For those that may be feeling a little bit miffed about the last few weeks on the stock market may I suggest you book a session (if you are in WA) to the Van Gough Alive happening at the Supreme Court Gardens. He was a troubled man but look what he's left us to enjoy.‘If you can meet with triumph and disaster
and treat those two imposters just the same’
’If you can make one heap of all your winnings
and risk it on one turn of pitch ‘n toss…and lose
and start again at your beginnings’
’If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you’
A few short lines from Rudyard Kipling’s inspirational poem If-
I would encourage those of us here who may be feeling down-in-the-dumps after the past week, to read this poem. Whenever life has delivered me a blow, I have taken comfort from doing just this.
If you ever visit that ‘green and pleasant land’ I recommend a visit to Burwash in the High Weald of East Sussex. Just down the road from The Rose and Crown, a wonderful 15th century pub, you’ll find Bateman’s, Rudyard’s home for his last 30 odd years. There is something ethereal about wandering in the footsteps, and along the pathways of people like Rudyard Kipling.
I have recently been pondering where things are going, given the days of wine and easy, abundant, cheap money are ending. This at a time when the rising cost of living, in fact the rising cost of everything is insane. Inflation is rife, wages are stagnant, uncertainty, anxiety, dare I say fear abounds…and not just here but everywhere.
For mine, the actions required to combat these headwinds will cause the world to enter a recessionary period. As Paul Keating once said…’this is the recession we had to have’…to get things back on a sustainable footing.
What does all this mean for our battler?
Certainly the past week or so has been painful for most of us, and as much as I respect the 1000 eyes and all the research they do to provide us with hope and encouragement, for mine we need a little more. I refer to what our CEO said in an interview shortly after the AGM...’at this year’s AGM I talked about activity, at next year’s I will talk about results’
For what it’s worth I am a true believer…I believe during the next six months we’ll begin to see these results…results which will make all the blood, sweat and tears shed by Peter, Anil and those unknown at least to me…so worthwhile.
’If you can dream, and not make dreams your master’

Ah the good old days.My parents were so frugal they made the Depression last for 50 years.
You can’t beat mouldy crumpets as I had some the other day and I was to hungry to take the green mould offAh the good old days.
Nothing like three day stewed leaf tea to make you appreciate a fresh pot.
And the it’s only mouldy on the outside cheese.
Not to mention what’s that in the kettle nothing just wrigglers once it’s boiled you won’t notice.
Why are you sitting in the dark? The sun hasn’t gone down.
And my favourite it’s fine just cut the mould off and pop it in the toaster.

Well red and green will get you into the black.Fed up with your stock you own constantly being red. Then maybe you should invest in a pair of these and I’ll guaranteed you’ll have green days everyday.

IN SUMMARY:Afternoon Chippers,
Reading the weekend paper & came upon this article.
No mention of Brainchip , that I'm aware of, but interesting the various views & opinions .
Article title: Bursting of the technology bubble leaves fund managers divided.
Author: Emma Rapaport.
*Snippets from above article ....
Bears say sanity has prevailed; bulls say ' buy the dip'.
And this bit which caught my eye...
Catherine Wood, the Queen of tech bulls who runs the ARK Innovation Fund, has also doubled down on tech despite a collapse in the value of her portfolios holdings this year.
On Thursday, Wood told attendees at Morgan Stanley's Sydney conference that "we are at the threshold of the most explosive Innovation age in the history of the world". And that the mojo would eventually return to the tech stocks such as Zoom, Tesla and Roku, which are amoung her funds largest holdings.
As stated before , no mention of BRN , but a quick deduction from above would indicate that Cathie now knows the geographical location of Australia, and as such her analysts should be able to locate Brainchip.
Regards,
Esq.

I had no choice but to select a team out of love. Since Brainchip currently has no sponsor with any team (yet) I had to think elsewhere. I thought of your profile picture here. The rest is history.
