RE: Re: Speculative moneyYou are correct catkin, but that was before the financial crisis and markets were way higher, so most stocks were much higher than today. Depending on who the investors are, there are also a lot more junior energy stocks in the market today with potential for billion barrel resources. Some examples include WZR & PMI and a couple others I won't mention now but I guess the stock can go as high as traders/investors bid it up. Didn't realize my post would have hit a nerve with some. All I'm saying is it's highly unusual for a company to be worth over half a billion $ in today's market without any exploration well even started. I'll leave it at that.
