they'll hit the mother load shortly thereafter

I think you'll be ok.

Tullow looks to become official JV partner and operator by year end. Great news, as is the recent Chevron/Noble deal right next door which tempers some doubt about the geological play from critics.

Markets are closed today and probably Tuesday due to Hurricane Sandy...hopefully this news brings price above $1 prior to 11/11 maintaining NYSE listing. Otherwise we will see a reverse split or maybe be granted extension period due to the deal underway. Still plenty of short interest to be covered before deal is secured.

RISK:
Still some muslim tribal tension between Malinke (35% of population) and Peul (40% of pop). Conde is supported by Malinke and elections have been delayed....now expected early 2013. Conde has US/French support and is refered to as the "Mandela" of the ivory coast considering previous decades of oppressive military rule. Shareholders need him to secure re-election to promote the venture and ultimate objective- commercial discovery (assuming the JV is inked up soon).

If Conde wins, it will attract a lot of international investment over time in mining/exploration and promote the much needed general infrastructure/economy building. All necessary for successful production and sale of oil years down the road.

As stated many times, this a speculative frontier venture and investment in an emerging country. It is a venture in which success will be measured in years, not weeks or months and certainly not by emotional posts on internet message boards.

Good luck to longs!

Reimbursement cash and drilling carry...nice

thank ****. I might actually see a profit on this one.

Glad this deal got done. Hoping we can get back to 5 bucks!!! lol

I just need it to approach 2 bucks to break even. Trying to decide if I ditch it all or keep a little to play.

already back under a buck!!! looks like the market doesn't like rays deal!

I wish staff would ban you, you are more emotional than any BSC woman i have ever seen. Just f-ing chill.

did i post something that wasnt true?? take for frustrations out on third. he bumped this guess after what he posted today. Much like his original prediction...the market disagrees with his brainwashed opinion.

HDY reaches a deal with a major oil company to compensate them for past drilling and covering future drilling and it's down almost 3%? Okay.

I haven't held this for a while now. Just a casual observer.

Maybe the deal was already priced in. After all, it was only a couple of months ago that the stock was at the 60 cent mark. A 50% return in three months isn't too bad !

The market isn't responding well to the deal! Not sure what is going to happen in the near future. But Ray's Magic.... isn't so magic afterall. Stock is at 80 cents and sinking yet again.

stock is getting beat down again. Looks like it won't hit a buck for a year or so! Can you say reverse split???? disaster.

htown - I'm super scared about this stock right now, but you seem to be in complete control of your emotions. Obviously you must know precisely what is going on with this stock. Would you mind helping out a poor, uninformed, clueless investor like myself? I got into it thinking it was the prototypical stable, mature stock that would shed off dividends for years to come...only to find out it's an exploratory drilling company that has turned into a "disaster" (to use your insightful words). What should I do with my shares???

^^

you are too funny. Its people like third who u should be complaining about. He needs to take his ray blinders off! Third has lost so much money that he may be in a homeless shelter...
As for me, the conf call was a joke. Ray focused on talks about tullow, and he dodged talks about stock price! oh well... I shouldn't be shocked at this point.

Wish I had been following it this morning and bought when it went below 60 cents.

^^
still buy it. With your purchase history you'll be out all of $1.98...

buy buy buy!! Bottom hammer!

buy buy buy! It finally hit my 50 cent target

wow.. I just read this thread. I feel terrible for a lot of you guys. It's honestly stuff like this that makes me really question ever investing in the market.

Uhhh... TL;DR for the entire thread.

Cliff's Notes Please.

Thanks, I'll hang up and listen.

Thirdcoast recommends that people buy stock in a small startup oil company with lots of brainpower but little working capital.
Htown puts entire life savings into said stock.
Company drills for oil after many delays and finds none.
Stock price crashes.
Htown whines incessantly.

I probably left a few parts out.

You left out about 30 pages of other people beetching at thirdcoast when the well was dry. And don't forget that Jim Cramer recommnded this stock when it was at $3 too.

Much better than the 1600 posts, thanks!

Time to load up on some more?????

Go big on 125 shares this time. Go for it!

This is the most classic recommendation ever. Third may be on suicide watch. Worst pick in the history of this board. Funny thing is that he won't admit it yet!!!! He thinks the tullow deal was good!!! Lolol. But Ray says it won't send well for shorts.... LOLOLOL.

Is this a screaming buy at .60 ?????????

I bought 800 more at .6 last week. I'm done buying this dog now.

This thing's chart looks like a classic pump 'n' dump; around a buck around mid-2010, soars to over $7 briefly two years ago, then crashes back to its historical levels in early 2012.

Someone made a ton of money on this turd, too bad it sounds like none of them post on this board.

someone just hit the nail on the head. Most on this board lost their assss off. Third will goto his grave broke because he is too emotionally involved with ray leonard.... who is a loser.

What are the chances it goes back to a buck?

FYI, for those still accumulating cheap in anticipation of Tullow’s exploration of the deep submarine fans, to begin within the next 12 months.
