While most JV partners held their ground, HTP - jewel of the San Joaquin - was clobbered. However, checking house positions, it was really only one house who accounted for all the selling. This weekend many may be wondering what happened and where it's going. Only God really knows what's down the hole at ELH and Cal Canal. Being neither a preacher nor a politician, he doesn't tell me much. On the other hand, we do have Grayhairs, S&P, LHG and others plus reports Pakstas manages to scoop, etc, etc. All seem to agree success is imminent at ELH and productive sands could be hit anytime at Cal Canal. Nothing appears to have materially changed this week except investors got a case of the jitters possibly helped by end-of-the-month and/or margin calls. Anyway, it's food for thought over the weekend. FWIW and IMHO, I have high hopes we may hear something from Cal Canal by Monday morning. It's possible and the last hour spike by PYR was interesting. For HTPers, it wasn't a general selloff. Numbers below show the opposite to be true.
