I just took a punt on 100 SPCE @ 20.26
Then I went to look for reasons why it was down.... great. Should have done it the other way round!!

The Reddit crew have been all over it last week.
Sold out 2 weeks ago as nothing was happening for ages... Would have been £15k clear profit. Just my luck. I seem to be great at finding the right shares just terrible at timing the buy/sell lol.
Is this the ticker MNMD that has fallen 30% in the last week?

A few on here hold it, what’s the attraction?

Looks like a horrible PnD shape over last 6 months

Well that was a damp squib!

I was watching it heading North at great pace...and now it has dropped again like a stone frown It wasnt long ago and it was over .0045

All my US shares (worst is Virgin Galactic) are doing pants today!
Soon as i saw the 0.0027 (x2) come up it was a no brainer to take original investment out and leave the rest to do its thing (whatever that may be) and if it falls back down to 0.0011 i'll go back for a top up.

Tbh I don’t know. I think they are supposed to make their first test flight soon and I think the drop today on having to restate numbers due to regulatory changes isn’t a big deal but maybe I am wrong.

Pumped in anticipation of test flight in Feb, but had a misfire on the flight so aborted after 1second. Their social media team is pants and barely give any updates, test flight expected in May. If successful price will rocket literally.

Placing announcement from NGHT, shares have tumbled.

Profit RNS from ARG, shares gone down.

EUA doing its thing.

I can be thankful for TED at least.

Definitely not watching AMGO and counting the profit missed by trying to get in cheaper.

I hereby christen them Nightcrap PLC.

I can't blame them for making use of the share price where it was, although the 21p they issue shares at to make the purchase is a monster discount to the price on Friday. It'll be interesting to see what they can place shares at for cash for that element of the deal, but given it is now sitting at 28p-ish it's hard to see it being vastly more than 21p. I'm sure 500 miles knows what the score is but I'd imagine he's an insider...

Having taken a (very) quick look at the target companies, they don't seem to have been making money pre-covid so who knows what the state of them is now. There are also recent charges against several of them and a number of new companies set up in the last couple of months, so it would be interesting to investigate the full story there.

Hi Chris, I've accepted that I dropped a goolie by selling recently and have bought back in this morning after selling off GGP, EMH & AEG. All in the red unfortunately. Hope to make up those losses in the big sombrero market.
Nearly dumped PHE & EQT as well but there's still hope for them. The Mexicans may still be an in and out but I should have stuck with my thoughts from long ago that they will come good.

Same boat here, but decided to swallow my pride and have bought back in, through gritted teeth. Profit is profit, even if less than it would/should have been, and this AMGO is the definition of this thread. In to win, but prepared to lose also.

Might watch NGHT today. I more than doubled on them before getting out at mid 30s. Tempting.
