It's a mad old market, but at least it keeps giving good opportunities and I've taken advantage of today's price weakness to get my position up to a more meaningful level.
I keep selling non-UK to buy more UK and I'm now maxed out on Blighty, so I hope to God that "things can only get better"!

"The large and unfunded fiscal package... could lead to a significant increase in fiscal deficits".
Wow, these guys at Fitch are geniuses!

The share price dropped sharply first thing but has come back quite a bit.
12% down now isn't too bad considering the big drop in profits... shows how depressed the share price already is and it tells me there was a degree of anticipation that these results would be tough.

Goodness it's confusing. My understanding now is that although this was the Q3 conference call, as the call took place on the day of the year end, the chap was able to give us a heads up as to full year revenue. He said "we also indicated in our release that for the full year fiscal 2022, which ends today, we anticipate revenue to be $2.9m, of which $2.7m was testing revenue..."
So we've had a heads up on revenue, but not yet a release of the detailed numbers for Q4 and Full Year.
Thanks again andypa, and for giving me the exact time! I'll listen to the whole thing soon... but maybe not today as it's all too depressing!

A good thing too! The DX vans I've seen on the streets of London looked shabby and uncared for. They're also driven by maniacs, but that's another story...

Thanks andypa, but if they've disclosed the Q4/Full Year Results in a conference call, shouldn't they have RNS'd them too? Scanning down the RNSs, I see they announced Q3 results on 30/6 and gave a business update on 17/08, but nothing more recent than that.

It's also a bit strange to sell out just because the price has gone 4% below what was paid... after all, one rarely buys at the very bottom.

The decline is relentless - 50p to sell as I write.
The share price would need to practically triple for me to break even on my last top-up, which is.... very unlikely, let's face it. If this was any 'normal' company, I'd be adding more, but can't bring myself to do it in this case. I should therefore probably sell the lot, but the sales proceeds would be immaterial now, so what's the point?
Any newbe looking at the chart would rapidly conclude that investing in RENX is just a roll of the dice.
They reported Q4 and full year results on 21 Oct last year, so presumably not long to wait to either receive some good news or confirmation that the company is failing.

Conducting a placing of shares to part-fund an acquisition when the price of Strix shares is so very low, doesn't make sense to me... unless the target company was bought very very cheaply indeed, which I don't know. All I do know is raising money at 115p per share when a year ago the price was 380p looks badly timed. At least it's a small dilution - less than 5%.

Sad to read of the difficulties for staff, but I'm afraid the truth was that Rutherford could not turn itself into a viable, sustaining business and so could not continue forever. Something had to give and from the narrow perspective of this trust, it's a good thing that we stopped throwing good money after bad.

As the years go by, the quality of SUPP's portfolio slowly improves as the bad ones go to the wall.

In economic news, British shoppers looked set to cut festive spending by more than £4bn this Christmas. According to a report from consultancy Retail Economics and Metapack, 70% of British shoppers were planning on cutting back on non-food spending "to some extent" in the last three months of the year. Overall, British consumers were likely to spend £4.4bn less on non-essentials, down 22% on the same period a year previously. The last three months of the year are crucial for most retailers, as consumers splash out on food, presents and homewares.

"Inflation is set to peak at exactly the wrong time for retailers," said Richard Lim, chief executive of Retail Economics. "Consumers are concerned, budgets are under pressure, and households are intending to cut back this year as they struggle to make ends meet. Against this weakening consumer backdrop, retailers are also facing a pincer movement of rising input and operating costs which is testing business models to breaking point."

Not for the first time, I scratch my head trying to understand why the share price doesn't react to a brace of director buys...

I see that Christopher Mills backed Trellus Health plc is having a very good day indeed.
Now if only it was us...

Noticed some weakness in the share price these last couple of days and suddenly thought, are the results out this week?

Feel for you Rizario, if it makes you feel any better, I bought shares in MADE last year...lol! However, I do feel this one will come good. ...
Always interesting to speculate why the suitors walked away. Did they throw up their hands in horror when they looked at the books, or did they baulk at a rich valuation imposed by management? I guess the latter.

Well, I've joined the student party at slightly under a quid. Tbh, I'd never heard of the company until today, but a skim read of some RNSs was enough for me to feel this is a solid enough business and a 34% drop on an already weak share price is overdone. Perhaps I'm being impulsive but you have to move fast in this market!

The price now is exactly where it was on 23/3/16, which I presume was the first day of trading after IPO. All the progress they've made since IPO comes to nought? I don't think so.

Cornflakes might be ruined, but it's a full english soon!

Okay, RNS has arrived. Deal is indeed off. What a pity...

Make that down 120p. Where's the RNS?

Share price has suddenly dropped 50p as I write. Deal's off?

Did everyone get their dividend?

(I think it was meant to be paid on Friday 30/09, but nothing received through Barclays Stockbrokers...)
