Do we know whether the damage caused by the coolant system extends to the VRS bits of kit? It seems that the company has not said anythng about that?
Well, I sold out a couple of days ago, nice bit of holiday money but am watching like a hawk to see if it all kicks off again.
If the company decides to split off the food division and maybe flog it, where might that leave we shareholders? They may decide to use the consequent wadge of cash to bid for something. How might the share price cope with all this, svp?
Fortunately this share being off the radar means one can top up without too much pain which I have done; the fundamentals seem good and the long term strategy sound. Anyone else think the same?
Well, it doesnt say a lot, but then, what can it say, beyond painting a glowing picture. Still, all grist to the mill.Will top up again when the widower's mite has been released from exhausting Xmas excess!
The level of my bullshitometer went through the roof when I read "leveraging private market insights to improve public portfolio management". Can any clever person translate that into understandable English. I thought it might mean "buying companies and selling them dear"!
Anybody know anything about Inductive Capital LP who were the big buyers declared yesterday? Is it a front for some big name?
If MIcrosoft like what happens in their partnership with RDT, is there a chance they might simply gobble them up? Chicken feed to their budget.
Why the sudden rise? Is there news in the offing?
Great Bobo in a Bucket, it moved, it moved. Does someone know something?
Their experience with the vines being destroyed makes them cautious, and rightly so. Though a cynic might say that the delay is to give time for a French company to bring out a close equivalent product.
Given the slow but steady progress that RDT has been making, I am surprised that it has stayed below the radar for so long. They now work with 10% of the FTSE companies, are linked up with Microsoft and must be very close to break even; this is a much healthier position than many AIM companies. Yet, the share is largely ignored. Perhaps what the company does is too complex for investors to understand as they seem to prefer companies which flog clothes or fags or cheap consumer rubbish. Pity.
But Iof can process raw iodine through Iochem which gives them higher value and more profitable product to sell, hence protecting their margins. If iodine prices fall, they process more and vice versa.
I have always been surprised by the amount of nasty that this company gets treated to on the forums. Should one assume that this is only a bunch of shorters trying to get their wicked way or is there genuinely something wrong? It takes time, sometimes a long time for companies like this to come good, so is the bullshyte largely down to boredom?
So, why the lousy share price, then?
The French would love the Brits to leave as they would pick up investment, jobs as well as forcing UK agricultural products out of the French market through tariffs, thus favouring their desperate farmers, many of whom are up the proverbial ship creek because they are inefficient subsidy junkeys suffering withdrawal symptoms.
Mr Villeneuve might know his way round the French bureaucracy, which palms to grease, which politician to approach etc to get recognition pushed through. But the French are in a funny 'Made in France' mood at the moment so anything from elsewhere may be getting the old cold shoulder.
Watch for steady buying patterns, IMHO. Let's see what September brings. Though the present market mess might stop any hostile activity
Given the earnings potential of this company, is it not likely to be the subject of a takeover soon enough?
ALK should do well this cold weather if there is a generating shortage.
