BRN Discussion Ongoing

[Bravo]

It's quite amasing to think that we're going to be involved in these upcoming events. History in the making.

NASA planning to spend up to $1 billion on space station deorbit module

NASA is projecting spending nearly $1 billion on a tug to deorbit the International Space Station at the end of the decade.

4,371,903 new Shorts on the ASX for Monday 13th March.

Wonder how many taken today and dropped in the Market? See tomorrow I guess.

As can be seen by the following data from the ASX it would seem that the SHORT Positions have not been reduced lately even with a significant drop in the Share price.

The shorters at this rate will be the major share holder shortly at this rate.

And you know who else uses Arm architecture? Apple does to power every Apple computing product, unless the article below is incorrect.

And thanks to Renesas we know Akida can now seamlessly integrate with the Arm Cortex-M85 processor available as part of Armv8.1M architecture. So why wouldn't Apple want to get in on this action?

Anyway someone from Apple is probably going to be very interested in Renesas who is to present the first live demonstrations of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) implementations (in other words AKIDA inside) on an MCU based on the Arm Cortex-M85 processor at the embedded world 2023 Exhibition and Conference in Nuremburg, Germany from March 14-16.

This is a snippet from the announcement.

Arm's new chip architecture will power future devices, possibly including Apple's | AppleInsider

Chip designer Arm Ltd. has announced its new v9 architecture, a design that could eventually appear in the Apple Silicon powering future iPhones, iPads, and Macs.

Off all companies I think will ever use Brn technology, I think apple would be the bottom of my list

Tesla car battery 'spontaneously' catches fire on California freeway, requiring 6,000 gallons of water to put it out

No injuries were reported. Tesla CEO Elon Musk has previously stated only 0.01% of Teslas have ever caught fire.

These vehicle should be taken off the road and deemed defective and unsafe.

Incorrect! Shorters do not own the underlying assets. They are borrowed shares and hence must be returned at some point.

 

[skutza]

Yes Lithium batteries are not safe Still a good one on asx is ATC making salt based batteries I have a small amount invested in these guys because like Brainchip they are the future too! Vlad

Well although we shouldn't cross promote, every now and then is ok right? PPk are doing sulphur batteries. LIS energy is at Deakin near my house. I'm heavily invested there, they are currently worth less than their book value. Certainly worth a look, down from $21!!!!

I know, just stating at this rate they will owe a total of maybe over 150 millions shares which they are only borrowing and owing 150 million share would probably make ‘‘em the top holders

 

[Deleted member 118]

Who owns the 150 mill?

Not sure but someone posted the top holders and I remember seeing that close to that number

Plumerai partnered with Renesas Electronics and enables Plumerai People Detection with 13 fps on a microcontroller! This greatly outperforms any other MCU solution.

We achieved this result by combining the new Renesas Helium-enabled Arm Cortex-M85 with Plumerai People Detection AI. And instead of relying on Arm CMSIS-NN we optimized the Plumerai Inference Engine for Helium and gained an additional 2.7x speedup.

Looks like the shorters are coming after WBT

View attachment 32113

Probably why they gone quite on the other side and if I was a holder of WBT knowing what I know now about how they have brought down BRN, I’d be selling out

 

[Fact Finder]

What is the real evil of short selling. It is the multiplier effect.

In the present case you do not need to own 150 million shares to create 150 million short positions.

To explain:

1. I have 50 million shares and I lend them to you for 6 months.

2. You open your short position by selling 50 million to Institution A off market.

3. Institution A then lends the 50 million to Blind Freddie for 6 months.

4. Blind Freddie opens his 50 million short position off market by selling to Institution B. We now have 100 million short positions open.

5. Institution B then lends 50 million to Jack who opens his short position by selling off market to Institution C. We now have 150 million short positions open.

In theory there can be more short positions open at any one time than there are shares on issue. Now that would create one hell of a short squeeze.

In any event how can fake positions create an equal market for all participants.

Got out last week. Seriously thinking about a BRN top up with the proceeds.

 

[Easytiger]

I agree, we do not want others having the ability to in effect sub licence. We lose control of Brand security. We do not want to risk Brand damage.
Having said that maybe it was the only way Mega chips would sign up???

Just saying we need to negotiate based on the amazing value of what we bring. That is a special deal with a friendly company, who actually wants to be transparent and they will promote the value of Brainchip in their company’s product while we promote the capabilities of the company with our technology. Can’t be that hard.

Our SXSW talk is right around the corner!


On 15 March at 11.30 am CST, I’ll be taking part in a featured session on “Autonomous Driving: More Time to Do What You Love”, joined by RJ — from ZYNC and Austin Russell from Luminar Technologies.

We represent three very different companies of very different scale and at three very different stages of development. Yet we all bring exciting innovations to the table that promise to transform the in-car experience. This is a classic example of the whole being greater than the sum of its parts.

Convergence of this kind is also what SXSW is all about, and I’m really looking forward to my first visit. If you’re attending, come along to the session and hear what we have to say.

If you can’t be there, don’t worry, I’ll report back on the experience right here!

I love this comment.
Not because it's true, but because it demonstrates exactly why the likes of Shareman, Mdiddy, Dawgfather etc bother going on the crapper.
Think for yourself for even two seconds.

I'm not going to bother explaining why Brainchip is doing just fine right now, as I wouldn't want to influence you any further.
Imagine being Dio, FF, Uiux et all posting genuinely useful content in a sea of complete mindless rubbish.
I'm genuinely embarrassed to be part of this discussion, why is everyone expecting 10x returns within the first few years of commercialisation?
This is the ASX not crypto, if you expected a lambo after a few months holding you're doing it wrong.

I think everyone must understand that Lithium Ion Batteries Have a an inherent quality that, conditions providing, will have a situation called Thermal Run-Away (Internal Shorting). This is a problem with most EVs. Not just Teslas. EV scooters, bikes, cars, buses. Fire Safety Services are now recommending that people do NOT charge devices in house due to fire risk. Read the News, regular reports of EV Battery fires. Any EV, until we find a reliable and efficient alterative to Lithium Ion Batteries at Economic Scale. Tech is coming, Batteries are improving and watch this space
