The E-commerce guy seems to know what he is talking about.

stevebt, not the government but BOE that controls interest rates. Increasing them to reduce inflation.

We should see a 1-2% increase across markets today as pension funds rebalance their portfolios for end of Q3. As equities have been hit badly in Q3, naturally they need to buy more today to match the % requirement for the portfolio going into Q4.

The measure today was not made by the BoE interest rate committee but experts within the bank and amounts to Quantitative Easing . So let's sum this up, BoE experts are performing temporary QE whilst the interest rate committee are performing the exact opposite, Quantitative Tightening!!! Sterling is being punished as I write and worst case scenario is an emergency IR rise.

This has been raised in the past i.e. expectation (potential) v reality (actual revenue). Up until 48 hours ago the split was 100:0, now it is 80:20 as the revenue can gets kicked down the road. The AIM loves high expectation and hates when reality hits.

I think the markets have looked at SOH's playbook and thought, this is jam tomorrow again!!

It wIll take SA scientists about 10-14 days to grow and examine the Omicron cultures before they can say if the current vaccines will continue to work. Therefore expect stockmarket swings based on hearsay and misinformation for the next 2 weeks.

A fellow scientist, a geneticist from Stanford University, speculated in the comments that the virus was so different to the original Wuhan strain, Sars-Cov-2, it could be labelled “Sars-Cov-3” – “essentially restarting the pandemic”.

because the results were already priced into Skin. Remember that on the AIM 80% is based on EV i.e. expectations with no revenue or profits and 20% on rev/profits, hence the value of OPTI now.

OPTI selling some Skin now because........have you seen the price of Skin?

Well if Market capitalisation = NAV + Market expectation, then based on the OPTI share price, the NAV of Skinbio is basically zero and everything is based on future expectation! As I said earlier, let’s hope nothing goes wrong!

I would be extremely happy for Skinbio to do very well because OPTI has 25% exposure. However, if everything does not go to plan in Skinbio, then I know which share I would rather be in 100%.

The wrong horse based on the here and now, but this is a marathon, not a sprint.

I might be completely wrong but about SBTX but at it’s current price, I would rather have 25% exposure to an asset (not currently reflected in the OPTI share price), than exposed 100% to a share that, based on one piece of bad news, would collapse in price.

...............and for the Americans to push for COVID-19 to be called Chinese Flu.

It is quick out of the blocks today but I think it will fall back. I hope it doesn't but depends on the DOW later on.
By the way do people experience a freeze of prices on this website in the afternoon?

Easyp, I agree with your thoughts on a takeover. Look at Laird, pulled down to a low of 114 then boooom, a takeover bid at �2.

Hi WastrelUK, Did you get a chance to measure your blood pressure in July and November to check on the difference?

You see Delek have played this very well. People on this board say that they will he happy with something close to £1.50. That is exactly what Delek was hoping for. This is all mind games and psychology. Let me ask you something, what would the price be in 1 year from now. Exactly! So why should Delek not pay for the near term future cost as well!
