Bitcoin's definitely raising a few eyebrows of late, but there's got to be real danger of that bubble bursting soon. Don't see how it necessarily affects the SP here. Silver is at a pretty-much 5yr high, and UFO is potentially sitting on top of a LOAD of iron and silver. I suspect we're just drifting a little lower in that no-man's-land between December's confirmation of approval to drill in Mexico, and the next RNS on initial results. As always, it's a case of being patient (no day trading for me).

I know what you mean Lovejoy22. On the basis of short term turmoil I've cut some of my holding here at 25% profit. Still confident of longer term, so majority of holding still stands. Just wish we could fast forward about 6 months.

Yikes - just realised I'd mistyped. I meant 50-100% growth in the next year !! 5-10% looks VERY conservative. :-)
Not a smooth line, but I wouldn't be surprised to see between 10-30% SP growth in the first half, and then acceleration in the latter half as "normal" begins to return.

And of course there may be unforeseen bumps along the way.

Thanks to you Grace. You've been one of the most informative and helpful people on the whole LSE BB. because of your comments in the summer I threw a small hat into the VAL ring and found myself multi-bagging for the first time. I'm still in (having sliced profit) and looking forward to a positive year ahead. HNY everyone.

Whitgates - are you some kind of idiot ? "When there are only 1,000,000 being vaccinated a wk. Then it's going to years, years to vaccinate just under 70 million. Do the maths."

Err, okay. That'll take about 68 weeks. Or 1.2 years. At current capacity. New vaccinations about to be approved will add to that capacity. And it's fairly clear that the priority will be: older and more vulnerable first. Key workers second. So the overwhelming majority whose bodies are most likely to cope with Covid will be in the next tranche. And once we reach about 75% coverage (bear in mind 3% of the UK has already been diagnosed and recovered) then that concept of herd-immunity is in reach. It's not going to happen overnight or even in Q1 2021. But to suggest multiple years is disingenuous.
Either make a point backed with evidence or stop. But if you're trying to create a lower buy-in point or trying to short then don't have the arrogance to imagine that your sole comments on a bulletin board will make an iota of difference to a globally traded stock. For crying out loud.

Normally when I do that it's a bad RNS. I bought into Eqtec in the summer and the next day they RNS'd that they were on the receiving end of a copyright litigation. Great success !
Anyway, today looks like a clarification of detail and progress more than any significant positive. Still, pointing in the right direction. Have a good one, all.

So it's looking like we've definitely established a solid platform at around 7.8 - 8.2p. Which is unfortunate for me as I took a little stake at 9, and then a larger one as it accelerated up to 1.23 before dropping sharply on the placing and acquisition news. Ho hum.
Expecting to see announcements in the first two months of 2021 relating to LVG integration taking us back up to the 1p or low 1s. I wish I could have waited and bought in now because I think we'll see a rebound soon. Happy Christmas everyone.

We've seen something like 50% growth in the last two months, largely based on the Pfizer cavalry (other vaccinations are available folks) and the next year should see something like 50% of the UK population treated and (at this rate) the other 50% having already had the disease.
HMSO could be in a great position to benefit from the psychological hedonism that follows a period of sacrifice. in other words, in spite of domestic financial difficulties that many will face, people enjoy the experience of shopping as a reward to themselves. After enduring 2020 and the first half of 2021, once it's safer for everyone, I expect we'll see a flood to shopping centres. Online is convenient and often cheaper. But there's something about "going shopping" and picking up bags of new stuff that will be a huge psychological remedy for a lot of people. So in my view, dadean, I am very optimistic HMSO will double next year despite probably having some choppy trading results in the immediate term. Happy to invest here and keep the money locked-in for 12-24 months. If I'm right then it'll average about 5-10% growth over the next year. Obviously this is all just my opinion and DYOR, etc. Happy Christmas.

Holy moly. My Techtrader phone app says BMN at -2%. "No problem", I thought, "it usually starts like that and then pops up later at +1.5%". Thought I'd check here and found it's suddenly at 17p ! So glad I bought in again a couple of months ago. Definitely headed to where it should be. Happy Christmas everyone - especially those who held their breath underwater for so long.

You can all thank me. I had an average holding of 105 and enjoyed the climb to 130. Put in a stop loss of 111p.
Today for about 20 minutes it slipped under and has immediately bounced. I've not lost per-se. But FFS !

Anyone got a sense of whether today's RNS is likely to affect investor sentiment ? I know I'm offering myself up to sacrifice by asking (at least I would be on boards populated by trolls and goons) but I've not experienced a shift like this before. I can't see that it changes anything materially, but just wondered if others have experienced it and whether it's added or taken risk from a holding ? Thanks.

Exactly the right attitude, imo. Any slight advantage helps, but with the probable trajectory on offer here, that little .05p will be like complaining that you only got a nebuchadnazzar instead of a melchior of free champagne.

Oh dear - sorry, I hadn't meant to trigger a speculation. My own feeling is that some of the financials are built into the current SP as people are already anticipating progress. But you'd think with a handful of smaller projects and maybe a couple of mediums, a turnover of around £40-60M ??? (using aandi's figures on capex and EQT's share). So I'm in with bandicoot's statement at 14:24 today but maybe a little less bullish: 4 - 7p anticipating a couple of unforeseen difficulties and higher costs (same sentiment on "so long as it's above my buy price", though !).

I can tell good things are coming soon. I've had that "Hmmm, MNRG isn't going in the direction I want. It's been a bit quiet. Do I still feel confident, or should I sell ?"
Last time I had that feeling was when ORM was at 0.9p for a few weeks. I sold. Two days later it was at 1.6p.
So I am DEFINITELY HOLDING with MetalNRG. :-)

Thanks Aputure and aandi. Appreciate you sharing the news.
Just checking the Fundamentals again. Am I right in seeing that EQT made £1.7M in 2019 ? As in turnover ? During which the SP averaged around .65 ?
I know there's a lot more to it than just that correlation, but could 2021 be very exciting here ?

With you, dvharrison. The 3p Souffle a couple of months ago was filled with speculative traders. Which is encouraging for what's about to come (going up) but adds risk after (profit claimed). A nice steady climb to 1.5 through January (but fluctuating day-to-day) would be a solid support for any announcement in early Spring. And who wouldn't want 30% growth in just 1-2 months ? Fingers crossed.

Thanks Qualia - I hadn't seen the spread. Too busy doing actual work for a change, and just glancing at my phone occasionally, uttering "yikes", and "Aye-Carumba". Def not day-trading here. More focused on medium term turnaround and looking forward to 2021 goodness. Cheers.

The SP's bouncing up and down all over the place on my TechTrader App. Is that real, and if so then any idea why it's flying about from +2% to -6% in seconds ? I mean I'm accustomed to AIM stocks, but DVRG today has been insane.

I do that all the time, Eglloyd. But something tells me it won't be long until you're happy with your EQT purchase-point. :-)

Haha. Glad you clarified yourself there, RB40. I was about to pile in with an egg-sucking advisory questioning why you'd be interested in Sensyne when their SP is clearly inflated on speculation but very little to show in the way of profitable income, unless they have a tremendous IP in their intangible assets. Then realised you were just comparing in our favour.

Good RNS today - this is exactly what I think shareholders want to see; a regular drip feed of news. The more positive the better, of course !
I've said it before, but I'm convinced DVRG is on the launchpad, and news of signing a few more "Detroits" will send this upwards sharply. And then stick at a higher price because income is based on 3-year agreements. I think the wider market is simply waiting for confirmation of customer spending on similar contracts, or the next trading update confirming reliable income. Very good for those in at the current price. And relief for those who may be snagged on a loss from earlier spike. Definitely holding.
