RE: RNS Monday?3 Oct 2020 12:40
I'm not convinced there will be an RNS on Monday as the EP timings are still technically within schedule. It's just that we were expecting a positive decision yesterday. That said, how can we think that when there are other outstanding questions/issues to be addressed? I've kept my holding as I wanted to be true to my conviction that the EP would be granted and I very much believe it will. That isn't to say that I didn't think about it. Indeed, I had my finger over the (whole amount) sell button at one point. In the end though, I stuck to my beliefs. From a wealth point of view I may well have dropped a clanger. Maybe I could have sold (made a tiny profit) then re-bought once the SP drops into its teens? After all, as a 60yr old, there's more chance of SAE dropping into its teens than I am. That said and as other posts have said, the SP has held up reasonably well considering the scale of the bail out reaction to the delay in EP news yesterday but as I say, is it really surprising considering the sheer complexity of the project? As BM2 rightly says, NRW want to make 100% sure they have carried out their due diligence & assessment and this takes time. After all, there are a lot of people who will oppose the project build. A lot of people whose beliefs are so one-tracked & blinkered they often fail to see the whole picture. NRW know this and will want to be seen to be covering every angle as they are bound to be put under the spotlight following any successful conclusion in so far as we are concerned. In summary then, I've kept hold of my shares but don't blame those that have sold out at this stage. I do believe in all honesty that good sense will prevail and the project will get it's go ahead. I have every faith in the leadership team at SAE to navigate it's way to successful project conclusion but I don't expect an RNS. That said, I think the CEO, Tim Cornellius could make a statement on Monday to appease all remaining existing & new investors... and that includes me. This forum remains the best.
