RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:I love the way most here GRASP AT STRAWSHey Gekko,
Ithica is as much a victim of oil pricing as the rest of the industry. However, they certainly did not help the cause by providing misleading guidance on January 12th.
The saving grace is the hedging program which should provide a decent CF until we can get Stella up and running. I work in the industry and the general forecast is near term pressure on pricing with recovery anticipated to be in or about $75 WTI next year.
I suspect we will drift lower with the current supply and demand curve. We do have a few catalysts which might provide some relief in the next few weeks. What we really need is increased transparancy with regards to the progress in Poland.
For the record, I'm still long with about 100K shares. As you state, this is an opportunity to average down if you believe in the long term story.
