presume this is related in some way to the decline in tesla share price - not that it makes much sense just looking for a reason where there is probably none!

Sooty . You old cynic ! Seriously , the shares in Kape Plc drifted for some time a year ago , dropping to £ 1.50 and then we learnt there was a fund raising at £ 1.50 ! Kape shares are now about £ 4.10 . More recently , shares in Xl Media drifted down to about 35p , and then there was a flurry of director buying ( three , I think ) , and the share price is already back to about 52p . So , do the market makers accumulate a large quantity of shares in order to fill major orders by dropping the price ? I really cannot say . However , has there been any substantive change in Volex in the last couple of days ? As far as I / we know , there have been none , so I’ll just grin and bear it whilst awaiting the recovery of the share price . Good luck all .

Hmmmmmm. The old cynic in me may think this was manipulated so someone could make a large purchase after hours. All will be revealed

I hold with a decent sized position but I never ever add on weakness - good luck if you did. Still looks fine to me

[melody9999] 09/11/2021 19:01

Yeah - I added too Hydrus

[hydrus] 09/11/2021 18:45

Added more just before the close. An obvious LTH

I wouldn't have thought that Nat would have purchased 250k worth last month, if they had supply issues. Also the coo purchased a large amount for his wife as well, recently...

[slipslopdop] 09/11/2021 17:57

Investors nervously awaiting comments regarding their supply chain on Thursday maybe??

[igoe104] 09/11/2021 17:50

TSLA have only fallen because musk is talking about selling 10% of his shares. (To pay some taxes)Crazy to think that would influence the fall of VLX. They must be some paranoid folks around , if that's the reason they are selling out. Plus TSLA is less than 10% of Vlx business anyway...

[insideryou] 09/11/2021 17:34

Wtf happened ?

[jqb1] 09/11/2021 17:33

This will fly tomorrow!

[bigbigdave] 09/11/2021 16:40

Ouch, bad day at the office. Probably following TSLA.

Test of 500p can't be far away now.

£50/100 per share would not surprise me as EV market is going to be very buoyant.

[deanowls] 06/11/2021 12:40

AIM suits the buy and build strategy I believe.

At some point, I would expect VLX management to expand the range of exchanges that offer VLX. AIM is the main exchange at the mo, but is a natural constraint with respect to increasing liquidity (ability for institutions, hedge funds, speculators to trade and hedge effectively). For a real increases in liquidity and potential share price rapid outperformance you need VLX to be traded on a major exchange that has fully fledged and regulated options market.

You are currently able to trade VLX via CFD/SB counter parties, but they will limit exposure and liquidity and contracts are exposed to counter party risk. Usually you don't have direct market access (DMA), and their phones and trading platforms tend to go quiet in times of frenetic trading, leaving traders exposed to large losses if they can't get out out of their positions pronto.

It's the option market which can "mechanically" cause underlying share prices to explode, or collapse for that matter. Witness how most Robinhood traders have been exploiting shares like GameStop, AMC etc. Of course, they thought that they were sticking it to the hedge funds etc., without realising the hedge funds and options brokers were actually trading against them and only a few Robinhooders got out with a profit. Still ...

So, a listing on NASDAQ (I guess Nat prefers a lightly regulated market, as he wants to control and stimulate VLX), and their option exchange would likely provide more potential upside for VLX over the next couple of years than any other manoeuvre , couple that with good EV news flow, excitable BB commentary and VLX could really motor.

£50 a share, £100 a share anyone ... :-)

Sweetunicorn, I'd agree with that, well said.

[ijamlon] 05/11/2021 14:25

IMO acquisitions aren't especially exciting for shareholders unless you're the one being acquired. They can add to earnings in the long run if well managed, but also bring risks. Maybe could add a few percent to share price

[tjbird] 05/11/2021 14:18

Might be an acqusition on the day, and 600p

[ijamlon] 05/11/2021 14:15

Today's no-news rally with high volume is curious. Wider market is strong but not unusually so. Maybe a big buyer as someone suggested. Maybe the results and roadshow being anticipated. Maybe the results have leaked, as this is the point in time the embargoed information starts to be distributed. (I have no evidence at all of this, just pondering out loud)

[tjbird] 05/11/2021 12:31

[lomax99] 05/11/2021 11:44

Speculation, no RNS?

[dicktrade] 05/11/2021 11:42

Blackrock increasing their position

[sooty snipes] 05/11/2021 11:30

Giddy up Volex!
