"Only a matter of time before this is taken over by a big player with capital for mass production."
Sad but most probably true.
All sorts of wonderful proposals and ideas across my desk, it seems that the banks are hardly lending at the moment, in the same way that they are not paying much interest on borrowed money. Perhaps they are in a bigger mess than has been fully realised.
I think that it is great!
In this market any positive news is so welcome.
That this project is taking a little longer than many hoped seems irrelevant.
The main thing is that we can make enough product to meet demand and that the management team remains focused.
Perhaps we could do with a few more institutional shareholders.
We have all sorts of opinions here as to the efficacy of our product.
Please is there anyone here who actually uses the machine on a day to day basis.
If there is such a person, please will you be kind and share your thoughts with us all.
With many many thanks, and very best wishes.
As so often happens here, my purchase is shown as a sell as are a few others whose trades must have been buys, they were all at roughly the same time.
Is this discrepancy something to do with the time delay on prices? Say, a share is quoted 95-100p then it falls to 90-95p and someone buys stock at 95p but because the price is still quoted here at 95-100p the computer assumes that the purchase was in fact a sale. I would love to know if this is the reason.
cm22, Of course there will be demand from China, just as there is demand from Britain. My whole point is that the production numbers are too small. When we have a rights issue and are able to scale up the manufacturing this will help no end.
cm22, Of course there is/will be a demand, with the possibility of actually getting a machine being close to zero. Please can you not understand that as matters stand it is impossible to produce anywhere near enough machines to meet world-wide demand? A few thousand units is very small indeed.
cm22, Sorry to disagree with you.
I think that at the moment it is dangerous to be subject to China.
Sadly katstrangler is correct, it is far cheaper to allow Chinese people to drop dead than give them oxygen machines. China today is about money and social rank, no one is particularly going to help the indigent. With a present
manufacturing possibility of but a few thousand units, it would not even begin to address the present needs of the Chinese who could afford to buy the machine in the first place.
I got out of BELL a couple of months ago - or so.
My worry is/was the hook-up with China and the possible knock on in the States.
Whist I am tempted to go back in at these lower levels, I am still rather concerned about US/China relations.
Please, what do others think?
I wonder if the management will eventually get bored with the continuing muted reaction to the positive announcements and decide to have the main share quote in the States or possibly just forget this country altogether.
Perhaps when the product starts getting sold here in Britain they will hire a financial publicist and try to start raising British awareness levels.
I have an investment in another share symbol EDEN. It is a really good business yet the shares languish mainly because they earn their momey abroad and not here, thus very few people are ithat interested in them.
I think that Beluscura should proritise selling in Britain, this should help to bring about more awareness and in so doing enhance the s.p.
Just saying.
theboyg,
'.......this endeavour is a game changer if it is done right'.
To be fair, the management seem to have done pretty well up until now.
Hopefully they will not 'lose it'.
Recently I was talking with a friend in Turkey. In course of our conversation it was mentioned that most of her family have breathing issues and they have to go to hospital and be put on oxygen whenever their situations become critical, normally it takes about thirty-six hours for them to be discharged, even then they require a couple of days of home rest.
When I explained about our machine my friend immediately said "How can we buy them?" Well that would be three or possibly four machines sold just to one family.
If the machine really is as good as we understand it to be, then the market would appear to be virtually limitless.
What exactly is the headline dealing price of 110.00-125.00 telling us?
The market makers are short of stock? If this were the case then they could easily raise the bid price, though this morning they appear to have given 112.50 for a small amount of stock.
Perhaps at the moment there are very few buyers or sellers, so they have widened the headline price to protect themselves.
Please does anybody have anything higher than Level 1, it would be interesting to know how much stock is being offered and at what prices.
Thanks.
theboyg,
So with perfect hindsight the large drop was no more than a really good opportunity to top-up with some cheaper stock.
I thought about it but it was such a large drop that I didn't have the cajones to buy another five thousand.
Maybe you, and others on this board, siezed the opportunity and jumped in.
GLA.

Perhaps the stock was a little overpriced, around 80p would appear to be perfectly reasonable for the moment.
This is not a quick business, it takes time.
However, it does seem like a business with plenty of long-term growth, it could possibly even evolve into a 'widow and orphans stock'. Most probably before this has a chance of happening it will be taken over. In fact, if I were younger I would raise the money and buy it myself!
