After a few days to let steam off....

I have to believe that the greasy sprott boys are up to 

something. They put the squeeze on westfire  and vended in 

guide. I'm not excited about an Ex Penn West puppet at the helm

but maybe, just maybe somethings up.  This smells like a huge 

leverage play. That's why guide corrected so much 

last oil sell off.  Westfire held in.   Either way. This is now a leverage growth 

play. Pure gamble on markets.

IMHO everyone but Sprott and the GO management lost here. I could bet my humble WFE position that WFE management got this deal pushed down their throats and after all their work, sweat and money they have put in, they are probably the biggest losers here....Cormark as advising firm to the Strategic Alternatives process (hm...) not really "arms lenght" with Sprott...Brussa on both boards  ...more
