They won't get to �5.60 again- we agree on that. I hope they'll pick up. I don't know they will. The conditions for faster growth are there. Not many cyber security firms are doing as well as they thought they would. The market will wait till the last minute before they pay for expensive cover- which they will be obliged to do by May 10th now when the NIS legislation is introduced. I don't see why a change of CEO and Non-exec director will hurt this company. They maybe need a change.

If you think they are conning us why don't you write to the FCA? Beaufort are being accused in the US of share price manipulation. If TYM are making things up the FCA will be in a position to find out. I don't think they are. I think that the MOU with Posseuhl is hugely significant. I think small miners take a long time to get off the ground because they don't have much money but big players increasingly leave the work of discovery and early development to small miners, stepping in with the substantial and necessary capital when the opportunity has become a low hanging fruit. That's the way it is. Small miners carry more risk which is why we're a penny share. However, those of us who bought in recently have probably timed it well- we have a big player making a commitment to support production costs and to buy the product. We can either be patient and wait for Norway/Sweden options (April 26th and the appeal schedule is done) or assume that TYM are close to closing a deal on a new acquisition as they have advised or find out if we're being conned or sell up. Lots of choices which don't involve moaning on this board and undermining confidence in your investment. Unless that is your goal because your a shorter?

�17million fines for firms which fail to take adequate cyber security measures. GDPR regulations have passed in the UK as a piece of legislation called NIS according to the Observer. The law will apply here from May 10th not May 26th as previously thought. Banks, water companies and other firms related to essential infrastructure are under orders to prepare now to defend against a Russian cyber-attack. ECSC have been suffering from firms delaying their cyber-security provision because of a view that comprehensive cover can be expensive. It seems that firms are moving away from that view now. More and more firms are taking up training and bigger firms will have to start moving fast on comprehensive cover to eliminate vulnerabilities. I think the tide will turn now for ECSC.

I'm not expecting the sp to reach �5.60 again. I think it will recover to offer a great return within a few months- probably looking at double this all things being equal. Some services are growing at 15%. They have scaled up- they have a 24/7 response available because of the office in Oz. They over estimated the speed of growth they could achieve- mostly because they didn't expect firms to leave cybersecurity cover to the last minute. All elements of GDPR have to be covered Mr BBD to avoid eye-watering fines- up to 4% of turnover! 'Some elements' won't cut it- if they are hacked and find themselves without the required level of protection firms will be badly hurt. I don't know what British businesses are thinking of. They have to be threatened to take out protection that consumers need with or without the legislation. I don't want my security details stolen by some random firm I've bought products through. ECSC have the best payment protection cover available according to the awards they won last year. Things will get better with this firm this year.

Every firm will have to have comprehensive cyber security cover. They're growing. Just not as fast as expected. Maybe something to do with the fact that 1/4 big firms still haven't invested in the cover they have to have. Medium sized businesses are even worse. In a few months this will turn around.

PWC say that there are lots of Beaufort assets some of which are open and need to be resolved- whatever that means. Hopefully this is a short term worry about that. I notice that lots of firms where Beaufort was the broker are sliding today and yesterday.

Twitter seems to think this will be positive for us. We have a new broker already and if Beaufort Securities have been shorting TYM they are not allowed to trade at all now- PWC are acting as receivers. So that will be over and we should see our price rise. Yes- as a few PIs have commented, no sign of the haunting voice of Superlucky, with his mad and incessant de-ramping?!

I'm so shocked I'm not expressing myself properly. I meant that the money laundering funds would, according to the FBI, be accumulated by the sp manipulation and distorting trading volumes- not paid for. Have a read. Shocking stuff.

https://www.justice.gov/usao-edny/pr/six-individuals-and-four-corporate-defendants-indicted-50-million-international This says that the FBI have arrested 6 people from Beaufort for conspiracy to defraud and for money laundering in the US. The money laundering was to be paid for from the proceeds of funds gained from share price manipulation and distorting the volumes of trades! I wonder who has been handling our trades??

ECSC workshops for firms who still need to prepare for the cybersecurity regulations, are scheduled every day from 2nd March-8th March. I'm hoping we'll get a contract update in the next little while.

Probably obvious. Apologies for all his drivel. We're waiting for an acquisition which investors here have been advised on a video (Brr Media) by the CEO late January, the board are in active discussions about. TYM have agreed a memorandum of understanding for an offtake agreement with Posseuhl, a big German company, to buy 70% of assets once they are in production and to help them with production costs. They have several mines worth �3.9 billion (estimated value of the flourspa). Flourpsa is a designated essential asset and recognised as such by the US and European authorities. Once the acquisition is confirmed or we receive a mining permit (which was contested after award and is now in appeal)-it is likely that the MOU will be agreed as an offtake agreement very quickly and we'll start hearing about production plans and activities. We're expecting a multi-bagger as are most commentators who have this company on their radar.

My Dog isn't saying shorting is illegal, Bandit1. He's saying market abuse is illegal which it is. So putting out information which is 'false or misleading' so that you can manipulate the share price to support your shorting could be market abuse- The FT made the same comment on this very matter a couple the day after the Muddy Waters report was published. Yeah, come on FCA. IQE investors should write to them about this whole debacle.

According to the last podcast our CEO said that he had just returned from a meeting with a potential seller for a new acquisition capable of immediate development. I'm guessing we have to be looking at any time between now and the the next three weeks for confirmation of an agreement on this. What do other investors think?

as opposed to 152.50. Siemens signed a commitment today, with 8 other huge firms to demand engagement with cybersecurity and enforce new legislation. Things are looking up.

I didn't know that. Thanks.

Twitter is showing institutional holdings for TYM up about 3% to 28.88%. Barclays Direct, Hargreaves Lansdowne Nominees and a couple of investor services nominees are increasing their holdings.

Good find Stephen Fryup, thanks for sharing.

Are you talking to me? No, I'm not simple. The board aren't sub-contracting their assets, they're working for them- investors are though aren't we? But you expect something for nothing. You criticise constantly and aggressively so it's my assumption that you obviously don't want to encourage other private investors. In doing so, you're undermining my assets as well as your own if you are indeed invested. I'm sorry if you bought on a spike but you can't have lost that much- it's extremely likely to exceed the peak sp in a couple of months at most but probably much sooner. Maybe you should sell asap when it does?

Newsflash Pennyshare and itsaduster- You've invested in a penny share. If you want to invest in a big miner try Rio Tinto? Newmont? You'll pay around thirty pounds a share for a 5% capital gain per year (or a loss sometimes and a decent dividend). We're at a different stage of development. This share won't go up to several pounds for years that much is fair. But it is likely to be a multi-bagger- so you can make multiples of whatever you decide to invest within a few months. You can't do that on a going concern. Yes, small companies have to fundraise to get started. Yes, they have to trade off with bigger companies. The fact that a big company has committed to this award winning small company is a great big dose of confidence and credibility. What are you doing here if you don't like the share? You can't be an investor surely? Unless this is a very, very, very sad attempt to get a lower entry price?

According to the last VOX interview with the CEO. So my assumptions are we could hear any time within the next few weeks about:- - confirmation of an acquisition - progress to the next stage on the Nevada mine -or progress on mining permits in Sweden or Norway. I think the MOU will be firmed up as an agreement within days after any of these and then we'll have a constant stream of news with Posseul paying for developments of whichever site they can progress first.
