear forever or do you keep coming back for more? If it’s the latter, I know of some other uninvestable AIM stocks that you guys would be all over. Just let me know when the results come in and I can help you do a seamless transition.

Chech: your bullishness would be funny if it wasn’t immediately following many people on this board losing 10s of thousands of pounds (many which made up their pension pots). I was touched by some of what I heard, and hope that they can claw it back somehow.

Your comments (paid cabal, deramper, can’t wait for the results) are almost verbatim the responses that I got when I suggested that everyone sell up at 6.8. See how that worked out.

Helx2: If you enjoy going through my chat history, keep going. I put out about 6 posts urging pi’s to sell after the last fundraise was announced and not completed - as the sp was dropping 5-20% a day for three straight weeks. Only idiots like RJ were urging people to buy during that period. Selling was the smart move then and it is now. I watched Lorna’s interview yesterday, and I can tell you it is no longer a smart investment decision. She has announced that immediately following the drill there will be a fund raise. Again, ask yourself, who would invest serious capital (on good news say) if they know they can wait a week and buy the same number of shares at a fraction of the price. If she could have kept her mouth shut, it would still be a good entry position. Then again, if she could do that, the share price would be at about 4p now and not .2.
