Aqua Bounty Share Discussion Threads

goz. Have you got a link to the fda comments page that you could perhaps put in the header?
TIA.

[goz1986] 12/3/2013 14:11

Annoyingly I can see the FDA using the volume of public comments as an excuse to delay this further..........

[goz1986] 12/3/2013 14:09

Anyone who produces organic salmon or non GM etc. will put that on the label therefore making it rather obvious what is and what is not GM. I really cannot see the problem, especially considering the fish are identical once fully grown..........

6 weeks this Friday. I would expect positive news/rns shortly after.
Most comments/concerns are the fact that it looks like it won't be labelled as GM, so nobody will know the difference from normally farmed salmon and Aqua Advantage salmon. Wild salmon or organic salmon will be a choice but, at a premium price,and the demand for those will further increase the price difference and make farmed salmon look like a bargain. The fact that alot of yanks will eat copious amounts of processed food, food pumped full of all manor of kak, takeaways/junk food......
Kinda makes one laugh really.
The two month extension was merely a "well, we gave you all plenty of time to file your various complaints/concerns, and none have proven to be valid" blah blah....
Should take off big style once formally approved.....then the world wide roll out over time. Some even forget that they have other species of Aqua Advantage seafood too.
Long and strong.

From what i read there has been nothing new brought up and i doubt there will be as i am sure everything has been covered in the last few years......

[xcap] 08/3/2013 14:36

goz, are we aware of any?

[goz1986] 08/3/2013 13:55

I don't really know what happens after the 26th April is up. I suspect there will be another couple of months while they address any realistic complaints.

[xcap] 08/3/2013 13:52

Lufcs
what's the next move here?

[lufc5] 26/2/2013 12:17

Wow....up on a couple of buys...get that bunting out!!!

[xcap] 16/2/2013 16:19

all good points chaps.
if share price drops further I'll be buying
Captain Kirk will have to pay a decent price now for a take out imho whatever the outcome. He's confirmed that he is content that the bio-technology is valid, clearly works and is safe, otherwise why buy into ABTX. If refused (hopefully an unlikely outcome) he may take the company out and take the technology to a country(s) that will approve, for example the African nations and come out smelling of roses as a commercial philanthropist (obvioulsy won't being doing it without profit)

Lufc.This has been manipulated for a good while now imho .there is no doubt in my mind that the pre Christmas announcment was held back from circa April 2012 ,just goes to show that in the investment world ,not only do you have to research a company but also put up with dishonesty ,cheating and an environment where lying is acceptable.

Another 60 days on top for objectors to put there case forward.bridging loan will only give enough cash until march 2013. Will Intrexon stump up more cash.

[lufc5] 22/1/2013 21:07

Well we're roughly 50% through the 60 day pointless(imho) exercise....just procedures etc...etc.
The FDA would lose all(if they have any lol) credibility if they were seen to go back on their findings.....won't happen.
Randal will/maybe has....thrown a few sacks of green confetti around....
All the above ends in allegedly....lol
;o)

[xcap] 22/1/2013 19:53

just pleased i was able to buy for less than i got out - thats a first for me, not by any clever investing stratgey i assure you, just luck:-)

[lufc5] 22/1/2013 17:25

Anywhere nice?
Was about to start a relationship with a damn volleyball...name of Wilson...lol
;o)

[xcap] 22/1/2013 15:45

Lufcs
back in!

[lufc5] 21/1/2013 13:27

For my info rec'.
Code moved onto bid with wins @ 12:16 on no trade showing.

[lufc5] 17/1/2013 02:34

....ps..
If Tommy B has noticed the potential here....then imho others have too.
We sit it out and wait....
Good times ahead me thinks.
;o)
I'm not expecting it to fall too much further...if at all.

The first GM animal could help feed the world

Ever since dwarfs and Siamese twins have been paraded as circus entertainment, we have been fascinated by so-called freaks of nature. But only now are we starting to understand the genetic causes. The first sequencing of the human genome took ten years, cost $3bn and was completed in 2003. Since then there has been an extraordinary advance in our ability to sequence the genome of living things, from the human body down to the humblest bacteria.

All over the world biotechnologists are mapping genomes, the recipe for life. Armed with this knowledge, it is possible to alter the recipe through genetic manipulation, and today genetically modified crops are grown in over 40 countries. Take this example...

Just before Christmas I spotted one of the most significant announcements of 2012, from Aqua Bounty Technology Inc (ABTX), a US company that has its shares traded on AIM.

The US Food and Drug Administration has indicated its inclination to approve Aqua Bounty's AquAdvantage Salmon, having found that they are safe to eat and do not pose a threat to the environment. These salmon are created by inserting the growth hormone gene from the Chinook salmon into Atlantic salmon eggs, which allows them to reach market size in half the time of conventional Atlantic salmon. Furthermore, and to heed off any criticism that they could breed with and destroy natural salmon, these genetically engineered fish will be sterile, exclusively female and grown in landlocked pools. This salmon could be the first GM animal to hit the dinner table. That is stunning news for diners, for farmers, for all those concerned with feeding the world's population – and for biotechnology.

I strongly believe there are huge profits to be made in biotechnology. It is a topic I have become fascinated with in the last couple of years. That's why I am going to offer you a unique chance of exploiting this booming industry with me. Very soon I'll show you where you could make huge profits in this rapidly growing industry. I'll be sending you details of how you can join me on this journey in the coming month or so.

Stay tuned.

Good investing,

A bit odd, that 1 mm moved the bid up....on no trades.
Will we see a delayed buy this week?
This co' could make a bloody fortune in time...
That's why Randal(Intrexon) has taken a large stake....imho.
Long and very strong....I've done enough research(as much as I possibly can) to know what that billionaire(Randal Kirk) is about!
Enjoy ye ole ride.....
;o)

[lufc5] 14/1/2013 11:59

Bid ticked up on no apparent trades....

[goz1986] 14/1/2013 11:57

I am still holing. Never been a trader, I tend to hold on to stocks for a long time sometimes to my detriment sometimes not. Complete understand why you sold some/all though, taking a 200% profit is not exactly shabby!

[bronislav] 14/1/2013 11:18

Xcap .ive no doubt it will go back up depending on approval .very few shares available so any sustained demand will outstrip supply and then its .BINGO!
