The latest Investing Matters Podcast episode with London Stock Exchange Group's Chris Mayo has just been released. Listen here.
It's not as simple as 'so what' is it? Nobody should be daft enough to assume that the road will always be smooth but there is scope to express disappointment quite reasonably when the potholes turn out to be unfinished bridges over a canyon
your point re ITM is ridiculous Aim. The sector certainly doesn't help but the issue has been the mismatch between expectations from the statement a year ago and now. We are now back as a quasi R&D company when we appeared to be in full sales and production mode
Well the Keltbray trial (order is stretching it...) is for the power tower which wasn't around a year ago. I'm in financial services so my knowledge of closing leads as engineering goes from R&D to commercial is negligible (and that's exaggerating matters!!)
I see the specified 8 week trial period as a really significant potential milestone. To the best of my knowledge no such timeline has been set by Acciona, Mace or Keltbray so assuming that we find out when the tower is delivered a key future date will have been set in stone.
