The latest Investing Matters Podcast with Jean Roche, Co-Manager of Schroder UK Mid Cap Investment Trust has just been released. Listen here.
Soon, they will start paying buyers to just take the stuff away !
E121 - Thanks for your level headed post , much appreciated !
Obviously I will not be selling at these levels and will wait for MBS and Putin to achieve their objective of "sending a wrecking ball" through the world's oil production. This will smash down the world's oil production going forward.
The demand side will begin to come back when this disease has run it's course. 2020 looks a "write-off" for my investment here, however we are seeing a "set-up" for $100 oil a year or two out.
Hoping the results out next Thursday will have some written confirmation that Enquest has the ability to "ride" this out !
All the best guys and try to ignore the "fruit cake"

Lol Chilting,
Sounds like it could have been my wife.
We wenr for our weekly shop today at Tesco. She was doing the occasional cough to keep people away from her. Nothing wrong with her and she does not have a cough. Just her way to keep people away .
We are f--ing flying now.
Brent back above $30 and our SP is almost back to bloody 9p.
Break open the bubbly Jeeves. Let's celebrate !
Crickey I can see 20p by Easter.
No that's not the share price you moron It's the price of a litre of petrol.
Anyone for a 1p Party ?
NO I thought not !

The last time the share price was down at these levels was January 2016 . I was able to top up as I had cash to do so. Now like some LTH's I am "all-in" and do not have any more funds to commit. Like others my large investment was always an investment for my official retirement. Although I have some fear of the future, it is not a scary as 2016 . You get hardened to it I suppose. I am in NO hurry to sell and will wait. I don't officially retire for 10 years so I and others here have plenty of time to see this play out. Indeed POO was trading in a range and was never likely to see a huge spike . Now sometime in the future I can actually see a real oil price spike. So perhaps this is a blessing in disguise for investors able to play the long game.
ALL THE best
JAN.
Also hibernating for a while too. Other things to do in life while this plays out.
Does anyone have any info on US shale companies hedges. I ask because if they are well hedged on POO for 2020 then these very low prices will really not take effect until next year ! Surely if they are well hedged then Caped will not need to be cut as much as we are expecting this year.
E121 seems well versed on the shakers, What's your thoughts ?
E121,
If I remember correctly. At the time the market reacted negatively to the Cairn write down because it believed and went with the Cairn numbers and not Enquest's. Now this could have been because Kraken had problems at that time, however the valuation of Enquest was impacted to the downside at that time. To my knowledge this has not been reversed until now. I understand that bigger things are in play at this time, but it is a positive because now the market is able to take Enquest's numbers where as in the past it believed Cairn's. The market was valuing Enquest at % of it's NAV based on various influences, this should help to increase that percentage going forward.
My thoughts

Hitman,
Just seen/read it. You are right.
This is not priced in because no one could know Cairn would reverse their impairment before today.
It's big news indeed. Hopefully the market will pick it up. Worth 8p in my book !
I agree Z.F.G. this is a strong sell for me too !
I can't see the big revenue !
I can see the operating costs - maybe why it's falling !
Not one for my watchlist - all the best Neil.
How much are you underwater here ??
