Realistic timeframes, valuations, etc.

Rocka, Can I suggest having read back through your recent posts, that you are waving in the wind and seem to be very short term/big demands type of gambler. An investor wouldn't change their mind in a matter of days, unless there is a material change. You have been bemoaning news and after your post yesterday I nearly replied be careful what you wish for as a placing had entered my mind here.

This is a medical CRO and they work in a field which takes a long time to get anyone to sign anything, rigorous checking and re-checking of the science, followed by rigorous checking and re-checking of the product before anyone is prepared to commit, it takes time.

However, FAB has now launched OptiMAL and that is being assessed by prospective clients, this will take time but has been ongoing for some time. The Company have stated they are likely to get smaller OptiMAL use contracts to start, before some clients may come back for the chunkier full development contracts. That is the way of this particular industry.

So whether or not you spend another £10k here or you sell up or you spend £10k elsewhere, my advice to you is to develop some patience (and that sometimes is very long term patience), while you are sitting there holding one company, others always look like they are doing better, but in reality that is not the case most of the time. Good Luck with whatever you do, but remember PIs and those on these BBs will always be ahead of reality, as they want short term gratification, when it always takes longer, costs more and can fail, invest and be patient and look at

Both the bid and offer price rising within the wide quoted spread. I have a little more headroom to fill now, so have started with 50k.

Had a feeling this was coming, very quiet, lack of real trading and the timing were all tell tales, as was the tight lipped rumours. Last week SML another I have a large holding in (and seems to have been mirroring FAB prices albeit at a tenth of FAB) did a placing at 1.3p for £4m they too have lots going on and are using the funds to accelerate drilling towards an earlier PFS. That was at 1.3p at no discount. The market although PIs were telling each other it had enough money has responded very positively and it closed yesterday at 1.9p.

I felt it was possible that FAB would do the same and am pleased they have done so, this will accelerate OptiMAL rollout and was probably needed for some of the bigger new clients to sign any deal (they will not want to have contracts with companies who don't have a robust financial situation. I think the company have explained themselves well and don't see this as negative, if, and a big if, the shares have gone to long term IIs as the last one did. I have no reason to believe it hasn't as if this was a vulture driven firesale placing the SP would have been hammered and there would have been a 30%+ discount. I believe this is more to do with large investors wanting to add more, but not wanting to buy in the market and happy to do so in a placing at no or little discount. Overall happy with this and if the market reacts like it did last time we will soon be up at recent highs. This is nearly double the price they raised at last year, that is a sign of good progress!!!

Stan it was 13.4p to buy yesterday so below mid anyway....

I honestly believe that we will see news next week and that we could see the 2p+ level again, which we haven't seen for a long time here, but believe it to be the next stop.

JBCo, when was the last time you posted you may have sold too early? It seems to be a constant.

There is going to be an updated MRE in the next 2 months which will not only use the new information from the recent drilling campaign (new areas confirmed and increase in resource as well as details on recoverability), but updated prices and this will in itself lead to a decent re-rate.

Some here think the drill results are priced in, perhaps the reaction recently was a little flat due to the fundraise and pricing of that? I don't think there will be many flipping their shares, I think most placees are longer term investors that were struggling to get stock at the prices they wanted, now they have that I think they will sit on it longer than for a 10% turn.

I see Mr 1,341,367 was up and waiting for the opening this morning to sell the shares they bought early yesterday morning, I wonder if they were one of the ones to comment here or on X that they bought in and it was going to the moooon....

DeBull it is exactly as you say...

You should try it Laura, you won't then have to post that you weren't expecting the next placing, when it comes...

We all have different thoughts and strategies, mine is different to yours, as I now see the RNSs (that I believe have been held back to get this away) will now coming flying and the SP will react positively and appreciate from here. If you look back to last month and the levels then below the placing price, this isn't a placing gone to the short term vultures.

So far today we have had the sellers of 1,006,733 (3 buys earlier), 240,361 and 987,212 all sell trades at a loss, that they bought this morning, roll up and join them, when the bid drops back it will cost you more.

Janiax,

I hold a minute amount in an ISA, I bought and sold this a few times over a year ago until the Summer when it became clear it was in a tailspin and even the pump and dumps were losing out, really no momentum apart from the odd Laura et al pump every now and then. These are met by selling and last no more than 24-48 hours (you can already see the day traders selling from this morning).

I was lucky enough to take a large profit in January last year almost exactly a year ago when a large buyer appeared and bought lots of stock, they have now exited at a large loss and no real interest apart from the pump and dump crews with a little profit from another rise elsewhere jumping on here after Laura spams the other BBs.

Janiax,

Always good to see the likes of you surface after spamming other boards this morning and yesterday about PYC, hope you manage to get out with some profit, but on previous pump and dumps here, most don't.

Good Luck with that, don't leave it too late to sell out and move on to the next one...

Yeah their CEO is jumping ship and they need to get the SP higher than 0.4p to get a placing away, of course they are positive...

Just look at the size of the contracts they RNS, unlike a corner shop running at the same figures PYC employs expensive Scientists and that is why they don't breakeven on these levels of contracts.

I see the twitter pumpers all jumped aboard this morning, the last 3 pump and dumps has seen everyone sell at a loss, expect the same this afternoon and tomorrow, you are buying into a fundraise, MMs happy to sell those to you and buy back at 0.25p

Bluegrass,

Don't get irritated, that is part and parcel of these BBs, by reading and posting on financial BBs you have accept you will read all sorts of posts, there are filter options which can work, but anyone just reading the positive messaging is doomed for a fall at one point (it pays to look at both sides and DYOR from there).

Next look at the history of the posters, are they blowing hot and then cold? Do they do this on other stocks? Do they claim to be new and then start posting a particular storyline?

Ultimately we all suffer from positive bias, if we are in, we want to see positive posts and if we are out or looking to get in then the negative bias comes in. However, to move the price we need momentum and that comes with a lot of these traders jumping aboard (the herd), we know they are not going to be long term, but if as is the case here they can give the SP a decent leg up and it can then consolidate (which this has done nicely), it will do so again in the future with more news.

Just looks like someone sold 3 x 1m lots 10 minutes before close and knocked the bid down, I got another 1m earlier at 1.43p and that trade and the 2 x 500k around that time were all put in the sell column, also all the ? column look to be buys (I know the UT went into a situation where the bid was higher than the offer, but someone bid 1.53p for that 400k). The reality is no-one can really tell what is going on trades wise as so many are being delayed, but it seems more of the traders are exiting for greener grass and others are slowly building stakes here.

I believe the newsflow will start again soon and that will in turn wake the market up to what is happening and the potential.

Now now girls, the post was a bit odd bearing in mind the published mid price was 1.475p at the time, but everyone has their thoughts and strategies, just don't let that boil over into spats.

Max19, these are discussion boards, for discussion. The fact I hold a few PYC in an ISA shouldn't 'allow' me to post, we should all be able to post when we want to. If only invested posters could discuss a share, where would you find the new investors?

Any experienced investor does not just listen to the bull points, before making a decision on investing.

If people are completely ignoring any potentially negative points and worse trying to censor them or deride the poster then you can see them for what they are.

Just got a quote to buy 10m PYC shares at 0.297p.

That might even be delayed until after the close tomorrow due to size. I have just purchased another 2m in 750k,500k and 750k lots, price rising each time, the quoted spread doesn't help being so wide, but while the price had dropped a little yesterday, it is moving up to buy...

"Would be nice if people focused wholly on their own investments rather than spend 90%+ time here"

Laura, I would have never heard of PYC if you hadn't come on to spam the FAB BB about PYC, so you reap what you sow...

I still hold some PYC stock, so why are you bleating on, I am invested here (albeit a tiny amount now).

I have as much right as anyone else to post my views and as an investor holding PYC stock, I even pass 'your rules for posting', so what now? I bet you will start to delete the posts.....Censorship always works, doesn't it???
