We would love to hear your thoughts about our site and services, please take our survey here.
Hi Rockz,
I treat my non-fund type investments like rockets, big and small but to be handled much the same. I like to keep shuffling my ‘fuel’ money between them as and when the weather clears or darkens around their launch area, then gauge those that do launch and re-evaluate things at that point. I am typically trying to ‘top slice’ at the top of each higher and higher parabolic flight to load up on other rockets in time for their launch. This tactic has been working out for me so far, although I must admit I don’t want to lighten my largest ever TILS rocket too much just in case it does keep going all the way to Mars! I think, you can sometimes catch a rocket just after launch if you are very lucky, but it usually ends miserably if you try to bail out on an abort mission.
I completely disagree with the comparison of investing with gambling. I like to think that regular research and keeping on top of the relevant news, helps hedge things more in your favour.
I invest across sectors, types, countries etc, and am trying to find stocks that have periods of inverse correlated up/down sp movements, then you can re-balance your portfolio between these at opportune times. You can never have enough spare cash to go around though, and at one point I had far too many different investments which is impossible to manage.
Back to Accustem, I am waiting to research the launch area before I can evaluate that better...
Not trying to be elitist but sitting up here on the moral high ground the World looks like a much better place to me, hoping more can join me - lol. :)
True, and I personally think they took on a bit too much complexity at once, but look at how much has been achieved recently. TILS are in a really good place right now.
The BOD have said in so many ways that they are trying to get onto the emergency Covid trials in the US (and elsewhere), and I for one hope they continue with that effort before these trials close entry to new candidates (which they will inevitably do at some point). What’s more important, satisfying some impatient share holders or SAVING LIVES!!!
The impatience on this board, both real and staged!, beggars belief.
The BOD are aiming at Q1 for the Accustem listing and if anyone hasn’t noticed we still have a few weeks left. Save your TILS bashing until after April 1st!!!
Anyone who claims to be selling their TILS stock at the current time is either highly mis-informed, crazy, or lying through their teeth. In my opinion...
Dr. KS has said several times that Foralumab, and their PATENTED and first of its kind nanoparticle/nano-body nasal inhalation tech for mAbs can be used to treat other pulmonary affecting viruses including SARS, MERS, ...and Flu. Here is an abstract and link below where research studies have shown a boost of 10 to 50 times in the effectiveness in this route for dosing, albeit with a slightly different kind of mAb. The TILS nasal tech, on its own, is simply worth Billions, and recently proven beyond doubt to work.
Abstract
Effective and reliable anti-influenza treatments are acutely needed and passive immunizations using broadly neutralizing anti-influenza monoclonal antibodies (bNAbs) are a promising emerging approach. Because influenza infections are initiated in and localized to the pulmonary tract, and newly formed viral particles egress from the apical side of the lung epithelium, we compared the effectiveness of hemagglutinin (HA) stalk-binding bNAbs administered through the airway (intranasal or via nebulization) versus the systemic route (intraperitoneal or intravenous). Airway deliveries of various bNAbs were 10- to 50-fold more effective than systemic deliveries of the same bNAbs...

What government/health authority wouldn’t want this new dosing technology for mAbs in its drawer!? Plus! How often have you thought you will never get another common cold when, wham!, you have the worst cold you ever had, ...because the common cold, which is another type of coronavirus, has mutated, again!? So much for all the money spent on anti-terrorism over the years, governments have one main item on their agenda right now and it’s very much biological!

Yes, the MMs continue with their psychological sheep herding tactics, and often attack anyone on this board that show any insight. I get the feeling that real investors on this board are a rare breed. I feel I have strayed into the middle of a battlefield between MM/ii rampers and MM/ii derampers. Real investors have to avoid the mud slinging and multi-false ID psychological messaging that goes on here between the two sides. It’s a strange market where the customer is just treated like cannon fodder. I feel the markets may just hollow out over time filled with the banks injecting liquidity to keep the few older baby boomers and all the scared ii’s going as they look for vanishing returns... Just my opinion as a non-expert.
:(
p.s. I continued to add to my TILS and SNG stock at bargain prices, amongst others. :)
@Foxykiwi
Cheers for the not so nice choice of words, along with inferring things that I never said! It’s attitude like yours that kill well meaning debate and discussion. ‘Nuff said’!
Wow, cheers Pedro99. My first few posts here as well.
:)
Last thoughts and then I will shut up:
Often when I talk to friends and family about actively managing their future wealth I hear complaints that it’s all rigged and unfair. That sums up the millennials ingrained sense of fairness. From my point of view the more investors the better for everyone. The MMs have had it good for a long time but now they need to get the younger generation on board, by cleaning up their act. The baby boomers are sailing into the sunset, Brexit has seriously dented the city traders profits, IMO they have to do a few things to survive:
A. Convince the millennials that investing is not a con-game through a more transparently fair system.
B. Convince the government to give every millennial a boost to their pension pot via larger tax breaks for under 25s - many have earned so little over the last few years and we all know how little is made from a small pot to start with, which really doesn’t encourage them.
C. Include basic investing in the school curriculum.
This would be a win-win: more, interested, happy, retail investors, less us v them RobinHood/Gamestop type events, and a non-imploding market in the future.
I can but dream...
*** MMs: I NEVER use stop-losses so don’t bother trying! ***
Perhaps the AIM trading system needs re-working then to be more transparent, if only to attract more retail investors. Does anyone know how often those rules & regulations are reviewed? Surely market forces and buys/sells should be the only determining factor for setting the next days price, irrespective of how the MMs take their cut. Blatant price manipulation will just become more and more of an issue for more and more investors and will be self-defeating. Why have a price down to several decimal places and not use that precision in the pricing? Are MMs allowed to round down in the regulations?
p.s. is there an organisation that looks into improvements on behalf of retail investors?

We all need to find our inner Zen! Never easy.

Thanks Rokerpark68, wise words, so perhaps I have enough in TILS now and won’t sell that surplus graphene stock next week..., but those TILS price drops get so tempting...
:s
*** MMs: I NEVER use stop-losses so don’t bother trying! ***
I noticed something some time ago:
Take any 30-40 LSE stocks, and every day 1-3 will have a 0% price increase...
But wait, look more closely and that’s after hundreds/thousands of trades, and not 0% but 0.00% to the hundredth of a percent! That’s mathematical and statistical proof of price manipulation whichever way you look at it. The only excuse I have had is that it’s down to the trading algorithms and possibly there’s a rounding factor, but surely that’s just simply theft, albeit in pennies, but across all the stocks and shares and millions of trades, theft is still theft! So much for pure market forces.
*** MMs: I NEVER use stop-losses so don’t bother trying! ***
It just occurred to me that MM’s may be plying these boards for the harvesting of investors average pricing for their stop-loss raids. So a strap line may be useful:

Oh, also, as someone literally born into the computer age, I know only too well how years of staring at screens causes dry-eye and Blepharitis problems, which is OKYO’s main play. With everyone and his/her dog now spending many more hours on-line, in front of screens etc, this just explodes the use-case for better dry-eye/anti-inflammation drops. That sparkle may be hiding a larger gem underneath - LOL

Hi Satellite,
My thoughts, for what it’s worth:
I am also a LTH of OKYO, with nearly as many shares as TILS, and I am not selling any for the foreseeable future. My reasoning is as follows:
Most people will/will have used eye-drops at some point in their lives.
Eye-drops can be found in every chemists in the World, are easy to transport and store.
Simply put: the business case for a single working formulation is huge.
Plus, with the recent Covid related anti-inflammatory RNS, OKYO along with TILS are trying to attack inflammation from every kind of angle. I am no expert, but I do know that it is rare for outright cures for disease to be found, so finding better ways to fight the damaging affects of disease, the main culprit being inflammation, is the logical approach. My wife suffers from Lupus, and I know first hand how painful and absolutely crippling a flare up of inflammation can be for her. (Lupus being yet another one of the possible treatment arms for Foralumab by the way.) I see OKYO as a longer investment than TILS, although KS did state that it was relatively quick to get results from trials of eye-drops which should help speed things along.
So another smaller gem in the collection just starting to sparkle. I would also recommend Plant Health Care: PHC

Hi,
In the interview KS gave with RedChip re: the Covid play, he said that they were waiting for the full results before creating a ‘perfect plan’ that they would publish (along with the results). There could be something brewing in the background related to the contacts gained from the onboarding of the Regeneron CMO (Regeneron would want the absolutely invaluable nasal/inhaler/oral dosing tech for their own mAb drugs like so many others!). However, it does seem that many of the BOD are perfectionists, and just prefer to take the time to get things right. IMO that just fills me with confidence. Day traders can go elsewhere.
Regards,
Cheers Foolsandhorses
Yes I am ‘patiently’ waiting for my Accustem as acknowledged in various messages from my broker ii, both for my SSIP and my ISA. I am in no rush.
:)
This is my first ever post and I will not post very often because I have no time for all the trolls and plain and simple abuse that inflict these kind of boards.
I am a long term holder, average price of 91p now after, as someone else said, I have been slowly selling more and more stocks to increase my TILS holding. I am an IT Pro but studied enough science at school to recognise that the TILS portfolio (inc. non-Covid) is simply breathtaking in it’s recently de-risked potential. Uniquely I have never sold any TILS shares, I have only bought more, now over 50k, the most shares I have ever owned of one stock. I have a large set of investor friends and have been keeping them informed on progress, I hope other LTH are doing the same. The more we spread the word that can only be good for all of us. I’ll just finish with a few statements: I will say that in my 15 years now of active investing I have never found such a gem of an investment as TILS. I believe in the BOD and that they will not betray the loyalty of their investors. I am also emotionally invested as my father died from Covid in the first wave, and my mother very nearly died and still suffers from long covid/dementia effects - for which perhaps foralumab may help in future as a broad spectrum anti-inflammatory. Lastly, I find some of the posts on this board bordering on illegality - e.g. mention of fraud! This just makes me angry. I applaud everyone who helps to highlight these posts. Keep up the good work!
