Great link thanks.
Not heard of this technology but large recent UK spot electricity price spikes caused by a lack of wind, implies an urgent need for grid scale storage going forward.

I like it too..!

I hadn't clocked it had hit 2540 till today so for me, it cud easily hit 3000 and i wouldn't know it!
Looking at the growth rate over the last few years and also future expectaions, maybe i should be in a buying rather than a selling mood.
I find the psychological aspect fascinating and an important part of understanding share trading generally..

Yes seems like a spike in the sell volume (around 544K) around 11pm this morning set the scene but can't see any specific event(s). Had a very brief search but can't see any results from related companies. Maybe some regulatory news in America or some other insider info leaking like has been mentioned....

If the pension deficit improvement doesn't come from increased contributions then maybe they're hoping for a better performance of the underlying assets. I know nothing about pensions but note a growing tendency for schemes to outsource pension managment to specialist companies that offer improved performance.

Ha ha yes, greed and fear JD37, greed and fear! ;)
SP now above the consensus analysts average target of 2215 which you don't see v often. Maybe a takeover target? I'm tempted to sell a few (fear) but my gut is saying be greedy...!

Cpx has gone from 1.8 p to 13p and back to 6p in last 18 months which makes it an extremely speculative small cap proposition which could go bust or could go times 10. If you want certainties then this aint the place for you...

Yes that's prob a good call. Noticed a sudden drop from 450/470 to 420/450 this arvo with no trades shown at that time so maybe a big delayed sell yet to be announced? Can buy now at 434p.... Maybe a large investor got wind of a fund raise or summat...

Yes all Cap xx seem to say is that it's persuing Ioxus for awarded damages (approx $5M i believe) but not sure they'll get it.

The parent company now appears to be Systematic Power Solutions, LLC

I find it hard to beleive that you can just sell the company to avoid court damages but that would appear to be the case to date. Maybe someone with a company law background can shed some light?

Did find another case against Systematic tho.

Yes it's pleasantly free of the usuall guff on here too considering the sp performance. I only joined the show recently at £13 and am surprised at how fast this has increased. Dunno about a target price yet, i tend to try and let the winners run even when i start to get uneasy...!

The effeciency of a coal power station is similarly poor. By law of thermodynamics of the heat cycle involved , 66% of the heat (energy) goes up the chimney. So it's not necessrily a show stopper in the production of green hydrogen especially when the energy consumed (and wasted) is zero carbon to start with.

Yes SAG are bottom fishers and i'm afraid TPG fits the bill quite nicely (previous to fresh management). They bought out Frontier Smart a few years back for a pittance and of course now, it's fast becoming the jewel in their crown. They wouldn't be interested here if they couldn't sense an opportunity, so lets hope TPG management can get a grip and start a turn around here asap.

Make that £5M in shares

5m shares bought at 1360p last fri.
I'd say stick with it , high teens possible this year...

Yes at around 1% of issued shares there might well be an sold RNS issued which would shed some light, but the fact the price didn't drop is generaly more positive than it might have been.

Yes like you predicted :-
Peel Hunt has STB as a 'Buy' and target is 1592p
Several others have Buy recommends and average target is 1740p.
Don't normally pay too much attention too analysts but maybe i should since there is definately a statistically useful correlation between their average targets and the SP behavour on many shares (as you would hope/expect given it's their day jobs! ). Already ahead on my last buy and still a strong hold imho

' ...why has the share price been hammered lately?'
Amazes me that people buy in without doing proper research as to what they're buying and have unrealistic expectations esp relating to the timescales involved. Who was it that said that the stock market is '...a mechanism of transfering wealth from the impatient to the patient? '

Yes Lutra agree with that. As discussed here at the time, selling Maritime seemed like an odd strategy and the SP decline reflected investors concerns. Now that that's ruled out and with new CEO we should see more recovery in the SP, very positive IMHO.

Yes great interims again and would expect upgrades to yr end 22 and 23 expected earnings if they can maintain this rate of growth. Solid hold and will look to acquire more on any sp weakness goimg forward.
I suppose i should congratulate them on the turn around at Frontier Smart too (Spoken sincerely like an ex-FS share holder ;)

Interesting thanks...if they need one module per public electric car charging station then that could quickly add up! Not immediatly obvious that that's the case.
Very positive as you say tho.

Probably people will start going on about the cost of setting up another production line to cope with the extra volumes needed...
Thirty 3000F caps per module and no doubt someone will have a figure for the approx profit per cap? Just need an estimate for the number of modules that might sell...?
