Interestingly, the number of Aim Smarter employees on LinkedIn is now 47 - it was 45 a few weeks ago. Seems like they are expanding the team ...

From ASI Q2 survey just released: North American promotional products distributors' sales in the second quarter of 2020 declined 44.4% on average compared to the same period the prior year – a historic plunge in business caused by the coronavirus pandemic and its related societal shutdown measures.For the rest of 2020, distributors appear to expect a small bounce back from Q2 lows but are still collectively predicting that annual sales will, on average, be down about 35% compared to 2019.

Shares are about risk . If you want a straight bet , best to stick to the horses.

Those who talk about skin in the game

This one has had a bigger pullback than an elephants foreskin

As we approach end of week, can't help but think another £200k has been burnt this week on wages

Firewood , I never thought i would agree here re John but i do . The changes his mind like Boris J on masks lol I wouldn't spend any time listening to John clueless .

[robbnw] 15/7/2020 16:20

Absolutely , I would guess that too . So thats all the main shareholders . Do we really think they would invest if they thought it wasn't a great buy . Hell we are in the middle of the first global pandemic . Things have been delayed .anyone buying now will be laughing

Well joe90 that's something you know all about, you are a past master in nursing losses, After all your boo boo's ..... nobody even compares, Keep an eye on him folks, if he buys then short and vice versa.

3rd largest holder ST has added significantly, again. I suspect this guy knows more than most about the inner workings of ALT. That's KE, ST, & PH all with significant investment in recent months, I also suspect MV will have bought too, just not quite enough to notify us all.

[robbnw] 15/7/2020 13:38

Dont think he needs to and maybe he prefers to keep his Finacial affairs quiet In the end if he knows the investment is good , why doesnt he need to care what small shareholders think . But i maybe wrong

[northwards] 15/7/2020 13:33

MV is a shade under 15 percent. Wouldnt take too much to nudge him over that threshold. And would send a very strong signal that he is a big supporter.

[robbnw] 15/7/2020 13:02

Oh thanks Stars. Brought a smile to my face re John . Dead right and I agree with you 100% . I did similar to you. Bought again a few times . And agreed re timescale if not before .

[northwards] 15/7/2020 12:39

Agree with you Stars. That is my investment timeframe and it does feel like the short term - ers have largely exited.

[stars309] 15/7/2020 12:28

All of the 3 main shareholders will have taken advantage recently, no doubt about it, why wouldn't they?I am also a long term investor, I added at 35p & more recently 19p. I am not interested in short term market fluctuations.All serious investors know ALT is a bargain at this price and the true value will come in the next 1-5 years. As for John, he is the type of guy, if he owned shares in a farm he would turn up each day to see how the cows are getting on and quiz the farmer about the quality of the milk. Desperate!

[robbnw] 15/7/2020 11:56

Me neither . He is not a full board anymore so he doesnt need to disclose until he breaches the % figure . He has over 10m . That means MV. KW and ST have about 23,000,000 between them and they are firm holders / it seems buyer . PH is a buyer and holder with 1.1m shares . The Chair Keith's E has abut 450,000 and is a buyer . People who you would assume are in the know are buyers thats for sure . Hopefully those who want a quick buck are gone and have sold . If you want to make a quick buck drop down to the local bookies !

[northwards] 15/7/2020 11:33

I wouldn't be surprised if MV has bought a few ...

[robbnw] 15/7/2020 11:19

No doubt John and big short will say ST deluded , stupid , throws good money after bad .... mmmm who will we trust more . Those who are prepared to put their money where their mouth is or those who arent .

[robbnw] 15/7/2020 10:55

So. From the announcement just now , the third largest shareholder has been quietly adding more shares to his holding and has bought another quarter of a mill. He now holds 5,000,000 . What does that say about his view of the long term . He must thing they are a bloody good buy at this crazy price . I am sure Big Short and John will say what the xxxx does he know . I prefer to think quite a lot honestly . Clearly ST , MV and KW are long term holders and probably buyers . ST certainly is . On top of that all the directors have bought and PH now has 1.1m shares . I reckon we will see share buys at this level paying off handsome dividends .Time will tell but good news

Some good news from the US on Covid final stage drug trials. And the Oxford study should report end of next month. A vaccine is the only way out of this crisis. And it looks increasingly clear that the wetter, cooler winter months will spike infections. A vaccine can't come soon enough.

In case we dont see you again big short , have a good trip .. if not Brazil , try Mexico . Lovely beaches . Ps how will you manage to pass the endless hours you spend on here posting your inane pearls of non wisdom . I would love to have a quick look at your share portfolio . Prob sum total of a couple of grand . Enjoy x

[thebigshortfella] 15/7/2020 08:31

Thanks Robbnw! Perfect opportunity for you to post your inane fangirl messages about MV, SN and to head down to Albemarle & Bond to see if you can raise funds from your Glee DVD collection to cover your losses. Have fun! Love you! xxx 😘 PS I’d happily go to Brazil. Cases are not the same as deaths (as the US is showing)...Classic example of herd immunity by not locking down...But I wouldn’t expect you to get that...FFS...㈺4;

[robbnw] 15/7/2020 08:20

Big short enjoy your holiday . YEEEEEEAAAA a break from the daily rantings of bigshort . Holiday to a place without a mask ... how about Brazil . Heard nice there this time of the year .. how will we all manage without 20 messages a day from bigshort .Safe trip my friend xxx

[thebigshortfella] 15/7/2020 08:10

Robbnw - 😂 You are the master of the argumentum ad hominem (you’ll need to look it up). I’m going on holiday today (to a non-mask wearing country). But when I get back, let’s talk about you being my soshal meedier consultant. If you could try and figure out Ctrl+X and Ctrl+V in the meantime, that would be marvellous... 😘
