I agree with the "why would they demerge if news was negative" argument - It would be suicide, but stranger things have happened. I think the market has reacted the way it has because of the mention of water in the last RNS, which is understandable. The fact that have seem to have been honest is a bonus.
Also until we get more information on the future plans for resources/energy some people may see the demerger as being risky.
Only time will tell, but the last weeks news has increased my confidence in the company and the gas project.
