Does anyone know, is there any danger the conflict in Sudan could spill over to Ethiopia?

Serious question, not de-ramping in any way.

Thanks Horsers. Yes that makes sense, still early days for a near-novice like me, still a lot to learn.

I seem to have missed basic training and gone straight for high risk investments, that would probably explain why I have made so many poor decisions and my PF is underwater!

Learning though.... I hope....

Just need MATD to hit 10p+ and solve all my problems ;-) not too much to ask surely?

No sign of any rushing in here before close and pushing the SP up to 6p, let alone 7p or whatever.

Looks like there are plenty who are happy to be out of this over the weekend, maybe they are the wise ones?

I had a look back at the share graph over time, was this really worth 200p a share back in 2011? Just what have they been doing for 12 years, for many of which MATD has been mired in the 2p/3p/4p range, with the occasional blip up to 6p or 7p? 35p in 2017 and since then? Pretty much funk all.

Beginning to wonder if anything real will happen here, history would suggest not.

Just saying.

Fingers crossed we get news next week.

Interesting to see report on tonight's news about mercenary hackers who, according to our National Cybersecurity Centre, are now targeting UK infrastructure and all the things we use and need to perform our daily tasks, scary stuff.

What was really interesting is that ITV News at Ten had Mike Beck from DarkTrace explaining the threat and spectrum of hackers from individuals to organised crime groups to really sophisticated (Government backed?) groups, and that there are more and more coming into it all the time.

No such thing as bad publicity, any DT exposure hopefully a good thing.

...... beginning to resemble my heart monitor!!

@ Mister Positive

"If RNS lands tomorrow" seems like a BIG 'if' now we know nothing has been granted yet.

ps. I tried the link to Mongolian Gov website to "do my own research" and Norton Security flagged it as a known dangerous & risky site!

Suffice to say I didn't open anything just in case.

And by the way, it's MRPAM, not MPRAM..... jeez, driving me ma(t)d ;-)

@ Growmorecash - I'm glad it wasn't just me, I couldn't see it either but was afraid to post in case I got harangued by the mob!

So after all the excitement and posts declaring "we have LP" "LP on its way" "LP RNS soon" and "read between the lines, this letter can only mean LP granted" there is still no LP?

I think the moral here is nothing is concrete guaranteed until it actually happens for real and we have RNS declaring it, and until then we should avoid all this rumour, gossip and tittle tattle or investors could make ill-informed decisions based on mis-truth, mis-information or human error. I know I have and I hope I don't regret it.

Despite all the positivity surrounding this, and all of the reasons given why LP will 'definitely' be granted - of national importance etc. - there is still the very real possibility that it won't, and until it is reported either way we simply don't know.

Let's all calm down and wait for news to drop instead of all this wild speculation.

9,317,212 shares bought back to date, average price paid 254.3585, total spent £23,699,116.

DT still have £51.3M set aside to buy back more shares.

Velociraptor?

;-)

Try the Progressive Equity Research Report dated 2nd March, it's a bl**dy good read!

I'm no expert but it all looks good to me.

Praying for LP soon though, fingers crossed that comes in like we all hope it will.

Wow! Simply.... wow!

At last, I have an investment that's making money - looking good so far, will look a hell of a lot better if this heads anywhere near 15-25p in the next couple of months, that will make me a very happy chap indeed.

Nothing guaranteed until we have concrete news but here's hoping.

Looks like profit-takers flooding in now.

Tempted myself but didn't want to spoil the party!!

Hopefully will bounce back and then some before close, hopefully concrete LP news soon then we're away :-)

8,509,059 shares bought back to date, average price paid 254.88, total spent £21,687,891.

DT still have a spare £53M to continue this exercise.

Who knew it took so long to spend £75 million?

HL just quoted 4.715p to sell 200,000, not that I'm selling yet.

Why so many trades for volumes barely into double figures today?

Seems odd to me, surely that isn't helping the SP?

I thought that yesterday when I bought more @ 249.

Should've waited, should have known better. Stupid hindsight.

Well, definitely not the RNS we were hoping for, either Monday or today - the excitement of seeing an RNS posted then quickly followed by disappointment once opened.

How long-termers here - 10 years or more - have stuck with this I'll never know. I've only been here - in & out - for a couple of years and it's driving me spare!

As always, it's the wording that worries me, and today's is no exception "expected signing within the next month or so of the Final Umbrella Agreement". It's the "or so" that does it for me - how long is "or so"? 1 month? 2 months? 6 months?

Apparently all parties are targeting construction start to coincide with the next dry season in October so I guess all we can do - again - is wait..... and hope..... and pray?

So frustrating.

And so it begins. Interested to see how it pans out this time.

Not invested here at the moment as no cash to invest, but still watching......

Nobody wants to see that! At least, no one already on board here.

I was beginning to think no one was posting here today.......
