Hornbookco, I am very sorry to hear about your cancer. I will keep you in my prayers. My wife just got over cancer, since they caught it very early, but she did have major surgery and reconstruction. It was a difficult 6 months, but we feel blessed.
If any of the Bitters read this, see CB, there are people here with real world problems and issues.
Now let me answer your question. I worked with guys like CB all my life. Some entrepreneurs are interesting and they make the world go around. They can be intimidating and know it all's, but I've come to appreciate/anticpate their moves.
I review my hole card every day as to why I got into this company. The market today for O & G investments is 10X better than when I got into AENP 2 1/2 years ago. My goodness, look at where we are and where we are going.
Not to waver. I think this country is in a box and sub prime mortgages was just the fuse. There is no easy fix to this problem. We have real estate problems. We now have credit problems all over. Commercial real estate in wavering. Heck our whole financial systems is in trouble. Our solution, lower rates. Bad answer. Our dollar is crashing and oil, commodities and mineral resources are rising causing inflation to explode.
You see, I said oil. That is good for us, supposedly. Couple the financial problems with world tension, peak oil issues and exploding demand in the Far East and we have high oil price support.
The value in AENP has not gone away, just manipulated. I believe, just as Contractor has stated. I too am optimistic in the short term when things are disclosed.
I said this before, CB has had this thoroughbred off on some country fair, harnessed for kiddies horse rides.
CB, it is time to bring this thoroughbred to Churchill Downs and show its stuff.
Hornbookco, may God bless you in your days ahead. IMO, I believe we will all be blessed very soon. For your sake, mine and all the others who have endured this saga.
