When is the CPR due?
Tomorrow?, next week?, next month?
Yesterday, I read here that it is expected in March?
Have the company given a timeline?
IMHO this retrace is simply due to there being uncertainty as to the timing of the next piece of information, following a steep rise and also that there are other competing shares in the same sector who anticipate transformational news. You can blame all sorts of things including MMs, placing rumour, etc, etc, but the simple fact is that people are more than likely simply taking profit ahead of the next information leg up.

..........not sure how to interpret that? What do you think Buffett meant?

You are very naughty Slackbladder!
This subject has been debated ad nauseum across the fence, as you well know.
Hype is one reason and small PIs' predilection for penny shares is another, IMHO. There seems to be a view that irrespective of risk (another duster), the penny share has a greater potential to add value in multiples - a view that you get more bang for your buck. A casino mentality. That's not true of all, of course, but it applies to many who are hyping it up.
Fundamentals will always shine through eventually, though it seems to take longer. Another good example currently is COPL. they've even reached the point, as announced on 10 January of happening across a find which is actually starting to deliver oil to the surface and the SP is no higher now, even after a recent rise, than it was in October last year.
I'm not complaining , as I'm in both PANR and 88e with a much higher proportion here. Happy to wait but doubt I'll risk waiting for the results of our neighbours planned drill, polar bears permitting ;-), just ride the wave up to spud.

Yes I am, in this share anyways.
So what does it mean? People buy and others sell.
MM s screwing people - never heard that one before?
PANR - Hondris sells - conspiracy?
88e - Dave Wall sells - conspiracy?
Who is it here?

If the conspiracy theorists are correct in their assertions then they should at least tell us why the company needs the cash and how much is required for whatever it is.
Otherwise keep shtum.
Almost 400 posts in the day and we've not reached 4.30 yet! All bluster and conjecture.
If anyone has any reason to disbelieve the fundamentals, then please shout.

Many thanks for your help.

Any idea how?
It appears to require a fee but there is no apparent way of making an application to join.

Not much going on in the 'A' place either, other than a couple of glass half full contributors. They appear to have disappeared off onto a private board, Scot included.
Here? I think it's all been said really, just waiting for the news on the next steps.
Improved PR from the company would help, but then again, there plan is in place and hopefully they're in delivery mode. All appears on target so far.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! We're off! £10 by tea time today!..................any good?

Brom has been working extraordinarily hard of late to pour oil (if only?) on the troubled waters of discontent created by the questions over the environmental challenge to Merlin 2 and it is good to see that he' appears to be coming around to the potential value in linking Icewine with Talitha and Theta West.
Some of us have been long stating that this offers the best value for 88e. Pity it's too late to divert the rig from Merlin 2 back to do some more proving work in the vicinity of Icewine. Perhaps we can ask some of those Polar Bears to help push it across the frozen tundra. They won't be interested in staying there though - far too close to the Highway and the pipeline - the noise and traffic would disturb their hibernation ;-)

Baldrick,
Happy to hear that you too are invested in the neighbour. Fingers crossed for a great drilling season.
If you're going to try to pick me up on what I've said before, at least get it right - you appear to know much of what I've posted in the past and so no excuses. The Jay remark was just after the funds had been secured and he did indeed look like the cat who'd got the cream. My statement was in regard to the fact that he felt that having secured funds he could perhaps play harder ball on Ts&Cs with any prospective farm out partner - not really a ramp. Good for him, and good for us, wouldn't you say?
As to my holdings here, I've been around since early 2017, got painfully caught on a spike in June that year and finally extricated myself in April 2021, so I think I've earned my spurs when it comes to entitlement to comment. You call me a deramper, I would call myself an anti-ramper - a not so subtle difference in my books. I wouldn't wish anyone else to get caught, as I did, based on the tactics of others and stupid hype. Since April 2021, I've been out of the share once for a few weeks from the early August 2021 spike to my late September 2021 buy-in. Pity I missed the bottom by not waiting, but hey ho! I've checked my records and perhaps you can check your records of my transactions, just to be on the safe side ;-)
It would take a fool to ignore the environmental lobby, whether it's the Polar Bear in the Arctic, the Great Crested Newt , the Bat, the Badge or a piece of scrubland in the UK (all of the latter ones I know from professional experience in property development). I don't take the wider lobby lightly, respect a lot of what they do and, in most cases, accept that what is happening now is most likely the thin end of the wedge. I'm delighted to confirm that there may be something here we actually AGREE on ;-)

Once again Baldrick you are talking through you're nether region. As a sycophantic Brom follower I would expect little else from you.
For the record, again (!),I am a shareholder here, as I have confirmed on a number of occasions, most recently last week and so this along with the neighbours is MY share.
I am not deramping, merely pointing out that whilst some may elect to pick the positives from a communique and copy and paste certain elements which suit their purposes, I offer a slightly different and perhaps, more balanced, review. A process may still be ongoing, as stated, and I merely point it out.
As to impacts on the northern neighbours, I think you need to check out the geography, land ownership, etc.

"A new ROD for the NPR-A IAP adopting the preferred alternative may be prepared once consultations under Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act are completed."
This statement is less clear and suggests further consultations are ongoing?
If this is the case, it is likely to be the basis of objection, i.e. don't allow further development until the ongoing consultations are concluded.
All a bit of a mess!

Social commentary?
Define 'unwashed'.
When I look at my gas bill, I'm paying a lot more too. I'd like to think I was 'washed' - at least one shower a day and usually two.
Type slower, engage brain, review and edit................

I take the points raised about today's RNS, but the update tells us that progress is being made and in accordance with the planned timeline. A tick in the box.
As to talking up the SP, bring it on! Any PR which reinforces the positives and leads to further articles and interviews can only help IMHO. If anything I think the company ought to be investing in more PR to tell the tale and do anything which might engage the social media crowd to disseminate more widely.

Could it be that Nov '20 was another change of alias?
When you are as vile and abusive in criticism as 'the dragon' (you may need to look it up - Welsh)) and are so frequently brought to task by the moderator and have posts removed, you need to be fleet of foot.
2022 appears to have brought out an outwardly friendly and chatty posting style......don't worry he'll revert to type soon enough, particularly after a dram or two late in the day.

08.28
Can't get a word in edgeways after your prodigious output yesterday!
Signs of nervousness? Filling the gaps in conversation left by others?

Pity the SP isn't based on the amount produced here today......we'd be at a couple of quid already! ;-)

rfarfa - bottle it and get it down the pipeline.............look sharp!

GS,
10 baggers on both?????!!!!!!
What did you have for breakfast? ;-)
Short term hype top here might be 4-5pence IMHO. If you're going to stay in until after the drill success could mean a lot more, but that's a very big call and you'll not be surprised to hear that I still have my doubts on fundamentals.
In the other place? A good result up to drill might be of the order of £2 - £2.50. With only one out of three drill positives after that £4 - £5. Two or all and the sky is the limit. There are some racy numbers being banded about backed by NPV calculation, using more optimistic assumptions than the company itself, but I still think 10 bags is on the optimistic side.
Who knows? You pays your money and takes your choice.
This is AIM and by its very nature is highly speculative and thus volatile, particularly at the Davy Crockett end of the oil industry, out on the wild frontier. You can take nothing for granted. Watch out for the Bears, particularly those on the ramp!
Good luck!

Correct GS 15 million. Apologies......it was a typo.
Holding just under 2 million and in profit again. Sold at 2.8 in early August and bought back in at 1.5 in late September - didn't quite catch the top or the bottom but not to worry, a handsome profit made.
As I said, ride the wave, but beware!
Thanks for your ever present charm.

...........ramp, ramp, ramp................
Ride the hype wave, but know when to get off before it hits the beach, or worse still, the rocks. The beach and/or rocks will being the form of another dud, another capital raise arising from overspend or merely boredom through lack of inertia. The fundamentals haven't changed.............there are few, if any, to rely upon.
Hit oil in their chosen location and you'll need those Polar Bears to carry it to market - it's a long way. What will be its NPV when it gets there? Not as much as the rampers would have you believe, particularly when the SP calculation denominator is 150 billion shares
To anyone new here, check out history. Island Girl is bang on.
