Bripoz , a very enlightened share holder ! Bravo for your post . As previously posted , sorry ! As a major shareholder in top twenty and have been for for a long , long , long , long time ,This stock has been unfortunately been manipulated long enough by one or maybe two share holders , I used to have lunch and discussions with Malcolm and his predessor for years on progress of VLA , nothing illegal general conversation on technical parts that we lay people cannot understand . VLA is THE most weirdly traded stock that I have ever owned , VLA management have a responsibility to look after all share holders , I find it pitiful that they did not open the last capital raise to us mums and dads and kept a cap on what we were allowed to purchase , but gave their insto mates what ever they wanted . May I also gripe for a moment the free shares they also received themselves . Surely they should show some conviction of their own work and buy themselves on market . I also reiterate , when it is known a major holder is selling most management will find a home for those shares not to disrupt the ebb and flow of a normal market , I can assure you , that I have made noise to management on several occassions re the manipulation , obviously to deaf ears . Don't get me wrong I still believe we will have an out come which will be positive , but am no longer happy with management and believe , and wait for it , Need to change the CEO and Board it is not them that will make us successful it is CAVATAK , And am almost ready to apply for the registry so I can address this issue on behalf of all other share holders , but with out a current top twenty , have no visual of what sort of shareholder support I may get . Have a look at Sirtex , with a slightly flawed trial result , they dropped $900 million market cap , but have since recovered that $900 mil we are still languishing at $150 mil . I ask you what is our board and CEO doing to raise interest in our stock ??? Do they road show to the broader finance community ???? Are they saddled up with one particular broker ?? Do they pay Eddison and Roth capital for a bit of marketing ??? If it is paid for you don't get real support . And think they have done their job ??? They are scientists after all , what would they know about making a buck other than lining their own pockets with free shares , why were these shares not based on a milestone of a market cap ???
We are lucky to have 1,000 reads on a post in hotcopper , a new company CM8 can have up to 25,000 reads ie 25 times more interest , why ? CEO getting out there and spruiking . Unfortunately this company I think is borne from the old men's club mentality , I can just see the board smoking cigars around the table at their board meeting and talking about how good they are . Time to move on with new management to get the show on the road ! Give me a thumbs up if you agree . I will send this to management , after I may receive a reply for my request for top 20 again , which I have discovered they have an obligation to upon such request .
PS , I also have had discussions with VLA about the prospectivity of CAVATAK being a prevention as apposed to cure and it was never denied . But this would take 100 years to trial .
We will succeed I am sure , however ,
I truely believe we will succeed with a better board and management !!!!!
