You missed out the likelihood of a placing ahead of anything else. Mind you, the bookies probably didn't give you odds on that did they?

That's worryingly twisted logic - 'my net worth remains unchanged as long as I don't sell at a loss' is a bit like the child who covers his eyes and declares that if he can't see you, then you can't see him.

Try using your VAL shares as collateral and see what reply you get...

I think he means the mcap of Replimune after its latest knock back, relative to SCLP as its science looks now.

49 quid for a phone call is taking the proverbial, especially for a task that will take them a matter of seconds and get them some commission anyway.

I presume the 'carrot' of an impending 'milestone' will be dangled slightly further down the timescale than the stick of a placing. Expect a few more fluffy RNSs full of forward looking statements (which, if you read the caveats on the RNSs) are completely non-binding anyway.

Let me guess - one will be about attending a really really prestigious conference, another will be some Memorandum of Understanding involving a small company nobody has heard of with 1 employee, no money and PO Box head office, and then perhaps the formation of yet another wholly-owned subsidiary to investigate reformulating a 1990s failed treatment for asthma in woodlice, to repurpose into something to prevent obesity in anorexics.

At least Violindog makes posts based on a genuine opinion, whereas Ripley just seems to spout generic misery across various boards as a daily bot-like resumé. Read his posts and watch a troll shotgun in action.

Never mind 'I very much doubt if upsetting an uninvested trader ranks highly on his concerns' - from an impartial point of view I'd say 'I very much doubt if upsetting an invested trader ranks highly on his concerns.'

I think Notafullshilling has missed the ending off - it's similar to the Mr Ben cartoons of some years ago and goes 'Just then, a bucket shop owner appeared, and all of a sudden Mr Ben found himself in a death spiral.' "I need to consolidate again" thought Mr Ben, "but then it not as if that's a new experience."

Back down into the 0.2s, dropping towards the last placing price now - is that some forward selling or just the more prudent bailing out ahead of disaster?

Make your mind up violindog. Either everything leaks or 'sometimes it happens.' You can't have it all ways, however pessimistic you want to look.

Is it possible a buyout is in the offing where the new owners need the scientists but not the accountants from their acquisition and Sath has been allowed to move on before his redundancy?

Basically none of us have any idea, it's all guesswork depending on levels of optimism or cynicism but the hand of Redmile and the USA seem interestingly prominent.

Just a pity they're running out of fuel for the boilers and having to ask the passengers for anything combustible, while the captain is in the ship's casino and apparently not winning a thing.

'The ship has struck an iceberg and will sink within the hour, it is holed below the waterline' said Porky Lightoller to Captain Notpotalot Smith.

'Rubbish' said Smith, it will never sink.'

An hour later Smith ran to Lightoller in triumph - 'See? We're still afloat, just as I said, and you were wrong in your prediction. I am a maritime genius, but before I celebrate this great victory I must change my socks as the water level has risen and the bridge is awash. But no matter, we shall sail on. Tell the passengers that prosperity awaits them. The fact almost all of them are deeply underwater and only the funnels are clear of the waves is simply a passing inconvenience. The ship didn't sink in the time Lightoller predicted so all must be good.'

Notpotalot - stop being such a misleading ramper please. The new address is jus an accommodation address so stop pretending it's an indication of prosperity.

'It’s important to remember that whilst the Registered Office address will be our London address, your business won’t physically be based here.'

'When major grant or other income news is confirmed' the funds will come by cheque, delivered by Lord Lucan on Shergar. This will be a more secure method than the offshore 60 million quid fervently talked about by the faithful which was being delivered in cash aboard flight MH370.

I imagine a placing will come with some reassurance about finances allowing the company to be in a stronger position in upcoming negotiations. It will be followed by silence from the 'crew' who will then tell us how Val has never before been in such a strong position etc etc and how the placing was actually a really good move and not to make a big deal about it because everyone does it....

This is exactly what rampers do before a placing too - two inordinately long posts waffling on about what might or could happen, ignoring that even in the incredibly unlikely best-case scenario these aspirations will take years and vast amount of expenditure, and a little post saying 'I've just spent 500 quid buying shares', without adding 'very soon those shares will be worth about 300 quid.'

It sounds like someone looking at Silverstone and saying 'I'm going to race a car round there' and all his mates saying 'that'll be brilliant, can't wait', ignoring the fact he doesn't own a car and hasn't got enough cash to pay for his competitions licence and will have to ask his mates to sub him, same as he has a dozen times before.

I wonder if Dr Dilly will buy at the next placing, her being a director of Valiseek and all.

Be honest uxm, your predictions don't have a good track record on a brief look - Renx on 3rd November last year you said - 'This will almost certainly go up from here at some point so a decent buy. Most buyers at 9.5 so they are unlikely to sell here.'

It's now around 2.5p.

More pertinent to Valirx - today you said 'Decent doubler in the coming weeks.' So let's have a look at just one of your previous predictions for Val - on 26th November 2024, with the share price at 1.675p, you said 'Breaking out. I can see this being a 5 million market cap in the coming days so 200-300% rise.'

Two weeks later on 9th December there was a placing at 0.65p. Is history about to repeat itself, or are you just ramping blindly?

Kagefc - RayPointer has replied because he is me. Or I am him. I forget which, but I'm sure one of your circle will know.
