Always encouraging to see major shareholders and directors increasing their stake. I hold these but don't check much as there's not much to get excited about yet----maybe we're approaching a turning point??

fernandesb - 22 Oct 2007 17:31 - 4 of 64

i think this bit is important:

Commenting on the announcement, Sareums Chief Executive Officer, Dr Tim Mitchell, said: These discoveries represent a significant development in Sareums internal drug candidate portfolio with key assets identified against important cancer drug discovery targets. We are actively seeking licencing partners for these programmes to assist the advancement of novel chemical series through to clinical candidate nomination.

plus events:
# Global Pharma R&D Summit North America 2007, Boston USA, Oct 22nd and 23rd 2007.
# BIO Europe, Hamburg, Germany, Nov 12th-14th 2007.

and finally: AGM 15th November

So hopefully end of October we will see little gain

fernandesb - 23 Oct 2007 19:44 - 5 of 64

I noticed these buyers too, Fernandesb. Made an excellent profit with this share earlier in the year. Will probably buy some tomorrow, but would have to sell something first.

fernandesb - 23 Oct 2007 21:06 - 7 of 64

well, it is hard to say what is going on, all programs seems to be in start-middle stage , but maybe we don't know everything, i will support them just because of what they do

Toya - 24 Oct 2007 12:06 - 8 of 64

NB: I reckon that all the transactions at 1.10p this morning are Buys - I bought at that price, and the quote was 1-1.2 at the time (and has been all morning so far).

A lot more Buys again today - and this stock has been quite inactive I think for some time. I didn't have a lot of spare cash today but am pleased to have bought some at least. They're working with the right people on the research, so they'll be getting some worthwhile results that they can commercialise. Any good news is likely to be kept back until the AGM on 15 Nov I guess.

fernandesb - 24 Oct 2007 20:57 - 11 of 64

:) Toya, lets hope we are going to get some good news before 15 Nov and because AGM also, that's why i posted this thread as New Chance for Sareum, :):) i think it may be bright future for this one if things will go right
