...The current manoeuvre (sic) has seen the spread between June
forward paper cargoes---the current basis for pricing--- and July
paper somersault from a 30% discount barely a week ago, to a 30 cents premium now....


What the....? Does anybody out there understand that?

On second glance, however, I suspect that if you knew (I don't) what "forward paper cargoes" were, you'd have no trouble deciphering this sentence. And just because you do not understand something, does not necessarily mean that something nefarious is afoot.

Incidentally, Lee, you're a gas! "Will walk through tarantulas to avoid..." My sentiments exactly!

Bought a wee pharmaceutical issue last week [NEOT], there's another field where the nuts and bolts terminology and science can get pretty furry...

Is this another reference to Viagra or is it related to Strictly Drilling in some other esoteric way that escapes me?
