Ouch. We need to get the dividend raised at least above 1%.....
Thanks. Hopefully I am wrong and this somehow rises above $0.40 in the near future...... I could get out and many of you would win big.
I did buy some more..... some in 2020 (average on those is $0.3264 per share) and then got some more in 2021 (average on those is $0.2011 per share). Every time that I have purchased, this has kept going down. The historical R/S's have not helped either..... so I am not purchasing more at this time.
Overall, I am down 65%. I don't have a huge position here, but I also don't like being that deep in the red. I believe this will just float around the $0.10 - $0.20 mark for the next year or so.... too many variables and uncertainties on the global stage..... just my opinion.
'Strange it has not taken off or gathered the attention one would expect.'
I have been here over 4 yrs, and I am still sitting on shares with an adjusted cost per share of $9.0975. I have seen and read all the "positive" and "great" news, as well as how the company has 'cleaned-up, diversified, etc.'
In this market and world stage right now, why would this get attention or take off? Proven, successful companies are in decline. I see AEPT being dormant for quite a while longer.... even though I want and need it to run higher than anyone can imagine.
Absolutely. What a great 2 days.....
Yeah, that one from yesterday is no fun. But what about:

So, nothing but good news releases this morning, and this tanks even harder right out of the gate? So..... should we expect a $2-3 drop is SP with every positive article/news? Stripping this down to 52-wk low?
Boy did this get hammered down. What was that all about?
Don't forget..... Gen9 panels will be live (up and running) at the mini-plant right around 2035........ give or take 20+ yrs..... Or am I mistaken/confused? Hard to tell these days....
Yes, I hope we get back over $10+....... as my average SP is $8.747 right now....
Do you think this will pull back though, as it has risen and then slumped back down numerous times in the last 12 months..... Do we test $4 again before we test $6+?
Look at insurance stocks, historically, as interest rates rise and/or are higher. I think you'll see companies like Universal go back up to the $20's, and I think PGR might get above $125 within a year or so...... IMO.
Should keep going higher as interest rates rise as well.....
Another mention to Nasdaq? C'mon.... Let's see if we can get to $0.07 and hold there for more than a minute.........
Looks like that answers my question....... wow, what is happening here yesterday and today?
Can we stay above 4, or will this be dragged down again tomorrow?
Do we see a push up towards $200 by tomorrow, or does this slide back to $180? Big daily jumps and slides here lately......
And the SP keeps falling...... even though:

Anyone still here? Nice Q4 numbers today. Any chance this can climb to $30 in the next few weeks?
Um, that's not what he said. He said "you can't handle the truth." If we want to be accurate.....
Been here over 4 yrs....... patience is an understatement. Heard a lot of "positives" and the SP is down 99% in that time. SP is down over 60% since the end of 2020. I wouldn't count on this rising too much.... once it starts, there'll be a lot of selling/dumping.
NCL Corporation Ltd. Announces Closing of $2,035,000,000 of Senior Secured Notes, Senior Unsecured Notes and Exchangeable Notes
8:00 am ET February 22, 2022 (Globe Newswire) Print
NCL Corporation Ltd. ("NCLC"), a subsidiary of Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd. (NYSE: NCLH) ("NCLH"), announced today that it has closed its previously announced private offerings of $1,000.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.875% senior secured notes due 2027 (the "Secured Notes"), $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 7.750% senior unsecured notes due 2029 (the "Unsecured Notes" and collectively with the Secured Notes, the "Notes") and $435.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 2.50% exchangeable senior notes due 2027 (the "Exchangeable Notes").
The offering of the Notes closed on February 18, 2022 and the offering of the Exchangeable Notes closed on February 15, 2022. NCLC used the net proceeds from the offerings of the Notes and the Exchangeable Notes to redeem all of the outstanding 12.25% Senior Secured Notes due 2024 and 10.250% Senior Secured Notes due 2026 and intends to use the remainder of such proceeds to make principal payments on debt maturing in the short-term, including, in each case, to pay any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, as well as related premiums, fees and expenses.
The Secured Notes and the related guarantees will be secured by first-priority interests in, among other things and subject to certain agreed security principles, three of our vessels. The Secured Notes are guaranteed by our subsidiaries that own the vessels that will secure the Secured Notes.
NCLC has granted the initial purchasers of the Exchangeable Notes an option to purchase, during a 13-day period beginning on, and including, the first day on which the Exchangeable Notes are issued, up to an additional $65.0 million aggregate principal amount of Exchangeable Notes. The Exchangeable Notes are general senior unsecured obligations of NCLC and guaranteed by NCLH. Holders may exchange all or a portion of the Exchangeable Notes at the holder's option (i) at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding August 15, 2026, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and during certain periods, and (ii) on or after August 15, 2026 until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date, regardless of whether such conditions have been met. Upon exchange of the Exchangeable Notes, NCLC will satisfy its exchange obligation by paying and/or delivering, as the case may be, cash, ordinary shares of NCLH ("ordinary shares") or a combination of cash and ordinary shares, at NCLC's election. NCLC will pay any cash required to be paid upon exchange of the Exchangeable Notes. If NCLC elects to satisfy its exchange obligation solely in ordinary shares or in a combination of ordinary shares and cash, the Exchangeable Notes will convert into Series A Preference Shares of NCLC ("preference shares"), which shall immediately and automatically be exchanged for a number of ordinary shares. The initial exchange rate per $1,000 principal amount of Exchangeable Notes is 28.9765 ordinary shares, which is equivalent to an initial exchange price of approximately $34.51 per ordinary share, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The initial exchange price represents a premium of approximately 52.50% above the last reported sale price of the ordinary shares on the New York Stock Exchange on February 10, 2022.
The Notes were offered only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and outside the United States, only to non-U.S. investors pursuant to Regulation S. The Exchangeable Notes were offered only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The Notes, the related guarantees, the Exchangeable Notes, the related guarantee of NCLH, the preference shares and the ordinary shares issuable upon the exchange of preference shares will not be registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state laws.
This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any security and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

I thought we were gonna have Gen9 panels in 2035. Now I'm confused.
Hate to tell ya, but 900 million shares at $0.06 is..... $54 million, and not $54K.
Even if the SP dropped all the way down to $0.0006, the cost for 900 million shares would be $540K.
What an incredible drop in a couple hrs. When the market goes bad, BA goes worse. Just wow.
This stock has become worthless. Another losing quarter, and everyone is bailing. Universal has raised insurance premiums 20-80%+ over the past 12 months, and they have non-renewed thousands and thousands of policyholders as well. This used to be a good stock back in the $30's and $40's, but those days are long gone and not to be seen again for many many years at least.
Grey market.
This will go below $3 again before it reaches $4, even though I want/need it to go back to $20+..........
Well, only 2.8 trillion now, so going in the direction you prefer?
Yes, wish I still had some of my Call options.........
So another earnings beat, and the SP goes straight downhill? This is one messed up market....
Looks like it's dropped quite a bit since your post. What is there to stop this bleeding from continuing in the short-term?
Looks like we could challenge Monday's low again today.....
Looks like this is that upward bump. NCLH getting ready to dock 5 ships again..... https://www.cruiseindustrynews.com/cruise-news/26568-norwegian-cancels-more-january-cruises-on-additional-ships.html
How can this SP keep climbing? It has to tumble again in the next few days.....
What are you talking about? HYSR can't produce any amount of hydrogen for commercial use right now, and you're saying that they will be building, supplying, and running a few hydrogen fueling stations in roughly a year or so? That kind of timeline is..... unthinkable.
Looks like we just blew through it. Now let's hope it stays up, and we don't get a massive sell-off again.....
The more good/positive news we get, the more the SP drops. I don't see the good news stopping, so...... wait for $12-14 until buying more?

Ha. I don't think Cramer jumps out of his own comfort zone very much...
Are we really going to challenge the $5 mark again? I thought we were past this after the tax-loss selling.......
How many days until this becomes Nasdaq deficient again? Took a little longer than usual this time......
As did I earlier. And it continues going down further..... scratching my head.....
Plug Power Is an Industry Leader, Analysts Say. But the Stock Is Dropping. -- Barrons.com
12:38 pm ET January 5, 2022 (Dow Jones) Print
By Sabrina Escobar
Plug Power shares were dropping Wednesday, even after KeyBanc Capital Markets initiated coverage on the stock with an Overweight rating.
Analyst Leo Mariani sees Plug Power (ticker: PLUG) as a leader within the fuel cell industry, due to its high revenue growth, scalable business, and strong corporate partnerships. Mariani's price target for the stock is $40.
Plug Power fell 3.4% to $27.19 on Wednesday. Shares slipped 22% last year.
"We prefer fuel cell companies that have the right corporate and government partners, which we think are needed for market access, and strong revenue growth potential throughout the rest of the decade," Mariani wrote in a research note.
Plug Power, which makes hydrogen fuel-cell-powered fork lifts, fits the bill. The company has one of the l argest scale businesses compared with its public peers, Mariani said. Its revenue growth is at more than 50% per year for the next few years, and has crafted strong partnerships with Amazon, Home Depot, General Motors, and Walmart, which contribute more than 50% of consolidated revenue, he added.
"Going forward, PLUG hopes these key customers will become purchasers of its stationary power fuel cell systems and develop more H2 powered commercial vehicle capability as these companies already have the hydrogen fuel infrastructure in place to do so," Mariani wrote.
The company is the dominant player in the business, with about 90% market share globally, the analyst said. It is likely Plug Power maintains this share, as it targets to generate more than $750 million in revenue from its material handling business in 2024 and deploying more than 125,000 of its GenDrive units.
Marini believes Plug will shortly benefit from expanding its global reach. The company has strategic alliances with major players in South Korea, France, Spain, and Australia that will continue to catalyze growth in the coming years.
"We think these important partnerships put PLUG in a good position to grow its business internationally as Europe, South Korea, and Australia are very focused on making hydrogen an integral part of their energy futures," he wrote.
To top it off, the company has $3.5 billion in cash on its balance sheet as of Sept. 30, 2021 -- enough for three years' worth of funding. This is key for the analyst, who doesn't foresee Plug becoming cash flow positive until 2024 at the earliest, especially as it embarks on an ambitious plan to build out a network of green hydrogen production plans in North America and Europe.
"Sales of liquid hydrogen have been a money losing business for PLUG historically, but we expect this to turn around in 2023," he said.
