Stans Energy Corp V.HRE.H

My 2 Cents

[nolancole]

I've been a STANS supporter and investor since January 2011. I've voted my confidence in STANS and my belief they will prevail in this case with my continued accumulation of shares for 8.5 years. I'm also a former semi frequent poster on this board. Thank you to a number of respectful long term posters of positive... and even constructively critical opinion. This is the last opinion I will share. I believe the Arbitration Tribunal met their commitment to render a decision to both parties by July 31. If the parties had been informed of a decision delay I believe STANS would have shared that update. If the decision was shared with the parties, and Kyrgyzstan was victorious, we would have heard loud and clear by now. If the award was significantly or completely in STANS favor... the parties would now be in settlement discussion which would benefit both parties. With recent news of the former president's corruption charges... Kyrgyzstan has additional motivation to demonstrate corruption is a past... not current issue. I base this opinion on a lifelong career in litigation. We will soon have our answer.

From what I gathered from your post you believe Stan's is in neogiations to settle because we won? I firmly believe Stan's will win the case based on everything that has happened since 2016 but if we won I don't understand why there's no press release stating that because that would be huge for the SP. If  you have had a lifelong career in litigation is it common for these

Yes my speculation on settlement discussion is based on a decision favorable to STANS. As for a decision in The Republics favor being announced... it would have been The Republic making that victorious announcement. ...and Yes... based on my experience... a favorable decision for STANS would absolutely be a catalist for settlement discussion to expedite closure. "Holding out" for long

I have also been averaging down since 2011 and totally agree with nolancole. Announcing a 9 digit award would have put the Kyrgs on the defensive and made negotiations all but impossible. Not to mention years of further litigation to lay claim to Kyrg assets. Much better to be a humble winner and work on a settlement that both sides win something. Stans wins cash, assets and maybe even an iron

The Republic is different from bolivia because like nolan said they HAVE to show that the corruption is a thing of the past or else they wont get foreign investment. If they keep treating companies/investors like they treated Stan's then they will get no foreign investment and thier economy will decline.

This has been the same argument for some time,and a settlement in our favour with Stans is not going to change it over night,how the settlement is reached is the important factor as in the past they have regected the rulings,a rejection again will tell the investing community nothing has changed,let us wait for the response,but i still feel this is a sell the news trade but i would welcome a

I believe this time is different. The jurisdiction question was settled before the case began and this PCA decision is supposed to be final. If this is indeed the case then the Kyrgs have no legal moves left.

[bobodolen123456]

But,again how will they pay,their only option is to settle for a lower amount and reinstate the license,in fact guarentee the license if they are looking to look for more outside investment,this is the option that concerns me as that will make Stans worth more than the spike in share price from positive news,making options granted to staff  more suspect

[TrickyGame]

If we get the license back with a guarentee the republic wont put a stunt like this again potentially HRE could easily go back up to the $2.50- $3 range easy.

[bobodolen123456]

The question is how to play it as a license will likely not be in the settlement,that is likely to follow at a later date if it happens at all,if you sell on the news how long do you wait before you buy back in and not miss another halt with final settlement news

I agree i thought this was  the court case they could ask for,if we just get a mine and some cash to get it going that would be a Great start and a even better end to all of legal battle GLTAL"s

[timeforawinner2]

sorry i meant to say the final court case there was no way to appeal this one and was binding maybe i am wrong

[TrickyGame]

According to wikipedia, a PCA decision is final and the Republic went to the English Court in 2017 to have a judgement in favor of Stan's at the Tribunal set aside. The English Court rejected it so if we get a favorable judgement technically the republic  should have no recourse. But I'm not a lawyer so  maybe there's a loop hole somewhere. I hope not

[TrickyGame]

Ok. So based on your experience with litigation how long would you say we have until Stan's puts out a press release about this ? FYI a poster here emailed Boris around the time the SP started dropping from $0.10 and Boris said he would have an update from the courts soon. That was August 7th I believe. Does that factor into your speculation?
