I agree with you 100%. I get tired of embarassing them and rubbing their faces in the dirt myself. There is no longer any sport in it because the game is so denseless.lol.
Anyone who entered into a short position from 1-12-18 to 1-31-18 and still holds their position is out of the money. Should have been much covering since between then and now. We had a high of 84 and a low of 71 between those dates. Last two days should have been a lot of covering. Perhaps re-entering at new highs, but i wouldn't do that. Time will tell. If we have new good news soon ( and the company has indicated that could happen ) that could be disasterous for shorts.Very good volume today.
Be nice to know who these large companies are. Be great if they were large construction companies who wanted to partner on large infrastructure projects.
Agree,
We all know Capstone has an excellent product line. Lets see now if they can flourish under an atmosphere a lot more suitable to growth with this new administration. I believe they can. Product, political trends, and a need for those products should equal success. Those are the elements i have been looking at.
Also,
Recent employee purchases on the open market are always a good sign.

Keep an eye out for more to come.
Shorts covering got the best deals they are going to get yesterday. The problem this stock is currently having is a lack of confidence. If they start closing on some of the fortune 100 and fortune 500 companies they are currently in the process of negotiations with then that confidence will be greatly enforced. Afterall, the basis for cleaning up their balance sheet was driven by their quest to close these types of deals. Phase one has proven to be successful. Anxiously awaiting next event.
Sorry i don't want to take them off your hands, they were bad deals for you. Live and learn. Lol.
New order from either fortune 100 or fortune 500 companies Capstone is currently renegotiating with would probably puts us over $1.00. Nothing to worry aBout, unless you are short.
American Bulls says to:
Signal:STAY LONG
Last Close:0.9270 Change:+0.2060 Percent change+28.57% Signal Update Our system’s recommendation today is to STAY LONG. The previous BUY signal was issued on 02/02/2018, 5 days ago, when the stock price was 0.7299. Since then CPST has risen by +27.00%.Market Outlook The bulls are strong. The negative sentiment that led to the last bearish pattern has evaporated. Besides, the signal is suggesting to STAY LONG. It is best to follow the signal and continue to hold this security, but with a more cautious attitude. more...
Wouldn’t the SP need to go down for that to happen. I think if they close one of those big orders with either one the fortune 100 and 500 companies they are negotiating with Capstone is golden. If I were short I would be hot under the collar about now. Better to take a small loss now, or small profit because I believe it won’t be getting better anytime soon for shorts.

Amen brother to that. We need to get Trumped.
Somehow my fat fingers screwed something up
The third paragraph should have read like this:
“The Masonic Village installation truly sets our microturbine technology apart from other power generation technologies as I do not see a similar sized internal combustion engine or fuel cell having this type of reliability and longevity,” said Darren Jamison, President and Chief Executive Officer of Capstone. “I understand that end-use customers like to focus on project first costs but what they really should focus on is overall system reliability, efficiency, uptime and length of continuous duty operation as that has much more impact on project economics and environmental benefits, not to mention operational resiliency,” added Mr. Jamison.”
CPST makes very energy efficient, dependable, very, very low maintenance equipment.
“The installation recently exceeded 700,000 total operating hours, with one of the C65 microturbines surpassing 135,000 hours alone. The microturbines have produced over 130,000-megawatt hours (MWh) of electrical and thermal energy, which is capable of powering 14,500 homes per year. The system has also helped Masonic Village reduce their carbon footprint by over 3,000 tons, generating carbon savings equivalent to eliminating 27 million miles driven by an average passenger vehicle.
“The Masonic Village installation truly sets our microturbine technology apart from other power generation technologies as I said Darren Jamison, President and Chief Executive Officer of Capstone. “I understand that end-use customers like to focus on project first costs but what they really should focus on is overall system reliability, efficiency, uptime and length of continuous duty operation as that has much more impact on project economics and environmental benefits, not to mention operational resiliency,” added Mr. Jamison.
Masonic Village is the recipient of the 2007 EPA CHP Partner Focus Award and is a final nominee for the 2018 EPA ENERGY STAR CHP Award for its continued highly efficient performance and significant ongoing environmental benefit.
“Capstone microturbines are long-term assets, designed to last in excess of 20 years,” said Jeff Beiter, Managing Partner of E-Finity Distributed Generation. “Having approximately 17 years of continuous operation, Masonic Village is a testament to the longevity and reliability of Capstone technology. It is achievements such as this that clearly set Capstone microturbines apart within their own industry as leading class technology,” concluded Mr. Beiter.”
And of those five yrs how many had Obama been President? Regulations, and turning away from petroleum and coal is what stalled this company. Obama put 1/2 a billion $ into a solar company just because it was in an industry he liked. Forget the fact that it went belly up months later. Obama knew nothing of business. Most of Europe relies predominately on natural gas, so what does Obama do? He puts sanctions on Russia, while sitting on natural gas exporatation applications of American natural gas companies. The heck with Europe or American companies make Europe build wind mills, which are too costly to build and maintain and are impractical and cannot survive without gov’t subsidies. You cannot make changes when you don’t have an alternative. You cannot change the world when the world is not ready for it. Look at N. Dakota. Everyone of those of new wells are on private property which his EPA could not stop from drilling. They tried but they couldn’t do it. And they still made it work even though they had to ship all of that oil in barrels by truck to trains because he wouldn’t help pay for pipelines to get the oil and gas out of there. That is why all the wells there flare their gas, you cannot practically ship gas by barrel. All of that natural gas revenue is lost for the land owners and companies like Capstone. It has been very difficult for Capstone to survive under those conditions. Hopefully they can survive long enough to take advantage of Trump initiatives.
Capstone Expands CHP Market in Canada with Major Canadian Real Estate Investment Trust

Shorts beware
Let’s hope that many companies and institutions will use their extra found cash (thanks to Trump) to make improvements and will do likewise.
Reading some of your posts it seems you are negative about all your stocks.
I was invested in this several yrs. ago and felt the same. But I thought the EPA and the Obama administration did not support anything to do with petroleum and were the cause of most of CPST's missery. So, i have decided to give it another try now that Trump is President. Should be nowhere near as many regulary requirements in the industry now and i believe things will open up for CPST. I guess we'll see.
Perhaps you spoke too soon. Lol.
Trump’s objective regarding Russia is to improve relations which may eventually relieve sanctions and fully open that huge natural gas market for Capstone. It would be logical to conclude that either that will happen or the USA will greatly expand exportation of our natural gas. Europe has a huge demand for natural gas and it has to come from somewhere. Hence Capstones efforts to expand its global markets.
Capstone Announces New Severe Environment Air Filtration System - Expands Presence in the Middle East with New Flare Gas Reduction Project in Oman
GlobeNewswireJanuary 3, 2018
CHATSWORTH, Calif., Jan. 03, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Capstone Turbine Corporation (www.capstoneturbine.com) (CPST), the world's leading clean technology manufacturer of microturbine energy systems, announced today that it has launched a new cleanable severe environment air filtration system for its innovative line of microturbine products and as a result recently received an order for three C65 microturbines utilizing this new filtration system for a flare gas reduction project in Oman.
They have some smart, innovative people working at Capstone. They need to transfere one or two of them to the marketing dept.
Also, why aren't more municipalities taking advantage of burning methane gases at landfills and sewerage treatment facilities? These also seem to be win, win situations. Is it possible that decision makers think of petroleum based products as harmful to the enviroment and are blinded by not knowing all the facts, or are their biases so entrenched that it interferes with decision making.?
Please don't sell your short positions, especially if you feel that strongly.
No reason why these micro turbines shouldn't be selling. When the infrastructure money comes through it should be a lot more sales for CPST. Got the right Administration in place for tremendous growth opportunities. Not anything like the past administration. Shorts beware.
Hopefully the influx of infrastructure money from the Feds will mean many more sales for CPST. Nice start with the news yesterday.
Guess they won't be losing nearly as much money then will they ?
What will Capstone do with Trumps proposed 42% corporate tax savings? Will they be Trump like and grow the company, or pull a Hilary and hoard the cash? Guess we will see soon.
Year end tax loss selling. Good time to short.
Hey bill,
What is O&G? I am getting old i can't even remember if i use to know what it is. Lol.
The problem has been the lack of a pipeline to transport oil and gas from the N. DAKOTA shale fields.From the oil revenues it was still practical to truck it to trains for shipment. But with natural gas prices so low they just decided to flare it. That will change soon with investments in infrastructure.
Recent news indicates Trump would like to normalize relations with Russia. I guess that would depend on ones perception of what normal relations are? Anyway, I imagine it would mean lifting all or most sanctions. Could be great news for Capstone. Interesting to see where that goes.
Bill,
Why does yahoo say 46M outstanding and the intro here says 304M. What am i missing? 46 on last on a recent 8k alSo.
Bill,
Everything is timing. Those lobbist chose to work for alternate fuel companies because they knew Obamma administration was pushing for that. Without gov subsidies those aternative fuel products are not profitable. Capstone is barely staying alive, but it is building a reputation for quality,reliability, andlong range cost savings, mainly ev
Beause of very low maintenance. Now is the time for capstone to lobby. Hopefully the will. Trump was/is a builder he should even be aware of M/Turbines
Bill,
I agree, CPST products are enviroment friendly, but the EPA didn't care about that because they had the psydo stigma of being associated with fossel fuels and because of that they just stalled their progress. Trump has done away with many regulations, lets just waiy and see what happens.
I believe Cpst revenues will improve now that we have a President that isn't married to the EPA. The quality of their product, its reliabity, adaptabity and the fact that perhaps as much as a $trillion will be spent on rebuilding the nations infrastructure will create great opportunities for CPST. They need to hire lobbist to promote the product on state and national levels. I'll give them 6 months to a year to make something happen, if it doessn't in that time frame it never will. The next eight years could be very, very good for CPST, but they need to aggressively pursue those opportunities their products are too good to fail, their executives need to show results or step aside.
