RE:RE:Spe would be 7.50+ today if not for crooked managementI believe it's two parts.
1. People around town are very convinced the deal will happen so that removes some uncertainty.
2. Brent vs WTI differential increasing, this is positive for VET being that 3/4 of their production is either Brent/Brent+ priced (Australia and Euro Oil, up 10.4% from april 16 vs wti 7.3% from april 16 ) or Brent linked (re: Europe gas pricing is often linked to brent prices, TTF up 9.1% since april 16). WTI/Brent Diff has gone from mid 2's -3's in late march/early april to around $7 today.
