announcments are due soon, stock price moving should hit 1.80 easily, very interesting story with new field linked in with an indian oil company joint venture and I understand good results from one area, looks great

Cynic,

It still seems a good bet for you.

I reckon so too, but it was not me who bragged in the first place ..... it was Tman who jumped up and down about sp opening at 130 when dealing restarted ..... now he is prevaricating!

Come on Cynic - 130 pence to be reached on opening day.

This is just sorting out the fine print.

I agree I was a bit hasty on 130 pence open but I think I was a tad excited with that claim of 130 pence on actual opening but you never know - it is possible.

EEL was trading at 4 once - so only a 66% discount.

Surely you don't agree it is possible as well as me?

All those roasted shorters getting burnt on the Bonfire....

Wade may be regarded as dodgy but I don't think he is stupid. Revenge on the people who tried to destroy the value of his company is a dish best served cold - as the suspension lingers.


Also from an ADVFN poster you should look at the BFC RNS and then compare the amount "On-Loan" officially.

Basically BFC has more than of it's shares shorted than are available to be loaned and quite possible more shares have been shorted than are in issue.

Suckers there cannot close their shorts without whipsawing themselves.

You wouldn't happen to have shorted BFC by any chance - Cynic???

All because the aggressive/greedy shorters have got their snouts in the trough.

No thought for the poor people of the North East where the companies operate and that depend on the work for a living.

Exactly the same principles were applied on EEL. Except the EEL is a wriggly creature and this one carries a sting.

Poor, stupid 98.....Burn...that'll learn you to be a greedy b*st*rd.

i shorted BFC very succesfully at 28/30 ... took my profit and would have shorted again at 20 but no one would lend stock.

EEL - Ok; if you want to change the rules a bit, then will happily wager 1000 on 1.30 not being hit on relisting day ..... who will be stakeholder or do I have to trawl back through CHP to check who acted for then in that capacity?

Cynic - Will be back on reopen to take that 1000 from you. Easy money.............

Would not like to be short when this re-lists.......

I don't think it will 1.30 anymore though on relist day.

Maybe 80/90 pence.

whoops! do i hear 1000 winging my way suddenly? .... even 80/90 may prove a goal too far (or something)

Is someone holding the stake money ?

nah! ..... this one wasn't actually officially logged and tman kept changing the rules anyway .... but just a few days ago he was saying how he was looking forward to spending the 1000 i was for sure going to lose

When is EEL going to come back? Wish all shareholders luck.

Great news today.......

LONDON (Thomson Financial) - Equator Exploration Ltd said it will farm out 20 pct of its participating interest in the Production Sharing Contract in Oil Prospecting Licence 323 in offshore Nigeria to BG Exploration and Production Ltd for about 75 mln usd.

It said the completion of the farm out is subject to consents including approval of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corp.

The company had a 30 pct participating interest in OPL 323.

Following the transaction, Equator will have a net economic interest, after recovery of costs, of 9 pct in OPL 323. TFN.newsdesk@thomson.com pmi/slm

it will be interesting to see at what price sp is restored to listing

A conversation reported from another board, with Rand is that they will
relist the same day as the Admissions document which will be by the 31st Aug?
Yes it will be interesting at what price the SP, have no idea myself.Hoping for 50p+
which in the current market would be more than acceptable.
Not done much research on this company,i had kept an eye on it and once it started to move just bought in on the flow at 35p.

It is a bad time to come on to the market with so much volatility

Equator Exploration H1 loss widens sharply; says is a going concern - AFX

LONDON (Thomson Financial) - Equator Exploration Ltd reported a significantly wider loss in what it termed an 'extremely challenging' first half, and said it plans to optimise the value of its exploration assets through a process of farm outs and sales.

The company added it is a going concern with sufficient alternative sources of funding and that a revision of the organisation will be fully implemented by early 2008.

Equator Exploration made a loss of 84.8 mln usd against a restated loss of 3.6 mln usd in the year-ago period, chiefly due to a provision of 70 mln usd against the value of exploration and evaluation assets and a charge of 8.1 mln usd as a revaluation of the warrants issued in 2006.

The company's shares were restored to trading on the AIM following the announcement of the results.

Who was it who wanted to bet Cynic that it would relist at 100 +

The French Connection and Cynic called this right, cynic said 42 at relist.

my offer of a modest 100 bet still stands, or even up to 500 or 1000 if you wish .... do you have the cojones (am currently in sunny spain!)? .... if so, a stake holder can be found on this site ..... if not, then clearly you are all mouth and trousers
tman100 - 11 May 2007 09:51 - 154 of 188
OK Cynic - I'll take your offer. 1000 that the relist is above 70 pence.
