Jimbo, you are making it. more complicated than it is, when related the company and its acheivements. Try not to be such a condescending a hole. We we will see over the coming weeks who had the better understanding.
Judging from yesterdays presentation and Q and A's - quite a lot. They have a lot on there plate right now and they are working on somalialand too, but again they want everything to be done right which is important in Africa. Money is tight everywhere and low risk and even low bids for are the way to go. Updates are coming in the next few weeks which i believe will be successive positive.
Wel Jim its jjust [lain stupid to be promising dividends at the moment. I prefer safe, back to normal with reduced debt. For me this is a huge buy at the moment - the pipe is reopening in weeks! But am waiting for 65 as this is silly aim....:)
AD i think talk about a raise is way premature with hopefully lots of postive news before then, how much more negative can news get? Don't answer that :) But .... my advice? Buy now as on balance it has to be good from here. .
