From today's leading article in the Daily Telegraph:

'Lord Hague urges the Government to "prepare for testing on a truly massive scale" as advocated by Tony Blair's Institute for Global Change," involving millions of tests every week as people enter the country, arrive at work, attend conferences or just decide to go out" . While the cost would run into billions, it would be far cheaper than a new lockdown he argues.'

C-19 is not going away any time soon and the need for testing will continue long after we get back to anyhting approaching normal. Indeed testing may be the key to getting back to "normal"

Can't find this recommendation on IC's website (I am a subscriber both print and on line). I have a lot of time for Simon Thompson. He puts in a lot of research before publication.

Was this an Alpha report, for which you need a separate subscription?

Johnson at PMQs says the Commons will hear more about test and trace tomorrow

Many US company announcement are made after the close. Would that account for today's rise?

In to win - I'm with HL and could set a limit sell order today and cancel it first thing Monday before trading starts if there is a big RNS at 7am. Your broker may have the same facility.

If this is Jeremy Warner of the Telegraph, he wrote an article yesterday saying we need to up our game on testing. https://www.*********.co.uk/business/2020/05/19/ruinous-depression-awaits-dont-game-testing/. (The missing bit is telegraph). I wrote to him suggesting he investigate Avacta. Cause & effect?

Me too. Did so before going out. Come back to see price lower. Typical!

Have seen suggestions that if lockdown is eased we should all check our temperature before going to work. Surely much better to use AVCT's saliva based instant test! So long as Cytiva approve and can manufacture quickly it's got to be a no-brainer.

TRy NEX?

May be in anticipation of tomorrow's trading statement

"Nanoco’s (NANO) board has confirmed it is in discussions to sell the company. The nano-material group has appointed adviser Evercore to help with the process and is undertaking a strategic review to examine its options. Shares are up 7 per cent on the news. Buy."

Yes, but MM's can manipulate how trades are perceived. Eg - trade at .116 when spread is .11 to .12 will show as a buy. But if MMs move offer up to .123 or above while leaving bid at .11, it will show as a sell.

.1545 paid and bid/offer moved up to .145/.155

Does anyone know the time of the Presidential announcement/signing ceremony?

Well done. Any chance of a prediction for tomorrow and the rest of the week?

Chancellor just announced he will invest in infrastructure and do more to give private investors confidence to invest alongside government. Good for Sirius?

According to today's Daily Telegraph BA and Shell have submitted a planning application to build a plant to convert waste to fuel, working with Velocys. Surprised no RNS by the company and no impact on the share price!

Not a manufacturer but have a look at Bacanora. Could be on the brink of good things.
