RE:RE:Buying back 52 million shares do you belive if someone was looking at taking ATH out, they would want to do it before the NCIB?
Tax loss selling will be well over by then.
If Oil does keep inching up, it could cost a potential buyer alot more $.
If it is on someones radar, probably be an all stock offer, as new debt is hard to come by.
Dont believe the increase in share count would dilute the puchaser, as you would be adding great long term assets, presumably at a great price and combined would be a much more larger, more valuable company.
