The latest Investing Matters Podcast episode featuring Jeremy Skillington, CEO of Poolbeg Pharma has just been released. Listen here.
Dan, I admire your patience, but am also baffled by your loyalty to this share. S shurely there are better bets out there in the investment universe? (but good luck in any case, you’ve always been a polite and reasoned/adult pi on this chatboard.)
“… given that they [the agent] are currently sat on $50 million waiting to be paid out …”
but that is precisely the snag — as it is **not** a “given” at all, since there is zero independently verifiable evidence in the public domain, at least so far as i am aware, to evidence that any such agent exists, or (far more importantly!), whether that $50 million exists.
for sure, cloudtag has made such claims, but unverified claims don’t make it a “given”, imv.
(very happy to see any such evidence i may have missed if anyone can highlight such, and of course to then change my views accordingly.)
I’m not sure why people keep talking about the UK’s SFO in relation to cloudtag … since cloudtag is **not** a UK company … if it is indeed still registered anywhere, going from its own website, then cloudtag is registered in st vincent.
the SFO is part of the criminal justice system for england, wales and northern ireland, but its own powers and scope to investigate and prosecute do not extend over private unlisted companies listed in st vincent. (and so far as i can see, there is no meaningful evidence that cloudtag is actually ‘operating’within the UK in any meaningful sense? - but happy to see any evidence to the contrary that anyone can produce.)
… the UK’s SFO *does* potentially have a role in *assisting* an overseas jurisdiction investigating certain kinds of crime (in serious/complex fraud/financial) in their own area, but that would usually be in response to a request from a relevant body in that overseas body for the UK SFO to assist them, e.g. via an MLA (mutual legal assistance) request from an overseas jurisdiction.
… so with that in mind, if anybody wants to try to argue that there may be a fraud case to investigate or prosecute, surely it would be more appropriate for concerns to be raised with the regulatory body in st vincent, and then, *IF* they wanted to pursue that matter [… which seems pretty unlikely to me … ], st vincent could make an MLA request to the SFO?
Whispering 16:07: “I heard Amit invested c2 million of his own funds…”
? and is there any independently verifiable, public domain evidence to support that?
… it would be far more interesting imv to know just how much money amit has taken *out* of cloudtag over the last 8 years or so ….but i don’t think amit’s going to provide any independently verifiable answer to that.
Offer, re 15:28, personally i don’t believe richard is a conspiracy theory loon at all, i think he is just a parody poster, pretending (tho’ lord knows why!) — I think his 15:55 rather gives the game away. jmv.
B1ll, kind of you to make me a two-way price on stretchie, but i’m happy just to book it that you’ve hit me on my bid side at 21.21….. so he does turn up around the time range you’ve got in mind, then you’ll have won circa 50 mins from the bet with me!
Perhaps. but i am not so convinced that the st vincent authorities have a particularly strong track record in relation to such matters - and they are, presumably, the relevant body?
Antha 14:43: “Everything will be revealed one day I’m sure.”
? do you really think so, antha? - me, i think that’s highly unlikely.
12:47, james, don’t mention sexual desserts to mr_w or the chat might get a bit too spicy for admin’s taste, as it were. we’ve already heard about kitchen exploits before.
