EXXI

What is the MB's thoughts on this stock? This stock has been getting killed since buying up the old El Paso assets. It's traded below book value for a while now.

I don't know about EXXI specifically, but I work in the industry and there does seem to be a renewed effort on shelf assets.

From what I have read, the spiraling costs of deepwater projects along with the better drilling technology, has caused many companies to look shallow again.

Maybe good assets+low stock price=buyout candidate?

Is it possible that the political posturing around tax inversion is in play here since EXXI is Bermuda based?

Not that I think Cramer is the final word, but he has always thought EXXI was a takeover target.

There are still a good but of difficulties when it comes to the shelf. Most of the stuff on the shelf is old and falling apart, many companies on the shelf are having the same problems as most in the north sea. Not only are the facilities inefficient but since Macondo the feds have stepped up there pain the assness 10 fold. There big thing on the shelf now is cracking down on old equipment and pulling out unused equipment and structures. Doing this is very expensive and is a big reason for a lot of companies pulling out of the shelf and looking at land. Apache was looking at billions for pulling out all the old shite they had on the shelf.

EXXI owns 7 of 11 largest conventional fields in the gulf. Also acquired EPL last year. Their only real risk is that they are 100% offshore. However being offshore experts presents possible growth opportunities with the gov't exploring the eastern seaboard for future drilling. Fact of the matter is they are extremely underpriced. Not to mention several EXXI execs acquired lots of shares last week.

S&P energy sector has been getting hammered because of the slide in oil prices. There's MANY underpriced energy stocks right now. BUY BUY BUY.

On the technical side it is in a free fall. I wouldn't consider opening a long position until I saw a breakthrough of 16.75 with a pull back which held up above 16.75. Even then it would be a short term trade.

Long term it is in phase 3, downtrending. A solid base of support needs to be established, which will take time. Overall, very bearish.

Check their slideshows online. If they ditch the deep gas I would load up on the stock tomorrow.

They bought into alot of old "large" fields on the shelf after the majors dumped them. That doesnt mean there is much oil left in those fields.

And there are some absolute mammoth fields in the deepwater that EXXI is no where around. Those fields are both large and immature.

I'll check back with you Yellowfin. In the interim, sit back and enjoy the yield. EXXI sin't going anywhere. They'll get bought first. I think we'll see some pain before gain, but I'm betting significant gain.

In the last 6 months EXXI insiders have sold 22% of their holdings in the company. Shares sold by insiders is more than 20X the purchases by insiders.

That indicates to me the company's insiders don't believe someone is going to buy the company anytime soon.
