We’re all wondering the same thing…and opinions are worthless without anything to base them on. There are those that know what’s going on, but cannot say of course. Some have signed NDA’s…that much I do know. I keep going back to John Lawrence’s text to me, which was way back on April 25:
“Too many good options being made available and our due diligence is heavily underway. I won’t mislead anyway hastily and I can’t publicize the options which will crush our negotiations.”
That was a response to my asking him if an update was coming.
I have heard a rumor there is another entity in these negotiations besides Mabanaft. Could that be what was meant by “too many good options being made available”…?
And what Robertson meant when he said ‘Mabanaft is being very nice to us now?’
I still believe the deal…SOME deal, is going to get done. Timing is anyone’s guess.
