Thats exactly my point orvis, there is a distinct lack of city whispers to take advantage of prospective future profits with sey. A speculative or emerging stock is always made on 'behind the scenes' whispers. Nationlization of liquid assets and the re-negotiation of contracts would be very damaging for exploration companies and investors. Kuwait,Algeria,and Libiya spring to mind. Like most investors on this BB, I fail to comprehend why the sp does not reflect prospective earnings. This is why I am looking at the political angle and why the city and tipsters are hesitant.
