It’s not a case of “sticking one’s head” in the sand...it’s having faith that management know what they are doing and not trying to “second guess ” on the “why” they do the things they do.
If I felt that I had made a mistake in my investment decision and in trusting them, I would have moved on and not bitch on an anonymous MB on every misstep, missteps or missed deadline. Sure, I agree there have been many.
I’ve been in NWBO for 6+ years and if I have to live with yet another missed deadline or indication of a missed one, I’ll live with it and not get my panties in a knot.....my eyes are focussed on THE announcement that will determine its corporate survival and not base it on some business “podcast” that “the expectation of news will be in a few weeks”. Is there a possibility that he may have misspoken and may have meant to say “next week”? ....so whatever the interpretation or misrepresentation.....a seasoned investor knows not to be swayed by emotions.....bottom line is, if they missed another one....so what?
TLD will not change but the price may....to the frustration of Traders who tried to “time” their trades...if you are a seasoned trader you will know...timing a trade is a fool’s game, unless you are insider trader.....
I don’t know from which planet some “big time city fund managers” operate on but here on planet earth it’s the 25th day of September 2020 and we are still IN the month of September 2020 and I don’t see any missed deadlines!
Man, there are too many snipers and whingers in this investment! Sad....no temperament for the investment game!
WFH sure has a strange effect on these city investment folks....here in the ‘burbs we still use planet earth calendars!
......just can’t get good help these days!
As opposed to...”Dave, what time does Linda present at ABTA?”
Hang on, I’ll PR the time because I’ve got to let all the shareholders know!
Hmmm...always behind the curve and still learning!
Still at it eh....Ex?
You should know quite a bit about manipulation!
Good on you tryn2, don’t let the “sad sacks” and “angry people” get you down!
Continue to be the positive person that you are!
Go NWBO!
Great response to their perennial strategy of, if you can’t convince, apply the “contain and temper” expectations. Used to be “MAX $1” mantra! What bodes well for us true longs is that they have now increased the ceiling price to $4-$5.
Does it surprise you that their latest dance moves would be the “twist” (as in words) after doing the “limbo rock”...how low can the price go!
Yup, like a kinda of an “FYI”. I’ve learnt over the years...you seldom get a thanks but if it goes south...no end of it...!
However, for NWBO, I’m guilty of being a bit more enthusiastic in my “presentation”! Lol
AP,
Thanks for sharing your “team’s” hard work with us!
GLTALs
tryn2,
LOL, most of us true longs here can empathise with what you have just described and yet we have managed to keep it all together! We have recommended this stock to family and friends because we truly believe that it will be a success!
When we recommend or tell the circle around us about the potential of a stock, of a good and trustworthy mechanic or a certain dish at a restaurant and they follow through on it based on our recommendation, it is implicit that they trust us and that we told them is out of a genuine desire to share something good and to “Prosper thy Neighbour” and not “Beggar” them!
If subsequently the investment goes south or gets delayed for whatever reason, they should not blame you nor hold you responsible because your advice or “stock tip” was given gratis and in good faith to begin with. For me, I only give such “tips” to friends and family that I know will take it with no “warranties” attached.
I’m not sure with the other posters here and in what capacity they conveyed their recommendation, as a friend or an investment advisor or whatever but their reaction to a failure or delay in NWBO can be met either with patience, humour or vitriol. Most probably if their reputation, credibility and ego got dented, their vitriol then becomes the order of the day. There are also “agent provocateurs” whose sole intention is to foment “shareholder indignation” and hope it spreads and discourages further support or new investors and cause price deterioration!
Obviously you gave your “stock tip” in good faith and you have spread the gospel according to Dr.Linda Liau and Ms. Powers, so fear not, the “kingdom” is at hand :) you have done your “missionary” work and prepare to reap your rewards and the abundant harvest!
Of course, I get good natured ribbing whenever I meet any of my family and friends but I keep them updated on developments (quite easy to do as there hasn’t been many updates over the years lol) and when they do ask, I tell them that the grass I’m watching has only grown “an eighth of an inch“ since the last time they asked and “yes, we are not there yet” ! Now, I can happily tell them that TLD will be in a couple of months time and they can then consider “trimming the lawn”!
Till then....here’s the latest PR....job done!
...lest we forget...
Buzdar had a brush with the unethical (?) “premature” release of data when he was a member of a team that was on another clinical trial? We are now having a rerun of the thread from YMB....kinda recalled the “starring roles” on that episode was Jerry (if it was not you Jerry, apologies) and/or another wannabe....after it was researched and highlighted that Buzdar was calling the “...kettle black”...the topic faded into obscurity!
Your current research did not unearth that? Hmmm...DD getting a bit tardy, eh old chap!
Agreed.
She did not quit during the company’s darkest moments of attacks by pseudo biopharma analysts, an anonymous Phase V poison report, temptation to R/S just to stay listed on NASDAQ, defend frivolous lawsuits, baseless accusations of misappropriations and idiotic assertions that her fund raises were just a means to collect her monthly pay checks....and then give it all away for a song?
Borrowing and paraphrasing Scooter’s mirror image / counter party....”Hey F..dream on!”
She kept the ship on course with her loyal crew to help her navigate the “shark infested” waters....and yet the disgruntled stale bulls / newly minted investors (some fake ones too) are bitching about delays?
We are literally at “the finish line” and we would NOT be here but for their dedication (yes, it is a vocation and not just a job) and these “snipers” keep on taking potshots at the management!
Preference, (unless it’s a BO offer that we can’t refuse) I’d go for a partnership for L and licence out bits of Direct for different cancer trials, not unlike MS or IOS to get different “App Developers” to bring it to market.
Going it alone, IMO, would not be the best route to maximize DCVax’s disruptive potential.
AIMO
To true longs, steady as she goes!
You keep on spreading misinformation on what the implications are for a soft Vs hard lock is all about in a blinded trial!
Do you even have an idea of the pros and cons of declaring one?
Research, ask and learn.
Surely you want to be at least be with the curve rather than be always behind it...!

Tutorial Notes #1 :
Database soft lock also known as database freeze is a milestone defined in the Statistical Analysis Report and is most commonly defined as the point where all case report form data has been input into the database and all known queries are resolved. When soft lock is declared, the edit rights of all data entry and data management personnel are rescinded so that only the Lead Data Manager has the ability to modify the database.
You have a phalanx of “lawyers, CPAs, armchair Generals and Monday morning quarterbacks” to assist you on this MB, and you can invite them to join the “ping pong” game too!
I’m running late....going to court....errr...Squash court that is!
Interesting positive possibility.
Thanks, I’ve always loved the vid and song!
YLol, a practicing lawyer getting outside counsel!
Ok, I’ll entertain you....I ask Mr. Practicing lawyer to pick an answer from a whole paragraph of multiple choices (you have reposted for convenience and easy reference)....afraid your “client” chose the M&A possibility to highlight and debate.
I rest my case.
EOM
Before we change topics, you still haven’t quite addressed my post as to “who introduced the M&A angle......no credibility to even comment on my posts.
Till then, your comments are quite irrelevant.
Senti,
Some rather obtuse posters are (or in some cases purposefully) ignoring the fact that we are in the 21st century and the role of the CIO is crucial for cross border operations. If NWBO were to begin commercialisation of its vaccine, this has to be put in place BEFORE operations begin otherwise (usual refrain) they would be an incompetent management with no foresight (damned if you do and ...). An IT systems network has to be set up...in ADVANCE. They also claim that “small” company’s accounts can be done in a day or that the CURRENT staff strength does not call for an IT system, a very myopic vision of a “soon to be” blockbuster pharmaceutical company.
Her current role change, deemed to be a “demotion” to insinuate “dissatisfaction” in the performance of a C-suite member, hmmm....very “demoralizing” for us shareholders! Quite a team of “Tokyo Roses” on this MB!
Jean’s absence at the ASM (btw still flogging that dead horse) created a “winning FUD trifecta”, underperforming new hire, a demotion and her absence at the ASM. Good job guys, it has now morphed into a “sky is falling” event.
(Note to self : must investigate if Jean is being held against her own freewill at NWBO given that she got demoted, was asked to sign an illegal statement (which she refused to), did not want to attend the ASM in protest and tasked to do a job she is under qualified to be effective in.... why don’t I just resign rather than suffer these “indignities” ...hmmm...I wonder...given my qualifications...can I even get a job...with no good references pandemic...)
Today’s price action, I reckon, was an attempt to “show” that Mr. Market was not “happy” with this management reshuffle but it rated only a ”pfffttt” moment that resulted in a massive drop of $0.005.
Mr. Market did not buy into this narrative because it was a non event and probably they also had a 21st century understanding of the crucial function that CIOs play in a company with cross border operations and a semi automated production system (to be fully automated if future plans materialize)
Btw, in some of our investee companies,, the CIOs often call the shots and the CFO defers to him or her.... welcome to the 21st Century IoT,
So Senti, I wouldn’t bother too much in trying to convince them otherwise.
Best wishes to you and thanks for your many contributions to this MB!
GLTALs
Thanks alphapuppy for your great painstaking work and analysis.
Looking forward to your next “movie”!
....read the thread before you post any rebuttals.
Hint#1:
Who introduced the M&A angle and what was the original content of my post? To refresh your memory, my post was about the CIO’s duties and that her time could be better spent and we should not speculate that it’s negative.
No talk of M&A, was there?
What was your rebuttal?
Read your own post on how and when you introduced M&A into the mix...was it after I had asked you to read the post by GGB? And you came to that conclusion all by yourself, right? Tsk Tsk....
That’s their job spec!
She was not “sent away” (in your words) NOT DUE to a M&A exercise...she is taking up a new appointment as a CIO.
Speculate to your heart’s content as to why LP wants to take on CFO duties...mayhaps....to be hands on...to....
EOM
Your response and dropping the pretensions of “lawyerspeak” speaks volumes.
My exercise is complete....I can now data lock your responses
A very “lawyerspeak”, response.
Good job.
You have applied the KISS principle to your choice in framing your response.
I’ll also apply the same principle to the available choices of conclusions that I can come to by your chosen response.
This is a multiple choice answer exercise.

CHOOSE YOUR POISON and please post your poison of choice or your own hypothesis.
BREAKING DOWN SEC Form NT 10-Q
SEC Form NT 10-Q is required to be filed within 45 days following the end of each of a company's first three fiscal quarters. If the 10-Q cannot be filed in a timely manner, the company must file a Form 10-QT with the commission. A very common reason for an NT 10-Q is a merger or acquisition, which prevents results from being incorporated in time for the filing. The SEC provides for "unreasonable effort and expense," with a suitable explanation, as part of the application for relief. Late filings may also be because of uncertainty surrounding litigation, due to a company’s auditor not having yet completed its review of the company’s operations, a sign of a company in financial distress, or because a company emerging from bankruptcy needs more time to complete the required disclosures.

MB Observations :
It’s a really interesting exercise to stay off the MB for a couple days to observe how the board’s narrative gets “hijacked” by “loud and / or KOLs” who set the narrative on any positive points and /or any announcements put out by the company.
Case in point, yesterday’s 8K. An innocuous corporate reshuffling, perhaps for Ms. Davis to play a more pivotal role as we begin commercial operations both in the States and overseas but the narrative turned totally negative. That’s how manipulative a pack can be. Even long time positive posters are against “the ropes” on defending a totally SPECULATIVE negative spin to the 8K!
Is a company “allowed” to reshuffle a senior executive to a more relevant position where she can better serve the company’s interest at a pivotal time in its life cycle? The narrative is they can’t.....they are conflating and obfuscating a simple reshuffle into, “replacing a dissenter, a conscientious objector, terms of her contract excludes her firing(?), screwed up German tax returns”, all possibilities and because of its plausibility, knee jerk reactions by true longs, play defensive, thereby perpetuating their negative narrative. Hello? She can always resign or whistleblow if such activities are going on! Oh, forgot....pandemic and she doesn’t want to line up for unemployment. Haven’t you heard of “complicity” to a crime on her part as the former CFO but still in the company’s employ? A crime, that is what some are perpetuating!
Want to positively spin the 8K? They are going into commercial operations and the role of a CIO is now more important to coordinate cross border operations and IT the system. The UK would probably come on line in the next few months and Ms. Davis’ time could be better spent coordinating than trying to balance simple bookkeeping accounts, after all, how much financial stuff can there be? The recent junior hire to NWBO will be better utilized to prepare and report the non complex accounts of the company. LP has been playing multiple roles to save the resources of the company, so, what’s new?
So what is so NEFARIOUS about the 8K?
Being “outside” and following the thread and narrative, it really gives you a perspective of how there are “wolves in sheepdogs’ clothing” who support the “shepherd” in his narrative and keep the posters focussed on the negative narrative. Please don’t take my word on this, read the thread from the moment it is posted that an 8K is out and the initial takes on it. Note the defensive positions longs have to take and the “sporadic” shots/barks by these “sheepdogs” to keep the posters headed to a “logical” conclusion and a final “take” on the announcement.
These “professionals” know that newbies and “investment scanners” often turn to MBs to get a pulse of the shareholders’ gripes and positive views and it will quickly be evident to a casual reader who the naysayers and longs are. Following just a few pages or threads, they can come to an erroneous conclusion that “even longs “ are not “happy” not knowing that they are “moles” or the genesis of the narrative! Effective FUD games!
I have chosen a different “take” on it and I’m not blind....I see as clearly as the “sighted” naysayers!
Again, something “good into bad”!
alphapuppy,
Thanks for your hard work and analysis!
Greatly appreciated.
In a nutshell,
the “Offer Price” and please don’t be like the other incessant poster who says anyone can buy billions of shares off the market but you know that already.... playing the old ‘45’s again?
alphapuppy,
Thanks for sharing your analysis and hard work.
Great stuff! DCVax L will not only help the patients but profit us loyal shareholders!
Sojourner...aptly said!
Thumbs Up!
No problem, they are running out of stuff to attack the company and it will become more and more outrageous as we get closer to TLD!
Good Luck to you!
Kabunushi,
Bio was responding to LC2020’s post calling the lender toxic. I posted a response to Bio’s to NOT respond because it brings their narrative to the top of the MB, thus perpetuating their FUD narrative and continual posts.
That’s why I didn’t respond directly to LC2020’s
Chill....
Bio,
They are just keeping it “hot” by refreshing and keeping it on top!
The team will then play “ping pong” to pursue the “Toxic Lender” narrative.
Lol...yeah, we did have a few exchanges on that!
Well, all that matters is that we are on the same side of the trade for NWBO.
On global politics...
“Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to do and die.”
Hope this will be another great trading day for us.
Good luck to you too!
Precisely!
The TPP was a long term strategy to contain China but Trump looks at everything from a P&L perspective or reality TV show! Always thinking how is he going to PR his Q1 or next annual report! He has 4 years to make good before the musical chairs begin again! Obama could do it because it was in his final term and putting something to bed like the TPP would have put together 40% of the global GDP under one pact, this to counter China’s BRI.
Note for Kam, be careful what you wish for, sanctions on Hong Kong will only hurt the little people (as sanctions have shown) the elite in any society will not be greatly affected. With sanctions, it’s an inconvenience to businesses but remember that HK’s contribution to the overall Chinese economy is not as large as it used to be, from 16% to only 3%!
Good luck to you too!
Let’s just enjoy the great trading day we are having.....!
Crediting me with statements from another post is clearly not acceptable to me nor does it bode well for a simple reading and comprehension exercise.
As much as he does not suffer whom he deems as fools, I abhor and don’t brook arrogance, condescending and rudeness in responses, after all, not everyone is a “CITY PLAYER”!
We are just small time simple investor folks who can only “be aghast” at arrogant and aggressive posts by big time city players and wonder if good manners only exist in the ‘burbs of the investment industry!
Poor comeback but hey.....I’ll take it...thanks for the Gold rating!
You claim to be an educated person, can you even read?
Where in my post did I claim “millions have been shorted”?
I just supported the assertion by the cartoonist that naked shorts exist and the very institutions that are policing it claim no naked shorting. So, where in my post did I say...”millions” or no shorting exists”?
For your easy reference :
