BRN Discussion Ongoing

[VictorG]

Yes Yak but in the end fundamentals will win out.

I did not know what would happen today but I did know it would be artificial and controlled by forces over which I had no control.

I remember my years as a prosecutor when corruption ran rife throughout the Police and Government in NSW and after loosing a case which I felt I had won Tony Bellanto (Snr) who appeared for the defendant, before he was appointed a judge, waited until Court adjourned and said to me “Don’t worry Sergeant there were forces in play here today over which neither you or I had control.”

That is unfortunately how the world can work so one needs to acknowledge that and have a plan and for an ordinary retail investor like myself it is to not participate in the games and never loose sight of the fundamentals.

AKIDA BALLISTA

I agree with all the above but we have one emerging factor that's in our favour. For the last few weeks I have noticed, as I hope most others on this forum have also noticed, that BRN is in the news more often and in a positive light. Most times the news articles are old news to the 1000 eyes but they are new news to others outside our orbit. It is becoming apparent BRN have been very busy marketing Akida at an almost supersonic pace.

Sure we would love an announcement or two but as we wait, BRN is increasingly on many more lips and becoming known more broadly for the unrivalled value proposition that is Akida 1000. We have crossed the point where statements like 'what's a neuromorphic chip anyway' are behind us as are the idiots who mutter them. The ever increasing news regarding the Ai revolution that will usher in the worlds first trillionaires is gathering pace and BRN/Akida is in the thick of it.

Good luck to all, keep the faith, the last laugh is ours.

AKIDA BALLISTA

I remember an old saying

I agree Yak52, it's just so blatent.
I think I will just give up trying to understand the BRN market. Im a LTH in 2 accounts, and guilty of trading in 1 other account. Im changing my sentiment to a LTH in 3 accounts, lol.
How do I do one of those "head butting a brick wall GIF's??

I recall

A 30% disparity in price of the same commodity is untenable. It WILL have to resolve itself.

In this instance let’s hope the overseas forces prevail.

But then, staying around $1, on no news, isn‘t a bad thing either.

Investing is a long game and the technology will prove itself in the end. We’ll probably only have to wait another 6 months and Akida will be more well known.

I’m encouraged by the number of people who now know of the word neuromorphic and what edge device and edge computing means. I did my bit to promote Akida in the AIoT (without naming it) by editing the Wiki page to better fit the unconnected approach that only Akida can currently achieve. The last paragraph is my edit.

Just 12 months ago, those terms were quite foreign to almost everyone.

This reminds me of a response given when this behaviour was apparent in the 1990s . It goes like this ——-When the American market goes to a party , the Australian market goes to a funeral . FF is absolutely correct Slymeat .No announcements made and no change from the last few days .Monday through Wednesday exhibition may produce some new developments that visitors to the BRN table could be first to be introduced to and stir up renewed interest .

 

[HopalongPetrovski]

Today is looking positive for Brainchip but take a moment to reflect on the fact that NOTHING HAS CHANGED from a day ago, a week ago, a month ago.

I do not know one new important FACT as a result of everything that I or you have posted here that I did not know before Putin invaded Ukraine and the Federal Reserve in the US said they were going to raise interest rates.

The price of Brainchip shares last week and next week will not change the fundamentals of your investment.

If we have a good day or days then Putin assassinates the Ukrainian President or uses chemical weapons or commences a sea based invasion of Odessa it could all go the other way.

Remember the fundamentals remain the same. Solid as a rock.

Have your plan and do not let external events that have no bearing on the fundamentals interfere.

AKIDA BALLISTA

Yes, it is after all, just the other side of the same coin.
We are subject at this point in our companies history to wild gyrations in our share price.
It is a known fact that we have wide ranging and possibly exponential potential, and that there are known and unknown risks, but our upside can really only be guessed at, in part due to the imposed secrecy of certain details of our operation.
These factors make us nigh on impossible to value with traditional metrics pushing us off the radar's of much of the established financial cognisentia, leaving valuations based on hunches and associative comparisons rather than empirical data.
When we shoot up on rumours or sink back on lack of news we are each, to some degree, subject to the rollercoaster of emotion elicited by our personal portfolio's worth and the concurrent impact it will have on our lives.
Even worse when perceived inequalities inherent in the system are evidenced.
It is a cool customer indeed who can watch her net worth more than double or halve without concern.
At these times, in particular, a strategic plan thought through in the cold light of day, taking into account one's own unique current perspective, long term objectives and requirements along with ones responsibilities, is worth its weight in gold.
Some Sage advise I have either learnt or had reinforced from these threads includes.....
Do your own research.
Have your own plan to cover contingencies.
Do not overstretch yourself financially leaving oneself vulnerable and unable to ride through periods when the market moves against you.
Timing the market can be difficult and risky.
Time in the market, invested on well picked prospects can be immensely rewarding.
Have a well considered and advised tax strategy to both comply and benefit from the current system in place.
Thank you to You Fact Finder and many others of the 1000 eyes for freely and enthusiastically sharing your accumulated wisdom and knowledge.
And Thank you in particular to Zeebot for creating and providing this much improved and protected environment for us all.
So nice to hear the new voices without the need to dredge thru the dross of the trolls and would be manipulators trying to poison the spring.

AKIDA EVERYWHERE.

 

[GazDix]

Just to expand on Fact Finder's projections for the future, I still think they are very conservative and with good reason. I also always think it is better to temper expectations.

But to further the bull argument, I thought back when I used to teach Business Studies about some of the theories and how they could be applied to Brainchip. One of which is called the Boston Matrix which shows a company's product portfolio.

Having a quick look back what is in the process from a product point of view, we have Akida500, 1500 and 2000 in the pipeline (under the term Akida 2.0) which is planned for release later this year - from Rob Telson's presentation (2/8/2021). This architecture will have different sizes and processes.

So I incorporated a possible snapshot of our product portfolio in the Boston Matrix for the year 2025 or so. Our flagship product and star will of course be Akida1000, but in a few years I think it could be possible that Akida500 will be our cash cow (seeing it is smaller and can maybe be inputted in manufacturing processes) and 1500 and 2000 could be our 'question marks' seeing they enhance the technology of Akida1000 and be quite different but not proven yet in the growing market of Edge AI.

With these products positioned where they are, and Cathie Woods prediction of the size of the AI market. I really think we will take much more than 10% of this market as long as development keeps happening and there are no fundamental obstacles along the way.

Cheers all, hope all is well. Been very quiet recently with no announcements and for me this is usually the exciting time seeing I know something is in the works.

It's a great arbitrage opportunity for the EU and US - open an account here and buy cheap shares. That in turn should equalise the prices between the markets.

Watched a new movie on Netflix last night, the Adam project, with actor Adam Reynolds. Its a time travelling action movie. But the interesting part for me was when it came to the crunch and he's saving the world, he had to destroy a Neuromorphic hard drive to do this. Hollywood is now using the term in its movies.

If it was a neuromorphic hard drive, it definitely was an Intel Lohi.

 

[mkm109]

I think what is happening is that the manipulation has shifted from shorting to arbitrage between the Au and other markets.
They can easily manipulate local AU prices and because of the demand overseas, which is supported by the price rise they can make an easy 10% on arbitrage.
Use 5% to drop the SP and then buy back and sell overseas. In fact they probably sell to themselves in different accounts, so it costs them next to nothing.

 

[BaconLover]

All I have to say is;

When the going gets tough, the tough gets going.

Applies regardless of whether you are trading or investing.

 

[skaggle]

Maybe a neuromphic hard drive is next on PVDM to do list after the Cortical columns.

 

[Fact Finder]

Those of us who attended early presentations by Peter van der Made know that the only thing bigger than his neuromorphic to do list is the addressable market for Brainchip to conquer. LOL FF

Hmm, I think hard drives would be redundant by the time BRN unleashes Akida 5000 aka The Kraken with the BRN Cortical backbone.

The Adam Project is already on my to watch list. Now I have even more reason to watch it.

It is so nice seeing the term bantered around. Hopefully, one day, Akida will be as well known as Google. Although I still prefer the original, and still slightly obscure, googol.

@skaggle you made me look up Cortical Columns as they pertain to the brain. I learnt something new today. Thanks.

And someone famously said “what’s a neuromorphic chip anyway?” LOL.

Thanks for sharing that @Rocket577.

It’s a long read @756 pages. I can’t promise to read it all.

I skimmed to the stuff relevant to companies I invest in. I do like that the report recommends considering long term investment in both quantum and neuromorphic computing. In that I 100% agree.

From Recommendations - the highlighting is mine.
“Over the longer term, the United States must also continue its portfolio approach to future microelectronics pathways by investing in new materials and entirely new hardware approaches, such as quantum and neuromorphic computing.”

But I feel this report is still living a little in the past in that it is talking about computing power to “mimic” the brain. This is so relatable to data centre and in-the-cloud type stuff. I.e. the stuff that will soon lose so much significance.

IMHO neuromorphic computing, although modelled on the way a brain works, does not need the limitation of ALL processing power residing in the one location, and of that central location co-ordinating a system of remote sensors and response mechanisms. AKA the body.

Neuromorphic Computing can be/needs to be MUCH more than that, and the way it is implemented in Akida means the concept of a centralised brain/computer is removed. With Akida, individual intelligence is moved to the edge, to the sensor and actuator that needs to respond to the stimmuli. Maybe edge computing is more akin to a smarter proprioceptive system, one that can learn and make its own decisions. That is the future, and that is what BrainChip brings to the table TODAY!

A big take-home message from this report is the lead-in paragraph:
“Americans have not yet grappled with just how profoundly the artificial intelligence (AI) revolution will impact our economy, national security, and welfare. Much remains to be learned about the power and limits of AI technologies.”

I assume this applies to us lesser humans too.

Thanks Rocket,

Most of what I’ve read so far goes like this:

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

followed by some of this:

and a bit of $$$$$$$$$$.

Spot on. No one is questioning if the technology actually works anymore even if they still don't understand it. What they are now struggling to understand is how much it is worth which is probably why sophisticated investors are waiting for BRN to sign a mass market contract so they can get their head around it. I know I am.

Confusion still reigns. Its just shifted.
