AB would have no problem getting into the states if his attendance was requested by the organizers or other important entity and even if covid was the reason why would he not clarify that. Some folks on here refuse to accept that AB's behaviour is damaging this company's credibility. Silence is not always golden.

Snag is it's always perhaps with AFC. Everything's a secret.

Let's hope and even pray that's the reason.

It is a credible theory. I hope it's wrong but AB's refusal to allow a proper update is leaving everyone guessing. If the deal has fallen through AB must go. I know few agree with me on here but AB's track record and propensity to promise the earth but deliver very little is to blame for our current SP woes.

Maybe he wants to be present at the public launch of ABB's new rapid EV charger powered by AFC's fuel cells. Now that would be a good reason to cancel.

With the exception of Powercell they all have MCs in the Billions. I'd settle for that!

If you're not a tad worried by a 36% drop in the last 6 months with 26% of it coming in the last month alone aided by a months long news blackout then you're either deluded or not invested.

Looks like a coordinated strategy to deflect from the news blackout and the SP crash. Maybe AB will buy tomorrow. That would help.

I have emailed before but received no reply. I may just try again though. Persistence might just pay off!

"The operational validation and integration of ABB and AFC's systems (incorporating fuel cells, a battery energy storage system and EV charger) will take place over the next few weeks and is expected to confirm the electrical and control systems required for the autonomous high power EV charger."
Why can AFC not let the market know if the validation process was successful? The excerpt above is from the RNS announced on 16th August! There's no excuse for nearly 2 months of silence on this. Disgraceful!

Down over 3% on Tradegate. The Germans running out of patience with AFC and who can blame them. This share would try the patience of a saint. Let's hope for a better day and of course some news on our progress. Surely not too much to ask Adam?

Slight bounce on Tradegate. Closed at 46p. Lol

What worries me is the delivery of the Acciona and Julich projects. Why can AFC not reassure the market that these are still on track? Remember what happened to the British Motor Show commitment. I don't like the prolonged silence and evidently neither does the market. It can give rise to serious doubts creeping in particularly around the veracity of AB's bullish comments in the half yearly report. He raised expectations to the rafters so must now deliver PDQ or any remaining credibility he has left will evaporate. His antics are not serving shareholders well as can be evidenced by the bombing SP.

Just what I was thinking. When AB implied lots of news in H2 in the half yearly report he should have said, end of Q4! He really knows how to dash expectations. I guess the positive is Gary Ballard's missus must know her investment is sound. Imagine if AB actually put his hand in his pocket, the SP would rocket but as he gets his given to him he doesn't need to. Alright for some.

Not so sure. Growth stocks are out of favour due to rising bond yields. AFC need to show their path to profitability to properly break away from this annoying tendency to get hammered when bond yields rise.

With COP 26 almost upon us I think most on here expected the SP to rally including me. Even without news. I guess there's still time but I agree the market is most confusing at times. A nice RNS might help reverse the trend though. We live in hope!

So we're all going down the pan together. Thanks for pointing that out Haggis!

We're being dragged down by the US market. NASDAQ down 2.5% with Plug, Ballard and Fuelcell all down 6% plus. If ever there was a time to drop a bombshell RNS announcing the long talked about commercial deal it must be now. Time for AFC to finally step out of the shadows and show the world what it's got.

Looks like it. Hopefully not long now!

Certainly sounds like ABB are as enthusiastic as ever about AFC. I wonder do these very welcome comments imply an announcement on a commercial future together is imminent?
