I'm not saying it's "OK" but regardless it's a lot easier if you both just agree to not have a go at each other as you're both on the same side.

You're both on the same side you two. Chill out.
This always happens at the lows, people get grumpy and turn on each other, it's unnecessary.
Most stocks have been hammered in the past two weeks.

Factom's one of the ones I'm more confident on but they're a big beast and wouldn't expect to see them signing up lots of little customers. They're going for big beasts which take longer to arrange and get into fruition but could be massive when they happen.

It's usually a good sign when the really bad trolls like mr multibag turn up.

They usually appear very poorly educated, can barely spell or put together a logical argument, and tend to turn up near the lows on a share, probably when their boss wants to buy in, under instruction to try to scaremonger and get them a better price.

I would imagine it's probably a local job-avoider from the estate where some old bank robber pretending to be a broker resides.

Yeah, in crashes you always end up with lots of people all going nuts, and you get the smarter ones knowing that things usually come back up when it all blows over.

A trader called Alessio Rastani achieved notoriety when he did a BBC interview in the 2011 crash saying:
"I have a confession - I go to bed every night and I dream of another recession, I dream of another moment like this."
and
"For most traders, we don't really care that much how they're going to fix the economy, how they're going to fix the whole situation."..........'Our job is to make money from it."

This irritated a lot of people but it's true......big dips are usually big opportunities.

It's kinda good that we've not had more news released yet.
Let's face it. World financial markets are being hammered and AIM is no different and usually gets it even worse.

Hopefully the end isn't too far off now and we can get a nice rally for old Santa.

"The 9 mill would not have been a profit related dividend it would have been a special dividend . It would have create a whole new wave of interest as unheard of on aim"

It's unheard of on AIM because it wouldn't happen. It's nonsensical. It would tank the price. You'd be taking the majority of the value out of the company and giving it to existing holders who would be rushing to beat each other to sell out en masse because the value left in the company would be instantly massively less. That would be total madness. The only interest generated on AIM would be laughing at the silliest decision they could make. Thankfully they didn't.

Why did he gift stock? Perhaps he thought they'd do very well from it in future. You'd have to ask him. It's clutching at straws to see a gift to charity as the worst thing in the world.

Don't even know what your news point is. Doesn't really make any sense. They do need to do more to promote their investments though, in presentations, interviews, and RNSs when appropriate. If that's your point then I agree and have said the same before.

I don't need to prove anything. Go read the annual reports. See how much the directors earn here. Compare it to other AIM companies. You'll find they'll be amongst the lowest paid not the highest.

We've been over this before.......
Giving a dividend would have been mental and tanked the price for anyone who chose to hold the shares.
The CEO giving away some of his own shares to a charity isn't a bad thing unless you're a selfish sod.
Reacting to shareholders concerns and issuing an RNS is also not a bad thing.
They're not paying themselves millions.....in fact by AIM standards they're probably one of the lowest paid BoDs.

So basically the thing that was a POS was your post!

Errr.....don't feed the troll either!

(woops)

Don't feel the troll.

Looks like it's another day of market wobbles with most things down.

I wouldn't say it was bearish.
This "news" had been hyped up by the usual suspects and whilst decent enough was unlikely to result in any fireworks.
I don't think the general stock market bearishness has massively affected this either (a bit no doubt but not hugely), as you say this has held up relatively well.
It's the lack of news that you mention which is the key issue here.
They could do a lot more to highlight why each of the investments is so good, what progress is being made, particularly on the less vocal ones like Yooya, and start selling the story to punters. Instead of dead silence and retweeting things everyone already knows.
AIM is a fickle beast, and some promotion, detail for people to get their teeth into and be reassured by, can do wonders. Rather than leaving punts to feel in the dark, get grumpy, and sell.
The investments may well be doing well but they need to pull their finger out and start acting in shareholders interests by promoting the stable. Otherwise the ship just looks like it's drifting backwards and rats jump ship even if the cargo has been getting more valuable.

Don't say that......some foul-mouthed so-and-so will call you rude names!

Can you predict an update on the portfolio ;)
A presentation too would be nice.......with some meat on the bones rather than less information than we could get from a two minute Google.

Just the same as the SALV one parroting an Intensity press release.

Update on Intensity released.

Stranger things have happened.

100k buy and a tick up.
There you go ;)

I'd be surprised if they did issue an update specifically for this.
However there's plenty they could update us on and probably should soon!

:)

Always good to have proof of the demand for drugs in this field, and that looks significantly earlier stage, and yet to be proven (to my layman eye). In contrast to the LOXL2 programme which the Pharmaxis CEO describes as offering:
"best in class LOXL2 inhibition" following the phase 1 clinical trials, and with a second compound scheduled to report trial results in the current quarter, could get even stronger.
