Irg deputy commander Ali fadavi's comment this evening |
Iran has announced it will strike gas fields /oil fields and energy infrastructure if Israel retaliates for recent missile attack.I suspect Monday will be a down day. I almost pressed the buy button this morning. good counsel prevailed.
any thoughts? |
Well 330k of his own money is not small change. |
I must admit the quote that he is "totally comfortable" with his company's assets being the target of military action made me smile.
A lollipop for sheer chutzpah. And a second one for the share purchase.
But not serious for the CEO of a major PLC. You've really got be better connected to reality for that.
By the way, the current situation is exactly what I meant about the market being quick to react to financial news and slow to react to geopolitical developments. The share price is currently levitating over a huge drop, but could remain this way for some time. |
Yep 330 k skin in the game.
Good show of confidence |
hmmm, 40,000 @ £8.50 for Mathios Rigas. Quite a show of internal confidence IMO. ;-) |
Hardly the ol'97. |
The shorts, of course.
The CEO is spectacularly, hopelessly powerless in this situation. He's entirely at the mercy of forces far beyond his control. All he can do is bluff and hope against hope. |
Who should we believe , the shorts on here or the ceo. |
Roadrunner looked down, realised he was pedalling thin air and not solid ground, and dropped like a stone!
This could end up anywhere - my guess is first stop at 600p. The threat to the gas fields is as real as it comes.
And Iran is threatening to burn Saudi oilfields if their own oil facilities are attacked by Israel - which is almost certain now. Rather than just ENOG, we should probably all be thinking about a possible market-wide crash. |
Ut 836. Someone wants out |
Weird how it took so long. But people are getting it now.
Down to 500p to 600p in a few days? |
reality setting in here. |
Actually, the Iranians tested their new hypersonic weapon amongst the salvo of older ballistic missiles they fired yesterday. It worked. And it hit.
(What is less certain is whether the Iranians have achieved nuclear break-out - for sure they are very close (a week away?) - and whether they have managed to miniaturise a warhead).
Everybody is playing with matches here in the most stupid way. And, IMO, Israel is over-estimating its strength.
But the real danger to a target like the gas fields will be much lower tech. Some kind of drone weapon.
Hezbollah have tried once. Odds on they'll try again. |
Has the facility been shutdown depressurised and hydrocarbon inventory released in prep for downmanning
Who would set foot on the vessel now |
The point you are missing is that Israel has demonstrated its ability to take out incoming missles and this will obviously include defending its oilfields. Also while Israel can hit targets with pinpoint accuracy the Iranians can’t even if they know where they are. |
Surprised by the resilience here. Reminds me of road-runner running off a cliff, and being OK pedalling the air until he finally looks down.
Israel apparently will target Iran's oil refineries in response to last night's salvo of missiles.
What's good for the goose... |
Hardly a train crash this morning. Holding up well. |
Disaster
What will this open at tomorrow |
Short going badly TBTT ? |
Look at the success of the Ukrainians with sea drones - little more than jet skis with 500kg of explosive attached. They've managed to sink 1/3 of the Black Sea Fleet and drive the rest of its ships out of their part of the Black Sea without actually having any ships.
War has changed. I don't know what will happen, but the gas fields are a vulnerable easy to hit big reward target for Hezbollah.
Meanwhile, Iran is apparently about to launch a salvo of missiles against Israel.
And (as Netanyahu knows full well) America is paralysed, because nobody dares crack heads together until after the election for fear of offending various interest groups. |
Tiger, ref post 244, I think most of the answer is that while Israel has first world armaments, inc precision guidance systems, Hezbollah does not.
Eg today is reported they attempted to hit Mossad headquarters in Tel Aviv, but ended up injuring a few civilians in a parking lot. (No different really from every other rocket attack since October 7.)
Hezbollah almost certainly don’t know exactly where ENOG drill rigs are. But even if they did, couldn’t hit them. |
