Quotes from the Ask Traders article -

"As the year ends, Eqtec remains one of the standout companies with significant growth potential as governments embrace sustainable energy sources, which the company produces."

"Eqtec shares may not be for everyone but could be the perfect opportunity for those patient investors with long term investment horizons."

At the moment, I think its fair to say that EQT is a traders share with all the volatility that goes with that - the SP simply doesn't reflect positive sentiment or potential for the company.

What needs to change is that long term investors with sticky fingers need to dominate.

When enough of the share capital is held by long term holders we will start to see a meaningful rise in the SP - this will probably be when the numbers make a compelling case for investment.

In the meantime as Ask Traders say - "Eqtec shares may not be for everyone but could be the perfect opportunity for those patient investors with long term investment horizons." - So get in before the crowd before the inevitable rerate.

This weeks fall may have helped in the long run to retest the bottom of the 2021 trading range.

With good news the SP will spring up from this low base with its own Santa Rally and then rerate to higher levels in 2022.

Pelham's short is now below the radar on Short Tracker - it fell 0.11% to 0.45% on Wednesday.

Total stock out on loan at the start of November was 4% up from 3.03% at the end of October - Pelham started reducing on 23rd November.

Short Tracker now shows shorts for MKS at 0.00%.

Technically the market is just trying to establish the mean price for ITX.

Since September the volume has been very low, so the SP has been steadily falling and the flooding RNS deterred buyers.

So now with so many factors pushing the SP down, including macro, the SP will fall until buyers appear.

The fall encourages selling to improve stock availability and should in theory make it easy to buy, but with low availability this may be a difficult process and the SP could continue to fall to free up more stock but eventually it will sort itself out.

Long term holders can only look on with frustration but eventually things will improve.

More like a 5-10 year hold - if they remain independent - then the sky is the limit.

I think that the tech developed by Eqtec is more valuable than the company, so I guess we could see a takeover within three years - maybe Wood.
If that was the case maybe shareholders could expect at least 5-10p per share depending on how quick it happened.

I guess Pelham reducing down gave the SP a lift - now they seem to have finished the SP is adjusting.
Also Omicron isn't helping.

The SP is certainly being pushed back by Omicron and the fall out from Covid in general, as the whole market feels the volatility in different ways that actually make little sense. Add to that the way all small caps trade on AIM and all you get is misleading confusion by following the SP.

But what matters is how TRX is trading in the real world and all the evidence is that with hospitals getting back up to full speed, and beyond, after the lockdowns that they are very likely battling like everyone else connected with health care to keep up with the demand.

Investors who just judge a company by movements in its SP and sell out when the going gets tough, might just as well sell all their shares and invest in Premium Bonds.

Yes, if there is a will - with all its coastline Japan must be a good candidate for off shore wind - lets hope they follow that course, but from Ceres point of view they just need to use the hydrogen - blue or green.

I think one or two contributors to this board are in that lucky position of investing here when the SP was flatlining around the 250 - 300p mark - unfortunately I am not one of them, but rich rewards are still here for the taking.

Apollo and others, may have lost their chance - M&S is well on the road to recovery now - they should have looked back in 2020 or earlier this year - also any sniff of a bid and the SP would shoot up.

I notice that Ammu has bottled it after taking a tiny profit - I thought day traders weren't adverse to risk?

Big rewards if you think Enquest's SP can start following BP's SP again after it dipped back at the end of October - if production improves, it certainly will.

It looks to me that BP is no longer a strong buy, because its fully valued, but Enquest's SP could easily double up with good news - I will watch with interest but have other prospects at the moment.

The BBC reported from Japan yesterday that the Japanese are ready to embrace Blue Hydrogen from Australia - made from coal - as their alternative to coal fired power stations.

It certainly isn't a major advance in the fight against climate change but there is a silver lining to the news - Toyota are ready to actually produce hydrogen fuel cell powered cars and expand the use of hydrogen fuel cells throughout Japanese tech . They have no plans to produce battery electric cars.

As far as I know, Ceres have no contacts with Toyota but they do with Honda and Nissan, so maybe we could see Ceres tech in production cars one day.

Ceres also have their partnership with Miura in Japan for industrial boilers - this is an area that also interests Toyota.

I don't think that the two year view applies to growth shares like Ocado - these have to be a long term hold.

My late Dad brought Ashtead shares back in the late 1980's when they were about 30p - my Mum still has a substantial holding of the originals in her account today at 6464p.

This patient report from South Africa underlines that from their actual experiences, Omicron is a much less potent threat than other Covid variants.

Also we can expect a report from Porton Down early this week after their initial studies of Omicron.

Yes all that rings true Valueplay.

Basically its a build up of negative factors at a time when markets are weak with no one factor dominating, this has followed on from the purple period for Ocado during the worst of the pandemic.

Fortunes will change at some point - as Halma says we have all taken a hit with our portfolios, but now is certainly not the time to run scared ans sell.

JS is simply putting all effort into growing the company.
The shareholders will benefit from his endeavours sooner or later - we don't need a blow by blow account on a month to month basis.
Just be patient.

Absolute rubbish - its how JS runs the company that matters and there can be no question that his skill and innovation has put Itaconix where it is today.
