That's funny, coma. You wait till your first guess expires and then ask for another one? What if everyone did that? Happy anniversary but on behalf of dprussky it's a "no"!!
You just wrote exactly what I was thinking, billboardguy.
Scargs, Orson isn't on dprussky's list so he must have submitted his guess after the closing date of 1st March so it doesn't count. I know you went for 27th March but I said Bigones was "in the running", which was intended to suggest he was in with a chance, not that he was a dead cert to win. I was trying to make a joke about how funny it would be if he won. Made myself laugh!
Hey WetWater, we may all be wishing we were dead if the rumour about 26th March turns out to be true as BigOnes is in the running to win the sweep in that case. Heck, that would almost be as bad as if they decided to leave the moratorium in place!! (I am joking, obviously, but there would be a certain irony to it as I'm sure we all agree). As to Close having spoken about no drilling till 2019, I remember reading his comment at the time and feeling certain he was just playing the game and it was a political statement rather than actual intent. So I took it with a grain of salt.

Wouldn't it be ironic if the lame duck we'd pretty much written off turned out to be the goose that laid our first golden eggs. Amazing to think that we may well be the proud owners of two golden geese!
WW, as you say, we have seen what no news does to the SP. The SP hit a high of 36.5c last March. We can probably expect it to hit that again once the moratorium is lifted. If the SP hasn't yet slid down to 19c in almost a year with no good news, why should it slide to that level in the coming year - a year in which we can expect a huge buzz around the company, (even in the unlikely event of no drilling - I say unlikely because I thought you had heard from your friend of a friend that preparations were quietly ongoing). There's going to be takeover interest that's for sure and that alone should keep the price buoyant. To put it mildly. It's a moot point anyway because I think the likelihood of absolutely no drilling at all this year is pretty much zero.
WW, you've said a couple of times now that the SP could slide to 19 cents if the ban is lifted but there's no drilling till 2019 and this is probably the only thing you've ever said I don't agree with. To be honest, I don't really think you agree with yourself either, I think you're just being placatory to the "small one". Everything to do with Falcon is like a ghost town at present, with Philip and Origin keeping stumm for obvious reasons. My take is that once the ban is lifted, be there drilling or no drilling this year, there'll be a charm offensive on Falcon the like we've never seen before. Malcy will have the stock as one of his annual picks, RBC will double their guide price and there'll be a constant stream of press releases which will keep the anticipation going throughout the year. Sure the price would drift down without fracking next year but I think the current down-trickle is more to do with lack of buzz around the company than anything.
Does anyone from the UK hold FOLGF in a US brokerage account? If so, which one? Thanks.
