The countdown is on for the sale of Bluesky Aviation , in the next two weeks we should see the selling of this subsidiary of fortune oil. T noticed today people are beginning to latch on to fortune with a lot of buyers in below 6p , i can't see the price been that when Bluesky is sold, all the shrewdies are moving in to make a mint. What is my price target , my personal opinion is 9p.

looks a very cheap stock right now.

Blresky which is a subsidiary of fortune oil looks like it will be sold for approxiametly 47 million this is a great deal for both fortune oil and china aviation oil with the deal going through in the next two weeks. Fortune will get approxiametly 60% higher price as the deal was funded mainly by shares and china aviation oil share price has risen that much since the deal was first struck and deal terms will not be changed. China Aviation are really pleased also as it gives them a 75%stake in south china bluesky aviation

Not long to go now before the deal goes through on Bluesky, its looks a company making deal for fortune oil , it will help the company move forward rapidly in china.Shareholders won't do to bad either getting a dividend off the sale of Bluesky.

the price went to approx. 9.5p on announcement of the bluesky deal when it was for 31m, and since then apart from the extra 60% on the deal , they`ve announced a JV deal, good solid results. i would be hoping for at least 12-15p at the end of this month.

Thanks for that info dexter , i tend to be a little reserved on price targets but that jv did look a great deal for fortune. I rate the management team highly at Fortune, i believe they are giong to bring this company forward with some purpose.

Countdown is on folks , any day between now and the 30th july for the sale of southern china bluesky aviation , both companies want the deal to go through. Both are eagerly awaiting approval from china.The management team at Fortune have always been confident the deal will go through before july30th.

Agree with dexter.The original bluesky deal looks better and once the approval comes who knows how far it will go.

morning all

Another day goes by, we move a step closer to the Bluesky deal being approved,should be any day now.

It will be very interesting to see how the market reacts to it when it is announced. Could be a little or hopefully.....................A LOT!

bowman - 16 Jul 2004 13:35 - 14 of 451

we have a guide from when the deal was first struck , it did go up to 9.5p on that occasion before it was put on hold.Let see what happens approval has to take place soon

Won't it be in the price already? 9.5 was after recommendation in Investor's Chronicle and it didn't stay there long.

bowman - 19 Jul 2004 17:32 - 16 of 451

The sale of china bluesky aviation has not been approved yet so how can it be in the price ? Secondly when it is approved it will be worth a lot more because the deal involved china aviation oil shares which have gone up nicely and there for when it is approved fortune will get a lot more than the original value of the deal . Also those options they are entitlled to look very promising indeed .

bowman - 21 Jul 2004 17:23 - 17 of 451

Fortune Oil goes up nicely as we get closer to the approval of the sale of Blue sky aviation oil to china aviation oil. Look on thursday for any news.

emailpat - 22 Jul 2004 10:20 - 18 of 451

why thursday?

dexter01 - 22 Jul 2004 11:00 - 19 of 451


morning all,
is this bluesky approval just a formality?,if that is the case i would have expected the price to be a lot higher.i just don`t understand why,with the results being good and a new JV announced as well as the increase they are getting for bluesky there isn`t more of a move upwards.please someone tell me i am not missing something,it`s driving me to drink!!.
cheers,
dexter

market sentiment im afraid !! what shares are going up not a lot !! most of market is flat or trending down switch off the pc come back in a months time as fortune will go up but patience is req as in jkx was 10p now 1.20ish worth waiting for just a bit boring i must admit !!

bowman - 22 Jul 2004 13:04 - 21 of 451

Hi guys , it did appear something was about to happen with Fortune Oil after yesterdays rise. False dawn not to worry only a few days left in the month i can only reiterate Bluesky is purely procedural. China Aviation Oil having being saying all along that the Fortue oil stake in Bluesky is now theirs and both company's are very happy with the deal. Fortune have also said that this is a formality ,why jeopadise their reputation. When it does happen the share price looks set to rise and shareholders will get a slice of the deal in the form of a special dividend. The deal is worth a lot more than when originally on the table.

regards bowman

bowman - 23 Jul 2004 16:02 - 22 of 451

i wish they would hurry along with the bluesky aviation sale, its got to happen before the end of july so there is only a week to go now.

regards bowman
