RE:RE:RE:RE:Spread Brent - WTI at $12 and risingI wonder if PTA gets lumped in with the baskets of WTI producers because it trades in Canada? Hedley or someone is probably going to say that of course investors are not so stupid. A lot of stocks are owned by large institutions that own "baskets" of them and don't look at them individually much. If they knew what they owned, no would would dump 6 mil shares on a story about an old scam stock with the same name.
Here's proof that dopey stuff happens. I trade FXENP which is the preferred convertibel stock for FXEN. FXEN is a Polish Natural gas producer. Very little exposure to oil prices. Marketwatch put it on some dopey list of "oil" stocks that woudl rally if oil went up and it nearly doubled in a couple of weeks (since pulled back a bit). Here's the dopey news story by the thestreet about how a Polish natural gas producer was rallying on higher oil prices.
I really wouldn't be surprised if PTA is being valued as a WTI producer because it trades in Canada.
