Desire Petroleum Plc (DES)
April 8th, 2008There’s more to the Falkland Islands these days than bored sailors and penguin poo.
Apparently, there’s oil beneath them thar distant, freezing and remote hills. We say apparently.
There’s been prospecting there for years, but so far not a drop of the black gold. But if there is, Desire’s the one to watch.

April 8th, 2008 at 3:32 pmThe only bit you got right was the Compnay names involved in the Falklands. Oil has been found but at $10bbl it was not considered viable but at $100+ it surely is and it is in the most stable area you could find being under the Union Flag.

The old cliché has it that as far as the stockmarket is concerned one should go away in May and come back again on St Leger Day. What? And miss out on all the fun? Reeling retailers. Broken banks. Crunching credit. There’s so much more than mere capital accumulation, yield and dividend. Not only are there bargains out there but also more than the odd laugh.
