That will be far more important than a day or week one way or another. Again, people that are far more familiar with these negotiations than me seem to be pleased with the process and I know there has been plenty of dialogue between the parties. Hession and team are working hard.Yes, agree. His words per the transcript are:
"Yes. I’m hopeful that that will be finalized no later than January and actually, let me be cautious no later than January. Let me try and continue to under promise and over deliver."
I took those words to mean he (at that time) was hoping the process would be completed this month; certainly not a "promise". I could care less if the settlement goes into Feb to get the right deal. In fact I am planning on it possibly not happening this week, and others should too at this point. So with that in mind if you can't stomach a possible drop in pps (if you think that's what will happen), then trim here and buy after "the fall" or later. If you don't think pps can ever recover from any such fall or it will be a long time, then sell all or most and plan accordingly. But it's Wednesday in that part of the world and that doesn't leave much time. If you can't stomach a possibe drop or even the thought of it, then act now.
palm, my guess is you will not see this but I hope some one can share it with you. To make a statement like MH did and then say he wants to continue to under promise and over deliver he gave the belief that this was in fact a far out time expectation (Like CAC said). That was not cautious and it is not over delivering. He has a few more days and I hope he does.
