HSR performance since Jan 2015 +24%

2018 -11.3%

Those figures are for the Portfolio as a whole.


The 2018 figure is softened as many of the long term holds are in a confirmed down trend and have had significant value knocked off them in previous years, for example CPT,KEFI,MIN,OBT,NIPT,UJO WSBN.

The performance from 2015 is surprising though, if they had cut their losers sooner, at say 30% instead of letting them run to up to -80% then returns would have been quite impressive.

Hey PJ, are those HSR stats for NIPT or their tips? I would have thought both were worse than -11%.

yes indeed Ironman, also a new CEO with more commercial nous than SL, who is better off in the labs imo!
The opportunity in India alone could yield test sales into 6 figures quite quickly too.

I think people are underestimating the positive significance of the illumina litigation coming to a close. The board can now concentrate 100% on growing the business and with the litigation settled Premaitha can now operate in countries that it could not before which will open up a much larger global addressable market, contributing significantly to revenue growth.

Correct. Selling now is foolish.

[captain_kurt] 03/10/2018 12:10

Buying opp. Lots of newsflow to come

[dibs61] 03/10/2018 11:25

hjb - nice try but NO the placing was NOT known when I called it last friday morning. You were still in denial. Yes I did say I'd be surprised if they got 10p - I hold my hands up on that.


I sold out because the share price was signalling something was wrong. Right again eh? So I'm not trashing anything just saying it how I see it. No intention of getting back in. As for 'jogging on' I think I'll stick around as long as I fancy actually.

[hjb1] 03/10/2018 10:17

Dibs, lol! you 'forecast' things that are already out there, yes even before you post them and make out you're the first ha ha!
You really do need you ego massaging don't you lol!(some reading for you )
You also 'forecast' that the placing wouldn't be 10p but lower didn't you, got that wrong too then!
Maybe you should work for the weather channel they get it mostly wrong too, or state the bleeding obvious just like you it seems!
Anyway, bottom line is not keen on peeps who sell out then trash the company, so jog on.
My only concern is there enough funding/sales to get this into profit,..I believe there is!

[dibs61] 03/10/2018 09:12

timo - probably not going much lower than this I agree. I am less convinced about a resumption of the uptrend though. It was not just the placing that slammed the brakes on but the much worse than expected results. Not only is break even at least 12 months if not more away but revenue growth was not as strong as hoped for.

There seems to be a view that they will produce a positive news flow prior to the AGM. To do that you've got to have tangible positive news and where's that coming from in the next few weeks? I see this bumping along in a range between say 9-11p for the foreseeable until something sufficently positive comes along to kickstart again. BUT, against that is the certainty that there will be more fundraising within the next few months and if the share price doesnt kick on then investors will be unwilling to pay 10p again!

[timojelly] 03/10/2018 09:01

Let's be honest though Dibs, it ain't going much lower than this. When the dust has settled this week we should return to the uptrend.

[dibs61] 03/10/2018 08:58

You always know when a stock is failing because BB bullies start making personal attacks on people who don't share their rosy tinted view. Its a distraction that helps them to forget their failing investment.

Oh btw the share price has now ticked under 10p. ANOTHER thing I forecasted correctly hjb1 (apart from the placing) and that you poo pooed last week.

[pj 1] 03/10/2018 08:52

HSR performance since Jan 2015 +24%

2018 -11.3%

[timojelly] 03/10/2018 08:49

You couldn't make this up. I feel sorry for those who have just bought around 15p and are now already 30% down on paper. At least it took me about 4years to be 80% down!

[ikeadave] 02/10/2018 23:13

21.6 in 6 months will do ... place your bets!!

[twix386] 02/10/2018 22:17

No, but we were meant to be at 25p by xmas and then recently revised to 21.6p in 6 months.Premaitha: when rhetoric fails reality.I wonder what the next TW@ prediction will be in his 3 year run of spectacular egg on face.

[the monkster] 02/10/2018 21:46

Were we not meant to be at 30p by now ??

[slartybartfaster] 02/10/2018 21:03

You want proof, :)

[slartybartfaster] 02/10/2018 21:02

My mate has a blog lol

[ikeadave] 02/10/2018 20:42

Do you have a blog too?

[the monkster] 02/10/2018 20:34

Looks like we will be back to 6-8 territory pretty soon.

Anybody with any sense is alf. Probably read my blog post ;).

Ikea, No, he keeps his dogs under the radar. If you click on his profile you will eventually come across his longs, most have bombed, and always paints a wonderful picture for long term growth, even though the long term trend is down. He spends his time trolling TW tips and given his track record, its easy pickings. Quite what set him off on the trolling campaign is anyone's guess, perhaps, my money is on Michaelmouse lost his shirt investing in Rivington street fund ran by TW.
