RE: Petro Matad – A company still priced like an explorer, but operating like a producer14 Oct 2025 10:24
The bottom line for me is that when a company is still an explorer, and dependent on frequent raises, the only safe tactic is to dip in and out on any spikes, which are usually triggered by an RNS.
Otherwise you can end up frequently averaging down and still ending up underwater, as you were trying to catch a falling knife.
Once the company moves to being revenue producing and self funded, then you can look at a buy and hold strategy.And ideally you would have bought in at or near the low - however it's notoriously difficult to call this exactly right. How many people bought into RR when it hit the low of 30p in 2020 for example ?
