Short data...22 Oct 2021 21:13
Wtf first post since Thursday? Surely that’s a LSE glitch?....
To position I no longer hold here having sold at 170-190 from 40p but I still have 4D on my watchlist. Blautix/IBS and the MRX platform are realistic SP bags.
Thing is this was and still is cash hungry. That’s why I exited. I was premature with my investment here and was fortunate to do so well. I actually think now is a good time to buy!
The cash burn is something I reckon AVCT ‘newbies’ will soon find out - drug, therapeutic discovery etc is not cheap!
That’s why these companies regularly come to market - to raise money! So don’t be surprised when they do no matter how it’s dressed up!
Unfortunately PI’s often get locked in on the wrong side of a placement which favours the ii’s who risk bigger sums. They often then forward sell, sell, or even cover with a short sell into the market! It’s like an AIM legacy old boys deal for getting the cash! It’s endemic in pharma, O&G, mining, tech, media you name it. This market is not geared for PI ‘fodder’!.
It really is a PI sht sandwich! I genuinely feel for those PI’s who are often the ones that have backed the company through thick and thin and have been caught the wrong side of the ‘curve’.
As words of encouragement though I do think, well believe 4D are the real deal. Duncan has been awesome in his stewardship and the BoD are completely aligned with shareholders. The science will eventually deliver and the SP will follow.
Well I hope that explains my position. I am not a ramper or a deramper just a pragmatist.
Anyways here’s the data sorry no link as via email...
‘The level of disclosed Short Interest in DDDD has changed materially.
Short Interest has moved from 0.00% on the previous trading day to 0.50% today. That is a movement of 0.50 percentage points.
This data is taken from the FCA and comprises all disclosed short positions above the 0.5% reporting threshold requirement.”
Anyways it’s not that material but as it hasn’t been posted it gives me the chance to say hi!
Good luck with your investments
