Surprised this thing won't move after successive good news.
The only explanation is that the company has to rebuild trust with investors are a long-run of disappointments, not to mention deals that seem more concerned with ensuring directors get fat fees than generating shareholder returns . In this regard, the de-merger of TSV's North American assets springs firmly to mind. Here, we were told that the de-merger would simplify investment and development of our North American assets, and then, later we discover that WBE (after a hasty rename) is getting back into Canadian shale. And still, TSV Monteray continues to provide nice fees to the directors and, I as a shareholder in that entity, have no idea what is going on with MY assets.
