Ben Richardson, CEO at SulNOx, confident they can cost-effectively decarbonise commercial shipping. Watch the video here.
Goldman are flipping their holding in and out (not selling) and my thought is that it's to push up or down the price as they require. So, recently they flipped out of a direct holding, pushing down the price after that rise to 2.30 at a time when we'd had news. Now we're heading for the results and more news and dividend, so they are positioned out and can buy it in and help the rise with a bit of squeeze. If I'm right, I expect them to help it to go up into May and the results. That way it should touch 2.60, before they drive it back to 2.30 in August, but the level is then settling at 2.30 - 2.60. Like I say, it's only a theory... but there's not much of this stock around, so it may overshoot.
Biffa are lined up for lower debt-costs while they expand. It also secures their dividend policy. They will be the big player in the recycling market. Big fish, low price... for now. They've been down to the resistance level, now (if I'm right) they should rise... to that 2.60 ish mark. I'd then expect 3.20 when that recycling plant opens in 2020. I reckon, this is a perfect ISA share.
if Goldman's constant switching of holdings is a good time to buy for small investors. If that's the case, they are now going to short it back down in the short term to about 2.15ish before they switch back and take the rise. They make money both ways. If so there may be a good moment to buy in again soon. If not, then bang goes another theory.
Famous last words, but for what it's worth, I reckon next stop is 2.50-2.60. The original idea was to float this at 2.20, but they floated at 1.80. It is a much more consolidated company since then with an increased dividend so 2.20 - 2.30 seems a bit light. L&G wouldn't buy in for a small 30p rise and I keep wondering why Goldman have 25m shares in this. They must see the potential. Debt is high, but not a major long term issue if they keep buying good companies. The income stream from a business in something we produce all the time is secure - they just need to make sure the margins remain viable and the more companies they own, the more they can scale the businesses. I also reckon the recycling/energy from waste divisions (2020) will put this on the ethical buy lists of investment companies that want an alternative to energy utilities. So on balance, it's a good bet with a dividend - but like I say, famous last words...
causing a squeeze. Legal and General picked up almost 6%, I see. This is fast becoming a good alternative to the utilities that Corbyn might nationalise... if that disaster ever happens.
Why would Avenue pick up a further 2% in this? They bought it back to market in 2017 by selling a stake. Their 17.5% + Goldman's 10% takes them (or someone they are working with) close to the trigger point... Or perhaps it's all just my over-active imagination.
Why would Goldman buy 250m shares in a UK waste company? I understand 3% for an investment, perhaps, but 10%... Anyway, from an income POV it's becoming more attractive daily at the moment.
that they keep winning business. Results will be in line with expectations. Also good news after the uncertainty of Catchpole's sudden departure. If the price were to double from here (not saying it will) it would still only have a market cap of 24m. It's risky, but then what isn't in AIM? Only 40 million-ish shares in issue and most of them are in the hands of long term investors/directors. Perhaps we've seen the dark before the dawn...
Why the sudden departure? Can't be a fraud, because it would have ben the CFO that went... which is reassuring.
Must be something more dramatic than a disagreement on direction of policy, because he has been unanimously booted off the board without the niceties. So unless Catchpole's done something wrong in another company and got himself struck off (he did put all his shares in different family member's names recently, so perhaps he had to) this must have been a power play on the board... with the new kid on the block being the winner. The main shareholders haven't sold out... yet. I did email the company asking for a reason, but they haven't supplied one yet. I won't hold my breath.
Richards Pike bought in big time yesterday. Goldman's stake is now over 10%.
So they're the ones who have been buying those chunks... looks like a classic buying operation to help someone build a stake. It also goes up when everything else is falling. Things are getting interesting and the chart looks like 2.75 is in sight.
they have reserves to cover the equivalent of one year of cash burn at the same pace as this year. Meanwhile, they've done almost all the hard work on setting up in the US and are looking east. The roll out of their cloud platform (Amazon style) is quick and has the potential of multipying revenues. The chart shows the 50 day and 20 day averages meeting. If it holds or breaks through 30p then I would expect positive sentiment for this year to move higher it to at least 35p. There aren't many free shares about. They've marked it down on the increased annual loss, but I would expect it to return to 30p (and therefore higher) on the basis that these results are retro-respective of an expensive year. The directors certainly went out of their way to explain the position and hidden in there is a hint for a surprise on earnings this year from the roll-out of contracts signed in the period. Of course, I could be wrong... but there are only about 40m shares knocking about and I own most of them (only joking). Can't see much selling just before the fun starts... but, like I say, I could be wrong.

Someone keeps buying chunks on the quiet. The market makers tried to knock the stops out twice last week. A director buys this week. The chart is looking to break out... hmmm. I'm wondering about the Chinese. Of course, it could just be the heat.
buying. The best bit of that RNS, yesterday, is the rise in recurring business. It means that new orders add straight to the bottom line. It has cash in the bank too. It's going to NT today, even for a small amount... mind you, there aren't many shares in issue. 33p seems to be a resistance point...
what is gold in the ground actually worth? I fear the answer to that is actually nothing, because you can't sell it in the ground. Value only comes from digging it up. Colin Bird can sell the asset, of course, but that would be at a loss to the shareholders. The company has made a series of catastrophic decisions and we've paid for it. Sauve qui peut.
