Am invested in Sigmaroc mainly because of Greenbloc. As soon as developers start to fully adopt this product, the potential is massive, would transform this company, perhaps even become Greenbloc PLC .
An article regarding the freighting of some of Breedon's materials for those interested in the company.

With free share trading platforms, it means that less well off individuals are enabled to acquire shares in tiny quantities more economically. If it comes to the choice of two pints or two Darktrace shares some wise decisions can be made. Particularly if this behaviour is repeated regularly without selling.
A well timed buy. The weather forecast for the next few weeks is very favourable, offering the prospect of warm and dry weather. Should mean that any trading figures achieved since limited reopening, will be dwarfed over the coming weeks. Summer is well and truly coming.
With positive news coming from BREE this news is confirmation of expectations. Actually relative to last year they are doing better so far this year.
The news on Greenbloc, suggests that it is attracting interest rather than many orders yet. If the housebuilders are being too cautious to adopt, Sigmaroc should ensure that local councils are made aware of this greener product. Afterall it is they that give out the planning permission. The rns states more news to come on Greenbloc. Am looking forward to that.

FY Results scheduled for July 27.
An inevitable loss for the year, but not one that will damage the company. The BoD have demonstrated their competence by preparing for full reopening to maximise every opportunity for increasing sales, whilst reducing costs with improved operation not only this summer but also going forward.
Andrew Tsonchev, Darktrace, Director of Technology, just been interviewed on Bloomberg. In answering questions, he has been passing on his considerable knowledge of the threat posed by ransomeware. The Colonial Pipeline systems and others in the US are antiquated and hard to protect. Without directly selling Darktrace, he has made it clear that AI cybersecurity is the way forward.
Likely to be a large surge in business this coming year, from this exposure.
Just been highlighted on Bloomberg television @16:32 UK time. "Getting into a deal with Microsoft". Will increase international awareness.
'That would be nice, but that's almost 1 75% premium over last night's close (460p), which I think is not likely.'
I've bought a few below £4.60 because the company is worth much more than the current valuation. Do you think I'm going to be selling for peanuts? Can afford to sit and wait till the skies open up. It is not as if all revenues have dried up. There is the Defence division. The US are flying internally now. Other flights are taking place, some aircraft have been stripped down to carry a full load of freight, which used to be shipped on passenger flights. There is also the Energy division. Meggitt will be trimming their operating costs and getting by. Do you imagine the BoD were thinking yesterday that's all we are worth? They will not be accepting any offers that substantially undervalue the company, as they do not need to sell.
Imho would have to be over 800p to be even considered.

Better than TBC but still just the months. A rns notifying the Finals date very soon?
My extract from the document has been removed. What it was saying was that their Antigena system can autonomously remove a threat in seconds. Much quicker than trying to contact a human to make a decision, especially at night and at weekends.
This is from the Darktrace Registration document (page33)
The biggest worry Darktrace have is that AI will be developed to attack systems that their current AI can't defeat. There is a cyber-security arms in progress. Darktrace will be working constantly to improve their algorithms to protect contracted businesses worldwide and their own financial future.
The good news for shareholders is that the sp rise over the last year means that raising this £5.5m is only dilutive by 9%. The placing last March 27 to raise £5m @30p per share, diluted by 39% .
If Pci-Pal is going to be successful in Europe, the company will probably have to open a small sales and billing office in the EU. If they haven't got one already.
Good Morning, I'll leave the technical stuff to the experts. I hope that if BT do a deal, it is with Amazon. Have tried Amazon Prime on my tv to watch Leeds United, which is just a case of pressing the button on the remote. No boxes required, picture quality brilliant. If BT Sport became an add-on to Amazon Prime, would not be upset. No need for filler programming, channels and scheduling, just sport on demand either live or recorded. With the right deal the benefit for BT is surely with EE and Amazon Prime deals.
km, I found a rns dated 31 July 2019 regarding holdings in the company (BREE) - Octopus Investment Nominees Limited. Obviously they must use the nomenclature to hide the ultimate destination of the shares. Likely though that the purchase is at least partially for this fund. Do HL have details of any other Octopus funds?
Today's results announcement gives an indication of how close 1Spatial are to bottom line profitability. The rns states:
> The pipeline of sales opportunities and committed revenue in all regions is significantly stronger than a year ago<
The other rns today, advises of share purchases by both the CEO and CFO. Which is a good sign, bearing in mind their shareholdings prior to this.
IMHO not a time to sell this stock, now that the company has a track record of delivering.
