Credibility gone; timeline stretching out indefinitely
Yes I am changing my tune on GASX with this long-awaited press release that was supposed to announce production. I still think they will eventually get it done, but I have taken profits on 50% of my position due to the indefinitely stretching timeline and declining credibility.
For how many months has the ceo been promising production any day now? Right up to a couple of weeks ago, when he said it will be 'sooner than you think.' This habitual over-promising and under-delivering seriously damages the company's credibility. It's like they are just finding out as they go along what it takes to start production - shamefully amateurish for a supposedly experienced operator.
At least they went into a little more detail on the remaining steps (which I will bet is still an incomplete list), but some of the items are indefinite in terms of timing. The biggest shocker is the statement about "currently completing the consultation process with the communities located in the line of the pipeline." Likely interpretation: (i) they started the negotiation process about 2 years too late; and (ii) some people have realized now that they have the company over a barrel and can hold up the whole project indefinitely over the compensation issue.
We are still months away from delivering gas and getting paid. As I said, I am not out of this, but I have lightened up as there are other promising alternatives in waiting.

I think the only credibility in question is that of the last 3 posters. Based on your posts it tells me it's a great time to accumalte more and take advantage of the drop over the past 2 days.

Get in today. With NG prices where they are and just the momentum of the GASX chart it's going back up. Buying on the dip. Thanks for the shares.

BTW I picked up some ALV while waiting for GASX to get its act together. Market cap of ALV is still lower at this point.
