RE:RE:Bankers Petroleum Ltd. (BNK) Receives “Outperform” Rating Their 'Hold' recommendation (because the upside is only 63.5% at their own target price) is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma. Tender/Buy with a target of $2.20 is far more common. And more logical. Almost every share traded in the last 6 months, and most of those traded in the last 9 months are in the hands of someone for whom $2.20 is a worthwhile profit. For many others it is a chance to minimize their losses. That's 100s of millions of likely yes votes and there are just 261.6 million shares outstanding. So $2.20 by the end of June is a high probability scenario. The main risks are Geo-Jade getting it's financing & approval. Strong oil despite continuing oversupply may help to motivate them & their financiers. -GLTA
