GulfSlope Energy Inc (GSPE)

Yes, good point. My thoughts exactly.

If the ‘whales’ are standing pat, then why should we panic? Whatever is going on with these buys and sells at the open are not indicative of any weakness in GSPE beyond the fact that another partner/investor is needed to drill the wells. So ‘old news’ and nothing new here.

In my opinion, the reality is that we are more likely to get good news than not, and the stability of the 1,300 million shares not trading says to me this stock should probably still be up around 2-cents. And all these gyrations may be perceived by the whales as mostly peripheral to the actual value.

Is it possible that market makers are making deals to ‘stock up’ on their inventory at a discount? The shares to be used for resales as the stock price rebounds, or to hold for huge gains if a successful well is drilled. Are these guys the sharks?

I know even less about the workings of those guys than I do about trading, but it occurs to me that for these sells to be happening, buyers are needed. So, the question of ‘who is it that is willing to buy this stock right now’ is still on my mind. And these guys do fit one of the profiles.

But rather than complain, I am content for now to be a minnow swimming in the presence of whales.

Blessed be the whales.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
