Any idea how much Leonardo Corp is worth now compared to IH, BLP or BEC?
Hi Dr Richard,
Good question. The main reason we are still talking about Rossi is that the estimated value of Leonardo is somewhere between zero and a trillion USD.
Cheers,
JB

Absent any new facts, if you are asking for opinions, I think all three are worth absolutely nothing long term because none of their concepts have been properly proven to work and, IMO, such proof is very improbable for the future. If anyone cares, I still hold some (slight) hope for Alan Smith et al. and Mizuno. Otherwise, LENR is looking bleak. And the more time that passes without a device, proven to work by a credible and main line organization, the bleaker. And no, Brillouin/SAI is not a counter example.
How about Norront Fusion/Holmlid's prospects then? They seem to be convinced they are onto something involving meson release from ultra dense H but still have no clear explanation/theory how protons start spontaneously fragmenting on establishing the ultra dense state. This rate of meson release then increases massively on laser stimulation. Three possibilities are 1) background radiation including dense matter absorption of neutrinos 2) a chiral anomaly and 3) the UDH possesses properties of a Bose-Einstein condensate so can stop laser photons or neutrinos which may interact to form weak-force mediating W- or Z-bosons. Whatever the mechanism, their low energy production of -muons allows for a previously unexploited form of muon-catalysed fusion by coupling a -muon generator to a H/D plasma,
Thanks for reminding me. There is slight hope for them as well. I know very little about their concept and have no good way to evaluate it. Yet.
we_cat_global - we're probably stiil talking about AR because he's just such a flamboyant character (I wonder how he's getting on with his Mizuno reactor replication - and will he turn it into a stainless steel E-cat?)
I wonder what Mr. Dewey Weaver is doing these days.
Looking despondent and grouchy last time I saw him. But I've no doubt he'll pop in and tell us it's all good. I must have caught him on a bad 3 days.

Ouch. If he does not react to this digital bitchslap he is probably pretty despondent..
Interested in Woodford?

No - because they always screw up in the end.
Expected date, year end. They are expected to liquidate/disperse the WPCT holdings- though that is speculation, not a given.

Not sure ...
..."the company subsequently secured contracts with a low-energy nuclear company in Chicago for $45,000, an amount that could increase in the future. Another company
in Texas is also pursuing the validation services of McFarland Instrumentation Services."

Thanks for that. Losses are down from $15 million in 2017 to $5 million in 2018. There are suggestions in the report that the company will not remain a "going concern" without new investments. I wonder if they will get some.

I read that as a pretty standard risk disclosure. Though it's an old balance sheet, with 27m in cash, and ~5m of cash burn, they seem to be fine for now.
How much does Woodford own of IH?
Today Link took an axe to the Woodford Patient Capital Trust’s stake in Industrial Heat for the second time in three months. The value was written down by 83% to less than £10 million due to a “delay in operational progress”.
In August Link wrote down the value from £88 million to £58 million.
Industrial Heat’s valuation had ballooned to 357% before Woodford’s troubles emerged, triggering concerns over his investments.
The impact of the writedown was to cut the Patient Capital Trust’s value by 4.3p, taking into account a small write-up of another unnamed stake.
Shares fell 7% down 2.6p to 35.32p.
Schroders has been appointed to manage the trust after Woodford resigned as his business imploded. It will be renamed Schroder UK Public Privat
