RNS - "the well slugged at up to 3,000 barrels per day"

So, how much oil has been sold so far? A million barrels; hundreds of thousands; tens of thousands; thousands?

It will take 50kgs of mRNA to inject everybody in the US with the Moderna or Pfizer vaccine - call it 750m doses as both require 2 injections.

They will be selling the drugs for well over $100m per kilo; suddenly gold sounds very cheap.

The latest This Week in Virology podcast discusses the vaccines from Moderna and Pfizer. The virologists who present the podcast are very positive about the prospects

A - I do not trust "a nationally syndicated conservative talk show host".
B - The weight of punters money changed the betting when the votes began to be counted. Most bookmakers now derive prices from Betfair as you can use their API to automatically quote odds that can be arbitraged as bets are struck. The size of the market shrunk significantly after voting closed which meant emotion driven betting had a significant effect.

The Bloomberg article below explains the influence the illiquid betting markets had on futures at the time:

Nice try but I used to be an arbitraging bookmaker, so I do have a reasonable knowledge of betting markets and patterns.

'Fill your boots'

Most shareholders are so far underwater you would think their boots were filled with concrete.

Betfair still taking election bets - now over $1 Billion matched.

There is no estate duty on farming land - time for a change as rich industrialists are buying land as a tax haven and pricing actual farmers out of the land market. It is a scandal that gets little attetion.

I have no interest in diamond mining but something to bear in mind if you have shares in a mine that produces diamonds for industrial use:

"In The City Special Investigation - By Slicker" [highlighted in the magazine delivered yesterday]

It is a free download from the Private Eye website:

Yesterday's discussion from the Knowable Magazine is now on YouTube; around 30 minutes in they discuss the known effects of Covid on patients undergoing immunotherapy.

I expect Boris to get a tongue lashing before being allowed to speak but he just invited Boris to begin his ramp - Sir Lindsay must be sick and tired of reminding him to mind his manners. I will be writing to the Speaker to complain at his lackadaisical work ethic.

I saw a reference to them in an RNS this morning - anybody know them?

"JP Jenkins is a trading platform for unlisted companies. We provide a solution that enables these companies to allow their existing shareholders and prospective investors to trade in their shares."

The Speaker will be frothing at the mouth as this is another policy announcement made in the Media, not the House.

Where does all this money come from - I am on a tax paying strike (nearly 7 years and they have not broken me yet).

It does matter - it shows that rightback is still centre forward in a defensive position watching out for an attack from the midfield. No shareholder wants an attacking deramper to sweep past the goalkeeper and get an unchallenged attack into the goal.

"It's amazing how some people on this forum know how to drill an oil well better than BP and SHELL but they probably couldn't make a cup of tea."

I thought that the majors had a good look at the Gatwick Gusher decades ago and decided it was not commercial then. UKOG have hardly made a financial success exploiting the reserves yet?

Jim 3 January "current personal average at 201p."

Excellent share forecaster; those shares are only down 50 percent instead of 70 percent.

I was flipping through this morning's RNSs and noticed an announcement about an unlisted security traded on JP Jenkins - a new firm to me, so I had a quick look and noticed that CAP Energy's shared are traded on that platform:

MAFL own approximately 2% of CAP Energy

Not good - will Tesla joining the S&P 500 next month be the straw that breaks the camels back?

Turkey dippers will be getting cheaper - not much demand for big factory turkeys this year as Covid has stolen X-Mas. Bernard Matthews just processing them into mush.
