slight reframe of 13:19, antha; i think cloudtag partly illustrates how much
weight one should place on stock market regulation, vs other factors. CTAG
*was* regulated while on AIM, not unregulated, and all this still happened.

cheers dreamboat.

hi awba, are you a holder here yourself?

your 14th april post seemed to suggest not (e,g with the
‘birds-eye’ reference), but i may have misunderstood.

vik, main purposes of these share boards simply mild entertainment and
occasionally a few learning points (certainly no use for investment advice!),
so it suits me ok. cloudtag has displayed some interesting twists and turns.

all posters in the same boat on lse chatboards, chippyj, no real way to
verify what peeps say about holdings / shorts in any share. (although
easy enough to see if someone is consistent over time). so up to you
what you choose to believe or not, fine by me. c99 asked me about my
investment history here, & wasn’t particularly rude, so i was happy enough
to answer, and again, not my issue whether he accepts my answer or not.

? did you buy any more shares from
amit (or his pals) after the delist?

? hubba, what “cards” do you think i am not showing?

… you’ve said before that you believe i am short CTAG, & that I
have some kind of connection with tom winnifrith / share-pups.

neither are true, as i’ve said before. ? - do you have some other
kind of ‘card’ in mind, & if so, what? … curious re your logic, tia!

? & what about you, c99, what’s the
history of your investment here?

hi c99, nope, i have never had any position
at all in cloudtag, neither long nor short.

for me, it is simply an interesting situation to watch.

(fyi, i think dreamboat was addressing antha’s 10:32)

nice enough crawl back up that mid-march
slope, with divi in pocket to chew on if peckish.

[oops, sorry, meant of course katie holmes … parapraxis…]

cloudy continues his hints that apple are involved.

far more likely imv to be disney, elon musk, warren buffet, the vatican,
norwegian sovereign fund, the illuminati or auric goldfinger. but i think
the most likely buyer will be the church of scientology, so that they can
use amit’s secret DaaP tech to assist with their soul ‘auditing’. …which
would mean of course that tom cruise would take over as CEO, once
the secret underground laboratory hidden under that little volcano
near the cayman islands is revealed. me, i would vote katie beckinsale
to be CFO, but sadly [spoiler alert] i have no voting rights in cloudtag.

19:51, yup.

added.

hi Rktech, yes, not long until there is some additional clarity. long overdue.

if it’s the positive outcome holders are hoping for, i.e. amit genuinely has
sold stuff for a chunk and is distributing that, presumably that should be a
pretty clear-cut unambiguous outcome. (but if sceptics such as myself are
right, then i rather doubt there would be any clear statement from cloudtag
acknowledging that, more likely there would simply be some more waffle
and delay, but no admission of game over). good luck and all the best
to all who have been both polite and honest (yourself, for example!).

re 22:51 yesterday, i think amit is rather too thick skinned to care
about such issues. his reputation is already very well toasted, and
the entire history of ctag & all those dud promises is already utterly
ridiculous. ? if those kind of things bothered him significantly, surely
the last decade or so with ctag just wouldn’t have happened, would it?

… some possibilities re the may 5th carrot dangle…

1. it’s all completely true, and amit will indeed shortly
despatch big fat cheques to all pi holders via flying pigs
taking off from that secret runway in the malaysian jungle.

2. it’s a way to kick the can yet again, to placate certain folks
who might otherwise attempt legal action to recover monies
they’d handed over for the pre-IPO that didn’t happen, etc.

3. it’s a way to entice pis into handing over yet more money, either thro’
an offer to top-up on supposedly cheap extra shares, billed as a FOMO/
greed ‘last chance!!’ to top up before the company / assets / IP are sold,
or through requests for admin / legal payments to release ‘deal’ funds.

over the years plenty of millenarian-style cults have found it useful to put
very specific dates into their predictions for followers. such specificity can
add an additional feel of credibility and urgency to motivate cult members,
and yet such cults still manage to retain most of their followers even when
those very specific predictions don’t come true on the promised date.

etc. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doomsday_cult

i bought a few today out of sheer pity.

it’s your money dan, but stefan’s return yet another enormous
bright red flag imv. game #3 the most likely one next imv, so
that might generate enough volume to exit on. good luck!

to be fair to stefan and his mates, they did manage to make a lot of money
for themselves last time round, so it’s not that illogical for the insiders to
give him another go, as they will presumably be hoping he can conjure up
another pump for them to dump into. but awful history of sustained value
destruction for ordinary pis under his tenure, who should beware again, imo.

historically ADME seems to have played three main games to set up a spike:

1. look, a very rich cornerstone investor has bought in, he’s a really
good omen! (most obviously, when the dubious sheikh was brought in).

2. look, we’ve cleverly managed to buy into /are about to buy into an
obscure asset that no-one else thinks is actually worth much, but it
is going to be a real company maker (e.g. marginal fields, barracuda)

3. oh look, someone is about to buy our stake in aje from us, so that’s going
to make ADME loads of money soon (- most obviously, when ADME, under
stefan as CEO, boasted that aje was going to be sold to GPDC, which spiked
the share price, & enabled certain individuals to dump just ahead of a large
placing, after which the GPDC ‘bid’ simply melted away & the s/p sank again.)

if i remember correctly, randy connally was also involved (via NCT /MYN)
in talking up MXO back when that phantom bid from GPDC was being touted
around. ? the other new ADME director is probably in at randy’s request?

(…worth looking back over the appalling history of value destruction
for ordinary pis at NCT / MYN while randy was running that show, to
get a sense of what a mate of randy’s might bring to the ADME party.)

will need to rebalance p/f weightings slightly circa 13,000,
but that would be a nice problem to reach if we get there.
