Repeating an opinion doesn't make it any more valuable or factual. The statement you made was that it was effectively the only deal in town, that's slightly different to you then saying its the only effective deal in town...but I'll put that down to a misunderstanding of basic semantics rather than a broader lack of comprehension. Either way, whether you believe SAMA is the only effective deal, or effectively the only deal...remains unfounded.

I never suggested there were many deals - rather I suggested it's a great leap into a bitter black hole to suggest that there are no other effective, or effectively no other financing arrangements available to Alara. By all means, continue to suggest there are no others - or even that there were no others - however you do your credibility a great disservice to suggest that you (we?) would know about them. Much like trading volume, deals are relative and are the greatest deal on earth, until the next deal comes along.

Volume is relative, but I guess you already knew that. Given the numerous postings about (il)liquidity of this particular stock, the T20 accumulation, and material announcements relating to the Al Tasmin equity, appointment of EP Contractor, and €60m financing arrangement(s)....this 3rd highest daily volume in 6 months...relatively speaking...makes any suggestion of it being pathetic quite amusing.
