The tough part is for IOC management to continue to deflect the slings and arrows of the shorts while they hold out and demand an appropriate price for the gas. When the story of this stock is written students will be astonished at the effectiveness of the naysayers.
Naysayers and 23% of the shares held short Art. I've noticed over the years MS's Calio's disbelief as well, including his recent research note.
