Fair post Madmaxium, and it's a understandable assumption / thesis for those new to the company to suggest that all of the negativity is from burnt fingers. For the record, I profited handsomely from BPC just prior to its merger and the creation of CEG, which I think was just rewards for having followed bpc/ceg for more than 10 years.
But whether those here have been (repeatedly) burnt or else simply enjoy following the company's spin, they'll be negative on the company for very sound, rational reasons, and because they know what has played out before and where the company is now.
I do actually think this share could be a good trade at some point, once more is known about the status of the litigation, as there's nothing like a smell of a one-off big drill to get the punters and traders in. (Ignore all the work on the nodding donkeys, as CEG and its predecessor have been spinning that line since they started).
But that possible big drill - or even a sniff at it - is way far away on the horizon, and in the meantime the pattern of RNSs over the past 6 weeks is following the well worn path of reducing the overhang in order to line up fresh finance (aka subscription to the brokers at reduced price, to flip)
The current situation here is that the pump and dump has been a failed attempt. In part that's because folks are buying into the massive overhang. So you need to ask yourself whether twitter boys can get the volume up enough for the wider PI base to join in the pump, and whether they are still pumping because they believe enough volume can move the inertia of the overhang, or whether they are simply underwater themselves and need an exit point.
Not saying it's not a worth a small gamble on a spike from, say, a positive litigation news or some news about more bucket shop mates buying in. But anyone buying in for anything more than a pump and dump spike (say, positive litigation news) knows nothing about this company.
