RE: Delayed reporting of trades9 Mar 2023 09:26
Had to be a sell based on the buy/sell ratio on the day, if it was a buy, we wouldn’t have retraced rapidly.
Loads of volume over last 2 days and then zippo, strange isn’t it. I suspect our Casper hot money has left for another party. Breakout, ramp to death, wtong news, rusk of sp retrace, wobble, timber, run for the exits. That’s what I believe has happened not as a result of poor news. To have zippo trades next day ? just makes me feel that it was a coordinated effort and all the hot money in followed by all out and move on.
We know that pre the breakout the volume was low and trading was conducted by a small number of PIs. Along came the Divis, sone better news and in cane the multiple transactions and the rise to 8.6p. Healthy volume days most days, a run at double figures thwarted at mid 8s, retrace, go again, retrace, news and not the right flavour, timber. Maybe I’m wrong but with no trades today, says it all.
As stated, I’m focussing on what I know and as far is o can see, little has changed from when we were 3p or lower in November. The good news, barge contract win and very healthy revenue for 24, I’d like to understand when we get paid. 802 flowed oil but no material impact until its commercial. Divis being paid but moved to quarterly. Prod, we assume still at 2400bopd ish taking into consideration the 3000bopd + from BNG. Oil receipts, the same ? Do wgats really changed from 3p to 8.6p ?
All I know is that Casper is in a far stronger position financially and we’ll see 22 financials in May to confirm how much they’ve moved on. Profitable. No debt and more profitable in 24 as a result of CE cash, who knows could be $30m on a 2 well outcome and probably more to come in 25. All the assets are in play as far as I can see and we have 6 or 7 wells to dril in H2, I suppose sone of that depends on 802 and A5 outcomes. Divis continuing and payments not changing, obviously magnitude dependant on drilling /CE charter success. Not going under, geopolitical tensions eased, no pipeline closures and for me, the risks are diminishing and all I see is upside, loads of it.
We pay our money, we take our chance and for me it is looking better by the day and WHI endorse the fact they are starting to build shareholder value. No guarantees re success, especially on the deeps and who knows maybe the selling was as a result of 802 leak or fear of bad news but if that was the case, surely the selling would be continuing in volume today ?
I reinvested my Divi cash Tues evening and yesterday, something I wasn’t planning to do but as always, each to their own.
