Q: Someone sent me a useful update on PLUG just over a year ago - I would appreciate an update - inc current prospects - as it looks as though it might be making a base etc and I wondered if they had got their financing sorted. On PTK do you know who offered them financing and if they are a credible - and supportive - player.

Q: Hello Folks:

Now that Chairman Powell has clearly stated that people should NOT expect aggressive rate cuts, how do you think it will impact Small caps? Will they languish for some more time?

IF, a big IF, Small caps do come alive, do you think one should hold more of Small cap growth or Small cap Value?

Also your word of wisdom about buying Small caps over Mid caps? Wouldn't the latter (Mid caps) benefit more if the interest rates remain the same, more or less? Here the assumption is that the rate cuts will benefit Small caps.

Many thanks in advance!

Yesterday I saw an analyst had raised his 2025 target price to “outperform” from 3.25 to 5.00 based on strong improvements mostly from the Triad business and recovery of the RV Lending business…what do you think?
