I'll be honest, I too would sell if I was an insider as 1) The company is overvalued and 2) You shouldn't have all your eggs (salary AND share options) in one basket. Hopefully they will buy back in one day.

The fall has not been helped by Eben's missus selling £127k yesterday and the day before. Another vote of confidence!!!

We had that nice climb up the mountain but it's been drifting down and just reached the other side of the mountain.

I think RPI needs to announce some new products that are significantly different to those produced so far. The Raspberry Pi X (X = 1, 2, 3, 4....) will always be their staple and RPX0Y0 has added to that staple IMO which is good for consistent future growth but the massive P/E ratio is only justified if they hit a new market.

All my opinion so DYOR etc etc.

These forums are meant (I thought) to be informational. Not for attacking people. Not for bragging. Not for trying to pump crappy AIM companies.

I come on here for info on the company in question. It would be fine if the same people were posting useless posts but sometimes they brag, sometimes they post useful info which means I cannot filter them. :-(

Tis but a flesh wound for TRT.

Several companies have £12 price targets IIRC FWIW. No idea where this share is going however IMO a sudden drop seems unlikely except if Trump does something stupid like invading China (quite likely).

BTW all these bragging posts about making loads of money are completely pointless and tiresome.

Oh, and in case you missed it, it does not give me confidence seeing Eben flog one sixth of his share holding. I know he needs a new car but come on!

RPI has a crazy big PE ratio of 80. It simply does not have any revolutionary products at the moment and so that ratio cannot be justified IMO. It *is* a successful company and has its niche, but there are no signs of that expanding (or contracting) at present.

My personal disgruntlement is the high power of the RP2350 which just cannot compete in a lot of markets due to its extremely high sleep power and lack of built in RTC (the ESP32 fills this niche).

I would also like them to produce a parallel tensor (AI) processor but I think they need more money for R&D first and the jobs page is not suggesting they are going into that world yet.

All just my non-expert opinion.

The GPIO and encryption issues have been fixed:

Glad they finally got around to it. Just need to release a Raspberry Pi 500 with eMMC slot and we're good to go.

How do illegal immigrants cost the UK money? Is it the case that the government drags their feet over processing their applications for asylum and so the hotel bills become massive?

Tax reform is needed on an international basis so people can't just move country to dodge tax. That is a big job so it is true that there is a balance to be had.

I suspect it will probably drop a little as is normal for companies doing well and posting good results.

How would you fix the economy, business and jobs?

This is really weird. The user that was promoting the amazing starlink video on youtube has disappeared off the face of the earth.

Where are you @criticalacclaim?

It's such a low percentage drop, could it be related to share dilution somehow? They didn't do any buybacks or share offers though so no idea why the teeny tiny drop.

Where is the new starlink video? All I get is people reviewing starlink.

Starlink will never have the bandwidth and reliability-of-bandwidth of fibre optic connections and will always cost more money to run.

Once you've laid the fibre optic you only have to upgrade the terminal equipment if you want a bandwidth upgrade as the fibre is rated for ridiculous bandwidth.

Starlink satellites have to constantly be rocketed into orbit before they fall to earth and are forced to share limited radio spectrum. Starlink has its place but it will never compete with fibre on cost and bandwidth.

Investing in an AIM company with a MASSIVE spread? What could possibly go wrong?!?!?!?

Hormone beef is banned from sale in the EU.

You get "electromagnetic radiation" from the sky mate. If you mean radio frequency radiation there is naff all coming from the till and that which is is regulated as part of CE certification.

Another one for the filter list!

And as you predicted, Ryan Maughan just bought £12.5k. Not a massive amount but he's clearly building up a stake.

I cannot believe Kroger is STILL looking for a new CEO. Get a move on!!!
