I don't want to sound too optimistic but if you look on the chat boards and indeed Twitter for copl the last week or so you will notice that no ramping at all has taken place which at least means there is no pump and dump crew at work here to artificially raise then crash the price.
As someone mentioned on ADVFN this morning..... "we could see BOND NEWS or update of sort Monday onwards ''JUST A THOUGHT'' looking at the trading pattern.. up 4.5% WED up 14% THUR drop back 4.5% Friday morning got it back by 2pm, and bounce 12% before close, and could have been up a lot more, if MM would let it go LOL'' but they do hide it away sometime, to stop the herd smelling the green grass, and jumping in for a quick buck".
The fact is that the SP has been completely bombed out when just over a week ago it tanked to 0.05 after Q3 results upon expectations of an imminent further placing.
Wouldn't it be great if it turned out not to be the case and alt financing along with performance bond was secured to get this project back on track? After all it's about time and given how attractive the opl 226 prospect is supposed to be it would be madness for no progress to be made especially after all the technical work carried out behind the scenes to prove up the prospect.
An article I posted the other day had a relevant quote from the Nigerian National Petroleum Corp....."NNPC Group Managing Director, Mele Kyari, highlighted that deepwater exploration activities in the country needed to be escalated."
IF and I say IF the bond and financing are finally sorted then upon announcement I would expect the SP to gap up to at least 0.15 on open and rally towards 0.5p or more in the days after. If a further placing is issued however I would expect the SP to remain around 0.05-0.06p area for the time being. However from the way this has risen gradually over the last few days I am slightly hopeful at least that it's the first scenario we are looking at. It's certainly about time and would be a very welcome development for long term holders substantially under water. Gl
