So here is a new title

This one has got the charts at the top again & has a link to the old one.

another large buy 500k at 37

Has anybody read anything lately about OXB ? - something has put the spooks up investors or mms.

It's just shorters IMHO.
UC.

I've just read this item in tonight's Stock Market report from UK-Analyst. Their view is that today's slide in the share price is unwarranted!

Oxford BioMedica, the gene therapy company, saw its shares ease 2.5p to 27.5p as investors bailed out on news of an imminent fundraising. The slide would appear to have been unwarranted, with the company announcing good progress with its registration plans and details of a Phase III trial with its lead cancer immunotherapy, TroVax, in renal cell carcinoma. Meanwhile, it was news of a proposed 20-30 million dollar placing and open offer that concerned investors, who speculated over what level of discount might or might not be applied.

Not sure why the sp reacted so badly to speculation of fundraising. The fundamentals haven't changed and they still have plenty of cash in the bank. They want to fasttrack the trials without delay of signing up a partner (although thats still a possibility) AK is obviously very confident and by going it alone will mean all the more benefit to shareholders, whilst control is very much with OXB. Personally I think going it alone would be the better option and 20-30m worth of shares bought by institutions at a discount is small price to pay, may even be at a premium!! No bad news here, in fact OXB now even more vulnerable to a bid which would be a great shame. Should soon return to 40p and on to 50+ once this glitch has been forgotten.

Whats more, the shorters of this stock will have to buy back soon, that has only just begun, a lot of automatic trades coming in now. There isn't going to be much selling at this price, Placing or no Placing.

Buys outnunbering sells but mms reluctant to raise the price, analysing the trades over the past week, mms must have lost a lot, they were buying in down to current levels and now buyers are mopping them back at lower prices, it shouldn't be long before a rally, some news would help re the placing at 33p which i heard was the minimum being considered, or someone building a stake which is most likely at these prices.

somethings been leaked - see over on Advfn re govt funding, could be interesting, no need for the placing?

Up 14% since 2.00pm today, anyone know why?

Now 19% wow!

Placing must have closed and as I said it's well oversubscribed and not at a discount. Shorters have to close their positions so this will bounce quicker than they can get back in.

some say the 30p level for the placing is fact, one bloke on iii forecast a big rise this pm, when the price was minus, excellent.

Share price fell from 45p to 25p much like VOG did! Placing completed last month as happened with VOG. Keep a watchful eye on OXB.News is expected soon and buyers returned today after retrace.Needs to hold support at 30p and breakout occurs above 32.5p. Personally expecting shorter and swifter rise back to 45p target price.Short term moves suggest 34p-36p.Plenty more news expected in 2006.Chart has resumed rising trend and high volumes by close today.

----------------------

The deal could come as early as this week, this would place another 15p on the share price to around 45p.

Very strong start for the week ahead. I repeat again, the T.A is excellent and at the very start of a solid uptrend with the cross almost in place up to 40p

May be lucky to buiy on any dip 33p-33.5p. Target 40p-45p on TA and without news.More immediate target 34p-36p

Pushed higher 33.5p-34p.Likely to be re-rated buy to strong buy based on chart and ma if closes above 32.5p.
