I have seen a very cheering article about some of the expected profits and further potential in some of SMT's investments!

I will try and seek it out.

Still not out of the woods with making up the loses , but where are the tw&ts who said 2023 the shares were going to be penny shares!

Broken £8. Looking increasingly like a bowl.

Pleased that we are, obviously not the only ones who like this!

I thought this was a bit harsh but they always do treat what they see as a financial crime,more harshly than anything else.
That's capitalism for you.



Nvidia gets a mention.

Talking of Moderna, (someone was)apparently their shares have rallied somewhat and this is due to results of a clinical trial making a step forward in the field of mRNA technology. This trial of a new Moderna vaccine found that it reduces the chance of relapse or death from skin cancer by half when paired with Merck's immunotherapy drug Keytruda.

There may be a need for another trial to confirm this but Moderna hopes regulators will ensure the treatment is available to patients, as early as 2025. Merck and Moderna are testing the combination in other cancers, with a late - stage trial in lung cancer started recently. It's thought the findings above will give a boost to Moderna's post pandemic strategy of developing new applications for it's mRNA technology.

It has a long way to go to get back into my good books. A looooong way!

Seem to be some taking advantage of a dip.

[hazl] 18/12/2023 20:51

This one has so many strings to it's bow.


That's what I like.

[hazl] 17/12/2023 11:35

on the space theme found the above older article interesting.

1.

Just for the record.

Friday's after-hours RNS re Share-Buyback.

This is the SIXTH company purchase of shares in a month.

That's really good.

Combined with general good news from USA, this bodes very well indeed for ScoMo.

Observers will already have noted just how much the Discount-to-NAV has recently and already tightened.




2.

The elefant in the room.... Next year US Presidential elections.

This is what the bookies think

Trump to win 6-5
Biden to win 2-1


The bookies clearly place opinion-dividing Trump as the favourite to be next US President.


It is to be recalled that the markets boomed under Trump's last presidency.



ALL IMO. DYOR.
