still dont get the clues...

[blacksheep]

It's a shocker

 

Yesterday was bad, today is nasty.

 

I would imagine a lot of stop losses are being activated and margins calls as well. A great day to be out of this action. I pity any companies bringing out good news today .

What's not mentioned in the Street Talk article:

 

IM3 NY is acquiring a near new US$200m facility for US$5m to produce 1GW. Production schedule for NY bought forward to Q2, 2019.

 

How they're acquiring those assets for that price is an unknown.

Sounds like someone's acquired someone's loss - i.e. fire sale assets.

At two and a half cents in the dollar. As great as it is for Magnis, thatÃÆâ€â„¢ÃƒÆ’ƒâہ¡ÃƒÆ’‚¢ÃƒÆ’¢Ã¢Ã¢Ã¢Ã¢â€š¬Ã…¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚¬ÃƒÆ’…¡Ãƒâہ¡ÃƒÆ’‚¬ÃƒÆ’¢Ã¢Ã¢Ã¢Ã¢â€š¬Ã…¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚¬ÃƒÆ’…¾Ãƒâہ¡ÃƒÆ’‚¢s a whole lot of pain for someone else!

"The grid-scale battery maker filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection last August but has remained operational while administrators looked for takers for the business, which is split between a Swiss parent group and a U.S. manufacturing base, "

 

"The U.S. arm, meanwhile, owns all the battery production equipment at a leased facility in Charlotte, North Carolina"

 

"Alevo is ÃÆâ€â„¢ÃƒÆ’ƒâہ¡ÃƒÆ’‚¢ÃƒÆ’¢Ã¢Ã¢Ã¢Ã¢â€š¬Ã…¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚¬ÃƒÆ’…¡Ãƒâہ¡ÃƒÆ’‚¬ÃƒÆ’â€Â¦ÃƒƒÂ¢Ãƒ¢Ã¢Ã¢â€š¬Ã…¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚¬ÃƒÆ’…âہ“rapidly working on restructuring options,ÃÆâ€â„¢ÃƒÆ’ƒâہ¡ÃƒÆ’‚¢ÃƒÆ’¢Ã¢Ã¢Ã¢Ã¢â€š¬Ã…¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚¬ÃƒÆ’…¡Ãƒâہ¡ÃƒÆ’‚¬ÃƒÆ’â€Å¡Ãƒƒâہ¡ÃƒÆ’‚ he said, and had already received offers from potential buyers that include a small European group with ties to major industrial players in Europe."

In August, Swiss battery maker Alevo closed its plant in Concord, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and laid off nearly 300 workers, a disappointing end to a once-promising start-up story.

Alevo arrived in Cabarrus County in 2014 with great fanfare, vowing to create hundreds of jobs through its revolutionary energy-storage technology on the site of a former Philip Morris cigarette factory. But production and hiring lagged those projections.
