Quite right Daz. It's all an illusion. AFC's set up doesn't shout, "innovative geniuses". What do they even do. They certainly didn't research AlkaMem, that was Professor Varcoe and his team. It's all smoke and mirrors fronted by Bond.
There won't be a Middle East war. It's all talk and bluster. The Iranians don't want big bangs coming to their homestead especially if it were to be their prized nuclear facilities. They know Israelis will do it if they attack Israel.
I've just bought back in recently having sold everything a while back due to an overwhelming feeling of exasperation. I was impressed with the CFO's hefty purchase followed by the Chair sometime later so I thought, " they must be confident." I would like to see Margherita buy more, however, just to hammer home the point I suspect Luka Mucic is trying to make i.e. VOD has a bright future. I'm hoping for better luck here second time round! Mind you so far it's been more of the same! I guess the potential postponement of interest rate cuts isn't helping!
It doesn't look like they can pommy as they are perennially getting it wrong with their predictions of great times ahead. How much disappointment can people take. Think AlkaMem and liquid cooled S+ units. All we have is low power density power towers to show for the millions of pounds spent on research over nearly 2 decades! The only winners here are Adam Bond and the BOD all of whom have earned handsomely from this horror show. Look at the SP! Who in their right mind could be happy with that?
I've got to say again about the 30kW unit, having looked at the picture with Adam and his chums standing beside it, it's huge! It looks to be X3 power towers together in one cabinet. I can't see it catching on in a big way due to its size as I'm sure space can be an issue in certain construction sites. Again, for me the future has to be with more power dense units but as we've seen with the 200kW unit, that's proving to be a harder nut to crack. And after 19 years of "research and development" if that's the best they can do, it's pretty poor.
So your idea is that admin should only allow posters who post positively about AFC kite, despite it's very poor record stretching back 19 years. Is that just to be ignored in your fantasy world? Maybe they should look at the cabal of rampers on here. I don't know another bulletin board where so many posters see no issues with a non delivering CEO and company. It's quite astonishing, really.
That's commendable Jim and sorry for your loss but maybe you should tone down your insulting language on here towards other posters. It's only natural that you'll get people's backs up with the type of vitriolic posts you specialise in.
You're such a great guy Jim! It's a pity you present on here as a foul mouthed bully towards anyone who holds a legitimately critical view on this under performing company. The evidence is there, over many years, to make that a credible position to take but not in your biggotted world. You know nothing about me so don't let your warped mind let you imagine me as some sort of hopeless loner. You're quite obviously a fantasist so no-one other than your sycophantic chums on here, could take you seriously. I note you've resisted my challenge to predict when the SP will rise. That's confidence for you. 🤡
I could only justify commenting on this board as a shareholder Ogggs. If I'm not in then I have no right to criticise. Yes I bought a few more as it looked like progress was being made but Bond and Dixon Clarke spoiled that with their hopeless presentation. I stay invested in case a miracle happens and they actually deliver a profitable business but also to raise concerns about the unscrupulous way investors have been misled for years by this company. It really is scandalous.
So you're not concerned about a 14 year delay, Jim. lol You're either a liar or an idiot, probably both. It's the disingenuousness of fools like you with their inability to confront reality that is just so shocking. No company should take 19 years to produce a viable product but in your fantasy world Jim, that's perfectly acceptable. I dare you to make another prediction as to when you see the SP improving. Come on, I need a good laugh 😂
I've often thought it a cruel twist of fate that the Middle East has so much of the world's oil reserves. It's one reason why technological advances towards power production from hydrogen and nuclear fusion are so important. I look forward to the day that we no longer need to rely on said region for energy.
Wow just wow! The odious one returns from his self imposed exile (I thought he had me on ignore). I'm a realist Jim not an obsequious dreamer like you. Remember your absurd prediction about shareprice growth last autumn. You have zero credibility. Grow a pair and call out this outfit for misleading investors for years and failing to deliver on its grand announcements. And yes I'm a shareholder but one that doesn't tolerate deceit.
The fact that it wasn't completed and CE marked as promised in 2023 Pommygit and recent remarks by Bond about problems with the software delaying completion for another year, is proof enough for me that they can't deliver on it. It all sounds very AlkaMemesque.
Let's be honest here. The big prize was the 200kW units for ABB but unfortunately, as I always suspected, perfecting the liquid cooled high power unit would prove to be beyond AFC's capabilities just as AlkaMem was. Without David Harvey they would literally still have no commercially viable product and he only arrived 3 years ago. One wonders what they were doing prior to this. The company's been going since 2006 and achieved very little in that time. Bond must be one of the biggest bluffers on Aim to have been able to keep the gravy train chugging along for so long, in his case from 2014.

Looking like the hoped for Saudi business could be in jeopardy!

This downer on PRU because of doing its business in China etc. is way over done. Hoping for a bounce back sooner rather than later. 🤞
