ha! I told you the first time and you changed the subject. No one was holding up anything, waiting to see if joe would win, though his win combined with a republican senate has certainly energised stock markets worldwide. Covid, and the recession, and covid, and the reality that orders always take longer to close than expectation, and covid , and the recession and....that's what has slowed things down if they have been slowed down at all. period. Biden's win makes the world a better place for a while anyway and that's certainly something to celebrate. And of course in 2 years, when he can finally get around to an infrastructure bill, green names will be bought and IES might well benefit, but by that time we'll be $1B company and what will have gotten us there will have nothing to do with Joe and everything to do with deals like this morning's validating and then accelerating the uptake of vanadium flow as a permanent part of the world's energy storage solution suite.

Mate, I'm a professional

and, right on schedule, comes a bookend inanity from the brother from another mother, lest he be outdone in the senile uncle stakes

did you go away and get dumber and then were so excited, you had to come back today in order to show us? when have I ever - in any forum real or imagined - expressed so much as a nostril hair of pro-trump sentiment?? But even more importantly, what possible difference does it make to anything anyway? what a numpty. Blah, if you want to look for relevance for Invinity's share price performance related to politics, focus on the state level if you must.

????

bc its irrelevant.

no relevance

Well, it did manage to close pretty well at least. Huge volume consistent with a forced seller. Will be interesting to see if there are any position change declarations over the next few days/week. Somebody bought a ton today.

covid malarky?

As said, there's no real fundamental reason to sell tomorrow. In addition to probable gold price strength, sterling is already falling and that in principle helps Kefi's valuation as well (the company will eventually earn and report in $ but pay overheads in sterling and local currencies). So, any weakness in the share price tomorrow/next week will be kind of second order in nature; ie., the result of weakness in equities generally (the FTSE is currently forecast to fall around 1.3% or 70-odd points), and then some forced selling that often results among small cap companies as some small shareholders get margin calls. However, a lot of that type selling has already occurred and should of course be seen as a buying opportunity.

FWIW, there is an active weekend market in the FTSE and it is currently forecasting the market to drop around 75 points, or 1.3% to 5500, while other major indicies are set to drop less with the DAX -30 at 11525 and the DOW -150 at 23400, while Hong Kong is forecast to be almost unchanged. These are likely to deteriorate some when Asian markets open just because there is so little good news out there right now and the coming US election is likely to keep people nervous. However, what might temper the falls in the UK are 1. the market has been crushed already and a volte face on lockdown was certainly rumoured late last week if not fully 'in the market'; and 2. sterling is also trading now and is being hit hard on the back of the lockdown announcement as well, and generally equity traders like markets with weak currencies.

damn, hoped you wouldn't notice. you're right. my bad. apologies

ok, everyone stop talking. The CEO purchases were market transactions, were completely separate to the options exercise announcement, no hole formed, simply awkwardly announced (the boys referenced that in early remarks. it should have been announced at 7am and not in the middle of the day). end of

ok., you're wrong. nothing of the kind is going on and 'hole forming' is not a thing.

share price was unch yesterday

There's no screaming and there will be no placing. I've explained a number of times: this company need never issue equity again (unless of course they wish to in order to bring on a strategic partner for instance). This type of distribution-heavy retail business - once you have 'significant' orders - runs on letters of credit, which are among the highest forms of collateral available. Work it out

I'll see your bullish general sector piece where IES isn't mentioned, Pinecone, and raise you another article where IES isn't mentioned, but is yugely bullish on V specifically as the 'Valyrian Steel of the Energy Transition' : https://www.iisd.org/articles/vanadium-valyrian-steel-energy-transition

Simple. Because I wasn't referring to US energy policy and how it might evolve under Biden, which even without the recent press backing up the prospects, was always going to be self-evidently a positive development from the current awful administration and which I am certainly among many who feel it can and will mean an even more exciting environment for alt energy in many forms. What I was deeming irrelevant was the idea that the coming election has had any impact on 'delay' decisions by IES management on 'alleged' deals, or whatever your point was. Firstly I reject the premise that any announcements can or would be intentionally 'delayed' in the first place, but even if they could/would be, it wouldn't have anything to do with the election cycle. Ergo, irrelevant.

A friendly interview to be sure, but Joe Biden does not do too many podcasts where he has a chance to answer detailed policy questions in long-form. Not a surprise perhaps, but a little before halfway, he confirms that storage is absolutely front-of-mind for the - please God - soon-to-be future president of the US and the '$800B federal contract fund' his White House will control.
