RE:Using Jedi Mind Tricks to Boost Stock Prices
RE:Using Jedi Mind Tricks to Boost Stock PricesI wonder, how is TransCanada going to gain any value from an asset that has contracts in place to run at half capacity.
One thought is that it may be a hedge for them.....if they can't meet their obligations to provide pipelines to transfer products, then they are at risk of losing long-term partners in those pipelines.
If you can offer some service instead of no service, maybe this is a means for them to retain those long-term pipeline partners.....but, could they offer this service at rail at anything but a loss? Not really. Rail is good, but it's certainly no cheaper than pipeline, even if you account for the diluent return costs.
