Featuring AFC Energy (AFC), Hurricane Energy (HUR), Mercom Oil Sands (MMO), Surgical Innovations (SUN), and Totally (TLY)
AFC Energy (AFC) is currently enjoying its day in the sun as the AIM Casino’s favourite fuel cell stock. Hydrogen fuel cell technology companies were all the rage in 2006/7 at about the time AFC Energy was floated, with Ceres Power and ITM Power reaching stratospheric valuations before crashing back down to earth and, in the case of Ceres Power, all but wiping out shareholders.
Fuel cells are already big business in some parts of the world, which is good news for the companies that make and supply them, such as AFC Energy (AFC).
Shares in AFC Energy (AFC) have performed well of late, more than doubling since Roman Abramovich’s vehicle Ervington Investments acquired 15% of the company last October for the price of an ageing midfielder (£8.7 million). The shares trade at 38.75p today down from a recent high of 50p to give a market cap of around £90 million
AFC Energy (AFC) listed on AIM in April 2007 with a stated aim of commercialising its fuel cell technology. Its chairman then and now was sleazy MP Tim Yeo. Investors in the original placing were told that the company would deliver multiple systems to customers by August 2008. Yup. Right. Natch that has not happened and the old guard (except sleazy Tim) departed a year ago.
I can already say that as far as spotting rallies / recoveries in the minnows, there are actually only three main charting configurations to watch out for. The one currently at AFC Energy is actually of the Leyshon (LRL) / Petrel (PET), Leni Gas (LGO). You won’t see this kind of analysis anywhere else!
