cynic, why are you not short again ?

You have been posting how this is a short, how bad it is, how little chance they have of success and yet you are not short ??

That does not really do you any favours if you are happy to slag the company off but have no confidence in what you are writing, as you are scared to short.

cynic - 02 Apr 2012 08:26 - 219 of 1086

because i am not as stupid and greedy as you ......

i made a nice little profit and banked it, for there is always a chance that the present hole will fluke something useful, and sp will then zip away

They have as much chance striking oil as FOGL, both are drilling two wells and both could make a decent find. I'm in both stocks, however have to date made more money out of BOR than FOGL... Lets hope cynic that your not kicking yourself over the next couple of weeks, if the well comes up dry you'll be saying 'told you so' if it strikes oil then you'll be glad you ended your short. Win, win situation when your posting on threads even if your not making any money!

cynic - 02 Apr 2012 10:05 - 221 of 1086

not at all ..... a profit is a profit, but only when it is in the bank ...... fogl has a far better prospect that bor and, if i am not much mistaken, considerably more cash for drilling ..... on the other hand, if bor do fluke it, then all fi stocks will benefit, including rkh which i do hold

Darwin actually has a very good chance of success, higher than RKH's Sea Lion prospect.

This is because Darwin has a "flat spot" which indicates a place where 2 different fluids or gas meet.

A flat spot is like the Holy Grail in wildcat exploration, which is why I have money in BOR and hope for a good result.

cynic - 02 Apr 2012 15:40 - 223 of 1086

and i always thought a dome was the Holy Grail, but what do i know or care

If it does come right : it could be spectacular and I mean spectacular with the sp jumping by pounds....so it's a risk but the rewards might be astronomical...I doubt it but it is possible so as I'm a bit of an oil risk taker : I'm in...so it should get interesting....soon so,....it's either the moon or I shall have to put a pillow over my head and go back to listening to Tifany......

There's that word MIGHT again.....

required field - 02 Apr 2012 21:05 - 226 of 1086

That's a favourite stockmarket word of mine......

dreamcatcher - 02 Apr 2012 21:12 - 227 of 1086

Thats the past tense of may.

Looks like they are getting ready for some major oil finds in the South... LOL ;)

Looking forward to Monday 9th April.

All those that sold on the 6th March for their 30 days CGT can all buy back from Monday 9th April (so Tue 10th). AIM market should be strong next week, at a guess ;)

cynic - 03 Apr 2012 11:32 - 230 of 1086

throw the man a few more straws - he needs them

avsec - 03 Apr 2012 17:23 - 231 of 1086

I think he will need more than 'a few more straws' to get anything out of this BORehole

required field - 03 Apr 2012 17:29 - 232 of 1086

This might just strike it lucky.....

Balerboy - 03 Apr 2012 19:50 - 233 of 1086

lol.,.

avsec - 04 Apr 2012 10:15 - 234 of 1086

rf
'might', 'just' and 'lucky' don't appear too attractive to me - good luck for those who are running this long.
I'll sit on my hands (and wallet) for some solid news. Like Cynic I'm happy for my major holding in RKH to bathe in the reflected glory of whatever the outcome may be.

Proselenes - 05 Apr 2012 08:42 - 236 of 1086

Well, all ahead for next week. Tuesday onwards should see the fun start, its week number 4 next week, of the given 4 to 5 weeks from 16th March RNS, and so news at any time then :)
