Hi The Pope
I have a huge amount of stored, I think repressed is the correct term, anger over the way the company communicates.
So much of the Brainchip knowledge requires a college degree and a team of researchers to uncover from the public domain and I am not a fan of the use of diverse social media platforms to communicate with shareholders.
In my life I have seen how most day to day problems arise through lack of information because most people do not know how to find it or even know to look in the first place.
The way Brainchip chooses to communicate compounds the issue. For instance if they are doing podcasts they should provide transcripts. I have raised this a thousand times.
My anger however is not negativity because while I disagree with their approach and believe it is wrong I understand it and it does not make me anxious or fearful but it does mean I spend far more time than I do on my other investments which take what I consider to be the correct approach to ASX announcements.
Another holder who is in the USA and I were chatting and he does not relate at all to my anger over ASX announcements because for him it is what he is used to in the States.
We are an ASX listed company run by Americans and what was clear at the Meet & Greet was our US CEO just does not get the importance we Aussies place on the ASX and was there trying to understand.
I suppose it’s like an Aussie trying to understand why an American needs so much food put on their plate while lamenting the obesity problem and what to do about it.
It is a cultural gap that my repressed anger needs to accept.
Anyway all good we are on the same page now.
My opinion only DYOR

Hi Chips
I love stories so here is one for you.
When I employed Secretary typists it was sufficient to circle the mistake and give it back to them. They understood the circle indicated a mistake. They then corrected it and the work came back to me and I signed and off it went.
I never once spent all day for a week berating the person over a typo. I never sacked anyone for a typo even if it was missed by someone.
I absolutely never after ranting for a week over a typo came back to it in subsequent weeks time and time again making jokes at the persons expense.
I never found the typo so important that I stopped the analyse of a matter of significance to promote the typo’s significance to all making it the only thing I spoke about in the office day after day with every client who came through the door.
So what I would suggest is that those that do are either in need of help or have another agenda.
I would suggest that the appropriate action for even a pedant to take is to circle the typo and send it to Tony Dawe with a please correct.
Then post if they are so inclined that they have detected the typo and notified the company.
You obviously do not agree and consider it should dominate the conversation for weeks on end
If you were an employer I think you would find yourself on the front end of a constructive dismissal case if you behaved like this with your employees.
The End.
My opinion no further research or comment required.

Maybe FF should raise BRN's grammatical blunders with the frequency he hassles BRN about transcripts for their podcasts. Maybe that's why people highlight these critical issues on this stock forum. Maybe they will listen if they hear it 1001 times...Hello Fact Finder
I don't like stories, but rather reality!
1. Nobody discussed "all day for a week" beating anybody! You were the one writing most words about it.
2. Secretaries should not make typing mistakes especially nowadays with automatic correction programs and when going public. It always gives bad impressions. In this case, nobody did a second check!
3. It surprises me over and over again how much and often you defend BrainChip even over minor topics.
My end too.
Have a good weekend!
