Good on you, Midas! I would if I could... Was that you in at 6.83?! Your holding is surely going to be worth a fortune.

I've still got well over 500k, but at a depressingly high average price. (I mean, it's probably 25% lower than NAV, but...)

... have exactly 3x the number of trades as comments.

Oh wait... damn!!

Have lovely weekends everyone. Buy buy for now.

TheWorks is so clever and so strong. Sometimes I feel intimidated, but he's so gentle and wise as well. What a guy...

"The idiom at sixes and sevens means in a state of complete disarray and confusion, in a complete mess... At sixes and sevens may also mean a state of disagreement between two or more people. The term goes back at least to the 1300s."

Right, OK TheWorks... I guess you just sold 25k then?! Fair point well made, just now, in that case!

Never a truer word spoken. I closed my eyes when I saw a shooting star this morning, and wished and wished that we'd get the works this week... but instead we've got TheWorks!

(Nah, I'm joking. It's lovely to see you. Bing bong.)

I know it's not real... but a nice visual to see the trade listings shown as a FULL page of sells!!

I sense it's going to be another tremendously exciting week.

St. T. Nope. The BLU was also sold too. It went for a smidge over £300k, so Lorne managed to lose over a third of the profit on SatoshiPay in about three months....

It's tough to take on board O'Donnell's "if you don't have anything nice to say..." and respond re. SatoshiPay!

It was sold off myseteriously by Lorne for FFWD (in 2017?) while Jim Mellon was increasing his personal holding in SatoshiPay and giving the market confidence in it. This was long before I was invested in FFWD, so I'm going from research I've done since coming in. It could all be wrong and not indicate the Abonys have always helped the Mellons of this world to hedge their own holdings / manipulate prices at particular points. At least we're Abonyless now, right...?

O'Donnell - see you in Wetherspoons, Friday!

Isn't the SP just deflated because of low liquidity and some big sells going through...? Whereas there are clearly some big buys about to be filled??

(Not that I'm saying I've got a huge order that is about to be filled...!!)

Well O'Donnell, I have just made a Strong Buy, (relatively speaking). Only 27.5k, but it means straight back into the overdraft after first pay cheque of the new job.

Forward, the Light Brigade... and all that!!

Is it that odd, Midas...?
(1) it is repeatedly said on this BB that we are waiting for the Leap sale
(2) the SP will not move significantly until the Leap sale
(3) we all complain that Leap is taking too long
(4) let's pretend, for the sake of a hypothetical, that Lorne is in the loop as to likely sale date

If he were being a devious little devil, and had access to all of Chrystal Capital's industry knowledge as well (via his role as Chair of Yooma), wouldn't it make sense for him to suggest to Mama that she sell SEED now, put her money into Yooma / Peridot / Change Agronomy (or whatever)... then buy back in to SEED before Christmas? There's not going to be more than a 10-15% shift in SP until we hear about Leap, and Mama Abony can surely make a better return elsewhere in a few months. We all could... except without the inside knowledge of when Leap will send the SP through the roof, we can't risk it. Right?!

Chystal Capital aren't exactly helping, either. They've been chasing me to invest directly in Change Agronomy, while the stock response is...

"Well Chrystal, all my liquid funds are in SEED, and you've just assisted the chairman of Yooma - one of your clients - to sell a huge tranche of shares in SEED so I'm currently underwater... and the SP would bounce back quicker if you hadn't just poached SEED's CEO to become a director of Peridot, the private fund you've set up for someone like Jim Mellon or Jeremy Agace. Why haven't I had an update on Northern Leaf's IPO, which is still apparently on track for this year...!?"

Lorne told me he could push my mum's buttons, too. Glad he's gone, the greasy mo-fo...

The Parable of the Mustard Seed

Then He said, “To what shall we liken the kingdom of God? Or with what parable shall we picture it? It is like a mustard SEED which, when it is sown on the ground, is smaller than any SEED on earth; but when it is sown, it grows up and becomes greater than all herbs, and shoots out large branches, so that the birds of the air may nest under its shade.”

We've seen these start to hot up a bit recently. I've just noticed LSE's number of trades for today drop from 25 to 24. Are any of us free users missing sight of large UTs or similar? I think Friday's 200k buy was pretty opaque at the time as well.

If the big boys are trying to buy on the sly.... things must be about to fly!

Nice to see us at 7.6 mid market... though utterly bewildering as to why. There must be something chunky in the pipeline...

Thanks, O'Donnell.

There was once an investor named Scooby
who dreamt of diamonds and rubies
but he forsook his greed
for a big slice of SEED
in the hope he'd at least get a dooby.

(You're welcome)

Cheers - will do - after work. I had to get a new job instead of living off SEED like I'd planned... but I'm now doing finances for a wood mill and it's almost exactly like Twin Peaks. As soon as the new bank mandate has been signed off, I'm tempted to hold all our working capital in SEED (before getting brutally murdered or losing my mind...)

Ouch! Sorry, Mat, it was a metaphor about Lorne... although I hear that stones are hereditary so I do have them to look forward to in future!

(I did think about getting in touch to compare notes on what we think is happening behind the scenes, though. I'm equally not quite 100% but have a theory - and it does mean a rosy outcome... I was going to go back through your clues first, of course.)
