Can understand the frustration. While I am still up I've "lost" £60k since our peak price.
It really is a game of belief now. The markets don't have confidence in covid stocks, we believe Novacyt is significantly more than a covid stock and that there are huge orders and deals in the background.
But then all we see is talk of Lamp/LFT as the share prices drifts back down.
I still have faith in Novacyt, but that'd easy to say when I am still in profit. If itd invested at £11 plus these daily drops would be harder to take.
And another one

We will only grow on facts and figures from here on in. OK we are still undervalued but that's based on what we believe has been agreed and what will happen. The valuation is no longer a total embarrassment as it was.
I can't see us or other Covid stocks growing without confirmed revenue and profits from here.
It will come, we just need patience
(Nova is holding up ok today, other covid stocks are taking a fair hit)
"The evaluation found that the test performed best when used by laboratory scientists when the sensitivity was 79% (156/197 positive: 79.2% (95% confidence interval 72.8% to 84.6%)).
Sensitivity dropped to 73% when used by trained healthcare staff (92/126 positive: 73.0% (64.3% to 80.5%)) and to 58% with self-trained members of the public (214/372 positive: 57.5% (52.3% to 62.6%))"

We know this and have discussed it many times on here.
But blumin heck even the BMJ - Highly respected British Medical Journal
Why do governments insist on using this inaccurate stuff and put lives at risk
"However, experts warn that the tests may miss as many as half of covid-19 cases, depending on who is using them—making them unsuitable for a “test and release” strategy to enable people to leave lockdown or to allow students to go home from university"

Well noone one was that close in the end!
Rcdm did well with a Monday (post crash) call of being back in the 9s today. We touched on it but don't quite hold out.
(Let's not do this again next week!)
Good summary.
Shows that maybe there is a use for LFT after all. Always baffled me why they were used at all.
But ok PCR is far more sensitive as we know but will detect people with Covid but no longer infectious.
LFT misses a few but only catches it if you are contagious
Cheers Hartlebury and Don,
So are we saying the last genuine sale was 435pm @880p and then all the late trades posted after that are assumed to be sales as the price is equal or below 880p?
But in reality they may not be as the time delay shows different prices will have been available at that time?
Still rude but there we go.
Well who knew the LSE board confirmed trades are incorrect.
Thank you for enlightening me with such eloquence. I won't be responding any further. This is a share bulletin board for information and opinion sharing not pretty arguments
Christ how do people investing in shares not know the most basic question or is an ISA tax free.
No offence to anyone but if you don't know the answer to that I'm not sure you should be investing in stocks
