RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:BTE vs MEGGoing back, but Husky couldn't buy MEG. It was due to larger long term holders who understand the value of MEG. I expect an aquisition would still not go through unless it fully valued MEG's future. Probably safe until there is a re-rating in O&G, until then other companies will be the aquistion target.

This is my biggest concern in owning MEG. One of the megacaps is going to swoop in and take them out for 25% premium leaving all kinds of returns on the table that would have been realized in the next 18 months.
MEG is an easy double from here by next year if WTI holds - not increases, just holds above $70.
