Mani01, needless to say, our elephant in the room may also be set free anytime soon given recent developments, that in itself would open Serica up to a significant larger audience too.

Mani01,
"Is the end game approaching?.."
Well it does feel like now or never to me.
Or, the market could just be preparing for another O&G boom bubble if the West carry through on threats to weaning itself off Putin's hydrocarbons.

Real step change in trade values today too.

There is of course the factor that the invaders have sabotaged to the rig. If that is the case then I retract my views
I haven't . This is Spiv alert at the highest level. My guess is the rudkis are involved. As for the divers. What are their daily rate. Another gravy train for the tax Dodgers inmv dyor research etc etc

Well, that RNS took us by surprise, although given Fridays 22pt fall I guess not everyone was !! SQZ really need to tighten their ship (platform), this was not the first occasion and probably not the last. Also little over 414k dark pool trades took place.
After having a buy order auto-executed during the fall, given RNS I decided to cut my overweight holding by ~12% but having seen the market response into close I'm now thinking could well be a mistake. Looking at the large trades that followed RNS, appears I my not have been alone! That said, I have placed orders to replenish part of my holding should the SP fall below my sale price and remainder if fall is substantial within next few weeks or so.

Volume was nothing to write home about with no real large trades and very low % of BoT trades ( lowest % for many, many months), yet we still gave up all our gains and some from Thursdays news of Putin's invasion ( note : NOT RUSSIA's ). Unbelievable 22pt's (7.6%) fall given NBP esp with NS2 sunk that Mr Market took us back down below Thursdays opening. Added few more on Friday and will do again should a Hughie Green opportunity comes knocking !
As for Putin, esp after today's worrying turn of events, he should either be ousted, placed in an asylum or removed by lethal method asap ... I'm not one for wishing ill on anyone, but there comes a time when enough is enough, that time was last Thursday afaic.
All very much imo & dyor

NBP Fut happy to pop its head above 200p/therm again today .... All it will take is Putin to cut all supplies to EU which will cause absolute mayhem in the gas market for EU and Putin knows this as does the EU/UK, which I'm sure is one main reason why our 'barrage of UK sanctions against Russia' have taken the 'sanctions-lite' option. Putin has the EU in 'check', for the moment. As Sasa mentioned its put " a premium on the appeal of North Sea oil & gas interests.." Firstly though, SQZ needs to consolidate yesterdays gains ready for another move up.

It was Roman Abramovich transferring his Evraz holding from the British Virgin Islands to himself in Russia last week that screamed to me "invasion 100%, gas will fly" so I put a bit more in here. Yesterday Dmitry Medvedev's comment about the EU about to enjoy 1000 cubic meters for 2000 euros (I make it 480p a therm) is what's making me consider sitting very tight. Shaping up for near £400m net when it all catches up, gas does look happy at 167-195p on several futures charts.

SD321,
Thanks, good news ... just about to see what the progress ( OR LACK OF) was with NS2 after yesterday.
Should really ensure elevated prices for at least next 12-18 months I would say .... the final commissioning and sign off checks before NS2 could be fully up and running, I've seen as taking around 6 months. So even if they were to reverse and give the go-ahead tomorrow, winter 2022 will be with us before you know it. On for a new ATH in matter of no time, now that would be nice !

BREAKING: Germany halts the certification of Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline from Russia as West takes punitive measures against Moscow over Ukraine.
NBP Fut up ~8% ( 187.75p), Brent now $95.40 .... Should give us a bump up, I say should, the way our SP has been moving recently, anyone's guess.
btw, s/b 'support' of course ....

Off to an unusual start to the day with a super long opening auction lasting 5:39 ... never seen one that long before on SQZ.
SP touched once again resistance of lower rising channel, managed to recover throughout the day to flat until last hour when she was dropped again to close down 4.5pt's. NBP finished flat from Friday close at 173p/therm and Brent / WTI went on a run that continued well after LSE closed. Brent currently $95.33.

The plot thickens Newkotb. I think we are now in a very good position. Unless of course a storm stops production.
