ITM Power - ITM - Share Chat

My personal opinion, which of course reflects my current position in the company, is that despite the obvious disconnect between the SP and the fundamentals, with a long term view of 5-10 years (which is vital when holding a stock like this) anything under 500p right now is a potential bargain.

I personally won’t be buying more over 300p for a variety of reasons, namely the potential of incoming widespread financial disaster, and also the SP’s recent rate of acceleration. This is a stock which has seen recent Institutional Investment, had lots of news coverage, much of it mainstream, and has also been very popular with day traders. This makes me believe that people will start to tread carefully once 300p is breached, and the SP will remain somewhat steady around this area until we hear more good news that backs up the companies financial fundamentals.

I think 220-240p is the new base. With all the recent focus on Green energy and Hydrogen in particular, ITM will keep attracting the attention of new investors. If you can get in under 300p and sit on your hands and forget about it for a couple of years - you’re sweet. If the price does drop significantly along with the wider market, and goes sub 200p - you’ve done fantastically well.

While this all sounds like advice, it is most definitely not. Please do your own research, as everything I say, despite being based my own thorough research, is 100% my own opinion and could prove to be absolute rubbish.

Good luck! :slight_smile:

Thanks for your thoughts, very interesting! I think I will take a small position at the current price. Hopefully it drops a bit and goes on sale soon. It does seem to have a lot potential.

Is it too late to invest in this?

I don’t think so when you look at all the new projects they’re getting into. They could become a global player if some of the post lockdown investment goes into renewables. DYOR I’m being giddy and optimistic!

OK i’ve done a lot of research into ITM… I loved it in November last year and went all in at well under £1. I bought more at £1.25 and sold enough shares to cover my initial total investment. I am trading wiht free money now. I subscribe to two expensive but large research companies who gave me this stock to begin with - I agreed wiht one key point one of them made - that being FORGET cars… just focus on the hydrogen replacing natural gas in the UK gas infrastructure (which was originally intended for hydrogen use decades ago) and the SP should take the company to £30 a share… thats the UK alone… and since my initial research last year, most of the announcements have been outside of the UK. Its a no brainer if you have a trailing stop loss in there at 14-15% of the moving price.

Good luck to everyone… this has been my biggest winner in the last 12 months by some margin so don’t think I know it all because i don’t… the financial crisis will wipe at least 25% of the current price WHEN it hits.

Part of me wants to dump the entirety of my investment funds into it and see what happens.

I think the time for that last year, but whenever I think it has reached at least a temporary peak it jumps up again!

Thanks Adam yeah I sold at £2 but long term it’s looking promising like my Ceres :pray:t5::pray:t5:

I ended up having a look at this after it got suggested.

Honestly I’m impressed and hopeful about what is coming in the future.

On the surface there were a lot of red flag but the company is doing a really good job managing the issues as far as I could tell. With a load of fresh new deals coming through, and hopefully a bigger drive with renewables, I ended up really liking the look of ITM!

They were down 25% at open today. Obviously covid has slowed them down a bit.

And it looks like EU funding has been cut due to the B-word. Interesting times

What B word?

The British Exit from the European Union. Or, in our circles a Complete Waste of Time which Benefits Nobody

Down 12% so far this, any further and it’ll be time to top up at a discount

That’s one way to look at it. The other is that they’re a small/new company operating in an undeveloped sector and will they be able to survive covid-19’s impact to their organisation, suppliers, customers, the general economy PLUS the extra brutal kicking that’s going to come from the absolute disaster of dumping all the EUs trade deals at the end of the year :confused:

I’m torn! But they were a speculative buy when I got in long ago and I’m still far higher up then I ever imagined possible so I think I’m just going to hold. Now if it dives closer to my buy in price then I’ll wondering whether to cash in or double down!

Totally agree, there is always a big risk with companies like ITM, especially with massive external shocks to the economy like COVID19 and brexit.

However, I am prepared to have 5-10% of my portfolio invested in more risky ventures as the potential rewards are much higher.

The problem comes when it’s 10% of your portfolio then becomes 20%+ in the space of a week or two :joy: okay not an awful problem to have…
