Pokerchips, my assesment of Petrofac is based on more than just the price action on any specific day and looking at the erosion of traction in securing new contracts in the region, going forward.
With the culture of 'financial inducements' rife in the sector & region, along with Petrofac's severe restriction in being able to operate in such an environment, the effects on securing said contracts is obvious.
It's no point highlighting contracts recently secured in other countries, for which negotiations and associated 'inducements' have already been paid - focus on how profits are likely to be affected by such a crippling blow to an important operating region - and no doubt, beyond.
That will very likely see a severe erosion of the share price over the coming months and beyond any transient price action today, imo.
