First day without the possibility to trade E shares in Sweden and this is my view on it. From 5/9 50% of the E- shareholders left Enquest. Approx 30 miljon shares were sold (net sales) with a vaue of between MUSD 5 - 6 (A small percentage of total shares and less than Es oilsales for one day).
The 4000 shareholders at Avanza that didn't sell are either LTH or people who do not care. We can now only sell shares if we call our broker and ask him to sell/buy and we also need to pay courtage that is more expensive. This willl clearly reduce the interest in E and reduce the turnover. I think most retail owners will do nothing and wait for "good times", whenever that will happen. I also think the bots are crying in Stockholm since they took care of 80% of the trade before E decided to close down Stockholm. We look forward to information about any M/A, Enquest Producer, Management plan for shareholder returns, etc etc.
