It's been a good trade for a few of us. :)
Whooooooosssssssh? |
![](https://images.advfn.com/static/default-user.png) I should declare here and now that I am a 'trader' in bird shares. I've never posted before but enjoy reading others posts and views. It seems some on here look down on people like ( which is one of the reasons I haven't posted before) but the objective of us all is to make money and short term trading is a legitimate way to do it.
The talk about the AIM is interesting but we shouldn't forget that it was set up as a platform to help small, high risk companies grow and give them access to capital without the regulation of the main exchanges. Therefore dilution and unpredictability is a given and there is no point moaning when it all goes pear shaped as it generally does with the majority of AIM shares over the years.It's not the AIM's fault,
I notice some moan about the inaccuracies of buys and sells but the transactions below the midpoint are not always sells and transactions above the mid point are not always buys.
I like bird as a share to trade. I won't post again because to be honest I'm not interested in the product and what it can do as it seems some on here are very savvy on the tech. I'm only interested in how the chapters of the story develop and how it affects sentiment and I trade on that basis. |
"AIM falls away potentially very large amounts will be paid by many current BIRD investors, especially IHT."
Technically the estate will pay it - not the investor, who will be dead. |
horneblower: I apologise for inadvertently misrepresenting your position. Holding BIRD through an ISA offers after 2 years of ownership complete exemption from UK IT, CGT and IHT. Unless that is re-enacted if AIM falls away potentially very large amounts will be paid by many current BIRD investors, especially IHT. |
Should be an interesting podcast Also a chance to get to know Nick Lisher |
cc, I did not mention IHT.
I don't think the outrageous system of delayed publication of trades is limited to AIM. Certainly it should be abolished and, as in the US, made illegal. |

Let's all blame AIM. Couldn't possibly be anything to do with the company having no profits for over a quarter of a century.... |
Rather than closing AIM, LSE could improve it, then it may have a chance of survival, particularly if the changes are applied as elevate.io starts receiving national and international attention and becomes a multi billion blockbuster. Blackbird could save AIM. AIM powered by Blackbird 😂 |
Chriscallen I totally agree with you. The share transactions should be reported with total accuracy and without delay. They should state buy or sell and never "unknown". What happens now feels like a form of deception and is less than truthful. If the government raises the rate of CGT without reintroducing an indexation allowance then that would be very unfair, because in some cases it would result in CGT being charged on share sales which are not profitable when inflation is taken into account. |
Definitely a surge in interest.
You would think an RNS would be close if they are going to do one at 50k registered users.
Some figures on usage and active users would be nice. |
The last insta video is powering ahead adding around 2K views over night to about 8.5k |
Whatever the "authorities" say, there is barely any regulation of AIM companies. It has become a viper's pit for unwary investors and has contributed to the demise of London as a world-class financial centre. |
AIM lost me my pension, so it's definitely a rubbish market place. What's all this hiding trades thing about? it's ridiculous. And all the institutional selling over the past 10 months without no RNS, it all seems to be about manipulation and whenever you see this, it's for someone else's gain. |
The AIM has lost its market credibility with the small investors. It's not an attractive investment platform anymore. |
ISA status would not be affected. |
HB.
Thanks. |

Presumably there would be some arrangement to be listed on the main market. That would involve more stringent auditing and a higher annual fee, but also direct trading on SETS. We should be going in that direction anyway. |
The problem in axing AIM is that there are some companies quoted on it that could be successful or even become unicorns. Axing it is bound to create an exodus of investors to NASDAQ and that would cause major problems for a Government that has put its focus on growth to dig the UK out of its economic hole. The main LSE market has failed miserably in his respect. Being reponsible for a successful BIRD transferring its listing to NASDAQ would not look at all good politically. |
