Encouraging from Keith. Clearly he and MV see c 17p as value. I think we can assume the year end update is at least 30 days away now, given close period rules, so probably looking at early September.

£11m market cap. About right / It’s getting where I expect it to get to 👍

Interesting North. This clashes with what Bloomberg reported from their data in May:

“Covid-19 is hard on the elderly, with those 65 and older accounting for 80% of the U.S. deaths from the disease for which the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has released demographic data.”



I’m going to do some digging.

[northwards] 25/7/2020 23:51

Big - afraid you're wrong. This from the economist;Data released on June 16th by the Centres for Disease Control (CDC) show that the country's death toll skews significantly younger. There, people in their 80s account for less than half of all covid-19 deaths; people in their 40s, 50s and 60s, meanwhile, account for a significantly larger share of those who die. The median covid-19 sufferer in America is a 48-year-old; in Italy it is a 63-year-old.

Re: Medical interventions have improved since lockdown. That’s true. But considering that an average Covid victim is 80 years of age, with more than one co-morbidity (which realistically would have killed them this year regardless of Covid and is why Covid deaths are very likely to have been significantly overstated, by 50% based on some reports) I reckon that the numbers of US deaths are lower post lockdown because Covid has already sadly killed a large number of those that fall into the “average Covid victim” group. To put it bluntly, regardless of lock down, a significant number were wiped out, leaving less to fall victim to Covid post lockdown.

The UK BLM protests were a live “Petri dish” experiment related to the above. Here we have BAME citizens that are at most risk statistically (aside from the group mentioned above) from Covid, not social distancing during lockdown and yet there was no accompanying significant spike in Covid deaths within that group. It tells us something if we bother to cut through the media and Government hysteria.

[northwards] 25/7/2020 18:37

Medical interventions have improved since lockdown. And I see just now U.K. govt has changed rules for British tourists travelling back from Spain - from tomorrow they will need to self isolate for 14 days.

[thebigshortfella] 25/7/2020 17:37

So let's put that 1,000 a day in perspective. During the US lockdown the highest COVID reported deaths were: 21st April: 2624 deaths, 29th April: 2536 deaths, 6th May: 2701 deaths etc. Why do you think the deaths were higher during lockdown?

[northwards] 25/7/2020 17:23

US deaths now running at 1,000 a day ... total of 140,000. 22% of all global deaths.

[thebigshortfella] 25/7/2020 15:46

To put this into perspective, 4 million equates to 0.012% of the US population. Cases is not the relevant metric. Deaths are. It’s interesting that countries who were initially praised for their rapid lockdown approach to Covid (Hong King, Japan, Australia) are now having “issues”. Maybe lockdown wasn’t a good idea and going for herd immunity (whilst protecting the elderly etc) would have been the better approach? Covid is clearly not going anywhere, so the sooner we expose the healthy to it, the better.

[northwards] 25/7/2020 10:13

Confirmed Covid cases in the US now at 4 million and new cases running at an incredible almost 500,000 a week.

ALT has managed its news flow abysmally and the very low share price reflects this. The next update needs to be clear and more info will be needed to show that the business model can be profitable even in these challenging times.

[northwards] 23/7/2020 13:35

Pebb and Four have held up reasonably well, compared to Alt. The key reason being that they have proven business models. Will our annual results update help investors' confidence that our business model has real potential?

[firw00d] 23/7/2020 08:23

Yeah John, oops, you started buying this right at the top again...... 120p. another shirt gone from 'chippy tea' John....

[thebigshortfella] 22/7/2020 22:54

John09 - what’s your take on Stockopedia rating ALT as a ”Speculative Sucker Stock”:

Trumps admission that Covid is likely to get worse in the US before things improve is pretty stark for a man who thought it was just flu. Suspect they will be up to 200,000 deaths by early autumn.

[seangwhite] 21/7/2020 08:20

Looks like its going to be a long summer before ALT holders get any relief from the constant drift downwards in the share price The reduction in EV does look over the top compared to that of PEBB and FOUR.Hard to see how the BOD might address this without a real opening up of the US promo industry.

[tjbird] 20/7/2020 17:06

😂

Looks like May well touch 10p

[kemche] 20/7/2020 16:32

Average down. But not up. Strategy of winners.
