hello bignose.yes that would explain things. of course,it is not a valid excuse,but as i say,this seems to be an area where subjectivity rules!lol.no certainly not getting excited about DL,but it is the only "news" we have had for so long.nothing significant im sure.but just mildly interested to note it's in dubai,which together with other gulf states,seems to be the focus of so much activity now.probably just a nice spot for a "jolly".

https://www.eurekalert.org/news-releases/980664 sorry forgot to post the link.

news of a sort!..astonishing to think this is the first news item since the 30th august (excluding right issue ).bignose im pleased to see your positivity and i really do hope it's justified.im just finding it difficult to accept the they can go this long sitting tight on any and all substantive developments.i realise that market sensitivity disclosure concepts allow for a fair degree of subjective evaluation,but surly there must be a point at which disclosure becomes imperative and this is why i'm worried that there has been no progress. i hope you are right and im wrong and as always time will tell.at least it's not that long now till next results.

interesting new appointment.encouraging CV.

well the appointment doesn't seem to have impressed the market.all too often these NED appointments are either just window dressing or an exercise in mutual backslapping and participation in the reciprocity merry-go-round.

interesting to see.encouraging.pleased to see it specifically addresses the "no placebo" trial question.

ricketts has confirmed on twitter that he will be doing a results podcast in next few days.

not much time allowed for retail.i got an email from from Hl at 17.28,but suspected it related to another share i was waiting news on.logged in at about 19.01 and read message to discover it was closing at 19.00.received email from hl at 19.04 to say closed.probably a good thing as i can now digest the news at leisure and see how market reacts tomorrow and over next few days.initial and unconsidered reaction is on balance good news. i expect there may be some concern over over expansion as the previous acquisitions probably haven't been fully embedded yet, but the amount being raised is relatively modest. positive that no discount and it may be seen as a very opportune time to acquire as im assuming the targets are at depressed levels (or at least some will be).will be looking at detail in due course.

good find RWT2.RNS tomorrow?

very much agree with that ,Basscadet. we knew the current picture wasn't going to be great, but looking at the number of areas where something positive could be reported over the next few months certainly suggests an inflection point. pleased that the focus has been narrowed,as it felt far too "scattergun"in nature before.

afternoon all. yes lack of news is pretty disappointing. i agree entirely bignose, that china approval seems to be progressing well and on track for approval ether by end of year or first quarter next year. the continued silence re FDA is starting to get a bit worrying.does it indicate there is a problem which is simply not being disclosed?obviously i hope not, but surely in the absence of a problem there must have been some progress to report. hope im wrong.of course,now that mellon has almost 60% ownership,he may be thinking that a main market listing is not really serving much purpose.the main reason for listing is access to capital,but it seems manifestly obvious that in its present state , no one of substance is going to invest in erp, so why not just take it private. this would be, imo,t he worst possible outcome for PIs ,but it's the one i'm most worried about. strangely the inclusion of DLI gives me a very small modicum of comfort in this connection,as if (and it's a huge if) DLI did start to gain any traction,it might be in need of capital,although i suppose not having a listing wouldn't, in and of itself, preclude organising a capital raise in some way. just musing.

yes,seems an astonishingly significant analysis to me, particularly the info re the new us set up.i accept the need for caution in view of past claims and hyperbole,but nevertheless it seems extremely positive.

morning bignose.as you say, anyone's guess. almost 6 months since last news re the progression (hope the is the right word!) of fortacin. very strange. the wait goes on.
