Houses of anti-war people are being marked with a Z in Russia... sounds a bit like how the Jewish houses marked for death by the Nazis.

'Meduza: And what about the letter Z, for example, which people have started putting on the doors of those who oppose the war — is that the first step to “purification?”

Dmitry Peskov: I don’t think that’s any kind of step towards purification. Right now, everyone is very emotional about what’s going on. And you know what? The overwhelming majority are those who support the president emotionally. There are so many people who want to support the president — not just emotionally, but also in their actions. They’re the overwhelming majority.”'

I am only interested in share price performance; many companies add value by selling / issuing shares. The share price was 0.34 when the CLN [aka death spiral] agreement was entered into on the 16th of June last year. It is now 0.09p.

At the current share price, the value of an investment then is down by nearly 75%. The effects of the dilution via CLN seems to have been disastrous.

SS wrote in the last accounts dated 15 April 2021:

'Finally, with the prospect of stable profitable production from Horse Hill, exciting new drilling in Turkey and a return to pre-Covid oil price levels, I now look forward with confidence to a more settled financial picture for the Company as we do everything in our control to bring more value to our shareholders. Our planned activities as well as our continued search for further ‘quality’ international production opportunities ''

So how did that go?

Stable profitable production from Horse Hill - no, production kept declining.
Exciting new drilling in Turkey - turned into a damp squib.
Return to pre-Covid oil price levels - yes, but still not enough oil produced to make much of an impact.
More settled financial picture for the Company - large placing within 3 months; share price down 60% since 15 April 2021 price of 0.3p.
Search for further ‘quality’ international production opportunities - no progress reported.

The tone of last year's outlook was promising... But the outlook was not delivered on. ocelot may want to focus on the future; others might focus on delivery of past outlooks. Fool me once...

SYME's progress seems to be fuelled by paper [aka death spiral financing]; that does not provide enough power for take off.

Why would he go there? The US cannot enforce a no-fly zone against hypersonic weapons...

And that article is dated the 12th of March; at his MRGA [Make Russia Great Again] rally, he promised to root out traitors and enemies of the state.

Great stuff if you are Russian and long to go back to the days of rationing, gulags etc. Nothing like a bit of nostalgia.

Selfish barsteward; he has 24 hour armed guards. He gets paid tens of thousands to give a speech; he could have spent a couple of hours and spent the £50k on a driver and more relief aid, but that would not have got him the spotlight [which will make his hourly rate even higher].

He is taking the proverbial.

A 'bit' more than storage; Amazon is one of the big players - their price list gives an idea:

Troajan,

VAL are still selling hope of a deal; they got lucky that covid brought optimism to the bio sector. They have a suitor on the line who has until the end of March to raise funds to undertake a phase 3 trial of one of their compounds, but this deadline has already been extended once. Cash reserves are also running out.

If they need another placing because there is no deal, it will be at a steep discount to today's price; they should do what most oilers do: raise before results of the deal are known as protection against a bad result.
