Chesapeake (CHK) Bandwagon

Latest ticker has it at $16.60. With all the media hype surrounding McClendon's sweetheart deals, I'm thinking CHK has the potential to pop. Albeit they have major cash flow problems, this stock would be $25 easy if all the CEO conflict of interest news didn't hit the fan.
No way do I see CHK going bankrupt, nor do I see them getting taken over. I think McClendon will ultimately step down sooner than he would have planned.
Should I put all my retirement money in CHK?

Just completely ruling those two out eh? Like the arbitrary $25 reference as well.

At one point last week, they turned the stock ticker on our homepage off. 
There was a nice two page thread on chk last week, and I must say that none of the responses made me feel all that comfortable as an employee.

That's funny. I honestly thought about selling off AAPL at 620/630 and going in with most of that to CHK around 21/22. I don't feel so bad about holding AAPL and it dropping as much as it has since CHK wouldn't have been any better.
I still keep up with CHK and I am way too scared to jump on it. Most of it has to do with natural gas prices and a little to do with McClendon.

CHK didn't hedge their bets and now they are paying. Hope they can come out of it alive.

The irony of not hedging your bets when your CEO ran a secret hedge fun.

When I was out below San Antonio, there was a major shift from NG to Oil around late Dec. Maybe earlier. Seems like they should have made that move sometime before that. Their NG reserves don't do much good when you have warm winters and $2/cu ft prices.

I actually like that idea A LOT. Also a finance major working for HAL. However, I'm never in a stock for the long term (> 3 months for me) and basically like to gamble on the qualitative sides of things. I do think they have substantial oil and liquids rich reserves in the Permian they might have to part with...Your diversification strategy is ingenious...I do that all the time with .001 penny stocks (inar.pk all the way!).

20% CHK
20% Any Russian quasi-sov bond trading at a premium.

You guys should really think through your investments with a scenario analysis approach
20% Gold/silver/palladium/galvanized tin - hedge against FIAT Currency. Doesn't matter what it is, just no FIAT.
20% Anheuser Busch* - Anti Cyclical
20% Bomb Shelter/MRE's/Tin Foil - For when Obama
20% Small Arms Rifles and Ammo - for when that socialist nigerian America hating Mooslum tries to take my guns.
20% boats - Zombies can't swim.
20% black tar heroine - Inelastic Demand, FTW
*I meant an indexed fund of beers produced by AB, not the stock.

Done intentionally.
Such a full proof scheme deserves a quarter turn of leverage.
