Versarien Share Discussion Threads

ax/john - if jak really is bright, he will have seen that we have good support at 120 and volume is very light. It doesn't take an Einstein sized brain to realise that he's not going to get in much cheaper..

Just a quick thank you Mike (and SG) for conveying the basic science of graphene understandable. I readily admit that I still don't fully understand, got my head around a fraction of the more detailed aspects yet - never will. I suppose all I need to know is that it works and that its going to be globally disruptive. Thank you again for sharing your know how.

Maybe Jak is already short with his head well under water and is trying reduce his losses? If he was to close his position and invest long with Versarien he might be able to recoup some of his losses, but maybe he isn’t psychologically able to do that?

[johnveals] 09/8/2018 19:46

The thing about the shorters is that they are facing unlimited losses.

[axotyl] 09/8/2018 19:46

Woody, I'm inclined to agree, but there's a chance that Jak is bright enough to work out that VRS is worth long-term consideration; narrow odds, I'll concede.

The simple question is what you're trying to say, Sonny?

[sonsonnyjim] 09/8/2018 19:38

I don't understand the question, simply wondering when the shorters will give up..

[woodpeckers] 09/8/2018 19:38

Don't know if anyone has noticed but the likes of Jak only post when news goes quiet for a while and they know that they'll get attention because we're all just hovering around the board.

He's a pure attention seeker as far as I'm concerned. He has nothing to add but knows that by giving the contradictory view, he will get the attention he craves... sad really.

"I'm assuming once us cert and a deal gp through eg someone like Nike"

Give us a clue, SonSonny?

[sonsonnyjim] 09/8/2018 19:26

At what point do the shorts give up? I'm assuming once us cert and a deal gp through eg someone like Nike

[jointer13] 09/8/2018 19:23

jeez..you boys are getting absolutely desperate.

you must feel there's big news coming soon..just as we do

nice post mike.

[ellissj] 09/8/2018 19:07

Thankful shareholder here for all the hard work neill and co put in. Best ellis.

[anotherdrink] 09/8/2018 19:05

RNS tomorrow? :)

[sonsonnyjim] 09/8/2018 19:02

Haha GG shorts. Neil likes a positive tweet but that's a confirmation

[jkok1] 09/8/2018 18:58

dgduncan. On the certificate 25531 I agree with you and I do not think that this is going to be properly resolved until we get ISO DTR 19733 in place probably at the end of the year. I know that NR said that it was imminent a few months ago but he was being over optimistic which is why he has now opted for the Graphene Council Verified Producer Program. I am not sure how valuable this will be but I guess it is better than nothing. I would have preferred a GEI/NPL certification now that it is being rolled out. Getting this whole area of certification sorted is a major requirement for commercialisation but we are in the hands of the relevant ISO Committee and this is not being led by the UK (led by Korea and the USA) although we are a major contributor of course. I suspect that there are commercial interests lobbying the relevant committees to make sure their interest are taken into account which adds to the delay.

[bootie64] 09/8/2018 18:56

It's pretty obvious both here in this forum and twitter that shorts are getting desperate :)

[hsdeo] 09/8/2018 18:54

PS - my first post on VRS :-)

[hsdeo] 09/8/2018 18:53

Neill tweeted "Just busy , but you guys are going to like my work..."

[richardc77] 09/8/2018 18:52

Nice tweet by Neill tonight, roll on next week ;) Sleepless weekend for shorts?

[johnveals] 09/8/2018 18:36

And mikebrenner comes along to deliver the coup de grace.

[mikebrenner] 09/8/2018 18:32

Sorry pressed send to early!! The sales XG Sciences make are mainly testing samples - where they are likely making progress with their nano graphite is in areas like batteries providing their graphite (same as talga et al + VRS recent collaborations show there are greater improvements when using their Nanene vs graphite)and coatings (anti flammable / corrosive). Unfortunately they are competing with 400+ companies globally who can do the same so no pricing power. The thing to really look for are independent scientific studies of a companies "graphene" as this sorts the wheat from the chaff and XG unfortunately have shown the latter.

[dgduncan] 09/8/2018 18:24

jkok1 - I have not found any info regarding who awarded the certificate or what their qualifications might be. Sounds a bit dubious to me.

[mikebrenner] 09/8/2018 18:23

JakNife - thank you for sharing some alternative views on this board. I personally appreciate a kicking of the investment thesis tyres! In relation to XG sciences they don't make few layer graphene but nano graphite which means for any applications needing structural / strength needs they fail - see independent study here https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S026635381732482XAs they have been around for 15yrs they have more sales
