Roundtable Discussion; The Future of Mineral Sands. Watch the video here.
Not the set of RNS I was expecting to come first, but positive none the less. Now where is the STAR trial RNS, which everyone have been waiting for.
Last time we had a rapid set of positive RNS, we got hit by a placing, now what is it going to be.
I was trying to top-up today on Halifax and I was shown an annual management Charge of 4.7% which I had never seen before along with the usual dealing charges. Does anyone know what this is, and how does this deduction work.
Some significant buys have gone through after 3.30. Hopefully we have news incoming. It's been a long wait.
To be honest for me the disastrous home trial interview was a blessing in disguise, as it has helped me average down right now at a time when I had some funds luckily available.
If we do end up progressing to phase 3 especially after RM focussing so much on outpatient treatment for the very breathless category, I really can't complain. Time will tell if it was a good decision for me to top up further at this juncture.
I seriously hope the Activ 2 guys can recognise this. If their objective is to keep people out of hospital and help speedy recovery, then they already have something in their hands which may help with this. They just need to focus on the right category of the very breathless patients who are more likely to land up in hospital.
It would be a real shame if they were to let go of us, just because the drug did not have any significant efficacy on the very mild group under Phase 2. Fingers crossed they will be much more sensible.
Sounded very upbeat which is good to hear.
At around 6:25 he seemed to suggest that they are looking at carrying out an outpatient trial on the 10% or so very breathless category not hospitalised world wide. Presumably they are looking at another expanded home trial or was he hinting at Activ 2 which may expand to worldwide sites under Phase 3 but with a focus just on the breathless category? Would be brilliant if it is the latter.
Another set of large trades late this evening which could well be buys.

18-May-21 16:23:00 7.20 200,000 Sell* 14.40k O
18-May-21 16:21:02 7.20 30,000 Sell* 2,160 O
18-May-21 16:19:03 7.20 172,024 Sell* 12.39k
Looking at all these large trades over the two days, it seems like there was a 6m sell at 7p by one seller and all of these have been lapped up at 7.20, 7.40, etc. by another buyer or buyers.
The MMs would have dropped the bid even lower than 7p if what looks like sell was actually a sell order on top of the 3 X 2m sells.
Definitely one of the buyer or seller will soon regret their action.
There have been some fairly large trades of 500k, 350k, etc. All at 7.20p. Could well be all buys rather than sells which are shown if they were offloading at 7.20p as per Parkez's comment. Never seen the spread so low as well if they were ready to buy at 7.195p which is also strange. Do we have both a large buyer and a seller?
There were 2 more 2m trades yesterday evening at 7p. It looks like sells. Not sure what to make of it, but has surprised me slightly. Anyone with any ideas on what is going on?
This situation is definitely of concern to me especially with two young kids. A good friend of mine who is Indian has had a lot of his family and relatives infected back in India, including young kids which worries me a lot, and they weren't even going to school there.
I still can't believe how reckless the UK government was and still is with border controls. Their excuse for not having data is inexcusable, all it needed was common sense to see what was happening, which is sadly very much missing. Not sure what they were trying to achieve by not acting hard immediately when the first signs of increasing infections in India emerged but they will end up looking penny wise and pound foolish eventually if they have to backtrack on easing lockdown rules.
