I also wonder if it is nothing more than a reflection of the prudent cash preservation approach. Keeping a lid on spending, including marketing, has helped us rode out these delays.
From the perspective of large holders who do not plan to sell until the end, a steady rise towards the end would be nice but would make no tangible difference. It gives one a sense of comfort to see the value grow and may allow derisking sooner, but thats it. When there are successes we won't have to worry about word spreading, but if we did then marketing would be money well spent at that point.
I share the sense of frustration that this isn't moving but I don't see that I gain anything other than having that relieved by an early rise. On the contrary there are gains to be had from this. As mk111 has suggested, there is a potential tactical advantage. I feel that may be lessened if it was publicly acknowledged as objectors would point to it to paint prd as a disingenuous unreliable co. With the share price low I have been able to buy much more than I otherwise could have. I may be at a limit but I could dribble in still.
If the price rose on investor sentiment, I could add less, but it would also likely have periodic substantial falls pre news. That adds a different stress and may tempt people to shrink their holding for fear someone knows something when it is just foibles of investors. The small changes we see now are really pretty stable.
