Listen to our latest Investing Matters Podcast episode 'Uncovering opportunities with investment trusts' with The AIC's Richard Stone here.
That picture is all too familiar of one that was posted at the start of last year by a certain scot standing beside an Omega sign.
"To be fair to BJ..I think he was taken in like the rest of us."
Nope, I'm not going with that one, he is aggressive, and highly abusive and in fact threatening to anyone that took a view that was different from his unsubstantiated ramps. I've had him offer to come over and smash my keyboard to a thousand pieces, being called a vermin a weasel, and been denegrated using no end of slurs. And this wasn't when the sh*t hit the fan, he was highly dismissive and abusive of any contrary view all along.
You can be taken in all you like, and I'm on record as ODX seeing him as a "useful idiot", but lapping up all the "positives" without question and indeed being blind to what is actually happening is one thing, being an online bully is something else....and laughably he left here for a short time citing that he'd been bullied.
If I could be bothered, I'd dig up the post here when he poured praise on himself for all the emails and message he received from people that would have sold up only for his posts. Wonder what his inbox has been like the last 6 months.
He must be an absolute pleasure to be around in real life when things go against him or someone calls him out.
"Now we are being told that to commission 1M capacity for the DHSC, Omega have spent £2.5M of the DHSC prepayment plus some of its own cash, and this didn't include purchasing any equipments that reportedly cost £17M."
As they were forced to disclosed only recently, they allowed shareholders to think they had 1M of their own capacity, in fact they only have 660K. So the £2.5M from the gov got them 1.3M capacity.
Yeah basically " I wouldn't be surprised" Regulatoruk just said that ODX is not a reliable or credible source.
As it happens and clearly inadvertently , his inference that ODX is not a reliable or credible source has repeatedly been proved true. The most recent proof being the unbelievably upbeat assessment of "significant orders" from 3 countries that were happening in the short term, back in mid-july 2021
Other than the food intolerance stuff, which isn't exactly flying off the shelves, what the hell is ODX doing. Not making LFTs for domestic use, we know that. Why no announcements of investigations or deals to manufacture LFTs to detect other conditions, or infections....they have all this kit, that is sitting fundamentally doing bugger all. Other than checking emails and the odd phone call to be check the status of approvals....surely they should long ago been engaging with companies around the world to make non-covid LFTs. If they are, where is the progress, if they are not...why the hell not ?
It is one of the most non-functioning manufacturing companies I've ever heard off.
Appears none of the directors see value, or even have the moral integrity to show support for the share even at the sub 20p price.
Pretty disgusting really.

The surescreen one is already being supplied by NHS...how many is another matter. (see the videos)
"Blimey - looks as though the trash is my post..."
Fixed that.
maybe there is a BYOB party happening.
the irony being that he'll see virtually no replies on this thread :)
The old anonymous "friend" told me something, ramp
"Next few weeks could be interesting..."
Which is a sentence that contains no useful information whatsoever, the standard regulatoruk playbook of being suggestive of something happening without foundation, but always with a "could be" deniability modifier.
"As per usual all you derampers try and talk down anything that is said .Sad individuals really why don't you listen and keep your mouths closed shut"
...said the person widely acknowledged on the ODX forum for her habitual sunny disposition.
The important thing is, for a change they did boll*cks up an RNS.
I was half expecting an addendum of, "the test is unavailable as it has not passed the required uk certification process" or some such self-destruct phrasing.
Surely, if just purely by the law of averages and nothing else, ODX is due to stumble upon some good news shortly. It's all been awful news all year, even the DAM agreement was followed (the very next day) by the news that the test couldn't be sold in the UK.
Come on dice, roll a double and get ODX out of jail.
"wouldn't be surprised"
Oke, I wasn't postulating the theory, merely converting the OP text into what he meant to say !
"foreswa" = "foresaw"
I'm guessing the point he is making is that DAM/ODX foreswa the ending of free test, which would leave DAM and hence ODX in a better place when people need to pay for tests.
"Wouldn’t be surprised to see some money flowing this way…"
The old standard regulatoruk playbook, being suggestive of a ramp but using the "wouldn'tbe surprised" terminology to give himself deniability.
Startling amount of money flowing into odx, down over 2p as I write.
what a hero
