    I don't know about the next 6 months.....

    I hold long term [got back in, in the last quarter of 2011], but given its volatility, also trade the stock.

    Project delays, gas prices, etc., have not helped this energy stock, but I like it long term.

    When you look down the right column in the TLM stockchase page (link below), none of the analysts have much of a consensus. Very difficult to figure out - but - awesome price to buy as a value play...no?

    on the negative side: global properties too far-flung. Global footprint is messy. Too much gas. Large debt. Crappy options. Dumb pie owns shares. These are all negative factors

    1. Billions in assets will be sold.

    2. Dumb gal owns shares too, so I'm definitely in good company.

    Severely undervalued; definitely a value play IMHO!

    It does look interesting and appears undervalued. I usually look for a better dividend than this one offers. Although there has been a certain amount of insider buying there has been net selling by insiders. Looks like some officers are buying and selling within a trading range. I'll continue to keep an eye on this but I think if I'm in the mood to take a bit of a "fly", I will opt for ECA over this one.

    tlm options have historically been crappy. Sadly i speak from experience.

    tlm is essentially a US co now - div in USD, share volume hi in US markets - so one would go to US options.

    i'd have to doublecheck everything but i think if one really wanted to put on a bullish gassy option play one would go to eca or chesapeake ...

    I don't have six months to wait. But I think it's a good buy around $12.

    I'll be looking to get out tomorrow if the markets are pointing downward.
