DJM1- no that will not be the case. IIs are just like normal shareholders, therefore they not entitled to get progress updates before they are released to the market via a RNS, even though they maybe in contact with CEO.To do do would be considered market abuse and insider trading, since it can allow people to exit their positions before bad new is released. That said however the world is not perfect and it does happen as there will be various people in the know at this point (workers on site, consultants, nomad staff, bod) . and news flies around like wildfire. As you say the share prices is skating away and the BOD continue to stay quiet, which is bringing down sentiment even further. I suspect there is some of issue at the well as we still haven’t received a RNS along the lines “the well continues to produce oil during the testing phase” before releasing one with the bopd if they didn’t want to issue that prematurely. As for the TR1 notifications again people are assuming it’s a positive without knowing what their motives are. Potentially a take over but at what price? If the current bod fail to deliver but the Solo directors see value in the assets and are confident they can deliver, get could in theory put in a bid at say 7p a share which makes it easier for them owning such a large amount of equity.
