"Seriously, a year ago PLUG was $18 dollars a share! Do you really want to compare."
yes i do....it doesnt matter what the pps of each was...the point is the amount they have dropped...plug dropped around 80% in the last year and Fcel dropped about 70%....not a whole lot of difference...i suppose one could say that Fcel sucked slightly less than Plug did but thats hardly a positive...
"Charts are one thing, financials are another."
they both suck for both companies...
"I have been long on Plug for some time, however you can't get away from the cash burn they have."
they are both burning through cash..
"The lack of management is enough to make the most seasoned investor run for the hills."
both ceo's suck...
" I would much rather at this point in time see them partnered Exxon."
you would rather that Plug partner with exxon and i would rather that Fcel partner with Amazon...whatever...the fact is that no matter what either is doing with whomever, both of their charts and financials suck...
"You know a company that actually has cash."
pretty sure Amazon has cash...
Exxon may eventually choose to resign Fcel to a contract...but they dont really have too...they have been collaborating with Fcel on R/D for almost 10 years...they co-own all that new tech...and years ago, Exxon paid Fcel a few million bucks for the rights to all their previously developed tech...so they really dont need Fcel at all...which is why they havent bothered to resign them...but there is a possibility that they could...or they can buy out Fcel for about 2 bucks per share which would cause just about every single shareholder to lose money...
just looking at the name "Exxon" as a partner sounds wonderful...but the devil is in the details...sure every small company wants to partner with a behemoth...and 1 out of every 100 are glad they did...the other 99 wished they had hung up the phone when they called...
