RE: Shorting Co's that seem to be trying to profit from the Israel/Hamas war!?2 Dec 2023 20:50
In my opinion price of oil and gas tends to go up in time of uncertainty.In my opinion not all contracts petrofac has been getting were profitable but the way it has going is you win a profitable contract and that will cancel out any losses. Great if you can keep on getting new business but you are in deep trouble if you don't get new contracts fast enough and I think that is what has happened here. As far as shorters are concerned I do think they have spotted a weakness and have decided to exploit it.Bondholders are on top of priority list and when they are willing to take 50% loss that you should know that they have given up on the hope of getting their money back.
