I bought in yesterday. The Market cap is so low based on the contracts coming in. Wind energy is the way to go.

FTSE down this is up for once lol

Like a lot of tech shares this has had its hyped up share price period - now its in the real world, which is often an opportunity for the more patient investor.

People get frustrated and bored with a share thats bumbling along going nowhere. That doesn’t mean the business is going nowhere.

Imo the folk who pile in on news and “new”shares have gone.

The calm before the storm ;)
Has to be in discussions with G7.
I'm Expecting announcements shortly

Strange share, this one. You would think with G7 meetings and climate change being at the the top of the agenda. Companies like TGP would be favour of the month, and not going down nearly 4%.🤷‍♂️

Why is this tanking today?

[pinemartin9] 09/6/2021 19:30

Quite honestly unless anyone has taken the time to scrutinise the accounts and thinks there is a share dilution coming or an imminent negative transformational company specific event about to happen then why would anyone be short? It would be a daft short! This is in a major growing area with global dynamics behind it and contract announcements lurking as possibilities at any time. They could also be a take over target if other competitors see value in their products and contracts.

That is the best punchline...one hears all too often within the Plc casino markets...



The place is full of world-beating forward statements based on nothing.

[yump] 09/6/2021 17:43

The world is full of investors who buy when charts look fantastic and then regret it.

Buying when there's a bottomed out chart is just psychologically difficult, but it isn't if you just look back at similar ones, to see what happens next. Assuming the businesses are not just made up of dreams of course and actually do sell stuff. That's the tricky part. The place is full of world-beating forward statements based on nothing.

[charlie9038] 09/6/2021 15:55

So far so good, nice to see some blue at last.

[diku] 09/6/2021 15:19

Move up and nobody here...everybody enjoying the sunshine...

[chrisdgb] 08/6/2021 10:25

Looks and smells like a lovely recovery situation.........contract news along the way should act as a steer for investors...

[diku] 08/6/2021 08:13

Hope so...you mean history to repeat...

[pinemartin9] 07/6/2021 22:38

Yeah. I think the shorters may be unwinding. They've had their fun, added liquidity to the market, hopefully scalped their 15% profit or whatever and are now moving on. No major news here for the short term, with the prospect of contract wins any day that could cause a quick 10% rise. It's happened before. There certainly seems a lot of strength in the 45-50p area. We could be in for a period of consolidation or alternatively what happened end last year could happen again, when the share price went from 45p to 80p in about 2 weeks!

[johny cash] 07/6/2021 20:21

The chart looks good to me.

[charlie9038] 06/6/2021 20:45

I'm holding for the long on this. Give it another 12 months at least.

[diku] 02/6/2021 21:50

As for that chart it looks horrible...and PI's are getting suckered in with small bounces...

[buywell3] 02/6/2021 19:01

When a new CFO comes into a company

IMO and experience a cash raise usually follows

With the results and track record over the last 5 years , previous cash raises , one would think that a cash raise now or soon would have to be at a discount of circa 20%

40p is the guess of buywell

Now that the dust has settled on yesterday's news it's worth reflecting a little. We didn't see the feared bloodbath that many predicted, instead we have seen resilience and what appears to be stabilisation at the 48p level. Back end of last year we dropped to ~45p and have tested again now. As the previous poster says a consolidation at this level looks to be on the cards. Hopefully that will be underpinned by contract wins and improvements in the general business climate as COVID gradually passes. I suspect a few shorters popped in over recent weeks which won't have helped things.

Would I buy more now if I was looking with fresh eyes and didn't have a position? Probably not right now as there will probably be a period of consolidation before (hopefully) a gradual uptrend. Equally, what's the downside from here? Relatively modest in my opinion, with the possibility of decent contract wins at any time. Would I continue to short if I was short, or add to my short position? It's an irrelevant question for me as I'm not short, but if I was I would be looking to get out and move on presumably having made decent money and not wanting to see my profit erode.

With all of this in mind the risk/reward looks reasonably compelling at this price. However, I said that recently when I purchased at 52p! I don't like being down to the tune of 10% and I'm not buying more as I've got my fill already. I'm a hold for now but I would consider buying if I was looking with fresh eyes. When this moves it could be quick.

[charlie9038] 01/6/2021 14:59

Nearly bottomed out by the looks of things....The only way is UP from here!

[1tommyt] 01/6/2021 12:48

this group is more than just the original Tekmar Energy and cable protectors it has 5 companies in 17 locations and lots of IP.

[pinemartin9] 01/6/2021 12:20

Disagree - there's more going on than just that. That's one comment in isolation so I'd urge others to read the full statement and not consider the above in isolation.

[elsa7878] 01/6/2021 10:09

Cable Protection System Generational Development.
Global demand for this product remains strong over the longer-term, although industry analysts highlight a drop-off in new capacity coming on-stream in 2022, before an acceleration in demand from 2023 onwards. Tekmar will develop its Generation 11 technology to meet this upturn in demand from projects going into installation in 2023.

Dead money if invested here for 18 months on the basis of the above.
